Interim Management Report

b~êåáåÖë=

PSI Group increased new orders in the first quarter of 2018 by 19 % to the record value of 93 million euros (31 March 2017: 78 million euros). The order book volume on 31 March 2018 was, with 174 million euros, about 7 % above the value for the previous year (31 March 2017: 163 million euros). Group sales improved primarily thanks to the growth in the field of electrical grids by just about 5 % to 45.7 million euros (31 March 2017: 43.8 million euros). The EBIT increased by 7 % to 2.8 million euros (31 March 2017: 2.6 million euros), the Group Net Result improved by 8 % to 1.9 million euros (31 March 2017: 1.8 million euros).

Energy Management, which, as of the first quarter of 2018 consists of the areas energy grids, energy trading, public transportation and the South-Asian business, achieved 11 % higher sales of 22.4 million euros (31 March 2017: 20.2 million euros) in the first quarter. The EBIT for the business improved compared to the previous year to 1.1 million euros (31 March 2017: 0.9 million euros). Electrical grids showed a strong increase in new orders, in particular due to the rollout of the GLDPM module (Generation and Load Data Provision Methodology), which, with the data exchange between the distribution grid operators and the transmission grid operators, also provides the basis for distribution grid autopilots. The gas and oil business saw a drop in the backlog of demand in the oilproducing countries following the increase in the price of oil. In Russia, however, the awarding of some contracts for gas networks and metals production has been delayed as a result of sanctions. In Southeast Asia, PSI had a significant recovery of both sales and profits. In the public transportation business, PSI won an important contract from the operator of the Berlin underground, BVG.

Sales in Production Management (raw materials, industry, logistics), which as of the first quarter also includes the Polish business, were, with 23.3 million euros, just slightly below the figure for the previous year (31 March 2017: 23.5 million euros). The market launch of PSIpenta ERP and POM (Production Order Management), that have also been migrated to the PSI Java Platform, and MES (Manufacturing Execution System) that has been recently reimplemented based on group standard modules still requires resources. This business should be heading for growth with regular customers as well as new customers starting in the summer. The EBIT for the segment was improved by 4 % to 2.1 million euros (31 March 2017: 2.0 million euros).

The metals industry business significantly increased its volume of new orders in the USA, in the automobile industry PSI obtained an important contract for completing a production suite in electrical vehicle production. Above all, artificial intelligence, metals and logistics contributed to the increase in profits. The integrated production and logistic process in the production of electrical vehicles as well as comprehensive practical examples from the industrial application of artificial intelligence are currently being presented at the 2018 Hannover Trade Fair.

cáå~åÅá~ä=mçëáíáçå=

The cash flow from operating activities was characterized by changes in working capital and improved significantly to 6.3 million euros (31 March 2017: –0.2 million euros). Liquidity, which increased slightly to 42.6 million euros (31 March 2017: 42.2 million euros), will be used for the proposed dividend payment, sales financing in the seasonal business and for the financing of targeted acquisitions.

^ëëÉíë=

Compared to 31 December 2017, there have not been any material changes in the Group's assets.

mÉêëçååÉä=aÉîÉäçéãÉåí=

The number of employees in the Group increased to 1,701 as of 31 March 2018 (31 March 2017: 1,613). The focus of new recruiting was once again in Germany and other industrial countries in Europe and North America.

mpfJpÜ~êÉë=

The PSI stock ended the 1st quarter of 2017 with a final price of 17.25 euros 6.8 % below the final 2017 price of 18.51 euros. In the same period the technology index TecDAX declined by 1.4 %.

oáëâ=oÉéçêí=

The estimate of the corporate risk has not changed since the Annual Report for 31 December 2017.

lìíäççâ=

In the upcoming quarters, PSI expects to continue the positive trend in orders in industrialized countries and will therefore double its capacity in the USA to 50 employees. In the raw materials exporting countries the backlog in demand will continue to be reduced; in Germany, PSI expects new orders to continue to increase in the energy sector in advance of the coming regulatory base years.

PSI will increase maintenance earnings, upgrade and cloud sales to over 60 million euros in 2018. Overall, the PSI management continues to forecast growth in the upper singledigit range for 2018. In view of the current general conditions, the management now expects an EBIT with double-digit growth to over 15 million euros.

The business activities of PSI Software AG and its subsidiaries relate to the development and sale of software systems and products fulfilling the specific needs and requirements of its customers, particularly in the following industries and service lines: utilities, manufacturing, logistics and transportation. In addition, the Group provides services of all kinds in the field of data processing, sells electronic devices and operates data processing systems.

The PSI Group is divided into the core business segments energy management and production management. The company is listed in the Prime Standard segment of the Frankfurt stock exchange.

The company is exposed to a wide range of risks that are similar to other companies active in the dynamic technology sector. Major risks for the development of the PSI Group lie in the success with which it markets its software systems and products, competition from larger companies, the ability to generate sufficient cash flows for future business development as well as in individual risks regarding the integration of subsidiaries, organisational changes and the cooperation with strategic partners.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the period from 1 January 2018 to 31 March 2018 were released for publication by a decision of the management on 23 April 2018.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the period from 1 January 2018 to 31 March 2018 were produced in compliance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting". The condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not contain all the data and notes prescribed for the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for 31 December 2017.

Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts arise when revenues have been recorded but the amounts cannot be billed under the terms of the contracts. Such amounts are recoverable from customers upon various measures of performance, including achievement of certain milestones, completion of specified units or completion of the contract. Costs and estimated earnings contain directly allocable costs (labour cost and cost of services provided by third parties) as well as the appropriate portion of overheads including pro rata administrative expenses.

The development of the segment results can be found in the Group segment reporting.

Segments of the PSI Group:

  • Energy Management: Intelligent solutions for energy suppliers from the electricity, gas, oil and district heating markets and for public transportation. Focal points are reliable and economically sound control system solutions for intelligent energy grid management and the safe operation of traffic infrastructures as well as trade and sales management in the liberalised energy market.
  • Production Management: Software products and solutions for production planning, special tasks in production control and efficient logistics. Focuses are the optimisation of the use of resources and the increase of efficiency, quality and profitability.

In the first quarter of 2018, segment reporting was changed by the split of the Infrastructure Management segment. The PSI Incontrol Group allocated to the former Infrastructure Management segment until 31 December 2017 and PSI Transcom GmbH were re-allocated to the Energy Management segment. PSI Polska Sp. z o.o., which was allocated to the former Infrastructure Management segment until 31 December 2017, was re-allocated to the Production Management segment.
