Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,

In a still very weak market environment, we closed the first nine months of 2019 along our planning. An ongoing low demand in the automotive and consumer electronics sectors, the trade conflict between China and the USA as well as uncertainties in European politics led to declining industrial goods markets and purchasing manager indexes. Consequently, the German image processing industry recorded a significant decrease in business in the first eight months. With a sales growth of accumulated 6 % Basler developed considerably better than the market. This growth was supported by the acquisition of Silicon Software GmbH and the takeover of the Chinese distribution business from MVLZ Sanbao Xingye. Although the integration processes of both companies are running successfully, they led to a significant surplus load within the organization.

Despite the weaker market conditions, we remain committed to our investment plans in order to continuously increase our competitiveness and sustainably gain market shares in existing markets as well as open up new application fields. Thus, in the past quarters, we continued to implement growth relevant measures in development, production, and sales without major restrictions, however, we adjusted the number of new hirings to the market situation. At a pre-tax return rate of approximately 11 %, the willingness to invest currently still leads to a slightly lower profitability than the medium-term target of an average pre-tax return rate of at least 12 %. We see the computer vision market's long-term growth to be foreseeably positive. Although it is affected by the currently weaker market phase in the short term, growth is not endangered. We significantly increased the company's technology expertise, the product portfolio and our direct market presence with the acquisitions of Mycable GmbH and Silicon Software GmbH as well as the takeover of the business of our Chinese distribution partner (MVLZ) on January 1, 2019, and a considerable increase of the number of employees in marketing, sales, and development. In the current financial year, we are particularly focused on the successful integration of over 250 new colleagues that we gained due to hirings and takeovers in the past 18 months.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

Despite the difficult market environment, sales increased by 6 % and incoming orders by 9 % compared to the first nine months of 2018. The balanced ratio between incoming orders and sales indicates a stable business level for the fourth quarter.

At the end of August 2019, the VDMA (Verband Deutscher Maschinen- und Anlagenbau, German Engineering Federation) reported a sales decline of 12 % for the German manufacturers of image processing components. According to VDMA, incoming orders in the industry also decreased by 12 % in the same period. Thus, the Basler group's business developed considerably better than the market. Compared to the previous year, third quarter sales increased by 25 % and incoming orders by 19 %. In the third quarter, the pre-tax return rate increased again and amounted to 14 %.

Product Launches

In the past months, the portfolio of the successful ace camera series was extended by various models. These new models are based on high quality and modern CMOS image sensors of the Sony Pregius-line.

Moreover, the next generation of the ace camera was launched on the market. Initially, four models were launched. In the upcoming years, various new products will be developed based on this innovative hardware and firmware platform. They will be characterized by the latest image sensor technology, powerful features, higher image rates, reduced data quantities, and optimal image quality. Furthermore, the platform's architecture considerably supports shorter development cycles and further optimizations in the supply chain.

To further develop the business with very powerful cameras, another camera platform called Basler boost was developed and launched on the market. In addition to the camera, a frame grabber card that is fully harmonized with the camera was developed by Silicon Software. The Basler boost bundle addresses customers with highly sophisticated image processing applications and supports the new CoaXPress 2.0 (CXP-12) interface standard. It offers a unique price-performance-ratio and significantly reduces integration efforts for the customer.

In July 2019, Basler started the series production of further models of the Basler MED ace camera series, which was especially developed for the medical & life science area. Unique features address particular requirements of the investment goods markets for medical technology and life sciences. Moreover, Basler's DIN EN ISO 13485:2016 certification offers conformity to internationally accepted quality standards in the medical industry.

Furthermore, a second generation of 3D cameras was set in motion. The Basler blaze camera is an industrial 3D camera working on the basis of the time-of-flight-principle. At the end of the third quarter, first customer samples were shipped, the start of the series production is planned for the turn of the year.

