Dear Shareholders, Customers, Business Associates and Employees,
As in the previous year, the third quarter was the year's most successful quarter; sales were slightly higher year on year and the EBIT margin was 38 %. Sales after three quarters are only down marginally on the previous year. EBIT declined by some € 0.3 million due to the scheduled increase in staff costs, but after-tax earnings and earnings per share were 17 % higher year on year thanks to the € 1.1 million rise in the financial result.
As a result of the amendment to IFRS 11, the joint venture with Siemens, MeVis BreastCare GmbH & Co. KG, has been consolidated according to the equity method instead of on a proportionate basis since the beginning of 2014. The previous year's figures have been adjusted accordingly in order to allow for better comparison.
Our performance in detail: Sales in the third quarter of 2014 came to € 3,599 k, up 1 % on the third quarter of 2013 (€ 3,554 k). Sales in the first nine months were just slightly lower year on year at € 9,661 k (prev. year: € 9,712 k). Sales in the new license business remained unchanged at € 5,067 k, while sales in the maintenance business were down marginally by 3 % to € 4,293 k, accounting for 44 %, almost half of total sales. Sales in the Digital Mammography segment improved by 3 % to € 7,280 k (prev. year: € 7,087 k) while sales in the Other Diagnostics segment fell by 9 % to € 2,381 k (prev. year: € 2,625 k).
As in the first two quarters, operating costs also rose in the third quarter of 2014. The scheduled considerable increase in staff costs in previous quarters dropped to 1 % in the third quarter (from € 1,648 k in the previous year to € 1,641 k), which corresponds to an increase of 6 % for the first nine months. Other operating expenses rose by 26 % to € 572 k (prev. year: € 453 k). This was primarily due to higher selling, acquisition and maintenance costs. Cumulated for the first nine months of 2014, other operating expenses were up € 239 k (from € 1,303 k in the previous year to € 1,542 k). Some of these costs were passed on to MeVis BreastCare, as is reflected in the sharp € 276 k rise in other operating income.
Capitalized development expenses were 8 % higher at € 1,163 k in the first nine months of 2014 (prev. year: € 1,075 k). However, this is expected to subside considerably in future.
EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) was down by 7 %, from € 4,697 k to € 4,373 k year on year due to the slight drop in sales and higher costs.
Depreciation and amortization came to € 1,223 k (on par with the previous year), resulting in EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) of € 3,150 k (down by a sharp 10 % on the previous year's figure of € 3,485 k); the EBIT margin remained strong at 33 % (prev. year: 36 %).
The financial result improved considerably by € 1,100 k to € 775 k. This was attributable to the development of the US dollar, the sharp improvement in earnings at MeVis BreastCare and higher net interest income. Tax expenses increased by € 258 k to € 469 k .
After-tax earnings increased by € 507 k to € 3,456 k, which is equivalent to earnings per share of € 2.01 (prev. year € 1.71).
Cash and cash equivalents were up € 427 k to € 15,519 k in the third quarter, which corresponds to a € 2,069 k increase in the first three quarters of 2014.
In view of the development of business so far, we are very confident that we can meet our forecast for the year. Given that fiscal year 2013 was very successful, we anticipate a slight decline in sales to between € 12.0 million and € 12.5 million in 2014. The development of EBIT will in our view be significantly impacted by the expected slight decline in sales and a marginal increase in costs. We also anticipate considerably lower capitalized development expenses in the fourth quarter. We expect EBIT to fall slightly to between € 3.0 million and € 3.5 million. Liquidity is forecast to rise to between € 15.0 million and € 16.0 million in 2014 as a result of sustained positive cash flows from operating activities.
The amendment to the cooperation agreement with Hologic announced in January was contractually concluded in the third quarter. With this step, the importance of our initiatives to expand the business introduced two years ago increased further. In addition to the expansion of the product portfolio for online services, we continued to develop our software solution for the promising future lung screening market in the third quarter and finalized work on our Veolity product. The conclusion of a contract with an important industrial customer in the third quarter confirms our conviction that other market players see lung screening as a lucrative market. On the 10th of November 2014 the CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) decided that the national health insurances Medicare and Medicaid will assume the reimbursement of costs for lung screening in the United States. Through this decision a lung screening program throughout the United States can be implemented in the coming years.
