More software, less hardware: the world of telecommunications is looking for innovative solutions that are, at the same time, less costly to manage. Operators in the sector are increasingly oriented towards excellence in customer satisfaction, an objective to be pursued through continual improvements in the quality perceived by users of the services. Exprivia accepts this challenge by offering innovative services and solutions for telecommunications, a market influenced by continual technological evolutions.

Digital transformation with virtualization

In telecommunications, technology is not simply a support but the core of the business. An essential condition at a time when all the operators are trying to minimize their operating costs but, at the same time, to increase customer satisfaction.

Exprivia offers operators and builders in the telecommunications sector extremely high-level technological competencies as it allows them to manage the Digital Transformation, reducing their operating costs with innovative solutions.

  • Next generation OSS Solutions & Services
  • IT Infrastructure Management
  • Web Portal&Mobile Applications

Aerospace&Defence

Safety on flights, land and sea transport, control of operations areas, vehicles, and digitized environments: all this has become fundamentally important in today's world. Its long experience in military and civil environments enables Exprivia to build defence systems and above all prevention systems in which Information Technology is the best tool for protecting humans and vehicles, whether military or civilian.

There is an even more urgent need for preventive action such as monitoring and controlling scenarios: no longer a posteriori but continuous control of vehicles, operating environments and routes, to take action before a crisis can occur.

An essential condition for IT support for strategic decisions in critical situations is situational awareness, the correct perception of what happens in the operating scenarios in real time. Exprivia has again been a protagonist of the digital transformation, which now offers a real advantage to the sector, making it possible to analyse the complexity of heterogeneous information (images, videos, data, texts, symbols,

voices and sounds) coming from a large number of sensors, worn, fixed and mobile, during flight, navigation, in orbit and on vehicles or drones.

In particular, Exprivia develops systems for command and control, supervision, presentation of maps, processing of geographical maps and rapid prototyping of air, land and sea transport consoles that ensure maximum interaction with scenarios increasingly close to reality, also through augmented reality techniques, the richness of georeferenced information and social collaboration.

Public Sector

Cybersecurity, digital identity, digital documents and electronic payments: the Digital Agenda for Italy designs the economy 4.0, increasingly based on Big Data and the IoT.

Intangibleinfrastructure and digitalcitizenship

You can call it e-government, e-gov or digital administration: for us, it is just called innovation, simplicity and reliability for the protection of businesses, residents, public employees and the government.

Bureaucratic streamlining through the digitalised management of the PA - along with organisational renewal activities - now allows for the reconciliation of spending optimisation with service quality, as it provides users with multiple rapid and effective communication channels that connect residents with public institutions and provide the latter with a series of worry-free and completely secure tools for completing administrative procedures.

From this perspective, Exprivia has been able to rely on much of its experience in optimising processes for large private enterprises, which it has reconceptualised based on the needs of central and local governments and broken down into a range of areas, including:

  • products and services for management (financial statements and accounting, human resources, management control, demographic services, document management, social services, etc.);
  • eGovernment for relations with the public, businesses and institutions;
  • eProcurement for purchase processes and to monitor suppliers;
  • storage and sharing of electronic documents;
  • planning and control through business intelligence platforms and business analytics;
  • performance measurement in PA processes;
  • solutions to support administrative processes concerning self governance and cooperation between administrations (SOA paradigm);
  • exchanging information between entities, citizens and businesses through a single point of access;
  • system integration for operational continuity 24/7 and automatic system repairs.

Healthcare

Managing health is more than simply controlling healthcare expenditure. The operators in this sector have been saying this for years. Relations between the regional government, the healthcare facilities and the users must be improved by adopting technological innovations.

Exprivia is the ideal partner for a healthcare system oriented towards an excellent future that combines savings with efficacy and efficiency: its technological solutions for the healthcare system ensure absolute, simple and reliable technological coordination between the regional government and the healthcare provided by local health authorities, hospitals, ARNAS and IRCCS research centres, general and specialized hospitals, and domiciliary care systems.

