SAF Tehnika (the "Company") is a designer, producer and distributor of digital microwave data transmission equipment. The Company offers comprehensive, cost-effective PDH, SDH and IP broadband wireless connectivity solutions for digital voice and data transmission to fixed and cellular network operators, data service providers, governments and private enterprises as an alternative to cable communications channels.
The Company's net sales for the 12-month period of the financial year 2008/2009 were LVL 8.81 million (EUR 12.54 million) representing 83% of the previous financial year's net sales. The results were mainly impacted by slowing sales in CIS and Asia markets. Europe formed the largest sales portion (29%) and represent a slight decrease on a year-on-year basis (-1%). Although sales in the CIS decreased substantially from the beginning of the calendar year 2009, it was the second largest region by sales contribution in the financial year 2008/2009 (19%). The largest revenue increase (+26%) was reached in the African region where intensive sales endeavours brought results and 1.37 million LVL (EUR 1.95 million) sales were recorded. The Company's products were sold in 79 countries during financial year 2008/2009. 11 of them were new markets. The Company's aggregate exports for the reporting period is LVL 8.41 million (EUR 11.97 million) comprising 95.46% from total net sales which is by largely on par with the prior financial year. The sales strategy of servicing a wider geographical customer base continues to provide a buffer in the current challenging environment.
The net loss of the Company for the financial year 2008/20079 is LVL 1.117 million (EUR 1.589 million) which mainly reflects lower sales and falling margins due to a lack of funding for investments for SAF Tehnika's clients and increasing competition. The loss was notably impacted by allowances recorded for bad and doubtful trade receivables for one Russia client amounting to 245 thousand LVL (348 thousand EUR) due to information received about significant liquidity problems of it. (sales were originally made during the second half of 2008). An extraordinary item relating to the divestment of a subsidiary SAF Tehnika Sweden amounting to LVL 249 thousand (EUR 355 thousand) was a further contributor.
During the reporting year the Company invested LVL 103 thousand (EUR 146 thousand) in product certification, development and production software, production equipment and IT.
In order to promote the popularity of SAF brand, present Company's product news, strengthen the positions of SAF in the telecommunication market and to find new clients and partners SAF Tehnika has participated in several regional and international telecommunication and information technology exhibitions. Among them "CeBIT 2009" in Hannover, Germany, and "Sviaz ExpoComm 2009" in Moscow, Russia were the largest. Participation was co-financed by European Regional Development Fund in those events.
The Company keeps an ongoing focus towards the development of latest CFIP product line, to expand it beyond already well received CFIP 108 Mbps FODU all Outdoor radio system. Continuous product support and maintenance is provided for CFM and CFQ product line radios.
An agreement on the buy-out of the capital shares of the Swedish subsidiary "SAF Tehnika Sweden" was signed in November 2008 between SAF Tehnika and a company representing the current management of "SAF Tehnika Sweden" - "Trebax". Since then the former subsidiary operates as an independent company, but continues to provide services for SAF Tehnika on development of data transmission equipment.
A joint company in Russian Federation under the name of SAF Tehnika RUS Ltd (САФ Техника РУС 000) and Russian company named "Мобильные технологии" ООО as its co-founder was established in November 2008 with the aim to increase the sales of SAF Tehnika products in Russia, but has not started its operations due to economical situation in the region and currently is dormant.
Even in such tough conditions SAF Tehnika continues to roll out new products from the CFIP family to satisfy customer needs for higher capacity products and recover reducing sales for CFM products. The Company is planning to launch new products outside the scope of traditional licensed point to point MW radios in 7-38Ghz during coming periods. A solid financial condition (net cash rather than net debt) allows the Company to maintain general operations at their previous level and increase the sales team's local presence in all regions. The Company's focus will be the further development of sales activities in North America where significant sales growth is expected already in the first part of the financial year 2009/2010 and Asia where the Company has already established a solid local presence. Further growth is planned in the present most active region - Africa. There will be ongoing attention on the reduction of production expenses by looking for more efficient product design and improvement of internal processes with the goal to end the financial year 2009/2010 with a profit.
The Board is proposing to use retained earnings from previous periods to cover losses of the financial year 2008/2009 and not to pay dividend.

