ASETEK - Q4 2013 Strong revenue increase and solid operational development

Feb 26, 2014 - Asetek had record high revenues in both the fourth

quarter and full year 2013. The company received its second commercial

order for RackCDU in the quarter. A study performed by Lawrence Berkeley

National Labs validated Asetek's claim of 50% and higher reductions in

data center cooling costs with RackCDU D2C products.

Fourth quarter revenues came in at $ 6.1 million, a 45% increase from

the same period last year. The increase reflects the fulfillment of a

large order of PC graphics cooling products, as well as progress

achieved on the data center retrofit contract with the U.S. Department

of Defense. For the year 2013 revenues were $20.7 million, up 11% from

last year.

Operating profits from the desktop segment were $1.1 million, over 80%

higher than the fourth quarter of 2012. Operating losses from the

datacenter segment increased to $2.0 million from $1.7 million in the

same period last year. The figure reflects continued investments in

development and marketing in the data center segment. Asetek shipped

116,000 patented sealed liquid cooling units in the fourth quarter.

"We are pleased with reaching our financial targets for both the quarter

and the full year 2013," says André Eriksen CEO of Asetek. "In addition,

our operational milestones this quarter are at least as important for

the company going forward. We received validation of our energy savings

claim for RackCDU from a highly recognized study, supported by two

industry-leading companies, Intel and Cisco. We anticipate that this

third party validation and subsequent white paper will accelerate

RackCDU market adoption. Also, our data center business continues to

receive orders and strengthen its position in a market where we hope to

see great development in 2014".
