REVENUE GROWTH OF 29 % IN Q2 – RTX A/S MAINTAINS FULL YEAR OUTLOOK
The financial performance in both Q2 2018/19 and H1 2018/19 was according to plan with revenue growth of 29.2 % and 22.5 % respectively and with EBITDA of DKK 23.1 million in Q2. Revenue growth has been driven by increasing activity in all business areas including the strategic focus areas. RTX A/S maintains the outlook for the full year 2018/19.
SUMMARY FOR THE SECOND QUARTER OF 2018/19 FOR THE RTX GROUP
• Net revenue increased by 29.2 % to DKK 137.9 million in Q2 2018/19 (Q2 2017/18: DKK 106.8 million). FX corrected revenue growth amounted to 21.1 % as revenue compared to last year was positively impacted by the USD/EUR exchange rate development. In addition, the revenue was positively impacted by implementation of IFRS 15 regarding timing of revenue recognition.
Both Business Communications and Design Services achieved revenue growth.
- Business Communications: Revenue growth of 33.4 % to DKK 91.8 million (23.4 % FX corrected revenue growth). Both the handset related product ranges as well as the new strategic focus area within the headset product range contributed to the growth.
- Design Services: Revenue growth of 21.5 % to DKK 46.2 million (17.1 % FX corrected revenue growth) with growth in product sales (customized modules) as one of the strategic focus areas and with continued high activity within customer financed projects.
- Gross profit increased by 20.8 % to DKK 78.3 million in Q2 2018/19 (Q2 2017/18: DKK 64.8 million). The gross margin decreased by 3.9 %-points to 56.8 % (Q2 2017/18: 60.7 %) due to changes in the product mix.
- Operating performance improved with EBITDA increasing by 7.8 % to DKK 23.1 million in Q2 2018/19 (Q2 2017/18: DKK 21.4 million). EBIT was at a similar level as last year with a decrease of 0.2 % to DKK 19.6 million in Q2 2018/19 (Q2 2017/18: DKK 19.6 million). EBITDA and EBIT are impacted by the revenue and gross profit growth and by a planned increase in capacity costs both for ramping-up capacity in order to execute the two major framework agreements announced during 2017/18 and for continuing to build the organization and infrastructure necessary for further growth. Thus, the average number of FTEs reached 272 in Q2 2018/19 compared to 243 in Q2 2017/18.
- • Cash flows from operating activities (CFFO) amounted to DKK 15.0 million in Q2 2018/19 compared to DKK 17.9 million in Q2 2017/18 and were impacted by increased working capital due to the revenue growth and by the ramp-up of the two major framework agreements announced in Q1 and Q3 2017/18.

Management report
The Board of Directors of RTX A/S has today considered and adopted the Group's interim report for the second quarter of 2018/19 (covering the period 1 January 2019 to 31 March 2019). Comments on developments for the second quarter (Q2) and first six months (H1) of the 2018/19 financial year follow below.
CONTINUED REVENUE GROWTH, ALSO IN THE STRATEGIC FOCUS AREAS
In Q2 2018/19, the Group posted revenue of DKK 137.9 million equivalent to an increase of 29.2 % (Q2 2017/18: DKK 106.8 million). Corrected for exchange rate effects the increase equals 21.1 % compared to last year. Both Business Communications and Design Services contributed positively to the revenue growth in line with the implementation of the Group's strategy. In H1 2018/19, revenue increased by 22.5 % to DKK 254.4 million (H1 2017/18: DKK 207.7 million) also positively influenced by growth in both Business Communications and Design Services. Revenue in both Q2 and H1 was positively impacted by the implementation of IFRS 15 when compared to last year.
Business Communications posted revenue of DKK 91.8 million in Q2 2018/19, reflecting a growth of 33.4 % compared to the same period last year (Q2 2017/18: DKK 68.8 million). Corrected for exchange rate effects the growth was 23.4 %. Driving the growth within Business Communications were the headset business program as well as increased sales to enterprise customers of handsets and
base stations. Sales within the strategic focus area of headsets for call centers and offices gained further momentum in Q2 2018/19. In H1 2018/19 revenues increased by 25.6 % to DKK 169.0 million (2017/18: DKK 134.6 million) driven primarily by the same growth factors as in Q2. Further, the revenue in both Q2 and H1 was positively influenced by the implementation of IFRS 15 slightly advancing the point of time for revenue recognition in some situations.
In Q2 of 2018/19, Design Services realized a revenue growth of 21.5 %, reaching DKK 46.2 million (Q2 2017/18: DKK 38.0 million). Corrected for exchange rate effects the growth was 17.1 %. Growth within Design Services was primarily driven by growth in product sales (customized modules) in accordance with the strategic focus of the business unit. Additionally, customer financed projects contributed to the growth. In H1 2018/19 revenues increased by 16.8 % to DKK 85.3 million (2017/18: DKK 73.1 million) driven by the same growth factors as in Q2. Further, the revenue in both Q2 and H1 was positively influenced by the implementation of IFRS 15 slightly advancing the point of time for revenue recognition in some situations.
The gross profit of the Group increased by 20.8 % to DKK 78.3 million in Q2 2018/19 (Q2 2017/18: DKK 64.8 million) driven by the increased revenue level. With the product mix containing a relatively higher proportion of product sales relative to customer financed projects compared to last year, gross margin decreased by 3.9 %-points to 56.8 % in Q2 2018/19 (Q2 2017/18: 60.7 %). In H1 2018/19 gross profit amounted to DKK 145.1 million which is a growth of 19.1 % compared to last year (H1 2017/18: DKK 121.8 million).
Capacity costs increased as planned in Q2 2018/19 reaching DKK 60.4 million compared to DKK 49.7 million in