A team of 350 specialists, 30 years of operation in the IT sector, solutions and services at 500 hospitals for 20 million patients confirm the efficacy of the Exprivia solutions in satisfying the needs of the healthcare sector, of fundamental importance for the economy and development of every region.

Suite of solutions

The Regions with the most efficient health service are those that spend the most but also spend the best, that is, without causing overruns of the regional budgets.

The Exprivia systems connect the entire Regional Healthcare system, from the administrative and management centres to the public and private hospital facilities along the entire supply chain, to the individual professionals and on-line services for users, so as to get the most from every resource.

This is done using the e4Cure suite, expressly designed for the healthcare environment, which coordinates the two main branches of the health system:

  • Local healthcare providers
  • Regional authorities and agencies

creating interface flows that ensure total, structured control.

Quality and riskmonitoring

In addition to its ISO 9001 quality certification, Exprivia has set up an ISO 13485 Medical Device quality system for monitoring clinical risks.

Industry

Exprivia rationalizes and reaches excellent levels of performance in the company processes of its customers, by modifying the entire value chain: from analysis to consulting, implementation, the Application and System Management services, also using proprietary, vertical solutions. The strategic relationship between the processes (increasingly simplified, quick and interlinked) and the in-depth knowledge of specific business features enables Exprivia to offer a tool for increasing the company's prospects of success.

Smart Manufacturing, digital innovation in industrial processes.

The recent research projects foreshadow a radical change in business scenarios: the fourth industrial revolution is in progress and will soon bring fully controlled, interconnected and automated production processes through the evolution of technology.

The expression "Industry 4.0", used for the first time at the Hanover Fair in 2011, defines this change in a panorama that is still evolving but already has precise development guidelines.

The four pillars of this transformation constitute the core of Exprivia's know-how and skills:

  • use of data and connectivity (big data, open data, Internet of Things, machine-to-machine and cloud computing);
  • analytics and machine learning;
  • man/machine interaction (touch interfaces and augmented reality);
  • digital/real interaction (additive manufacturing, robotic control, machine-to-machine interactions, storage of energy from various sources).

The impact of this transformation will be colossal, like that of the previous industrial revolutions brought over the centuries by steam, electricity, oil and computers and will only be quantifiable in the future. In the mean time, however, the clouding technologies are already influencing the work dynamics, which are evolving extremely rapidly. Every business must therefore introduce digital innovation in its industrial processes to gain the benefits of Smart Manufacturing.

Exprivia has taken this extraordinary opportunity by strengthening the entire industrial process with its digital solutions and automating the management of huge quantities of information in a simple, rational and efficient way, thus converting it into a strong presence on the market. This is the natural evolution of the vertical offer that Exprivia develops on the various industrial markets.

Banking & Finance

The Banking, Finance and Insurance Business Unit ended the third quarter of 2016 with a 6.2% increase compared to the same period in 2015. This result is decisive for overall performance in the first 9 months, which recorded an improvement of 2.3%.

Also in this third quarter, the scenario considerations and trends seen in the first 6 months of the year remain valid, which can be summarised on one hand as the national and international uncertainty arising from the overall sector reorganisation (driven by policy) and on the other hand as the focusing of expenses on compliance, with all national and international regulatory obligations, and the different components supporting the digital transformation.

In this general atmosphere, despite the positive result achieved, our business development action did not live up to its full potential, in particular in the middle segment of the market, due to the shift to subsequent quarters of investments relating to the most innovative component of our system offering. Nevertheless, the following was recorded in the third quarter:

  • in the Finance segment, the results improved by more than 15% due to the acquisition of new projects and services launched in the first half of the year, an expansion of our offering in the compliance component and in other capital market platforms, as well as the optimisation of the organisation of delivery
  • in Credit Solutions, the results declined by 10%, due especially to the international component and the delay in the launch of important Credit Risk Management collaborations
  • in the Factoring area, the results were in line with those of last year, despite the partial turnover under way in the customer base, which has been heavily involving the entire structure since the start of the year now, due to the updating of the offer and engaging with new customers
  • the results of Digital Transformation (Big Data Analytics, Cloud & Security Infrastructure, Smart Process, Customer Experience) improved by more than 10%, characterised especially by collaborations in the Customer Experience and Smart Process areas, which during the quarter also led to the acquisition of 3 important new customers.

