For the quarter ended on 31 December 2013, Netgem announces consolidated revenues of € 23.5 million, bringing its consolidated revenue throughout 2013 to € 81.3 million, of which 77% was generated abroad.

In France, the LaBox service had reached more than 15.000 subscribers by year-end, a few months after its launch. Distribution via operators (Virgin Mobile, Citiplay and Ozone at this stage) will contribute to growth in 2014.

Abroad, the group announced the launch of an Internet television service with eircom, the main Irish telecom operator. This flexible and tightly-priced offer is marketed in "quadplay" packages (internet, fixed telephony, mobile and tv) for optical-fiber subscribers.

Outlook, financial situation and results

Netgem intends to strengthen its approach, already successfully initiated in the Asia Pacific region, consisting in bringing operational and commercial resources closer to countries with robust growth prospects. No later than this current quarter, Netgem will create a subsidiary in Mexico to support Iusacell, the optical-fiber operator in Mexico City.

In this context, the Group maintains its objective to double its international revenue between FY2011 and FY2014, confirming the return to growth started in FY2013. The Group expects to continue to grow profitably, maintaining its high investment capacity, with a strong cash position and no debt.

Operations and key events

On 16 December 2013, the Group obtained from Bpifrance the "innovative company" label for the next 3 years. This label allows French Investment Funds for Innovation ("FCPI") to select Netgem shares as part of their mandatory investment allocation in innovative companies.

Since the launch of its share buyback program at the end of FY2011, the Group has acquired approximately 2.2 million of its own shares, of which approximately 900,000 were allocated to holders of free shares or used for the tender offer on Videofutur.

Pro forma data

The pro forma figures consolidate the results of Videofutur as of the beginning of January 2012, whereas the consolidated figures only include them as of the beginning of April 2013.