the same period last year. The higher capacity cost level is predominantly driven by ramping-up capacity in order to execute the newest major framework agreements announced during 2017/18 and by continuing to build the organization and infrastructure necessary for further growth. This is reflected in a significantly higher average number of FTEs of 272 in Q2 2018/19. Further, the increasing capacity cost level was driven by the growth for customer financed projects in Design Services.
In line with the strategic focus areas in the form of own financed development projects in both business units, the Group capitalized development costs of DKK 5.1 million in Q2 2018/19 (Q2 2017/18: DKK 6.3 million) and of a total of 9.1 million in H1 2018/19 (H1 2017/18: DKK 9.7 million). Among other, this includes the product development activities for the strategic adjacency expansion in the form of headsets which continued with a focus on further development of wireless models.
Operating performance before depreciations and amortizations (EBITDA) improved by 7.8 % to DKK 23.1 million in Q2 2018/19 (Q2 2017/18: DKK 21.4 million). For H1 2018/19 EBITDA decreased by 3.6 % to DKK 33.7 million (H1 2017/18: DKK 34.9 million).
Depreciations and amortizations reached DKK 3.4 million in Q2 of 2018/19 (Q2 2017/18: DKK 1.8 million) with the development primarily caused by own financed development projects such as the headset product series as well as the gaming platform.
Operating profit (EBIT) amounted to DKK 19.6 million in Q2 2018/19 which is in line with last year (Q2 2017/18: DKK 19.6 million). In H1 2018/19 EBIT declined by 13.7 % to DKK 27.4 million (H1 2017/18: DKK 31.7 million). The decline
in the first six months must be seen in the light of an increased investment in capacity to meet the future growth potential in the latest signed framework agreements within headset and handsets.
Profit before tax for Q2 of 2018/19 amounted to DKK 21.7 million (Q2 2017/18: DKK 18.3 million) reflecting a positive development in net financial items. Profit after tax amounted to DKK 17.2 million in Q2 of 2018/19 (Q2 2017/18: DKK 14.3 million).
EQUITY, CASH AND SHAREHOLDER FOCUSED INITIATIVES
The equity ratio amounted to 76.9 % at the end of the second quarter in 2018/19 (Q2 2017/18: 80.3 %). The Group's total assets were DKK 405.5 million at the end of second quarter in 2018/19 corresponding to an increase of 20.9 % compared to the same time last year (Q2 2017/18: DKK 335.3 million) driven primarily by higher trade receivables due to the higher activity level compared to last year.
The Group realized a positive cash flow from operations (CFFO) in Q2 of 2018/19 of DKK 15.0 million compared to DKK 17.9 million in Q2 of 2017/18, impacted by increased working capital due to the revenue growth and by the ramp-up of capacity for executing the two major framework agreements announced in Q1 and Q3 2017/18. In H1 2018/19, cash flow from operations was DKK 28.0 million (H1 2017/18: DKK 38.1 million).
The Group's total cash funds and current securities less bank debt amounted to DKK 171.1 million at the end of Q2 2018/19 (Q2 2017/18: DKK 138.8 million), i.e. an increase of 23.3 % compared to the same time last year. The level is positively impacted by cash generated by operations in the

Notes
1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The interim report is presented in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, and additional Danish disclosure requirements for interim reporting of listed companies. An interim report has not been prepared for the Parent.
Starting 1 October 2018 RTX implemented IFRS 15 – Revenue from contracts with customers effective from the financial year 2018/19. As mentioned in the annual report 2017/18 RTX implements the standard using the modified retrospective method and only apply IFRS 15 to contracts not completed at 1 October 2018. The net effect of transition to IFRS 15 has been adjusted to the opening balance of retained earnings in equity at 1 October 2018.

The new accounting standard especially affects timing of revenue recognition from products triggered at transfer of control and revenue recognition from Non-Recurring-Engineering contracts. Implementing IFRS 15 increases the profit by DKK 7.1 million and equity by DKK 7.8 million.
The implementation of additional new and amended standards has to a minor degree impacted the consolidated financial statement and balance sheet.
Except for effects mentioned above, the accounting policies applied in this interim report are consistent with those applied in the Company's annual report 2017/18. We refer to the annual report 2017/18 for a more detailed description of the accounting policies.
2 ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS
The preparation of interim reports requires management to make financial estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policy and recognised assets, obligations, income and expenses. Actual results might be different from these estimates.
The material estimates that management make when applying the accounting principles of the Group and the material uncertainty connected with these estimates and assumptions are unchanged in the preparation of the interim report compared to the preparation of the annual report as per 30 September 2018.
