Georg Kapsch, Chief Executive Officer
As detailed in this interim management report, we at the Kapsch TrafficCom Group have been able to continue our growth in the first half of the fiscal year 2011/12. Revenues and profit have both increased again significantly. These accomplishments are due in large part to considerable progress in our major ongoing projects, particularly in Poland and South Africa. This progress is also of strategic importance to us since the risk always associated with such projects, especially in the area of system installation, has been significantly reduced in recent months. At the same time, the developments in the second quarter of our fiscal year offer insight into the future of Kapsch TrafficCom. We were able to win important contracts, such as from the E-Z Pass® Group in the U.S.A. and another one in Portugal. Decisions regarding other projects, such as in Russia and Slovenia, will be announced soon. We recently reached a basic agreement with Asfinag Mautservice GmbH regarding the extension of the operation and maintenance contract for the nationwide electronic truck toll collection system in Austria. The contract is due to expire at the end of 2013 but should now be extended to the end of 2018. We are especially pleased by this, also because it provides long-term security for a considerable share of the revenue of our segment Services, System Extensions, Components Sales (SEC).
With an eye toward existing and future projects, we carried out a capital increase at the end of July in which we successfully placed 800,000 new shares. The proceeds have strengthened our capital base and will support our further growth.
In the first half of the fiscal year 2011/12, the Kapsch TrafficCom Group achieved revenues of EUR 278.8 million, almost twice the already outstanding result of the same period in the previous year. We also achieved a disproportionate EBIT increase from EUR 18.2 million to EUR 40.1 million, bringing the EBIT margin to 14.4 %, or roughly 2 percentage points above that of the same period in the previous year. The progress accomplished in the project business of the segment Road Solution Projects (RSP) also contributed significantly to this growth, as did the enormous expansion of the recurring business in the segment Services, System Extensions, Components Sales (SEC). For example, the volume of delivered on-board units (OBUs) in the first half of the year rose to 5.7 million units. This not only exceeded our expectations but also the previous year's total annual volume of 5.2 million units.
In our major project in Poland for implementation and operation of a nationwide electronic toll collection system, we completed major milestones during the second quarter of the current fiscal year: after only eight months of installation time, the system went into operation on 3 July 2011. We were also able to finish the entire road-side infrastructure at the end of September, and we are nearing the final acceptance process.
In South Africa, we were able in the second quarter to continue the project for implementation and operation of an electronic toll collection system for multi-lane free-flow traffic in the Gauteng province following definitive clarification of the legal framework by the customer. We reached the pre-operations phase in mid-November, and the official system start is currently planned for February 2012.
In the U.S.A., we achieved a great success in July that will help further the desired market expansion and thereby the continued growth of the Kapsch TrafficCom Group. Kapsch TrafficCom IVHS was selected by the E-Z Pass® Group, a consortium of 24 toll authorities in 14 U.S. states, as the supplier for the new ten-year technology and service contract. We are currently in the process of finalizing the contract with the 24 agencies. Our talks regarding a possible cooperation with the Federal Signal Corporation, another large provider in the U.S.A., were not continued.
At the end of July, Kapsch TrafficCom was selected in Portugal for the installation, technical operation and maintenance of an electronic toll collection system for multi-lane free-flow traffic on over 100 km of road. The realization began in October and should be completed in stages by October 2013. The first toll stations already went into operation on 1 November 2011.
Additional projects and decisions regarding potential orders are already in the works. In Russia, the decision for awarding of the long-term contract for maintenance and refurbishment along the M4 Don Highway as well as for installation and operation of a toll collection system for which we qualified as part of a joint venture should be made in December 2011. Our offer for a nationwide electronic truck toll collection system in Slovenia is largely finished and should be submitted before the end of the year. Invitations to tender are also under consideration or already in preparation for nationwide toll collection systems in Hungary and Denmark.
The second half of the fiscal year 2011/12 will therefore be marked by the completion of major projects as well as preparations for and decisions on new projects.
I would also like to take this opportunity to express my delight that on 22 August 2011 the Annual General Meeting of Kapsch TrafficCom AG elected Sabine Kauper to our Supervisory Board. Not only is Ms. Kauper a top-notch financial expert, we are also pleased to have another woman join the board. In view of the current discussions surrounding the need for diversity on supervisory boards, we see ourselves as "always one step ahead" in this regard as well.