In the new embedded vision technology sector, Basler expands its product range by 5 and 13 megapixel camera modules that are perfectly matched to NXP's i.MX8 processor family. In the future, embedded vision modules will particularly open up volume applications outside the factory automation pushing the application of image processing in cost sensitive markets. In August, first products based on this technology were launched on the market.

Outlook

So far, the fiscal year 2019 has been modest for the Basler group according to expectations and along the forecast communicated to the capital market at the beginning of the year. Due to the development of incoming orders within the past months and feedback from customers, the management expects a stable business development with a weak seasonal upturn in the fourth quarter. Overall, the economic outlook is dominated by high uncertainty and the investment goods markets for semiconductors and electronics are significantly depressed. Even though the current macroeconomic conditions have rather dampening effects and the risks of a global recession are increasing, management is positive about the future in general. Major growth drivers such as automation, image processing in new application fields outside the factory as well as the networking of intelligent machines and products (Industry 4.0 / IOT) are intact. In view of the advance of the year and the subsequent improving visibility, the management narrows the forecast for the full financial year. According to this, based on currently available information, the group's sales will be within a corridor of Euro 160 – 164 million at a pre-tax return rate margin of 8 – 10 %.

REVENUE SPLIT BY REGIONS

*as of September 30, 2019

Compared to the half year's figure, the gross margin of the first nine months slightly recovered at 45.9 % (previous year: 49.7 %). Overall, the margin of the first nine months is burdened by three effects: Due to low utilization, degressive effects were lower regarding fixed costs for material, production as well as R&D depreciations. Furthermore, there were one-time effects in the first quarter due to the takeover of stocks from the acquired distribution business in China. Additionally, due to the acquisition of the distribution business in China, the sales share of third party lowmargin products increased. In the area of camera sales prices, there were no major changes. In absolute terms, the gross result amounted to Euro 56.5 million (previous year: Euro 57.9 million).

GROSS PROFIT (IFRS)

Development of Gross Profit Margin

Gross Margin incl. development depreciation Gross Margin excl. development depreciation

Compared to the previous year figure of 2018, the lower gross profit of the current fiscal year 2019 had to bear an organically and inorganically grown organization as well as its associated personnel and material costs. The strategic investments in the personnel increase, particularly in R&D as well as marketing and sales, led to a decrease of the pre-tax result of Euro 10.1 million to Euro 13.1 million (previous year: Euro 23.2 million, -44 %) due to the currently weak market. In the third quarter, the upward trend of the EBT margin continued and was again above the strategic path of > 12 %. Apart from an increase of the gross profit this is mainly attributable to lower personnel costs due to dissolved vacation reserves and a high capitalization rate in R&D. The pre-tax return rate of the first nine months amounted to almost 11 %.

EARNINGS BEFORE TAX

The last seven quarters

The period surplus amounted to Euro 9.3 million and thus was 46 % below the previous year's figure of Euro 17.3 million. The result per share (diluted/undiluted) amounted to Euro 0.94 (previous year: Euro 1.79).

Asset Situation

The increase of the long-term assets is mainly due to the capitalization of the leasing contracts for the building according to IFRS 16 (initial application January 1, 2019), the M&A transaction in China, and the increase of intangible assets due to capitalized development services.

Regarding the short-term asset situation, particularly the inventories and accounts receivables increased due to the acquisition of the Chinese distribution partner MVLZ Sanbao Xingye, compared to the reporting date of December 31, 2018.

Development Equity

Equity amounted to Euro 100.7 million (December 31, 2018: Euro 75.5 million). The cumulated balance sheet total of the current financial year considerably increased due to the capitalization according to IFRS 16 as well as the capitalization of company values from acquisitions and intangible assets. However, on September 30, 2019, the equity ratio was relatively stable at 57.2 % (December 31, 2018: 54.3 %).

On May 16, 2019, the Basler AG shareholders' meeting resolved on an increase of the company's subscribed capital by Euro 7.0 million from Euro 3.5 million to Euro 10.5 million according to the provisions of a capital increase from company funds (section 207 et seq of the German Stock Corporation Act, AktG). The capital increase was conducted through a conversion of retained earnings amounting to Euro 7.0 million.

