NET INSIGHT INTERIM REPORT JANUARY - MARCH 2013

Net Insight AB [publ] Corporate Reg. No 556533-4397

First Quarter 2013

  • Net Sales of SEK 62.4 million (76.6) corresponding to a decrease of 18.6% compared to the same period previous year. The decrease in comparable currencies amounts to 14.0%.
  • Operating earnings of SEK -5.0 million (5.2), corresponding to an operating margin of -8.0% (6.7).
  • Earnings per share of SEK -0.01 (0.01).
  • Total cash flow of SEK -7.6 million (-11.0).

STABLE REPEAT BUSINESS BUT A LACK OF LARGER ORDERS

Unlike the first quarter 2012 we invoiced no large projects in the first quarter of this year. Revenues reached 62,4 MSEK (76,6 MSEK). In comparable currencies that means revenues 14 % below the same period in previous year. Operating earnings were negative -5,0 MSEK (5,2) and the cash flow was negative -7,6 MSEK (-11,0).

The current market situation, explained in our annual report and in previous interim reports, with project delays and declining average order size, is still affecting our revenues negatively. The first quarter was again affected by project slippages in the EMEA region, causing deviation from previous year. We continued to win a larger number of projects but for the moment, at lower revenues per project. At the same time as I am disappointed with the level of revenues and our financial performance during the last three quarters, I do see a large number of business opportunities that would change that picture.

Our repeat business was stable during the first quarter. We also won further DTT business in Western Europe, Eastern Europe and in Latin America. Revenues are down at the moment but the gross margin remains strong at 55,8 % (61,1). The decrease in the gross margin compared with previous year, is only a function of increased depreciations on R&D, reported under cost of goods sold and therefore affecting the gross margin. The underlying project margin (the gross margin and adding back R&D depreciation) remains very strong at over 70%.

During the NAB exhibition in Las Vegas in April we demonstrated new products e.g. the Nimbra VA 210 which attracted significant interest. The Nimbra VA 210 is a product that significantly enhances the picture quality and thereby the user experience for video transported over the public internet.

Looking ahead, we now have new products coming to market that will help us and our partners do more business with existing as well as new customers.

Stockholm, May 3, 2013 Fredrik Trägårdh CEO

EVENTS DURING THE FIRST QUARTER

Customer Wins

During the first quarter the business area Broadcast and Media Networks (BMN) represented 68% of total revenues and the business area Digital Terrestrial TV networks (DTT) represented 27%. During the quarter there was a good flow of repeat business from customers across the world. Net Insight has received an order for a multi-purpose provincial BMN network in China. There is a growing demand for Net Insight's products in China where Net Insight now has more than 20 customers. In the DTT area an expansion was announced for a network in Eastern Europe.

Partner Network

The revenues from our indirect sales reached 57% of our total revenues. Net Insight has more than 50 resellers in our partner network.

Marketing

Net Insight's major event for the first quarter was CABSAT MENA in Dubai, the main regional event in the Middle East area for the media and broadcast industry. At the show the newly launched NImbra VA 210 was demonstrated which gained a lot of attention from our customers. Net Insight also participated in events in USA, Malaysia and China.

The media coverage generated in trade magazine during the quarter handled topics around our customer Arqiva in the UK, Net Insight's presence in China, the Net Insight view on remote production and the Net Insight Service aware media network concept.

New Product Introduction

During the quarter two newly launched products the Nimbra VA210 and the Nimbra 640 were released for delivery. There was initial invoicing for the Nimbra 640 during the quarter. Thorough market introduction work has been done for the Nimbra VA 210 to shorten time-to-market, through marketing activities, product demonstrations and training.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE END OF THE PERIOD

In the end of April Net Insight announced that Fredrik Trägårdh; Chief Executive Officer, leaves Net Insight for a new position. Fredrik Trägårdh continues in his current position until the end of the second quarter 2013.

At the annual general meeting the decision was taken to elect three new members of the board; Cecilia Beck-Friis, Crister Fritzon and Regina Nilsson. Lars Berg, Gunilla Fransson and Anders Harrysson were re-elected members of the board. Lars Berg was re-elected chairman of the board. Bernt Magnusson, Arne Wessberg, Clifford H. Friedman and Fredrik Trägårdh declined re-election.

SALES AND EARNINGS

Net Sales for the first quarter amounted to SEK 62.4 million (76.6), which represents a year over year decrease of 18.5%. In comparable currencies the decrease amounted to 14.0%. Revaluation of accounts receivables in foreign currencies had a negative effect on Net Sales of SEK 0.9 million compared to a negative effect of SEK 1.7 million for the same period last year.

The decline in sales is mainly attributable to the EMEA region mainly due to large wins in Q1'12 not being repeated in the first quarter of 2013. Americas showed a slight increase whereas APAC came in SEK 3.3 million short of the corresponding quarter last year.