Sincerely,
Georg Kapsch Chief Executive Officer
The price developments of the Kapsch TrafficCom shares exhibited a very high level of volatility in the first half of the fiscal year 2011/12, reflecting the current environment on the international stock markets. Starting from a closing price of EUR 62.50 on 31 March 2011, the share price initially rose to EUR 67.47. Similar to the development of the relevant comparison indexes, the share price took a downward turn, closing on 30 September 2011 at EUR 49.64, or 21 % below the previous year's final price. The ATX Prime index lost 31 % in value during the same period.
On 22 August 2011, the Annual General Meeting of Kapsch TrafficCom AG passed a dividend of EUR 1.00 per share for the fiscal year 2010/11. Sabine Kauper was also elected as member of the Supervisory Board. She follows Morton Llewllyen, whose appointment came to an end with the close of the Annual General Meeting.
On 27 July 2011, Kapsch TrafficCom carried out a capital increase in which 800,000 new shares were successfully placed with institutional investors. This increased the number of shares from 12.2 to 13 million. The free float (including the shares of Erwin Toplak, COO) rose to roughly 35.8 %, of which about 5 % was held by Capital Research and Management Company as of 30 September 2011. KAPSCH-Group Beteiligungs GmbH holds roughly 64.2 % of the shares. Based on the closing price of the shares of EUR 49.64, Kapsch TrafficCom had a market capitalization of EUR 645.3 million on 30 September 2011.
Closing price of the Kapsch TrafficCom share and closing value of the ATX Prime on 31 March 2011, each indexed to 100.

Global traffic volumes are constantly growing, with India, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, China and many Latin American countries showing the fastest growth. With its electronic and manual toll collection systems and other intelligent transportation systems (ITS) solutions, Kapsch TrafficCom has already established a presence in all of these high-growth markets. Kapsch TrafficCom closely monitors developments in the requirements in these regions on an ongoing basis, so that it is in a position to supply technical solutions tailored to the specific needs of the market at any time.
Influenced by the debt crisis of certain Southern European countries, Kapsch TrafficCom and its customers continue to face a challenging market environment. The management believes that investments in infrastructure will be undertaken even in light of the current economic climate and that toll collection systems can form the basis for financing such measures. Around the world, a number of major projects involving the introduction or modernization of nationwide toll collection systems are in the preparation or bidding phases.
The revenues of Kapsch TrafficCom Group were EUR 278.8 million in the first half of the current fiscal year 2011/12 (FY12-H1), up by 90.3 % from EUR 146.5 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year (FY11-H1). This positive trend was attributable to both major segments: Road Solution Projects (RSP) more than doubled its revenues, and the segment of Services, System Extensions, Components Sales (SEC) recorded a significant increase.
Revenues by segment in the first half of the current fiscal year were as follows:
The number of on-board units delivered reached an all-time high of 5.7 million units (FY11-H1: 1.5 million units), attributable to the deliveries for the South African Gauteng project, the equipment of the nationwide toll collection system in Poland and the Mark IV IVHS subsidiaries acquired in November 2010.
■ The segment Others (OTH) recorded revenues of EUR 2.7 million (FY11-H1: EUR 3.5 million), a decrease of 22.6 %. Due to the Group-internal demand, external manufacturing orders were accepted on a selective basis.
In the first half of the current fiscal year, Kapsch TrafficCom Group reported an operating result (EBIT) of EUR 40.1 million (FY11-H1: EUR 18.2 million). This result was impacted negatively by not yet realized exchange rate effects. Operating results by segment in the first half of the year were as follows:
Kapsch TrafficCom recorded a financial result of EUR -8.7 million in the period under consideration (FY11-H1: EUR 0.7 million). Finance income increased slightly due to exchange rate gains. Finance costs rose as a result of exchange rate losses, which largely remained unrealized, basically determined by the financing of the projects in Poland and South Africa and the acquisitions in the North American region. Increased interest expenses in connection with the corporate bond issued last year and the financing of the nationwide truck toll collection project in Poland were other reasons for the higher finance costs. Due to these developments, the profit before taxes and subsequently also the profit for the period as well as the earnings per share exhibited lower growth rates than the operating result (EBIT).