We would like to take this opportunity to once again thank all employees for their exceptional performance as well as our business associates, customers and shareholders for their confidence in us.
Marcus Kirchhoff Dr. Robert Hannemann Chairman & CEO Member of the Executive Board

The shareholder structure did not change significantly in the third quarter of 2014. The three founders accounted for approximately 44 % of the share capital at the end of the quarter. The Companies treasury stock is equivalent to 5.36 %. The remaining shares are predominantly held by institutional investors and private shareholders.
Fig.: Shareholder structure as at September 30, 2014
Through a joint venture with Siemens Aktiengesellschaft, Berlin and Munich (hereafter: "Siemens"), MeVis Medical Solutions AG (hereafter: "MMS AG", "MeVis" or "Company") holds 51 % of MeVis BreastCare GmbH & Co. KG (hereafter: "MBC" or "MBC KG").
MMS AG has held around 41 % of the stock in Medis Holding BV, Leiden (Netherlands) since the beginning of June 2010. The pro-rata earnings of this equity interest are reported in the net financial result. This shareholding was sold to Reiber Consultancy B.V. in April 2014. The proceeds from the sale of MMS AG shares amounted to € 500 k.
MMS AG develops innovative software for analyzing and evaluating image data and marketing it to equipment manufacturers of medical devices and providers of medical IT platforms.
MeVis' clinical focuses are image-based early detection and diagnosis of epidemiologically important diseases such as breast, lung, prostate and colon cancer as well as neurological disorders. The software applications support all the imaging modalities available. These not only include X-ray modalities such as computed tomography, digital mammography or digital tomosynthesis, but also magnetic resonance imaging, digital sonography and the simultaneous use of multiple modalities (multimodality). Then there are the more modern imaging modalities, such as positron emission tomography (PET), sonoelastography and molecular imaging. MeVis supplies technologies and applications for global medical industry leaders, meeting their needs and helping them to strengthen their leadership positions.
MeVis also offers image-based support for planning and conducting surgical interventions in the form of MeVis Distant Services, which provides customized services to automate the processing, quantitative analysis and patient-specific visualization of radiological image data. It also offers an internationally unparalleled process for planning complex operations on the liver and other organs is offered. Sales and marketing activities are directly addressed towards clinical end users (B2C).
In addition, MeVis is expanding its offer for clinical end users by two online services: MeVis Online CAD offers fully automated detection as well as assessment and quantification of anomalies of the lung. MeVis Online Academy offers interactive online training to improve the diagnostic capabilities of clinical end users. The product range of online services will be expanded gradually.
For reporting purposes and internal governance, MeVis has two operating segments ("Digital Mammography" and "Other Diagnostics").
The Digital Mammography segment develops and markets software products which support breast diagnostic imaging and intervention. Aside from the original products for digital mammography, new software applications for other imaging modalities such as ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging and tomosynthesis were added. The Digital Mammography segment includes the business with Hologic, Inc..
In addition to the breast diagnostics business based on magnetic resonance imaging conducted with Invivo Corp., the Other Diagnostics segment also includes digital radiology products (e.g. magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), etc.) for other types of diseases such as lung, prostate and intestinal disorders as well as general image-based analysis and diagnostics of radiology images. Other main activities in this segment include image and risk analysis for planning liver surgery and tumor diagnostics in connection with clinical studies of pharmaceutical companies (Distant Services business segment).
Sales of € 3,599 k in the third quarter of 2014 were up approximately 1 % on the level of the previous year (€ 3,554 k). At € 1,513 k, the maintenance business remained relatively constant year on year (prev. year: € 1,509 k) and the new license business increased by 2 % to € 1,999 k (prev. year: € 1,967 k).