In conclusion, the results achieved resulted in a positive quarter. In addition, the effectiveness of our continuously evolving offering is confirmed by the interest demonstrated in the business development action carried out in the first nine months of the year, the benefits of which will be clearer by the end of the year if sector investments are unblocked.

Utilities

The Utilities Business Unit recorded revenues amounting to Euro 5.5 million in the third quarter of 2016 compared to Euro 4.6 million in 2015, a 19.8% increase. Several contracts began simultaneously in July 2016, justifying the increase during the quarter in question.

The Utilities Business Unit is continuously active in pursuing the operational efficiency and digital transformation goals of its customers by participating in innovative projects with an international scope. Projects are also under way for the development of IT solutions in the area of grid management, IoT, Smart Home and plant maintenance.

BPO (Business Process Outsourcing) is specialised in Customer Care, both front office and back office. As at 30 September 2016, revenues totalled Euro 3.8 million, compared to Euro 6 million in the same period of the previous year; in the third quarter of 2016 revenues equalled Euro 1.7 million compared to Euro 1.3 million in the third quarter of 2015. This change can be attributed to the completion of the contract awarded in 2015 relating to a call centre service contract with a leading Italian multinational in the energy sector, concluded in November 2015. In the first quarter of 2016, Exprivia was awarded two important contracts in the energy segment. Their contractual value amounts to about Euro 60 million with a duration of three years. In the first half of the year, one of the two contracts acquired in the Front Office and multichannel area was successfully launched. The gap in revenues recorded as at 30 September 2016 compared to the same period of the previous year was due to the delay in the start of the second contract. Margins have also clearly improved following the stabilisation of the new service launched and particularly with reference to the last quarter.

Industry

In the third quarter of 2016, the results of the Industry BU showed a clear sign of growth in revenues compared to the same period of 2015, confirming the positive trend that began this year. In the third quarter of 2016, revenues amounted to Euro 2.8 million with a 4.7% increase compared to Euro 2.7 million in the same period of the previous financial year.

The industry segment is interpreting the signs of an economic recovery with confidence, by including investments in IT projects in the budget and beginning important technological innovation initiatives.

The customer base was provided with design services, application management services and in-cloud services, as part of mature offers such as those relating to ERP, HCM and extended ERP processes, rather than relating to highly innovative issues, like CRM solutions applied to after sales processes.

Good results were obtained in international rollouts in Europe and the Far East for customers with head offices in Italy.

The experience gained with the SAP Hana platform is of extreme interest for growth prospects, technological innovations brought to the market by the software vendor are adopted with interest by companies, and other projects for technological migration to Hana, including with cloud computing methods, are under way.

Again in terms of the offer, positive results were achieved in the development of web solutions and portals, bringing the efforts capitalised on in our Research and Development laboratories to the market.

Oil & Gas

The Oil & Gas Business Unit recorded revenues amounting to Euro 2.8 million in the third quarter of 2016 compared to Euro 3.6 million in 2015, a 21.9% decrease compared to the same period of the previous financial year.

The scenario of profound transformation in global energy demand and oil commodity price trends are forcing companies operating in the Oil & Gas market to review their long-term investment priorities. Most oil companies are continuing with their exploration programmes, but they are launching drastic operation optimisation programmes, for risk management and to bring systems and procedures into line with the regulatory environment.

The quantitative and qualitative transformation of the ICT spending structure in the Oil & Gas sector is therefore continuing, pushing Exprivia and the main ICT operators in that market to review their offering systems and pricing structures. With its vertical offering and delivery of projects based on the nearshoring model, Exprivia is supporting one of the primary ICT Transformation initiatives of Oil & Gas companies.