To the shareholders of AS "SAF Tehnika":
We have audited the accompanying unconsolidated financial statements of AS "SAF Tehnika" (the Company), which comprise the Company's balance sheet as at 30 June 2009, and the income statement of changes in equity and cash flow statement for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes.
Management is responsible for the preparation of these unconsolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union. This responsibility includes: designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these unconsolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
In our opinion, the unconsolidated financial statements of the Company give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Company as of 30 June 2009, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.
We have read the report of the Management Board (pages 4 to 5) of the annual report and we have not identified any material discrepancies between the historical information presented in these reports and the unconsolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2009.

The financial statements on pages 8 to 38 were approved by the Board and signed on its behalf by:
Normunds Bergs Chairman of the Board
The core business activity of SAF Tehnika A/S (hereinafter – the Company) comprises the design, production and distribution of microwave radio data transmission equipment offering an alternative to cable channels. The Company offers approximately 200 products to mobile network operators, data service providers (such as Internet service providers and telecommunications companies), as well as state and private companies.
The Company owned 100% subsidiary "SAF Tehnika Sweden" AB until November 2008 when it was sold to "SAF Tehnika Sweden" AB management.
A joint company in the Russian Federation under the name of "SAF Tehnika RUS" Ltd (САФ Техника РУС OOO) with a Russian company named "Мобильные технологии" (Mobile Technology) OOO as its co-founder was established in the November 2008. JSC "SAF Tehnika" owns 51% of the shares of "SAF Tehnika RUS" Ltd. Up to now "SAF Tehnika RUS" has not started its operations.
The Company is a public joint stock company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Latvia. The address of its registered office is Ganību dambis 24a, Riga, Latvia.
The shares of the Company are listed on NASDAQ OMX Riga Stock Exchange, Latvia.
These unconsolidated financial statements were approved by the Board on 28 October 2009.
The principal accounting and measurement policies adopted in the preparation of these unconsolidated financial statements are set out below:
The financial statements of SAF Tehnika have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the EU. IFRS as adopted by the EU do not currently differ from IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and currently effective for the purpose of these financial statements, except for certain hedge accounting requirements under IAS 39, which have not been adopted by the EU. The Company has determined that the unendorsed hedge accounting requirements under IAS 39 would not impact the Company's financial statements had they been endorsed by the EU at the balance sheet date. The accounting policies used by the Company are consistent with those used in the previous accounting period.
In the current year, the Company has adopted:
• IFRIC 14, 'IAS 19 – The limit on a defined benefit asset, minimum funding requirements and their interaction', provides guidance on assessing the limit in IAS 19 on the amount of the surplus that can be recognised as an asset. It also explains how the pension asset or liability may be affected by a statutory or contractual minimum funding requirement;
• IFRIC 12 Service Concession Arrangements (effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2008, however, not yet adopted by EU). The interpretation addresses how service concession operators should apply existing International Financial Reporting Standards to account for the obligations they undertake and rights they receive in service concession arrangements.
• IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes (effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2008). The interpretation specifies how customer loyalty programs should be accounted for.
The adoption of the above Standards and Interpretations did not have an impact on the financial statements of the Company.
Items included in the financial statements are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the functional currency). The financial statements are presented in lats (LVL), which is the Company's functional and presentation currency. According to the requirements of Riga Stock Exchange, all balances are also stated in euros (EUR). For disclosure purposes, the currency translation has been performed by applying the official currency exchange rate determined by the Bank of Latvia, i.e. EUR 1 = LVL 0.702804.
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the income statement.
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Such cost includes the cost of replacing part of such plant and equipment if the asset recognition criteria are met.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.
Current repairs are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets to allocate their cost less the estimated residual values by applying the following depreciation rates:
| % per annum |
|---|
| 50 |
| 33.33 |
| 20 |
| 25 |
Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the estimated useful life of leasehold improvement and the term of lease.
The assets residual values, useful lives and methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year-end. An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount exceeds its estimated recoverable amount (see Note F).
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the respective carrying amount and included in the income statement.
Trademarks and licenses have a definite useful life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is calculated on a straight-line basis to allocate the costs of trademarks and licenses over their estimated useful life, which usually is 3 years.
Acquired computer software licenses are capitalised on the basis of the purchase and installation costs. These costs are amortised over their estimated useful lives of three years.