Revenues in the first nine months of 2014 amounted to € 9,661 k and declined by approximately 1 % from the level of the previous year (prev. year: € 9,712 k). Revenues are broken down into the segments Digital Mammography at € 7,280 k (prev. year: € 7,087 k) and Other Diagnostics at € 2,381 k (prev. year: € 2,625 k). At 75 % (prev. year: 73 %), the Digital Mammography segment continues to be the main source of revenues in the Company.
The installed base of software licenses once again led to consistently high maintenance and service revenues. In the first three quarters of 2014, the share of sales accounted for by maintenance and service amounted to 44 % (prev. year: 45 %).
The rise in staff costs by 6 % to € 5,208 k (prev. year: € 4,895 k) is largely due to slight salary increases and a rise in the average number of full-time equivalents compared to the same period in the previous year. MMS AG had 107 employees on average in the first three quarters of 2014. This corresponds to 94 full-time equivalents (prev. year: 107 employees or 92 full-time equivalents).
Capitalized development expenses in the period under review amounted to € 1,163 k (prev. year: € 1,075 k). As in the previous year's period, these accounted for staff costs related to the development of new products in the Digital Mammography segment.
Other operating expenses increased year on year, and totaled € 1,542 k (prev. year: € 1,303 k). This amount mainly comprised rental/leasing expenses of € 378 k (prev. year: € 330 k), maintenance/repair costs of € 211 k (prev. year: € 102 k), travel expenses of € 150 k (prev. year: € 118 k), legal and consulting costs of € 91 k (prev. year: € 89 k), and stationery of € 68 k (prev. year: € 43 k).
EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) totaled € 4,373 k in the period under review (prev. year: € 4,697 k). The EBITDA margin decreased accordingly to 45 % (prev. year: 48 %).
Depreciation, amortization and impairments of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment increased slightly by 1 % to € 1,223 k (prev. year: € 1,212 k), while amortization of development services rose by € 123 k to € 824 k (prev. year: € 701 k) and amortization of intangible assets fell by € 98 k to € 274 k (prev. year: € 372 k).
Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) amounted to € 3,150 k in the reporting period (prev. year: € 3,485 k). The EBIT margin fell accordingly to 33 % compared to a previous year value of 36 %.
The financial result increased considerably in the reporting period to € 775 k (prev. year: € -325 k). The main reason for this is the improved earnings of the 51 % share in MeVis BreastCare GmbH & Co. KG of € 289 k (prev. year: € -145 k), which is recognized at equity, as well as the balance of income and expenses from exchange rate differences of € 502 k (prev. year: € -157 k).
Earnings before taxes (EBT) came to € 3,925 k in the reporting period (prev. year: € 3,160 k). The EBT margin improved considerably to 41 % compared to 33 % in the previous year.
After-tax earnings are impacted by income taxes and the deferred tax expenses of € 469 k reported here (prev. year: € 211 k), amounting to € 3,456 k in the period under review (prev. year: € 2,949 k).
Earnings per share increased to € 2.01 (prev. year: € 1.71).
Cash flow from current operating activities came to € 2,510 k (prev. year: € 4,635 k) in the period under review. This comprised earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of € 3,150 k (prev. year: € 3,485 k), adjusted for depreciation in the amount of € 1,223 k (prev. year: € 1,212 k), changes in provisions of € 6 k (prev. year: € 13 k), the total of all non-cash expenses and income of € 154 k (prev. year: € 116 k), the total of interest paid and received of € 157 k (prev. year: € 70 k), the total of taxes paid and received in the amount of € 18 k (prev. year: € -166 k), exchange rate differences paid and received of € 213 k (prev. year: € -10 k), changes in inventories and trade receivables and other assets of € -1,807 k (prev. year: € -184 k), and changes in trade payables and other liabilities of € -604 k (prev. year: € -81 k).
In the period under review, cash flow from investing activities came to € -4,810 k (prev. year: € -927 k) and mainly consisted of payments for capitalized development expenses of € 1,163 k (prev. year: € 1,075 k), payments for the acquisition of securities of € 9,205 k (prev. year: € 0 k) as well as payments received for the disposal of securities in the amount of € 5,148 k (prev. year: € 300 k).