Total assets increased as a consequence of the ongoing project business to EUR 514.4 million as of 30 September 2011 (31 March 2011: EUR 450.1 million). Total equity reached EUR 236.8 million, EUR 45.3 million above the previous year's figure of EUR 191.5 (31 March 2011), mainly due to the capital increase at the end of July in which 800,000 new shares were offered and placed with institutional investors. On this basis, the equity ratio of the Kapsch TrafficCom Group increased to 46.0 % as at 30 September 2011 (31 March 2011: 42.5 %) despite an increase in total assets and the high project-related net working capital.
The most significant changes in assets were due to the increase in inventories relating to the nationwide electronic toll collection system in Poland. The increase of EUR 10.4 million compared with the 31 March 2011 value brought the total to EUR 59.9 million. The higher trade receivables (30 September 2011: EUR 245.2 million; 31 March 2011: EUR 190.9 million) resulted predominantly from receivables in the project in Poland and the South African Gauteng project.
On the liabilities side, non-current and current liabilities increased. Deferred income tax liabilities increased due to the accrued sales from the project business. The current liabilities were mainly influenced by the current financial liabilities increasing from EUR 23.1 million to EUR 43.1 million due to utilization of the credit line for the project in Poland. Trade payables recorded a decrease of EUR 5.7 million, and other liabilities and deferred income declined by EUR 5.3 million.
Net cash flow from operating activities declined to EUR -39.4 million in the first half of the current fiscal year, compared to EUR -18.7 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year. Mainly the rise in trade receivables and other current assets as well as the increase in inventories and a decrease in trade payables and other current payables were responsible for this development, also leading to a further increase of the net working capital. This could not be compensated by the significantly improved operating result. The net cash flow from investing activities was determined by the expansion of production facilities, modernization of office premises and acquisition of securities. The free cash flow declined to EUR -45.2 million after EUR -21.2 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year. The capital increase at the end of July and the drawdown of a short-term credit for the project in Poland positively affected the net cash flow from financing activities, while the payment of dividends lowered the result.
Cash and cash equivalents nearly stayed unchanged at EUR 42.2 million as of 30 September 2011, compared to EUR 42.0 million on 31 March 2011. The increase in short-term financial liabilities led to higher net debts, which increased from EUR 47.2 million as of 31 March 2011 to EUR 67.0 million as of 30 September 2011.
No major transactions with related parties having a considerable impact on the financial position or the operative result took place during the first half of the current fiscal year. Details of transactions with related parties are discussed under note 13 to the condensed consolidated interim report as of 30 September 2011.
On 1 April 2011, Kapsch Telematic Services FLLC, Minsk, Belarus was founded.
On 17 May 2011, Kapsch TrafficCom Group acquired a share in the newly founded limited liability company "United Toll Systems", Moscow, Russia.
On 27 July 2011, Kapsch TrafficCom AG successfully completed the placement of 800,000 new shares from authorized capital. The issue price was determined at EUR 61.25 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of EUR 49.0 million to Kapsch TrafficCom AG. This transaction increased the free float to 35.8 %.
As an international group, Kapsch TrafficCom is exposed to general and industry-specific risks such as high volatility of revenues from project business as well as risks from project realization. A risk management system has been established at the headquarters in order to identify any such risks at early stages.
As the Kapsch TrafficCom Group becomes more internationally active, the importance of currency exchange risks increases. A considerable portion of revenues and costs are denominated in the currency of the respective foreign companies such as CZK, PLN, SEK, USD and ZAR rather than in euros. Although the Group aims to hedge the net currency position of the individual contracts as necessary, currency fluctuations may result in exchange rate losses that appear on the consolidated financial statements (transaction risk). In addition, risks arise from the conversion of separate financial statements of international companies into the Group currency, the euro (translation risk).
The second half of the fiscal year 2011/12 will be shaped by the completion of existing projects – particularly in Poland and South Africa – as well as by potential new projects. In Russia, Kapsch TrafficCom is expecting a decision on a possible award in December 2011, while additional invitations to tender are also in preparation or expected soon in other countries.
On 3 October and 8 November 2011, Kapsch TrafficCom Group increased its investment in Q-Free ASA, Norway, and now has a share of just over 20 %.

Income taxes relate to current taxes and to deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. Applying the Austrian corporate tax rate of 25 % to the Group's pre-tax result gives the theoretical value for the tax expense/income. The effective tax expense/income differs from the above due to, among others, different tax regimes in the various countries, the treatment of tax losses, tax allowances and permanent differences.
In the first half of FY12 the tax rate is 29 % (first half of FY11: 23 %). For the full year FY12, management expects an effective tax rate of approximately 25 %.