Research costs are expensed as incurred. An intangible asset arising from the development expenditure on an individual project is recognized only when the Company can demonstrate the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale, its intentions to complete and its ability to use or sell the asset, how the asset will generate future economic benefits, the availability of resources to complete and the ability to measure reliably the expenditure during the development. Following the initial recognition of the development expenditure, the cost model is applied requiring the asset to be carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Any expenditure capitalized is amortized over the period of the expected future sales from the related project.
Intangible assets that are not put in use or have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are reviewed for impairment on an annual basis. Assets that are subject to amortisation and depreciation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less selling costs and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows (cash-generating units).
A geographical segment provides products or services within a particular economic environment that is subject to risks and benefits different from those of components operating in other economic environments. A business segment is a group of assets and operations providing products or services that are subject to risks and benefits different from those of other business segments.
Government grants are recognized where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attaching conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognized as income over the period necessary to match the grant on a systematic basis to the costs that it is intended to compensate. Where the grant relates to an asset, the fair value is credited to a deferred income account and is released to the income statement over the expected useful life of the relevant asset by equal annual instalments.
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is stated on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Costs of finished goods and work-in-progress include cost of materials.
Receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Allowance for impairment of receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect the full amount due according to the original terms. The amount of the allowance is measured as the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate. Change in allowance is recognised in the income statement.
Cash and cash equivalents comprise current bank accounts balances and deposits, and short-term highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are charged against the share premium account.
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest rate method. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company is entitled to postpone the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date.
Borrowing costs are recognized as an expense when incurred.
Deferred tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. However, if the deferred tax arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business acquisition that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss, it is not accounted for. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.
Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Company and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
The Company makes social insurance contributions under the State's health, retirement benefit and unemployment schemes at the statutory rates in force during the year, based on gross salary payments. The Company will have no legal or constructive obligations to pay further contributions if the statutory fund cannot settle their liabilities towards the employees. The cost of these payments is included into the income statement in the same period as the related salary cost.
Revenue comprises the fair value of the goods and services sold, net of value-added tax, discounts and inter-Group sales. Revenue is recognised as follows:
Sale of goods is recognised when a Company entity has passed the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods to the customer, i.e. delivered products to the customer and the customer has accepted the products in accordance with the contract terms, and it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Company (b) Rendering of services
Revenue is recognised in the period when the services are rendered.
Leases of property, plant and equipment in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease period.
Dividends payable to the Company's shareholders are recognised as a liability in the Company's financial statements in the period in which the dividends are approved by the Company's shareholders.
At the date of authorisation of these financial statements the following Standards and Interpretations were in issue but not yet effective:
The Company anticipates that adoptions of the above Standards and Interpretations will have no material impact on the financial statements of the Company in the period of initial application.
The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks:
The Company's overall risk management focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise its potential adverse effects on the Company's financial performance. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to hedge certain risk exposures.
The responsibility for risk management lies with the Finance Department. The Finance Department identifies and evaluates risks and seeks for solutions to avoid financial risks in close co-operation with other operating units of the Company.
The Company operates internationally and is exposed to foreign currency risk mainly arising from U.S. dollar fluctuations.
Foreign currency risk primarily arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets – cash and trade receivables and liabilities – accounts payables and borrowings. To manage the foreign currency risk arising from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities, the Company uses forward foreign currency contracts. The foreign currency risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency different from the entity's functional currency. The Finance Department analyses the net open position in each foreign currency. The Company might decide to enter to forward foreign currency contracts or to maintain borrowings (in form of credit line) in appropriate currency and amount.
From time to time the Company has significant exposure of credit risk with its customers. The Company's policy is to ensure that wholesale of products is carried out with customers having appropriate credit history. If the customers are residing in countries with high credit risk, then Letters of Credit issued by reputable credit institutions are used as credit risk management instruments. In situations where no Letters of Credit can be obtained from reputable credit institutions, the prepayments from the customers are requested.
As at 30 June 2009, the Company's credit risk exposure to a single customer amounted to 17.00 % of the total trade receivables (30.06.2008: 17.00%). With respect to credit risk arising from the other financial assets of the Company, which comprise cash and cash equivalents and derivatives, the Company's exposure to credit risk arises from the default of the counterparty, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments. The Company's maximum credit risk exposure amounts to LVL 4 263 696 or 55.71% to total assets (30.06.2008: LVL 4 448 094 or 49.56% to total assets).