NET SALES PER REGION

Q1 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q2'12- Full year
Amount in SEK million 2013 2012 2012 2012 2012 Q1'13 2012

Totalt 62,4 76,6 75,0 60,3 68,3 266,0 280,3

Sales in the Broadcast & Media business area amount to 68% (80) of total sales and Digital Terrestrial TV accounted for 27% (20). IPTV/CATV accounted for 5% (0) of the turnover.

Hardware revenue amounted to SEK 43.9 million (54.5). Sales of software licenses decreased by SEK 4.4 million to SEK 7.5 million (11.9) whereas support and service revenue increased to SEK 11.8 million (11.4). The above figures are exclusive of other revenues of SEK -0.8 million (-1.2) which mainly consists of revaluation of the accounts receivables stock in foreign currencies.

As shown in the condensed income statement on page 11, the Gross margin is 55.8% (61.1).The decrease is attributable to lower revenues in combination with increased depreciation on capitalized R&D expenditures. Adjusted for depreciation on capitalized R&D expenditures, the Gross margin increases by 1.5 percentage points to 73.3% (71.8).

Total operating expenses for the first quarter amounted to SEK 39.8 million (41.6). Sales and marketing expenses amounted to SEK 25.1 million (26.8). The decrease is related mainly to fewer sales and sales support staff. Administrative expenses have decreased by SEK 0.2 million to SEK 6.6 million (6.8). Although R&D expenditures have decreased by SEK 3.9 million to SEK 23.1 million following a reduction in staff and consultants, R&D expenses are in line with previous year at SEK 8.2 million (8.1). This is due to a lower level of capitalization.

Operating earnings amounted to SEK -5.0 million (5.2), which correspond to an operating margin of -8.0% (6.7)

The financial net amounted to SEK 0.3 million (0.1).

Earnings before tax amounted to SEK -4.7 million (5.3), which corresponds to a profit margin of -7.5% (6.9).

Net income amounted to SEK -4.6 million (5.3) resulting in a Net Profit margin of -7.3% (6.9). Remaining tax losses carried forward amount to SEK 205.7 million on Group level.

CASH FLOW AND FINANCIAL POSITION

Cash flow in the first quarter amounted to SEK -7.6 million (-11.0). The negative first quarter cash flow is primarily related to decreased cash flow from ongoing operations before changes in working capital.

Liquid funds at the end of the period totaled SEK 178.3 million (185.2).

Total shareholders' equity amounted to SEK 498.8 million (496.9) with a resulting equity ratio of 87.7% (85.8).

INVESTMENTS

First quarter investments in tangible assets amounted to SEK 0.0 million (0.2) and depreciation of tangible assets amounted to SEK 0.4 million (0.5). Investments in other intangible assets amounted to SEK 0.0 million (0.0) and depreciation amounted to SEK 0.3 million (0.2). Capitalization of development expenditures totaled SEK 15.0 million (18.9). Depreciation of capitalized development expenditures totaled SEK 10.9 million (8.2).

At the end of the period, net book value of capitalized development expenditures amounted to SEK 187,2 million (167,4).

EMPLOYEES

At the end of the period Net Insight had 146 (155) employees. The parent company Net Insight AB had 135 (144) employees, Net Insight Intellectual Property AB 5 (5) and the US subsidiary Net Insight Inc. had 6 (6) employees.

PARENT COMPANY

The parent company's net sales during the first quarter amounted to SEK 86.0 million (97.6). Net income amounted to SEK 0.2 million (-61.5). The net income of the first quarter last year was negatively affected by an adjustment of Group internal charges for development expenditures, which resulted in a one-time charge affecting the Net Income in the Parent company by SEK 68.3 million. This adjustment did not affect over-all Group results.

RISK AND SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS

Net Insight's operation and results are impacted by a number of external and internal factors. A continuous process identifies existing risks and assesses how each risk shall be managed and mitigated.

The risks to which, the company are exposed are divided into market related risks (including competition, technology development, political risks), operational risks (including product reliability, intellectual property rights, litigation and customer dependence) and financial risks.

No additional significant risks or uncertainties than those described in the annual report 2012 have developed in the first quarter.

For a complete description of the Company's risk analysis and risk management, see page 26 in the 2012 Annual report.

SEASONALITY

Based on an average over the last three fiscal years, the seasonality pattern is relatively even. Net Sales in the first quarter amount to 24%, second quarter to 25%, third quarter 24% and the fourth quarter amount to 27% of annual sales.

Net Insight benefits from the general increase in video traffic such as higher consumption of mobile and broadband TV, e.g OTT, adoption of remote workflows and production as well a wider coverage of live events. An important driver is also the conversion to new TV formats in the broadcast and media industry.