Cash flow from financing activities, amounting to € -9 k (prev. year: € -38 k), consisted exclusively of leasing transactions.
The change in cash and cash equivalents in the period under review came to € -2,309 k (prev. year: € 3,670 k).
Liquid funds amounted to € 15,519 k (December 31, 2013: € 13,450 k) as of the balance sheet date. This comprised cash and cash equivalents of € 7,199 k (December 31, 2013: € 9,299 k) and securities available for sale of € 8,320 k (December 31, 2013: € 4,151 k).
Total assets increased by € 3,648 k to € 37,661 k (December 31, 2013: € 34,013 k) as of the end of the third quarter and the balance sheet structure remained largely unchanged compared to the end of fiscal year 2013. The equity ratio increased slightly to 80 % (December 31, 2013: 78 %). Equity covered 171 % of fixed assets (December 31, 2013: € 152 %) and amounted to 88 % of current assets (December 31, 2013: 104 %). Fixed assets fell slightly to 47 % compared to total assets (December 31, 2013: 51 %).
The increase in assets is largely attributable to the rise in liquidity. While other financial assets fell by € 4,225 k to € 8,670 k (December 31, 2013: € 4,445 k) due to the acquisition of securities, cash and cash equivalents declined to € 7,199 k (December 31, 2013: € 9,299 k) as a result. Furthermore, trade receivables rose by € 1,667 k to € 3,686 k due to the balance sheet date (December 31, 2013: € 2,019 k).
Equity was up 14 % to € 30,139 k (December 31, 2013: € 26,445 k) on the back of net profit for the year. Other significant changes in liabilities related to trade payables, which declined by € 482 k to € 307 k (December 31, 2013: € 789 k), and other current financial liabilities, which rose by € 348 k to € 1,143 k (December 31, 2013: € 795 k) largely due to the increase in staff liabilities.
No transactions of material relevance to the Company have arisen since the balance sheet date.
The risks associated with dependency on large customers and on customers' success became more specific following Hologic's announcement on January 17, 2014 about the change to the cooperation, supplemented by the Corporate News of September 25, 2014. No further material changes have occurred with regard to the risk situation of the Company since the beginning of the fiscal year. Therefore, the statements made in the opportunities and risk report of the consolidated annual financial statements as of December 31, 2013 remain valid.
Based on the first quarters, we are very confident to achieve our forecast for this year. Thereafter, we expect a slight decline in sales compared to the very strong financial year 2013 to € 12.0 million to € 12.5 million. In our view the development of EBIT will be significantly imfluenced by the expected slight decline in sales and a marginal increase in costs. In addition, we anticipate significantly lower capitalization of development costs for the fourth quarter. Therefore we expect the EBIT to fall slightly to between € 3.0 million and € 3.5 million. Liquidity is anticipated to rise to between € 15.0 million and € 16.0 million in 2014 as a result of sustained positive cash flows from operating activities. As in the previous reporting period, the Executive Board will review its expectations during the financial year on a regular basis based on the current business developments.

Loans and receivables are due from the MeVis BreastCare GmbH & Co. KG at € 173 k (31. Dec. 2013: € 84 k).
In connection with the acquisition of the 49 % interest in MeVis BreastCare Solutions GmbH & Co.

Earnings per share equal the profit on continuing activities or profit (after tax) divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the financial year. Earnings per share (fully diluted) are calculated on the assumption that all securities, stock options and stock awards with a potentially dilutionary effect are converted or exercised.
As the criteria for exercising the options had not been satisfied as of the balance sheet date, it can be assumed that no options had been exercised by the employees and that no shares had been awarded to entitled members of the Executive Board. Accordingly, they are not included in the calculation of earnings per share, which means that diluted earnings per share are identical to basic earnings per share.
The weighted average of shares outstanding is determined by taking account of shares redeemed and reissued subject to a chronological weighting.
