CFO, Member of the Management Board
In the fourth quarter of the financial year 2017/2018, the Group's unaudited consolidated net turnover was 3 million euros, which is down 40% compared with the fourth quarter of the financial year 2016/2017, when the historically largest turnover was achieved over the last ten years. The sales volume for the period is 3% higher than in the third quarter.
The turnover of North/Latin Americas was 58% or 1.75 million euros. Compared with the same quarter last financial year, the region's turnover has decreased by 50%. The high turnover last financial year in this period was due to the implementation of a specific project in the specified region.
The turnover in the European and CIS region was 32% or 954 thousand euros, which is equivalent to the average regional turnover and is the same as in the third quarter this year, but 25% less than in the previous financial year. The successful result of the reference period was due to the development of a specific custom-tailored data transmission solution.
In the AMEA (Asia, Middle East, Africa) region, the turnover was 10% or 0.3 million euros. Compared with the same quarter of the previous financial year, the region's turnover decreased by 20%. Likewise, this region's great result in the fourth quarter of the previous financial year was related to the implementation of a larger individual project.
In April-June period of the financial year, SAF Tehnika participated in several important trade shows. In North America: ISC West, UTC Telecom & Technology; The Trade Show, Mountain Connect Conference, IMS. Moreover, SAF PhoeniX solutions for video broadcasting were demonstrated at NAB Show, which is the largest trade show for U.S. broadcasters. In Europe: the military exhibition AFCEA (Germany); Tradetech exhibition dedicated to financial solutions (the Netherlands), Critical Communications World (Germany), Eurosatory (France).
In the reference quarter, Aranet brand products were announced in North America, including the presentation of Aranet PT100 Sensor and Aranet Signal Test Sensor. An information campaign on carbon dioxide gas hazards at schools has been implemented. The campaign addressed both local and international schools, local authorities and parent organizations. The project also included a animation that was published both on the Aranet website and Aranet YouTube channel.


During the reporting quarter, the Group sold its products in 43 countries.
The Group's unaudited consolidated turnover of the financial year 2017/2018 was 13.4 million euros, which is 21% less compared to the revenues in the same period last financial year. Fluctuations in turnover depend on the growing percentage of projects, replacement of equipment generations and product portfolio auditing, especially in segments of standard equipment.
During the period of 12 months, sales in North/Latin Americas made 57% of the total Group's turnover, or 7.66 million euros, which is a 22% drop against the results of the previous financial year. 34% of the total turnover was made by profits in the European and CIS region, having decreased by 19%, or 1 million euros, compared with a year earlier. The successful result a year earlier was due to the development of a specific custom-tailored data transmission solution. Revenues from the AMEA (Asia, Middle East, Africa) region decreased by 24%, or 388 thousand euros, thus making 9% of the Group's total turnover.

Comparative charts of 12-month sales volumes by regions:
The Group's costs did not exceed the planned levels but were generally higher than during the same period a year ago due to investments in the development of new products that are expected to enter the market in the coming financial year.
The Group completed Q4 of the financial year 2017/2018 with a profit of 6 thousand euros (unaudited). The Group's net results were positively affected by the USD/EUR exchange rate in the reference period, allowing to cut the annual losses from exchange rate fluctuations by 150 thousand euros.
The unaudited consolidated result of the financial year 2017/2018 is the loss of 214 thousand euros (of which 170 thousand euros is the effect of the USD/EUR exchange rate). In the previous financial year (2016/2017), the Group's result was the profit of 1.7 million euros
The Group had a negative cash flow during the financial year, equaling to (-) 3.3 million euros. In December 2017, dividends were paid in the amount of 0.67 euros (sixty seven cents) per share, or 1.990 million euros in total.
As of the end of the reference period, the Group's net cash balance was 3.13 million euros. In the financial year 2017/2018, 225 thousand euros were invested in acquisition of fixed assets.
The microwave radio market has not experienced any rapid changes during the last quarter, and, in our opinion, is not expected to any time soon, however, competition is growing, especially as regards standard equipment.
There is still an increase in demand for radio systems that provide enhanced data transmission rate and can be enhanced and updated in order to improve data usage.
SAF Tehnika is the company with the long-term competence in development and production of microwave radios.
The Group continues to explore market requirements and problematic issues in order to be able to provide necessary product modifications.
The goal of the Company is to stabilize sales levels to ensure a positive net result in the long term. The Board of SAF Tehnika maintains caution and cannot provide a sales and performance forecast.
On 30 June 2018, the Group had 187 employees (191 employees on 30 June 2017).