In this phase of transition, the third quarter of 2016 closed with revenues down by 14% compared to the previous year, but without Exprivia losing competitive positioning with its customers; indeed, it actually expanded its customer base in the Oil & Gas sector, as is confirmed by the acquisition of several important long-term contracts in 2016. In the third quarter, Exprivia was therefore committed to the delicate phase of transitioning to new contracts, incurring the relative handover costs, in order to initiate new contracts between the last quarter of 2016 and the first quarter of 2017. The increase in costs due to the transition to new contracts and the relative impacts on operating margins were concentrated in the third quarter and strictly linked to the increase in revenues beginning in the last quarter of 2016.

Telco and Media

In the Telco & Media business unit, Exprivia achieved good growth as at 30 September 2016 compared to the same period of last year, amounting to a 5.9% increase in revenues (Euro 14.7 million as at 30 September 2016 compared to Euro 13.8 million as at 30 September 2015), also by enhancing the company's know-how and as a result boosting the number of specialised employees. Revenues in the third quarter of 2016 amounted to Euro 4.6 million, compared to Euro 4.7 million in the third quarter of 2015.

The increase recorded as at 30 September 2016 went against the trend of the telecommunications and media market, which continues to decline, particularly in Italy, demonstrating the significant difficulties which are reflected primarily in the progressive reduction in revenues for each voice/data line, which is being experienced by the majority of operators. However, in this market Exprivia has worked on specialising in the most innovative and relevant aspects for its customers' businesses, primarily by offering services in the areas of "Network Optimization & Transformation", "Next generation OSS Solutions & Services", "Voice & Media Application" and "Carrier grade solution development" as well as for the encrypted VoIP products "Extravox" and "Cryptovox".

Healthcare

The Healthcare Business Unit recorded revenues amounting to Euro 4.9 million in the third quarter of 2016 compared to Euro 5.5 million in 2015, a 10.9% decrease compared to the same period of the previous financial year, while as at 30 September 2016 revenues totalled Euro 16.1 million compared to Euro 16.5 million in the same period of 2015, a decline of 1.9%.

Despite the slowdown in certain projects, during the quarter a significant contract was concluded for the provision of a voice-enabled medical reporting solution for the pathological anatomy services of several diagnostics centres in several European countries.

Public Sector

The Public Sector Business Unit closed the third quarter of 2016 with revenues of Euro 1.5 million, in line with the figure recorded in the same period in the previous year.

In Local Public Administration, the third quarter of 2016, which basically remained stable compared to the third quarter of 2015, did not make up for the significant decrease seen in the first half of 2016. The decline was due to the completion of some important projects. In the course of the third quarter of 2016, several contract renewals were awarded by important Local Entities, which will come into effect in the upcoming quarters. The expected investments linked to Smart Cities, which could represent an occasion for the relaunch of this market, have not yet been seen.

For the Central Public Administration, we are witnessing a continuation in the slowdown in activities for important contracts in the portfolio, trends linked to Spending Review policies and the redefinition of organisational structures in important entities which are customers of the BU.

In the third quarter, this BU was also committed to working on important tenders for leading market players that should be awarded by the end of 2016.

During the third quarter, Exprivia was awarded a new ERP contract by an important research institute.

Aerospace & Defence

The Defence & Aerospace Business Unit closed the third quarter of 2016 with revenues amounting to Euro 2.5 million compared to Euro 0.7 million in the same period of 2015. The change was primarily related to the contribution made by the acquisition of the new equity investment in ACS Srl.

Specifically, Exprivia's Defence sector confirmed performance in line with the contraction seen in a market that is still being held back by reorganisations in the main industrial companies and large entities. In the first part of the year, the first contracts were launched in relation to new domestic and foreign programmes that will be rolled out in the coming months.

The innovative company ACS, which has operated in the market for more than twenty years and develops ground stations for the reception and processing of satellite data, a sector in which it has reached a top global position, joined the Aerospace & Defence Business Unit in the third quarter of 2016. Over the years, ACS has expanded its offering by taking advantage of the opportunities provided by the wide availability of Earth Observation data and the development of new technologies for studying the Earth.

