CFO, Member of the Management Board
For Q3 of the FY 2015/2016, the Group's unaudited consolidated net turnover was 3.03 million EUR, which is by 10%, or 0.2 million EUR, more than in Q3 of the FY 2014/2015, but by 12% less than in Q2 this year.
The major part of the turnover in Q3 (45%), or 1.35 million EUR, was made by sales in North/Latin Americas, which is by 38% less than in Q2 this year, when the turnover increase was related to the development of data transmission solutions and products tailored to specific customer needs. This region's result is by 4% worse than in Q3 last year.
The European and CIS region gave 41% of the turnover in Q3. The region's turnover increased by 35% as compared to the same quarter of the previous FY and Q2 this year. The above fluctuations are due to implementation of individual projects.
In the AMEA (Asia, Middle East, Africa) region, revenues of Q3 have exceeded the average level of the previous year, amounting to 14% from the total turnover. That is by 33% more than in the previous quarter, which became possible owing to specific projects.
During Q3, SAF Tehnika participated in 3 exhibitions, including "Telecom Infra" in Rotterdam, Netherlands, and two large-scale exhibitions in North America: "WISP America 2015" in Las Vegas, USA, and TESSCO One show in Phoenix, USA. In Q3 this year, Integra product line trainings were first organized for customers in North America. A company's newsletter is prepared and sent to customers on a regular basis, as well as articles are published in various publications of partners/distributors and trade papers. With the purpose to increase the company's recognition among young specialists, SAF Tehnika participated in Career Days – the annual event organized by Riga Technical University, which attracts a wide range of interested parties.

Comparative charts of Q3 revenue breakdown by regions:
The Group's products were sold in 47 countries during the reporting quarter.
For 9 months of the FY 2015/2016, the Group's unaudited consolidated turnover was 10 million EUR, which is a 4% increase compared to revenues at the same period of the previous financial year. Revenue from the European and CIS region decreased by 2%, or by 59 thousand EUR. At the same time, revenues from the AMEA (Asia, Middle East, Africa) region show considerable increase (33% increase as compared to 9 months of the FY 2014/2015) amounting up to 1.44 million EUR, thus making 14% from the Group's total turnover within 9 months. Despite a decrease in Q3, North/South Americas (during a period of 9 months) still generate 50% from the total turnover of the Group, which is 5 million EUR, and demonstrate a 2% increase as compared to the result of the first 9 months of the previous financial year.

Comparative charts of sales volumes (within 9 months) breakdown by regions:
The Group's costs did not exceeded the planned levels but in total were bigger than during the same period a year ago due to investments into current and new markets for sales promotion, and changes in compensation. Revenues of the reporting period were less than planned, which resulted in a negative profit before taxes and interest payments – 61 thousand EUR.
The Group closed Q3 of the FY 2015/2016 with the loss of 251 thousand EUR (unaudited), which is by 697 thousand worse than in Q3 of the previous financial year. The falling USD/EUR exchange rate at the end of March had a negative impact on the Group's activity net result. It should be noted that the biggest EUR/USD rate difference is exactly between the two comparison quarters.
The unaudited consolidated result for 9 months of the FY 2015/2016 is the profit of 353 thousand EUR, which is by 578 thousand less, comparing to the Group's result of 9 months of the previous FY 2014/2015 (the profit of 932 thousand EUR). The profit of 9 months of the previous financial year was largely made by revenues from currency fluctuations – the profit of 425 thousand EUR last year versus the loss of 150 thousand EUR this year.
The Group had a positive net cash flow during 9 months of the FY, equaling to 1.34 million EUR. As of the end of the financial year, the Group's net cash balance was 5.6 million EUR. In December 2015, dividends were paid in the amount of 0.34 euros (thirty four cents) per share, or 1.009 million euros in total.
Speaking from the perspective of SAF Tehnika, the microwave radio market has not experienced any rapid changes recently. A demand for SAF products and services was satisfactory and in line with the trends of the previous reporting years, when Q3 showed lower quarterly figures.
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. Such requirements increasingly set the trend for introducing new products, including both SAF Tehnika and the market in general.
The Group continues to explore market requirements and problematic issues in order to be able to provide necessary product modifications.
SAF Tehnika is the company with the long-term competence in development and production of microwave radios. SAF Tehnika will proceed with its work on new high-quality products for the microwave data transmission market, providing not only standardized solutions, but also product modifications in order to meet customers' special needs, as well as searching innovative ideas for applying microwave data transmission. The Group is financially stable. The goal of the Company is to stabilize sales levels to ensure a positive net result in the long term. Although the result of the reporting period is negative, the Board of SAF Tehnika maintains cautious optimism but cannot provide certain prognosis for sales figures and operational results.
On 31 March 2016, the Group numbered 183 employees (there were 172 employees on 31 March 2015).
