secunet Security Networks AG 9-Month-Report 2010 Investor Relations: Phone +49 (0) 201 5454-1234 [email protected] www.secunet.com
In its Interim Management Report for the first quarter of 2010 (published on 16 July 2010) and the halfyear report on the first half of 2010 (published on 13 August 2010), secunet Security Networks reported a need for correction in relation to the Annual Financial Statements of its Czech subsidiary secunet s.r.o., Prague, as at 31 December 2009. This need for correction had been determined at the end of April 2010 and also meant that there was a need to recognise an impairment charge on the value of secunet Security Networks AG's receivables with secunet s.r.o.
The background to this adjustment was the discovery that the managing director of secunet s.r.o., who has since been dismissed, had been employing forged documents and records to systematically misrepresent and conceal the true asset and earnings position of secunet s.r.o. over a number of years. secunet Security Networks reacted to this discovery immediately and promptly relieved the managing director of secunet s.r.o. of all his duties. In addition, the Management Board commissioned the auditors KPMG AG to conduct a thorough investigation into the events at secunet s.r.o.
At the same time secunet Security Networks AG revised its 2009 Annual Financial Statements and Consolidated Financial Statements, and the Combined Management Report for the company and the group was updated accordingly in the interests of providing transparent, comprehensive and up-to-date information to all recipients of the Financial Statements.
The errors unearthed by the KPMG special investigation into secunet s.r.o., Prague, have been duly corrected in the respective income statement items for the reference year 2009. The corresponding allocation to the relevant income statement items in the individual quarters can no longer be fully determined for the 2009 comparison figures. In accordance with IAS 8, Note 50, identified net banking differences have therefore been recognised under other operating income. As a result, the figures listed in last year's interim financial statements and included in this 9-Month Report have been amended (listed as "amended" figures). These year-earlier figures replace those reported in the 2009 9-Month Report.
The secunet group generated revenue of Euro 38.4m in the first nine months of 2010, an increase of 8% or Euro 2.8m compared with the previous year (Euro 35.6m).
Group revenue experienced strong growth in the third quarter of 2010, rising by 25% from Euro 10.1m in the previous year to Euro 12.6m in the current year. This meant that the revenue fluctuations observed in the first half of the year (Q1 +19% year-on-year, Q2 -2.4% year-on-year) therefore reverted to a positive direction. These fluctuations are the result of secunet's project-based business, which is subject to periodic fluctuations in capacity utilisation.
The secunet group finished the first nine months of 2010 with earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of Euro 0.2m, compared with Euro -1.3m in the previous year. This was primarily due to the significant increase in other operating income, but also to a moderate increase in expense items, which rose by 6% from Euro 37.3m to Euro 39.6m, slightly below the increase in revenue.
Other operating income increased year-on-year from Euro 0.4m to Euro 1.4m.
Costs of materials and purchased services increased by 6% compared with the previous year in the January to September 2010 period, from Euro 13.2m to Euro 14.1m, which was in line with revenue growth.Personnel expenses increased by 7% from Euro 15.4m in the first nine months of 2009 to Euro 16.4m in the same period in 2010, which correlates directly to the increase in the workforce.
The largest relative increase was in depreciation and amortisation, up by 20%, although this represents an absolute increase of only kEuro 118. This was due to a larger inventory of capital goods and the acquisition of low-value assets.
Other operating expenses rose by 5% or kEuro 379, from Euro 8.0m in the first nine months of 2009 to Euro 8.4m in the same period of 2010.
The financial result for the first nine months of 2010 declined from kEuro 265 to kEuro 63 compared with the same period last year. This reflected both declining interest income and large unrealised foreign currency losses.
For these reasons, profit before tax was kEuro -993 in January-September 2009 and kEuro +304 over the same period of the current year. There was a significant increase in the tax burden in the first nine months of 2010 compared with the previous year. The tax liability is in excess of earnings before tax, which is due to the non-deductibility of the impairments on secunet AG's loans to its Czech subsidiary. The result for the January-September period is now kEuro -66, from kEuro -1,028 in the previous year, as a consequence of which earnings per share rose from Euro -0.16 to Euro -0.01.
secunet in Germany is divided into two business divisions, which focus their activities on specific target groups. The Public Sector division caters for authorities and other public sector consumers as well as international organisations. This division generated 81% of the secunet Group's revenue in the first nine months of 2010, unchanged versus the contribution in the previous year.