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding through short-term borrowings secured by the Letters of Credit terms. Due to the dynamic nature of the core operations, the Finance Department aims to maintain flexibility in funding by obtaining available credit lines. During the reporting period 3 million EUR multicurrency credit line was available assigned by Nordea bank Finland plc Latvia branch. Since April 2009 the credit line amount was decreased to 1 million EUR evaluating potential necessity. The assigned overdraft facility has not been used as at 30 June 2009. (see Note 16 Borrowings)
As the Company does not have significant interest bearing assets, the Company's income and cash flows are largely independent of changes in market interest rates. The Company's cash flows from interest bearing liabilities are dependent on current market interest rates.
The Company uses derivative financial instruments such as forward currency contracts to hedge its risks associated with foreign currency fluctuations. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value on the date on which derivative contract is entered to and are subsequently remeasured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as assets when the fair value is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative.
Any gains or losses arising from changes in fair value of derivatives that do not qualify as hedge accounting are taken directly to profit or loss for the year.
The fair value of forward currency contracts is calculated by reference to current forward exchange rates for contracts with similar maturity profiles.
The carrying amounts of all financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair value.
The Company manages its capital to ensure that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern while maximizing the return to stakeholders through the optimization of the debt and equity balance.
The capital structure of the Company consists of debt, which includes the borrowings disclosed in note 16, cash and cash equivalents and equity, comprising issued capital, retained earnings and share premium.
The gearing ratio at the year-end was as follows:
| 30/06/2009 LVL |
30/06/2008 LVL |
30/06/2009 EUR |
30/06/2008 EUR |

| Net debt (-cash) | -1 344 796 | -463 093 | -1 913 472 | -658 922 |
| Equity | 6 650 832 | 7 767 833 | 9 463 281 | 11 052 630 |
| Debt to equity ratio | 15% | 16% | 15% | 16% |
| Net debt to equity ratio | -20% | -6% | -20% | -6% |
International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU and the legislation of the Republic of Latvia require that in preparing the financial statements, the management of the Company make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of off-balance sheet assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The following are the critical judgements and key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the balance sheet date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year:

Deferred income tax asset for the Company is recognised to the extent that the realisation of the related tax benefit through the future taxable profits is probable.
Reporting period tax losses in the amount of LVL 741 467 (EUR 1 055 012) and previous period tax losses in the amount of LVL 633 102 (EUR 858 137) can be used to offset taxable profit for 8 proceeding taxable years from the year of origination of tax loss. Due to uncertainty of realisation of the accumulated tax losses the Company has not recognised deferred tax asset related to these losses.
As at 30 June 2009, the registered, issued and paid-up share capital is LVL 2 970 180 (EUR 4 226 185) and consists of 2 970 180 ordinary bearer shares with unlimited voting rights (2007/2008: 2 970 180 shares).

a) The Company's operations may be divided into two major structural units by product type – CFM (PDH) and CFQ (SDH) product lines. The new CFIP products belong to the CFM product type (super PDH). These structural units are used as a basis for providing information about the primary segments of the Company, i.e. business segments. Production, as well as research and development are organised and managed for each product line (CFM and CFQ) separately.
The CFM product line, or plesiochronous digital hierarchy radio equipment, is offered as a digital microwave radio communications system operating over 7, 8, 13, 15, 18, 23, 26, and 38 GHz frequency bands, as well as ensuring wireless point-to-point channels for digitalised voice and data transmission. CFM is available with 4, 8, 16, or 34 Mbps full-duplex data transmission rate. The demand for this product in Asia basically accounts for this market share.
CFIP radio is capable to provide up to 108Mbps of bit rate to all interfaces combined. This product family provides a perfect solution for a user looking for higher than PDH E3 capacity without need for STM-1 capacity. Apart from the full system capacity of 108Mbps, it is possible to configure the radio to any of 7 MHz, 14 MHz and 28MHz channel bandwidths.
The CFQ product line, or synchronous digital hierarchy radio equipment, is a digital point-topoint radio system providing high capacity (up to 155 Mbps) data transmission over from 7 to 38 GHz frequency bands. The product is basically exported to developed European countries where the demand for high capacity data transmission possibilities is dominating.
