Zane Jozepa CFO, Member of the Management Board
For Q4 of the FY 2014/2015, the Group's unaudited consolidated net turnover was 3.22 million euros, which is by 7% or 0.2 million euros less than in Q4 of the FY 2013/2014 and by 17% more than in Q3 of this FY 2014/2015.
Almost half of the turnover of the reporting quarter (47%) was made by revenues from North/Latin Americas, while the region's turnover decreased by 20% and 0.38 million euros as against the same quarter last year, but was by 7% more than sales volumes in Q3 this year, thus at large equalizing revenue distribution by quarters. Sales in the European and CIS region totaled 44% from the Q4 turnover. The region's turnover rose by 6% as compared to sales in the same quarter of the previous FY and was by 55% or 0.5 million euros more than in Q3 FY 2014/15, owing to the Group's ability to provide necessary products and services to specific customers. However, the CIS part in the region's revenue is still rather small. Sales in the AMEA (Asia, Middle East, Africa) region equaled 9% of the turnover during the quarter and rose by 30% as against Q3 of the previous FY, but a bit less than in Q3 of this FY.
During Q4 of the FY 2014/2015 SAF exhibited at UTC America Latina show in Florianopolis, Brazil, and the Wireless Infrastructure Show 2015 in Florida, USA, as well as kept working on the ongoing marketing activities such as updating company's product brochures and marketing materials. A Germany-based global TV production company Deutsche Welle shot a feature story about SAF Tehnika for their global business news outlet with the intention to broadcast it globally in English, German, Russian, and Spanish. SAF Tehnika also engaged in the media campaign in one of the biggest and most notorious African Telecom magazines Africa Outlook. The campaign was aimed at describing SAF business operations and highlighting success stories within the African continent and surrounding islands. Apart from the above, SAF kept developing its product portfolio and announced a few highly anticipated product updates such as Integra-W and 11GHz Integra-S.

Chart 1. Q 4 revenue breakdown comparative charts:
The Group's products were sold in 61 countries during the reporting quarter.
For 12 months of the FY 2014/2015, the Group's unaudited consolidated net turnover was 12.82 million euros, which represented 7% increase comparing to revenues generated in the respective period of the previous financial year. There was a 34% decrease in revenues in the AMEA region, whereas the Americas region has shown a significant positive trend (20% year to year increase) with the total 12 months turnover rise to 6.4 million euros, comprising 50% of the total Group's 12 months turnover. Sales in Europe and CIS countries gave 5 million euros or 39% of the total revenue presenting a quarterly growth. The turnover increase in both regions compensates a drop in AMEA revenues.


The Group's expenses did not exceed the planned levels. In January 2015 SAF Tehnika increased salaries for some employees, thus giving recognition and investing in employee retention, as well as made additional accrual for bonuses. During the first three quarters of the year, the Group experienced a positive impact of the favorable EUR/USD rate. For 12 months of this FY, the total revenue from changes in the currency exchange rate equaled 407 thousand euros.
The consolidated non-audited net result of the Group for Q4 of the FY 2014/2015 was 278 thousand euros profit.
The consolidated non-audited net result of the Group for 12 months of the FY 2014/2015 was 1.2 million euros profit, which is greater by 1.1 million euros as compared to the Group's result for 12 months in the previous FY 2013/2014 (i.e. 127 thousand euros).
The Group's net cash flow for the 12 month period of the financial year was positive – 237 thousand euros. As of June 30, 2015, the Group carried a net cash balance (excluding interest bearing liabilities) of 4.3 million euros. The Group used a part of free cash flow in the amount of 1.89 million euros to make short-term investments.
It should be noted that SAF Tehnika has received financing from EU funds amounting to 0.4 million euros for product development and support for marketing, 0.441 million euros were spent for purchasing non-current assets during this financial year.
In the FY 2014/2015, SAF Tehnika bought back the shares of its 50% owned enterprise "SAF Services", thus becoming the sole owner of "SAF Services". The Group plans to use "SAF Services" in future to merchandise other/new products of "SAF Tehnika" in the North American market.
SAF Tehnika is not observing any significant and sudden changes on the radio market. There are certain increases and drops of demand across the spectrum of customer segments, but in overall there are no signs of caution in the foreseeable future.
There is a definite growth of demand for radio systems able to provide or to be upgraded into providing higher capacity to the user. This trend is increasingly shaping product development directions of both SAF Tehnika and other players on the market.
SAF Tehnika is the company with the long-term competence in the market niche of microwave radio, proven capable to deliver products of notable quality to general market and to differentiate by developing custom-tailored solutions. The Group is financially stable and capable to withstand economic turmoil. The task for the Group is to continue development of next generation wireless data transmission devices focusing on functionality, product cost reduction, customer satisfaction, efficient production, and internal operations. The goal is to regain sales levels to ensure a positive net result in the long term. Due to the intense competitive pressure, the Board of SAF Tehnika cannot provide certain prognosis for sales figures and operational results.
On June, 2015 the Group employed 173 people (170 people on June 30, 2014).
