Management Report

The Group's unaudited consolidated net turnover for the first quarter (Q1) of the 2024/2025 financial year (FY) was EUR 8.53 million, marking a 58% increase compared to the first quarter of FY 2023/2024.

The turnover of the North America and Latin America region amounted to 56%, or EUR 4.7 million. Compared to the same quarter of the previous financial year, the turnover has increased by 51%.

The European region accounted for 39% of the turnover, or EUR 3.3 million, which is 1.2 times higher than in the first quarter of the previous financial year. Turnover in the Asia, Africa, and Middle East region has decreased compared to the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year, accounting for 5% of the total quarterly turnover (or EUR 447 thousand). During the reporting quarter, several projects were completed, the implementation of which had previously been temporarily suspended.

Comparative charts of Q1 sales volumes by region:

In the reporting quarter, the Group's products were sold in 65 countries.

The Group's expenses did not exceed the amounts planned in the budget. The Group continues to invest in the development of new, promising products and product modifications, as well as in sales promotion across existing and new market segments.

The Group ended the first quarter of the 2024/2025 financial year with a profit of EUR 814 thousand (unaudited). The result of Q1 of the previous year was a loss of EUR 1.47 million.

The Group's operations were affected by the global shortage of various electronic components. During the previous period, the company accumulated material reserves to be able to fulfill the majority of orders, ensuring short, or customer-expected, delivery times. Recently, there has been an improvement in delivery times.

The Group's net cash flow during the quarter was EUR 1.75 million. The Group's cash balance in the balance sheet at the end of the period was EUR 3.97 million.

To ensure liquidity, the Parent Company has a Credit Line Agreement with Luminor Bank AS for a total amount of EUR 4.95 million, which had not been utilized at the end of the reporting period.

In the first quarter of the 2024/2025 financial year, EUR 293 thousand were invested in the purchase of fixed assets – primarily to support production and testing processes, as well as for the acquisition of office equipment.

Market Overview

During the quarter, there were no major changes in the microwave radio market. We believe that significant and rapid changes in the microwave radio market are not expected in the near future. SAF regularly collaborates and works with all clients and partners to proactively identify and mitigate risks, as well as explore new opportunities.

The Group has no clients or suppliers in the region affected by armed conflict (Russia, Ukraine, or Belarus); therefore, no impact on order volumes has been observed.

Guidelines

SAF Tehnika is a company with extensive experience and expertise in the development and production of microwave links.

Although the hostilities in Ukraine do not directly impact the Group's operations, overall uncertainty in the business environment persists. The Group continues to monitor potential cost increase forecasts and evaluate associated risks. The company regularly reviews procurement volumes and timelines, ensuring sufficient material reserves to fulfill most orders within standard lead times. This applies to all SAF product families: microwave links, spectrum analyzers, and Internet of Things (IoT).

Even with the modernization of the telecommunications market toward fiber optic communications, there is still a strong demand for radio systems that provide enhanced data rates. Therefore, the Group continues to actively research the market and identify key issues in order to propose necessary product modifications and develop prototypes for next-generation technologies. At the same time, the Group develops IoT solutions for both business and consumer segments, diversifying its product line, creating higher added value for SAF Tehnika product offerings, and increasing the Group's revenue.

The company's goal is to stabilize turnover to ensure a positive net result in the long term. The Board of SAF Tehnika remains cautious and refrains from providing specific sales and performance forecasts.

As of September 30, 2024, the Group had 260 employees (267 employees as of September 30, 2023).
