Condensed consolidated interim financial statements

30 June 2014

Report of the Board of Directors

First half 2014

This report covers the business activity and financial results of NedSense enterprises n.v. (the 'Company' or 'NedSense') for the half-year ended 30 June 2014.

Growth Strategy

After the successful launch of its highly innovative 3D customer experience technology LOFT, NedSense has continued its focus on the development of the LOFT suite of products. In line with current technology developments and on and offline customer behavior, LOFT is available through a variety of media, from in-house enterprise deployment with full functionality across the entire product range to a slim cloud-based service for more mobile use. Customers can access and use the products through multiple internet supported devices, be it PC's or tablets. Loft has already shown its ability to execute in furniture retail (with implementations at Crate and Barrel, Havertys, Trendhopper, Carpet Court and DFS) as well as manufacturers (with implementations at Kravet, Donghia, Leolux, Thonet and Rubelli). LOFT is continuing its growth in market share in the furniture industry.

LOFT's strategy in Real Estate is to connect the worlds of real estate and furniture retail, enabling retailers to connect to the customer exactly when they need to; at the moment when they are looking to buy or rent a new house. At the same time, the realtor is able to provide the customer with a visualization of the house as their new home, helping swing the decision making.

The LOFT experience engine will continue to be enhanced thanks to the cooperation between the growing base of new clients, and our technology and marketing partners in the industry. The LOFT development roadmap also includes the addition of optional space planning footage like 3D scans and construction plans.

Although currently Loft's year-over-year revenue is gradually improving, entering the Real Estate industry will enable us to monetize the LOFT technology to its full potential.

On the 25th of August NedSense announced the sale of the NedGraphics division, which is fully in line with the company's strategy. With the divestment of NedGraphics, NedSense can now focus all its efforts and capital on the further development of LOFT.

Financial results

In June 2014, it was decided that the NedGraphics operating segment would be held for sale. The financial results of this segment is therefore presented in the statement of comprehensive income as part of discontinued operations.

NedSense ended the first half of 2014 with a net loss of €1,057 thousand (first half 2013: €871 thousand loss). The decreased result is mainly the combination of a higher NedGraphics operating profit, offset by an increased LOFT operating loss.

Including the results of NedGraphics, NedSense realized a gross profit of €4,206 thousand compared to €4,353 thousand in the first half of 2013, a decrease of 3%. The gross profit for NedGraphics was down 2% while the gross profit was down 26% for LOFT primarily due to increased cost of sales.

NedGraphics' operating cost decrease of 5% compared to the similar period in 2013, had an immediate impact on the segment's profit from operations, which increased from a profit of €454 thousand in the first half of 2013 to €536 thousand in the first half of 2014.

The Loft division reported sales of €271 thousand as compared to €277 thousand in the first half of 2013. Due to a combination of the increased cost of sales noted above, as well as the blended result of decreased capitalized production with higher software amortization costs for this maturing product line, the segment's profit (loss) from operations was €683 thousand negative.

The Other operating segment includes the activities of the holding and the discontinued operation Dynamics Perspective.

Cash flow

The operational cash flow in the first half of 2014 amounted to €1,262 thousand positive (first half 2013: €846 thousand positive). The increase is mainly due to decreased operating expenses at NedGraphics. The cash flow from investments in the first half of 2014 was €1,208 thousand negative (first half 2013: €1,400 thousand negative), due to decreased investments in software development mainly in LOFT. The cash flow from financing in the first half of 2014 was €0 (first half 2013: €2,509 thousand).

The total change in cash and cash equivalents in the first half of 2014 amounted to €54 thousand positive (first half 2013: €1,955 thousand positive).

Balance sheet

As noted above, in June 2014, it was decided that the NedGraphics operating segment would be held for sale. The assets and liabilities of this segment are therefore presented in the statement of financial position as assets held for sale as of 30 June 2014.

From 31 December 2013 intangible assets including NedGraphics increased from €10,961 thousand to €11,005 thousand. This increase is mainly due to the investment in software development for the LOFT product line. Current receivables including NedGraphics decreased from €4,449 thousand to €2,450 thousand as the Company collected most of the outstanding maintenance invoices which were submitted at year-end 2013. Primarily due to the net loss in the first half of 2014 of €1,057 thousand, total equity decreased from €6,293 thousand as of 31 December 2013 to €5,324 thousand as of 30 June 2014.

Due to negative results in the past few years, NedSense has tax losses that may be carried forward. These tax assets are not capitalized in the balance sheet as management is currently not certain that sufficient taxable profits will be made in the near future to realize the value of these tax assets.

The solvency decreased to 34.9% at 30 June 2014, from 36.8% at 31 December 2013 due to the net loss in the first half of June 2014. The number of outstanding ordinary shares, with a nominal value of €0.10 each, was 28,596,495 as of 30 June 2014 as well as 30 June 2013.

Outlook

In the second half of 2014, NedSense will continue to deploy its strategic growth plan. As the order pipeline for the Loft division has improved, NedSense expects the revenue of LOFT to rise in 2014 versus last year.

