The region of North/Latin Americas had the turnover of 69%, or 2.1 million euros, being 14% lower compared with the same quarter of the previous financial year, when high turnover was related to the implementation of a specific project in that region. However, it exceeds the final quarter results of the previous financial year by 20%, or 345 thousand euros.

Sales in the European and the CIS region represented 590 thousand euros, or 19%, which is below average figures for the region, and were 50% less than the previous financial year. Successful results of the reference period were related to the development of the data transmission solution tailored to customer-specific needs.

The turnover in the AMEA (Asia, Middle East, Africa) region was 11%, or 0.3 million euros. The region's turnover increased by 16% compared with the same quarter of the previous financial year.

During the reporting period, the Group participated in various industry shows in Columbia, US, and Europe, including IBC Amsterdam, which is the world`s most influential media and technology show. SAF has published various publications in industry related journals about latest additions to Spectrum Compact and ARANET product series. In addition to regular marketing activities, SAF Tehnika maintains SAF Blog by publishing Case studies and topicalities there. A noteworthy event during the period was the involvement of SAF Tehnika to ensure the live broadcast of the visit of His Holiness the Pope Francis in Latvia, by providing portable link solutions.

Market Overview

The microwave radio market has not experienced any rapid changes over the past quarter, and we believe no such changes are expected in the near future, however, competition is increasing, especially in the segment of standard equipment.

There is still an increase in demand for radio systems that provide enhanced data transmission rate and can be enhanced or updated in order to increase data transmission capacity.

Guidelines

SAF Tehnika is the company with long-standing experience and expertise in microwave radio development and production.

The Group continues to explore market demand and problematic issues in order to be able to provide necessary product modifications, as well as continues investments in product development, increasingly focusing on the diversification of its product portfolio.

The Company's goal is to stabilize sales levels to ensure a positive net result in the long term. The Board of SAF Tehnika retains caution and refrains from making certain predictions regarding future sales volumes and financial results.

On 30 September 2018, the Group had 193 employees (there were 191 employees on 30 September 2017).