Of the total group revenue, 19% was generated in the Private Sector division, which addresses the IT security needs of service and industrial companies. This division comprises the business units Business Security (16% of group revenue in the first nine months of 2010) and Automotive Security (3% of group revenue), which is reported under "Other segments". The Business Security business unit generated revenue of Euro 6.0m in the first nine months of 2010, compared with Euro 6.4m in the same period of 2009. This represents a decline of Euro 0.4m or 5%. The main reason for the decline in revenue was a reduction in some IT budgets as a result of savings measures instituted by companies responding to the financial and economic crisis of the last two years.
The Business Security business unit made a negative contribution to group EBIT: after a figure of kEuro -73 in the January to September 2009 period, EBIT came in at kEuro -57 in the first nine months of 2010. This slight improvement in EBIT was the result of a stronger decline in expenses than in revenue.
The Public Sector division incorporates the Government and High Security business units. Broadly speaking, the Government business unit addresses the IT security issues that arise in all e-government applications. Revenue in the first nine months of 2010 fell by 16% in this business unit, from Euro 12.0m in the year-earlier period to Euro 10.1m. This result continued to be influenced by corrections relating to the consolidated Czech subsidiary secunet s.r.o., whose revenue is largely attributed to the Government business unit. The slightly lower capacity utilisation in the second quarter continued to have a detrimental effect. After making a positive contribution to group EBIT in the amount of kEuro 985 in the first nine months of 2009, the Government business unit's contribution in the same period of the current year was a loss of kEuro -105. As in the Business Security business unit, the decline in EBIT can be attributed to lower revenue that was not balanced out by cost savings.
The High Security business unit supplies authorities, the armed forces and international organisations with the SINA product line. The business unit's contribution to group revenue was 55%. Revenue in the High Security business unit rose by Euro 3.1m or 17% year-on-year, from Euro 18.2m to Euro 21.3m. Follow-up orders resulting from major projects and a large number of individual procurements had an impact here. The business unit's contribution to group EBIT increased from kEuro -163 in the first nine months of 2009 to kEuro 207 in the same period of 2010.
"Other segments" made a negative contribution of kEuro 380 to group revenue, with general and administrative expenses having an impact on this figure.
Compared with the situation as at 31 December 2009, there was a decline in secunet Security Networks' total assets of around Euro 8.3m from Euro 43.5m to Euro 35.2m.
On the asset side, this change was due mainly to a decline in cash and cash equivalents, which had fallen by Euro 2.7m or 18% as at the reporting date of 30 September 2010 versus 31 December 2009. At the same time, there was a fall of Euro 7.1m in the high level of receivables by the end of a very strong fourth quarter of 2009 and as a result of invoicing.
This change is matched on the liabilities side in a decrease in other provisions of Euro 1.8m, mainly as a result of the payment of variable compensation components in the first quarter. At the same time, there was a sharp decline in trade payables (down Euro 5.6m) and other liabilities (down Euro 1.2m).
There were no significant changes in secunet Security Networks' other balance sheet items.
secunet has not taken out any loans and therefore reports a debt/equity ratio of 0%.
Cash flow from operating activities was Euro -1.6m in the period from January to September 2010, compared with Euro -6.6m in the same period in the previous year. The difference compared with the previous year can be explained by higher earnings (EUR +1.3m) and an increase in current assets (EUR +6.3m), which was not offset by the increased utilisation of provisions (EUR -2.4m).
secunet invests mainly in the purchase and replacement of hardware, software and other business equipment. Investment rose from kEuro 745 in the first nine months of 2009 to kEuro 1,077 in the same period of 2010. This increase was linked to the headcount growth and various projects to improve internal IT systems.
As at 30 September 2010, the number of secunet Group employees was 290. This represents an overall increase in headcount of ten people or 4% compared with the same reporting date in the previous year. The positions filled were mainly in the advisory, development and sales areas.
No significant change has occurred to the opportunities and risks described in the corrected and updated 2009 Annual Report since the end of financial year 2009.
As at 30 September 2010, secunet Security Networks' order book stood at Euro 21.4m. The volume of orders was down 31% compared with the same reporting date in the previous year (Euro 31.0m). Once again, this was due to the large projects currently in progress. Orders for new large-scale projects are expected.
The business performance of secunet Security Networks mirrors developments in the IT security market, which is expected to grow over the long term. The key driver for secunet's Business Security business unit in 2010 is once again the willingness of companies to invest in IT security consulting and technologies, while the investment behaviour of public sector customers is the crucial factor for the Government and High Security business units. Whereas SINA procurement in the High Security business unit tends to be oriented more towards the long term, demand for IT security in the Government business unit is shaped both by the current debate surrounding savings and budget consolidation (which are both detrimental to demand) and by major infrastructure projects (which stimulate demand). secunet's short-term performance is also strongly influenced by the fact that its business is heavily project-based. A particular factor influencing the results of financial year 2010 is the fact that public bodies are deferring major projects as a consequence of continuing restructuring. This is particularly the case for the army, which is a major client.