Cash Flow and Liquidity

The operating cash flow amounted to Euro 14.0 million (previous year: Euro 22.9 million). In addition to the reduction of the result, it was negatively affected by an increase of inventories and accounts receivables. The cash flow from investing activities amounted to Euro -28.6 million (previous year: Euro -26.7 million), it was extraordinarily impacted by the M&A transaction in China. In consideration of the China transaction, in total, the free cash flow decreased to Euro -14.6 million (previous year: Euro -3.8 million).

At the end of the reporting period, liquid assets amounted to Euro 30.9 million (December 31, 2018: Euro 36.0 million). It ensures the company's financial stability in times of macroeconomic uncertainties.

Events after the end of the interim reporting period

On January 1, 2019, the business of our Chinese distribution partner (MVLZ) was transferred to the newly established joint venture Basler China. Please refer to the explanations given in the annual report 2018 on this subject.

Employees

On the reporting date of September 30, 2019, the Basler group employed 810 (previous year: 649) employees (full-time equivalents). The significant increase compared to the previous year's quarter is mainly due to the future growth plan of the group. Furthermore, it is due to the transfer of the around 120 MVLZ employees to Basler China on January 1, 2019.

Report on Significant transactions with related parties (entities and individuals)

There are no significant changes compared to the information provided in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2018.

OPPORTUNITIES AND RISKS REPORT

Regarding significant opportunities and risks of the probable development of the company, we refer to the opportunities and risks described in the group management report as of December 31, 2018. Meanwhile, no significant changes occurred. Existing risks are continuously monitored and countermeasures are initiated. In the past quarter, a regular risk inventory was conducted within the Basler group. It largely confirmed the estimations of the previous inventory. Currently, major risks occur from a stronger competition, the availability of critical electronic components, macroeconomic and geopolitical changes as well as the ongoing post merger integration processes. For all major risks measures were initiated and further expanded in order to minimize the total risk.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM STATEMENT ACCORDING TO IFRS

The interim statement of Basler was prepared according to the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as applicable within the European Union (EU), the interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), as well as the Standing Interpretations Committee (SIC). The interim statement was prepared according to the provision of the IAS 34.

The interim statement as of September 30, 2019, has not been audited. The same accounting and valuation methods are applied as in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2018. For significant changes of the consolidated balance sheet, the consolidated income statement as well as the consolidated cash flow statement, we refer to the report on the profit, finance and asset situation.

On January 1, 2019, IFRS 16 was initially applied. As explained in the annual report 2018, within the initial application, all building leasing agreements were balanced as economic ownership including 98 % of the total volume of all leasing contracts.

In the cash flow statement Euro 9.2 million were netted as capitalization of assets and a liability is recognized for lease payments and shown under "Payout for amortization of finance lease" in the cash flow from financing activities.

Shareholder Structure

After the implementation of the capital increase and the issuance of bonus shares resolved on at this year's shareholders' meeting, the share capital of Basler AG amounted to Euro 10.5 million at the end of the quarter on September 30, 2019, now divided into 10.5 million no-par-value bearer shares.

In the first nine months, there were two notifiable changes in the shareholder structure. At the end of March, 7-Industries Holding B.V. announced to hold over 5 % of the Basler shares. Furthermore, we were informed by Invesco Advisers, Inc., that due to a merger with Oppenheimer Funds Inc. they took over their block of Basler shares on May 24, 2019. On October 14, 2019, Invesco corrected this announcement since the chain of companies belonging to this transaction was not shown in a correct way in the April announcement. The AIM INTERNATIONAL MUTUAL FUNDS (INVESCO INTERNATIONAL MUTUAL FUNDS) belonging to Invesco Advisers; Inc., now holds 5.71 % of the Basler shares.
