Q and A submitted before webinar (1)
- How has business environment developed in last 3-4 months? How these changes are impacting company results?
As we mentioned earlier US import tariffs on China manufacturing products put East European manufacturers in competitive position for US market. It is required some time to develop new relationships. The same time global business uncertainty created by it creates some negative effects in the global market. It is complicated to predict how both effects combine.
Increasing investments in EU 5G networks will positively effect future sales development. In 2019 Q2 HansaMatrix already started to supply electronic circuits for 5G network base stations.
- How it is planned to improve profitability? Does company have any pricing power to transfer increasing personell costs to clients?
Company has ongoing plan for several years to compensate for increasing costs caused by salary inflation. (1) investments are focused to increase of productivity of each worker; (2) partly (however not immidiatelly) cost level can be transferred to customers;



Q and A submitted before webinar (2)
3.Any new significant customers recently?
In Q3 Company has started to ship products to 2 new customers: (1) Human Machine Interface industrial products (yearly amount ~2M EUR) to professional customer in EU and (2) Industrial products (yearly amount around ~1.3M EUR) to customer outside EU; expected to start business with 2 more medium size accounts from Nordic countries.
4.Any longer term changes in product mix?
All additional new business comes with lower margin products, what was expected in planning and therefore medium term margin guidance is sligthly lower then margin for current product mix.
5.Judging from the second quarter financial report, it seems that HansaMatrix has started to develop 5G technology. How much income from the total revenue do you expect 5G technologies to bring HansaMatrix in nearest quarters?
Provisionally we can expect part of Data networks product group covers 5G. We would presume 10...15% of product sales could be 5G related.
