Paris, July 11, 2024 - Ateme (ISIN: FR0011992700) generated revenues of €23.0 million in the Second Quarter of 2024, up 6% year-on-year (same like-for-like).

For the First Half as a whole, revenues were down 17% year-on-year (same like-for-like). This reflects a strong base effect in the First Quarter 2023 when revenues rose 34% on a like-for-like basis.

EMEA revenues were up 34% (same like-for-like) at €18.2 million. The region confirmed its position as the Group's largest market, representing 45% of revenues;

2 Alternative performance indicator, not subject to ATEME's statutory auditors' review: Monthly Recurring Revenue is defined as the sum of (1) the monthly revenue from support contracts in hand, and (2) the monthly revenue from multi-year licensing contracts in hand (capex), and (3) the monthly revenue from license lease contracts (OPEX).

1 At constant exchange rate and perimeter

  • The USA/Canada region generated revenues of €9.9 million, down 61% (same like-for-like), reflecting the above-mentioned base effect in the First Quarter 2023. The market in the US is facing headwinds because of a wave of consolidation in the content industry slowing down investment decisions. Nevertheless, overall yearly pipeline remains strong, and while recovery in the Second Quarter was limited, an acceleration is expected in the Second Half;
  • Asia Pacific revenues continued robust growth, with an increase of 24% (25% like-for-like) to €8.5 million;
  • Latin America revenues were up 35% (34% like-for-like) to €4.2 million, reflecting new commercial momentum.

Monthly Recurring Revenues (MRR3 ) were up by €59 K in the Second Quarter 2024 at €2.6 million, in line with the trend of the First Quarter.

New OTT wins

Over the last three months, Ateme continued to demonstrate the powerful combination of its product lines and was selected by several Tier1 players to support their OTT services:

  • Indonesia's national public broadcasting organization, TVRI, for its transition to 4K UHD OTT streaming.
  • Drei TV, a leading television service provider in Austria, to power its enhanced OTT streaming service.
  • TV+, the new OTT Service of CANAL+.

Michel Artières, Chairman and CEO of Ateme, commented: "The unusual income profile for 2023, with an exceptional Q1 2023, and actual market headwinds in the US require us to progressively close the gap this year, and we will probably have to wait until the end of the year to return to positive growth territory.

All regions are delivering high growth performance in H1 2024, except the relative prudence of the US market puts this region in a challenging situation. While we believe this is a transition effect with no impact on our midterm growth, we are working on reevaluating our objectives for the year when we publish our interim results for 2024.

We consider this a temporary effect that won't impact our mid-term growth. However, we may need to reevaluate our 2024 objectives and to update them when we publish our interim results.

We are proud our technologies are at the core of the big sport event in Paris this summer."