The Management Board is maintaining its updated guidance of the current year of revenues of around Euro 57m and EBIT in excess of Euro 2m for the secunet Group. The traditionally strong fourth quarter remains decisive in realising this.
This 9-Month Report contains statements regarding the future performance of secunet Security Networks and economic and political developments. These statements are opinions that we have formed based on the information currently available to us. If the underlying assumptions are not met or other risks arise, actual results may differ from our expectations. We cannot therefore offer any guarantee as to the accuracy of these statements.

secunet Security Networks' 9-Month Report for the period ending 30 September 2010 was compiled in accordance with the International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 "Interim Financial Reporting".
The consolidation principles and currency translation method for the period from 1 January to 30 September 2010 were in accordance with those in the company's Consolidated Financial Statements for financial year 2006. The recognition and measurement methods were unchanged. The Consolidated Financial Statements of secunet Security Networks AG as at 31 December 2009 were produced on the basis of Sections 315 and 315a of the German Commercial Code (HGB) and in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as they are to be applied in the European Union.
The figures shown in the balance sheet, income statement, cash flow statement and statement of changes in equity correspond to the normal course of business at secunet and do not (with the exception of the events described in connection with the impairment made at secunet s.r.o.) include any extraordinary items.
A tax rate of 31.4% applies to the calculation of income taxes for domestic companies. Calculation of tax payable on income for foreign companies is based on the relevant rates of tax for those countries.
The preparation of the 9-Month Report requires a series of assumptions and estimates on the part of the management. As a result, it is possible that figures reported in the interim report may deviate from the actual figures.
secunet Security Networks discovered the need for adjustments to the 2009 quarterly financial statements of its Czech subsidiary secunet s.r.o., Prague.
The errors unearthed by the KPMG special investigation into secunet s.r.o., Prague, have been duly corrected in the respective income statement items for the reference year 2009. The corresponding allocation to the relevant income statement items in the individual quarters can no longer be fully determined for the 2009 comparison figures. In accordance with IAS 8, Note 50, identified net banking differences have been shown under other operating income, and the cost of materials has been purged of fictitious (erroneous) supplier invoices.
Corrections for all other erroneous and fictitious transactions have been booked to other operating expenses.

As a result, the figures listed in last year's interim financial statements and included in this 9-Month Report have also been amended (listed as "amended" figures). These year-earlier figures replace those reported in the 2009 9-Month Report.
In addition to secunet Security Networks, all subsidiaries whose financial and operating policies secunet has the power to govern are included in the consolidated financial statements. In the reporting period and in financial year 2009, there were no minority interests in equity or in the profit or loss for the respective periods.
Compared with 31 December 2009, the consolidated group was unchanged as at 30 September 2010.
As at 30 September 2010, the company held 30,498 treasury shares, the same figure as at 31 December 2009; this equates to 0.5% of its share capital.
The secunet group is divided into the Public Sector division, made up of the High Security and Government business units, and the Private Sector division, made up of the Business Security and Automotive Security business units. The High Security, Government and Business Security business units are shown separately for the purposes of segment reporting, as they meet at least one of the quantitative thresholds defined in IFRS 8.13. The Automotive Security business unit does not meet any of the quantitative thresholds laid down in IFRS 8.13 and is therefore reported together with general and administrative areas under "Other segments". The segments were identified on the basis of the internal reporting structure of the company as set out by the management within the meaning of IFRS 8.5.
The High Security business unit addresses the highly complex security requirements of authorities, the armed forces and international organisations. At the core of its offering is the Secure Inter-Network Architecture, SINA, developed in conjunction with the Federal Office for Information Security (Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik, BSI).
The Government business unit supports authorities in Germany and abroad in all areas relating to e-government and IT security. These include biometric solutions and electronic ID (eID) documents, health services (eHealth), security validation and secure web solutions. This business unit operates a BSI-certified evaluation laboratory for IT conformity.
The staff of the Business Security business unit focus on security issues affecting industrial companies. Its product line includes security analyses and information security management, electronic signature and B2B integration, single sign-on and network security. In all areas, analyses, consulting and complete solutions are tailored to each customer's specific requirements.
The Automotive Security business unit deals with the IT security issues facing automotive manufacturers. With more and more vehicle functions now being computerised, it is becoming increasingly important for both automotive manufacturers and suppliers to ensure that built-in hardware and software components are protected against unauthorised changes.