NedSense is focused on the further development and rollout of LOFT with several important milestones expected in 2014. Existing customers like Havertys, DFS and Kravet will launch their online- and mobile LOFT implementations, and new customers are expected to start LOFT implementations. In the second half of 2014, the Loft division will launch the BtC/CtC Real Estate platform. Growth acceleration is essential to maintain the current competitive advantage and secure corporate autonomy.

In the third quarter NedSense expects to finalize the NedGraphics sale. Sales of the division are expected to be on par with expectations.

NedSense's strategy is to continue to develop its LOFT sales and marketing efforts, maintain our market knowledge, and sustain our customer base and maintenance contracts, while looking for more opportunities to expand beyond the niche in which we currently operate. We are building and investing in our knowledge heritage, so that we can innovate, lead, and create true economic value for our customers.

Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements

1. Reporting entity

NedSense (the "Company") is domiciled in the Netherlands with registered office at Laanakkerweg 2b, 4131 PA Vianen, the Netherlands. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company as of and for the six months ended 30 June 2014 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group" and individually as "Group entities").

The Company is a holding company, which holds 100% of companies providing integrated, specialized design, production, and planning software to the textile and apparel industries globally.

2. Going Concern

As of June 30, 2014 the Company has a solvency rate of 34.9%. Based on the Company's financial position, the scheduled invoicing of maintenance contracts and the resulting cash inflow in the fourth quarter of 2014 and first quarter of 2015, its assets and the current outlook of the financial performance for the forthcoming year, these condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared based on the going concern assumption.

All aspects of the Group's financial risk management objectives and policies are consistent with those disclosed in the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended 31 December 2013. We continue to tightly manage our cash balance. The uncertainty of sales is the main risk of the Company.

3. Statement of compliance

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. They do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Group as of and for the year ended 31 December 2013. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 28 August 2014.

4. Significant accounting policies

Except as described below, the accounting policies applied by the Group in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as those applied by the Group in its consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended 31 December 2013. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have not been audited or reviewed.

New standards and interpretations:

The Group adopted the following new / revised standards, which are effective for its accounting period starting 1 January 2014:

  • IAS 27 Separate Financial Statements (as revised in 2011, effective 1 January 2014)
  • IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (as revised in 2011, effective 1 January 2014)
  • Amendment to IAS 32 Financial Instrument: Presentation Offsetting Financial Assets and Liabilities (effective 1 January 2014)
  • IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements (effective 1 January 2014)
  • IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements (effective 1 January 2014)
  • IFRS 12 Disclosure of Involvement with Other Entities (effective 1 January 2014)

The adoption of the new / revised standards has no impact on the recognized assets, liabilities, and comprehensive income of the Group.

5. Estimates

The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended 31 December 2013.

8. Property, plant and equipment

Acquisitions and disposals:

During the six months ended 30 June 2014 the Group acquired assets with a cost of €50 thousand (six months ended 30 June 2013: €56 thousand).

No assets with a carrying amount were disposed of during the six months ended 30 June 2014 (carrying amount disposed of during the six months ended 30 June 2013: none). No gains or losses on disposals were realized during the six months ended 30 June 2014 or 30 June 2013. Assets with a carrying amount of €217 thousand were transferred to held for sale (see Note 14) (six months ended 30 June 2013: nil).

9. Intangible assets

Investments for the six months ended 30 June 2014 comprised capitalized production of €1,176 thousand (six months ended 30 June 2013: €1,326 thousand). Capitalized production included both in-house and third party expenses incurred to develop intangible fixed assets (software). For the six months ended 30 June 2014, such in-house expenses amounted to €819 thousand and third party expenses amounted to €357 thousand (six months ended 30 June 2013: €916 thousand and €410 thousand, respectively). Assets with a carrying amount of €7,980 thousand were transferred to held for sale (see Note 14) (six months ended 30 June 2013: nil).

10. Non-current receivables

In 2011, management invested €500 thousand in the share capital of the Company. At the same time the Company provided a loan to management of €500 thousand with an interest rate of 2.5%. These loans have been recognized at fair value taking the market interest rate into account (7.5%). Cash flows to be received (at 2.5%) and the total sum have been discounted

over the expected life of the loan (4 years). With these assumptions, the value of the receivables at 30 June 2014 is €500 thousand including accrued interest.

On 24 April 2013 the company entered into a subscription agreement with the new investor Nantahala in relation to the investment in new shares by Nantahala. The subscription agreement also contained certain new remuneration arrangements which were conditional to the investment by Nantahala. The arrangements have been approved by General Meeting in June 2013. One of the new remuneration arrangements was that the Investors agreed that the loans of Management members with the company shall be written-off. The Supervisory Board however, has postponed a final decision on the write-off as it seeks to minimize tax consequences of this write-off for both the company and Management Board members personally. No costs for the write-off are recorded as of 30 June 2014.

11. Share capital

At 30 June 2014, the issued share capital comprised 28,596,495 ordinary shares (31 December 2013 28,596,495) with nominal value of €0.10, which have been fully paid up.

12. Loans and borrowings

No additional funds were received or repaid during the six months ended 30 June 2014.

13. Share-based payment
