Management Report

The Company's non-audited net sales for the first quarter of financial year 2011/12 were 2.89 million LVL (4.12 million EUR), representing 92% of the first quarter of the previous financial year. Compared to previous reporting quarter (Q4 FY 2010/11) which was the weakest in previous financial year this quarter shows recovering growth of 45% percent.

Sales in Americas slightly more than doubled amounting to 1.33 million LVL (1.9 million EUR) compared to previous financial year's the first quarter being the largest part of the turnover. Sales in Europe and CIS region decreased by 25% comparing with the 1st quarter of the previous financial year and formed 23% of the quarterly sales. The largest fall in the quarterly sales comparing year-to-year was from sales in Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa region where sales dropped by 46% or by 753 thousand LVL (1.07 million EUR). Company is looking for the most appropriate sales strategies for particular countries in order to regain previous sales levels.

However our customers highly value quality of equipment produced in European Union considering this as one of the key advantages over competitors. Company continues to develop its partner network in US and the recently signed agreement with Crossover Distribution.com Corporation – one of leading value-added distributor of wireless broadband technologies in North America, Canada - will strengthen Company's presence in region and increase its market share. As a major recent success of cooperation with Crossover the Manitoba (Canada) NetSet network project would be named where 200 SAF Tehnika microwave CFIP Lumina links were supplied finalizing deliveries in the reporting quarter (see SAF Tehnika press release 12.04.2011).

During reporting quarter SAF Tehnika participated in several exhibitions in North America and Africa both concerned strategic regions presenting its product offering, solutions, as well as meeting with current and potential customers. The exhibition "NigeriaCom 2011" (Lagos, Nigeria) gathered the most significant representatives and decision makers from telecommunication industry of Nigeria, country experiencing massive telecommunications industry growth. "Canadian Wireless Trade Show 2011" (Toronto, Canada) was the most significant event in North America where SAF Tehnika took part. It has to be acknowledged that after two years of extensive marketing and product promotion activities, as well as major input in sales channel development resulted in much better SAF brand recognition in the North American market.

The Company's products were sold in 56 countries during the reporting quarter.

Chart 1. Quarter 1 revenue breakdown comparative charts:

At present product portfolio of the Company consists of three product lines: CFIP, CFM and FreeMile. CFQ line, as it was reported previously, was phased out due to substantially decreased demand starting from summer 2011. Due to growing interest for fast and easy to install data transmission equipment in un-licensed frequencies the Company has developed products particularly for this segment marketed under product name FreeMile. Even though unlicensed frequency products sales weight in total sales was not significant (4%) comparing to previous financial year first quarter this particular product group shows 39% growth. Demand for the oldest product line CFM radios still remains stable with the trend to gradually diminish.

The net profit of SAF Tehnika for the first quarter of financial year 2011/12 was 477 thousand LVL (679 thousand EUR). The positive material impact on net result were from provision reduction for doubtful debtors as substantial part from old overdue debt was recovered and gains from foreign exchange rate changes as US dollar rate showed upward trend.

The Company's net cash flow for the 3 month period of the financial year was positive - 717 thousand LVL (1.02 million EUR). While the Company's cash generated from operations was negative -247 thousand LVL (-352 thousand EUR), the cash used in investing activities was positive 963 thousand LVL (1.37 million EUR) and free funds amounting to 1 million LVL (1.43 million EUR) were deposited in 2-6 month bank deposits. The Company carried a net cash balance (excluding interest bearing liabilities) of 2.82 million LVL (4.01 million EUR) as at September 30, 2011.

Market overview

The competition in the wireless backhaul equipment market remains fierce. Squeezed by price wars producers are forced to shorten supply chain and return to direct sales approach. Market consolidation in the telecommunication industry continues – both in customers' side and in producers' and solution providers' side. Clients prefer and even require from vendors turnkey solutions. The clients' decision to invest in telecommunication network development to large extent favors suppliers capable to offer longer term financing in some form. For example the Chinese vendors are keen users of government provided financing facilities.

The main discussion in the microwave industry continues about LTE implementation. While standard base and solutions offered by vendors are clearly maturing, the adoption of technology is somewhat held back by global economical uncertainties and small demand for LTE services by users of mobile devices. Nevertheless it is very clear the growing trend to replace TDM technology (SDH/PDH) by Carrier Ethernet technology will be used in backhaul network build-outs in most future deployments. SAF Tehnika is fully prepared for these market changes and already is providing solutions that meet customer requirements.

Guidance

The demand for wireless transmission equipment, which is SAF Tehnika's core product, is expected to be high over the coming years due to increasing usage of mobile devices worldwide. As the growing interest is noted for license-free 17 and 24 GHz frequency range, branded in SAF product portfolio as FreeMile equipment, the Company's plans significantly improve distribution mechanism to make these products more available to customers.

SAF Tehnika will proceed with research and development of next generation wireless data transmission devices in order to meet evolving customer demand on high capacity equipment with ever better network management system. The Company will continue to consider different options for strengthening local presence in target markets. A subsidiary in North America launched in October – SAF North America is just another step in the Company's geographical expansion after the announcement of SAF Middle East foundation.

The Company is financially stable, although due uncertainty in the global telecommunication market the Board of the Company cannot provide certain prognosis for sales figures despite positive results of the reporting quarter.

On September 30, 2011 the Company employed 164 people (148 people on September 30, 2010).

Note 10 Segment information

a) The Company's operations are divided into two major structural units – SAF branded equipment designed and produced in-house – CFM (Hybrid/ PDH Radios), CFIP (Etherent/Hybrid/ superPDH systems) and FreeMile (Hybrid Radios for unlicensed frequency bands) as the first structural unit and 3rd party products for resale, like Antennas, cables, some OEMed products and accessories as the second unit.

CFIP – the major product line is represented by 4 respectable models:

  • a split mount PhoeniX hybrid radio system with Gigabit Ethernet + 20 E1 interfaces;

  • Lumina high capacity Full Outdoor all-in-one radio with Gigabit Ethernet traffic interface;

  • CFIP-108 entry level radio - perfect for upgrade of E1 networks into packet data networks;

  • Marathon FIDU low frequency low capacity system for servicing rural and industrial applications.

All CFIP radios are offered in most widely used frequency bands from 1.4 to 38 GHz, thus enabling the use of CFIP radios all across the globe.

PhoeniX radio represents the type of microwave radio which is taking the commanding role on the market at present. Full Outdoor units of Lumina and 108 modifications are of growing and developing radio type 'all-in-one' which has biggest potential as part of future data/packet networks.

SAF Tehnika was one of the first companies offering Full Outdoor radios from 2003, thus is well positioned to use the past experience for development of next generation product.

CFM microwave radio product line has been the main type of radio SAF has been supplying to the market over many years and is still demanded. Such medium capacity, mature, yet extremely reliable and feature rich radio is still required to deploy telecom networks in developing markets.

FreeMile product line is represented by 2 models covering unlicensed frequency bands in 17 and 24 GHz, which are made available for use in a growing number of countries around the globe.

As demand for CFQ products has decreased substantially, it has been decided to phase out the entire CFQ product line starting from summer 2011, providing the CFQ basic functionality with CFIP PhoeniX M split mount system. The clients' requirements will be covered by full spectrum of CFIP and CFM products. Information about phased out CFQ line is included in the other products unit in order to provide unequivocal information for comparison purpose.

This note provides information about division of the Group's turnover and balance items by structural units by product type for 3 month of the financial year 2011/12 and financial year 2010/11.