International Business

International business development focused on consolidating the group's presence in markets where companies in the Exprivia Group operate.

In Spain, where the Exprivia Group was present through two subsidiaries, Profesionales de Sistemas Aplicaciones y Productos S.L. (ProSap) and Exprivia S.L., their merger was completed by combining the commercial and technical structures to strengthen the offer of ERP applications and SAP services for industry and distribution, Business Intelligence solutions for the Healthcare sector, and web services (marketing and on-line sales) for Banks and large distribution chains.

In Mexico, where the Exprivia Group operates directly through Prosap Mexico, sales and delivery actions continued with major private and public companies operating in the infrastructure construction sector in Latin America.

The sales and development activities of Prosap Centroamerica, which works in the ERP and SAP services sector in Guatemala and in various Central American countries, are expanding; the branch in Ecuador is participating in a temporary association of companies in several important public and private tenders in the Healthcare segment. Concerning Prosap Peru, sales actions are continuing in the healthcare and telecommunications field to give this company fresh impetus.

In Brazil, business growth continued for Exprivia do Brasil Serviços de Informatica Ltda in the IT Security segment and in the development of telecommunications projects, although the country's economic crisis resulted in GDP falling by 3.8% in 2015 compared to the previous year and a decline in the local currency (BRL) with respect to the euro and the US dollar.

In China, "Exprivia IT Solutions (Shanghai) Co. Ltd", whose sole shareholder is "Exprivia Asia Ltda" in Hong Kong, developed its business in providing professional services in IT infrastructure and SAP. Their customers are currently the Italian companies and institutions operating in China and European manufacturers.

INTER-COMPANY RELATIONS

The organisational structure of the Exprivia Group functionally integrates all staff services of the Group subsidiaries within the consolidation area, thereby optimising the operational structures of each company to ensure effectiveness and efficiency in supporting the business of the Group.

The Administration, Finance and Control Department unites the Group Finance function with the Administration, Finance and Control functions.

The Human Resource Department reports directly to the Chairman of the Exprivia Group, who is the head of the department ad interim.

The Internal Audit, Merger & Acquisition, Corporate Affairs and International Business Departments also report to the Chairman.

The Group companies constantly collaborate with each other for commercial, technological and application development. In particular the following should be pointed out:

  • widespread use of specific corporate marketing and communication competencies within the group including the production of paper, digital and web-based promotional material;
  • centralised management for the supply of specialist technical resources between group companies to manage critical points in turnover and to give all operational units access to highly specialised technical competencies;
  • coordinated participation by Exprivia in public contract tenders with the contribution of all companies according to their specific competencies.

A cash pooling relationship is in place between the Italian Group companies, and all companies adhere to tax consolidation based on a specific regulation.

RELATIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

In compliance with applicable legislative and regulatory provisions, and in particular with:

(i) the "Regulations on transactions with affiliated parties – CONSOB resolution no. 17221 of 12 March 2010" as amended by resolution no. 17389 of 23 June 2010; (ii) the outcome of the subsequent "consultation" published by CONSOB on 24 September 2010; (iii) the CONSOB notice on guidelines for applying the regulations published on 24 September 2010; (iv) CONSOB notice no. 10094530 of 15 November 2010 with additional clarifications.

On 27 November 2010 the Board of Directors of the Company adopted a "Procedure for Transactions with Related Parties", setting forth provisions concerning transactions with related parties in order to ensure the transparency and substantive and procedural correctness of operations with related parties carried out directly or through companies that are directly and/or indirectly controlled by Exprivia ("Exprivia Group").

This procedure replaced the one previously in force, which had been introduced on 26 March 2007.

Transactions with related parties are part of normal business management and are carried out on an arm's length basis. No atypical or unusual transactions were carried out with related parties.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

The company confirms its confidence that the increasingly pervasive spread of digital technologies, the availability of new applications based on big data and mobility and the convergence between telecommunications and cloud computing technologies will enable businesses and the public administration to resume investments despite this environment of weak overall recovery. Indeed, the digital transformation represents an unquestionable necessity in any development plan that organisations may conceive of.
