Asetek – Q3 2015: Profitability on Continued Revenue Growth

October 28, 2015

• Another quarter of record-level revenue driven by DIY desktop product sales
• Positive net earnings and group EBITDA
• New data center OEM providesorder for largest server installation to date in October
• Expecting fourth quarter 2015 revenues in line with record third quarter level

In the third quarter of 2015, Asetek reported revenue of \$10.0 million, a record level for a second consecutive quarter, with growth of 82% versus the same period of 2014 (\$5.5 million). The development reflects \$9.4 million in desktop revenue principally from the DIY market, and \$0.5 million in revenue from the emerging data center segment. Year to date 2015 revenue totaled \$23.5 million, up 44% from the comparable period of 2014.

Gross margins for the third quarter were 37%, a rebound from the second quarter (27%). The decline from gross margin levels of prior year (45%) reflects the growth in shipments of lower margin DIY products in 2015.

Revenue growth and cost savings resulted in group net income and positive EBITDA in the third quarter.

Operating profits from the desktop segment doubled in the quarter, up to \$2.3 million for the third quarter and \$3.9 million for the first nine months. Revenue growth in the desktop DIY market was driven by high volume shipments toAsetek's largest customer, Corsair.

WhileAsetek continued to invest in its data center segment, operating losses from the segment amounted to \$1.3 million for the third quarter and \$4.5 million for the first nine months. Expenditures relate to technology development, product marketing and business development activities with data center partners and OEM customers.

"New data center customers, growing market adoption of our liquid cooling technology, and another record quarter of revenue makes us excited about our opportunities moving forward," saidAndré Sloth Eriksen, founder and CEO ofAsetek.
