Company Announcement no. 08/2010 26 August 2010
SimCorp's business performed broadly in line with expectations in the first six months of the year. At EUR 85.2m, H1 revenue decreased marginally compared with the year-earlier period. After increased costs for expansion of sales and distribution activities as well as non recurring costs during the six months, EBIT for the period was EUR 5.9m compared with EUR 14.6m in H1 2009.
SimCorp retains its projections for 2010 of a reported revenue growth and an overall business growth of around 10%. The projections are based on the prevailing exchange rates which positively have impacted the projected level for SimCorp's reported revenue growth. In addition it should be noted that the financial forecast is subject to greater uncertainty than in previous years, as part of the growth is assuming conclusion of new license orders this year, which involve some uncertainty in respect of timing and recognition in the income statement. Given the above assumptions and uncertainty, the EBIT margin for 2010 is still expected to be around 22%.
SimCorp's Board of Directors today considered and approved the Group's interim report for the six months ended 30 June 2010. Highlights of the report are:

Interim report as of 30 June 2010 – SimCorp A/S
Overall, SimCorp's business performed broadly in line with expectations in the first six months of 2010.
H1 order intake was EUR 17.8m compared with EUR 20.0m in the same period of last year. Q2 order intake was EUR 9.3m, down 32% from EUR 13.7m in Q2 2009. The far most predominant part of the order intake was the sale of add-on licences to existing customers, which for the six months recorded an increase of 38% compared with the same period of last year.
Income recognised from licences and add-on licences was EUR 15.0m in H1 2010, down 32% compared with the same period of last year. Income recognised from licences and add-on licences was EUR 9.7m in Q2, 34% less than in the year-earlier period.
The order book, which has been retained at the same level as at 30 March, stood at EUR 17.6m at 30 June 2010, which is a decline of EUR 0.1m relative to the end of the same period of 2009. Exchange rate changes increased the value of the order book by EUR 0.4m during the period.
Sales activities to existing customers were satisfactory. The sales processes towards new customers take longer time than anticipated at the beginning of the year, and even though a new SimCorp Dimension license agreement was signed with a US asset manager, sales to new customers during Q2 fell short of expectations.
SimCorp Dimension licences, quarterly order intake and order book (aggregate new licences and add-on licences)*, 2009-2010
*) Order intake and order book include licences to new customers as well as add-on licences to existing customers. The order book is the licence value of signed licence agreements that has not yet been recognised in income.
Interim report as of 30 June 2010 – SimCorp A/S
Consolidated H1 revenue was EUR 85.2m, down 1% compared with H1 2009. Exchange rate changes had a net positive impact on revenue of 2.0%. At EUR 44.5m, Q2 revenue was reduced by around 7% over Q2 2009. Changes in exchange rates had a net positive impact on revenue of 3.5% in the three-month period.
In H1 2010, income recognised from licence sales amounted to EUR 15.0m, which was 32% lower than in H1 2009. Income recognised from licence sales in Q2 2010 was down by 34% compared with the year-earlier period to EUR 9.7m.
Fees from professional services amounted to EUR 30.7m in H1 2010, which was 1% higher than in the same period of last year. Professional service fees in Q2 2010 amounted to EUR 14.6m, down 6% y/y. This is due to the fact that the total amount of consultancy hours sold was lower than for the same period of last year, whereas the average hourly rate marginally increased.
Regular maintenance income, which increases in line with the completion and implementation of new customer installations, was EUR 37.5m in H1 2010, up 20% on the same period of last year. Maintenance income in Q2 2010 was up by 21% on the year-earlier period to EUR 19.2m. Other income in the quarter, including course fees, amounted to EUR 1.0m.

SimCorp continues its international expansion, and for the first six months of 2010 approximately 23% of the consolidated revenue was generated in markets outside Europe, compared with 21% in the first six months of 2009, whereas revenue in the traditional Nordic home markets and Central Europe for the first six months now represent 57% compared with 59% in the same period of 2009. Additional information is set out on page 16.
Total costs in the first six months of 2010 were EUR 79.3m compared with EUR 71.6m in the same period of last year. SimCorp's total costs (including depreciation and amortisation) amounted to EUR 40.7m in Q2, a planned increase of 12.0% relative to Q2 2009. Salaries and staff-related costs, which accounted for about 70% of total costs, were up by approximately EUR 5,6m, or 11%, over H1 2009. The increase in costs encompasses EUR 1.5m spent on a seminar for all employees in the Group held in June and an increase of EUR 0.7m in connection with employee shares as mentioned in the interim report for Q1. These costs correspond in itself to an increase of 3.6 percentage points of the total increase in costs in the period.
Production costs in H1 rose by 16% to EUR 36.6m, primarily relating to a continued expansion of customer support activities and sale of consultancy services. In Q2 2010, production costs were 21% higher than in Q2 2009.
Interim report as of 30 June 2010 – SimCorp A/S
The Group retained its research and development capacity at the level established in 2009, and at EUR 24.7m in H1 research and development costs were unchanged from the same period of 2009. Q2 research and development costs were reduced by 2% relative to the same period of 2009.
The continued increase in sales activities and the improvement of the sales and marketing organisation, especially in North America and France, led to a 27% increase in sales and distribution cost to EUR 11.4m compared with H1 2009 and a 26% increase over Q2 2009. Compared with H1 2009, sales and distribution costs rose by more than 30% in North America and more than doubled in France.
At EUR 6.4m in H1, administrative expenses increased by 3% relative to H1 2009 and by 4% compared with Q2 2009.
The Group had 1,119 employees at 30 June 2010, which was 31 more than at the same time last year. This increase is related to market activities. The net increase in the number of employees in Q2 amounted to 6 employees with 9 employees being employed in market activities in North America and central sales-supporting functions, whereas there was a reduction of 3 employees in other units.
For H1 2010 the Group posted EBIT of EUR 5.9m, which was EUR 8.7m less than in the same period of 2009. Q2 EBIT was EUR 3.8m, against EUR 11.5m in Q2 of last year.
Interim report as of 30 June 2010 – SimCorp A/S
Net financial expenses amounted to EUR 1.5m in H1, mainly attributable to exchange rate changes on short-term debt to subsidiaries. The Group posted a pre-tax profit on continuing operations of EUR 4.5m, against EUR 13.4m in H1 2009. The estimated tax charge totals EUR 2.0m and is influenced partly by the fact that a significant part of the earnings were generated in countries with higher income tax rates than Denmark's 25% corporate tax rate, and partly by the fact that the value of tax loss carry-forwards has been reduced due to a lowered corporate tax rate in the USA (which increases the calculated tax for Q2 by EUR 0.3m). The consolidated net profit for the first six months year on continuing operations was subsequently EUR 2.4m, against a net profit of EUR 10.0m in the year-earlier period.
Net financial expenses for Q2 amounted to EUR 1.1m. The Group posted a pre-tax profit on continuing operations of EUR 2.7m, against a profit of EUR 10.8m in Q2 2009. After tax totalling EUR 1.3m, the Group posted a net profit for Q2 2010 of EUR 1.4m, compared with EUR 8.2 in the same period of last year.
SimCorp's total assets stood at EUR 103.3m at 30 June 2010, including cash of EUR 35.5m, which is an increase of EUR 9.5m compared with the year-earlier date. The Group had total receivables of EUR 42.4m at 30 June 2010, representing an increase of EUR 0.6m from 30 June 2009.
Operating activities generated a cash inflow of EUR 14.0m in H1 against EUR 18.6m in the same period of 2009. EUR 1.7m of the liquidity was spent on investing activites, while financing activities generated a net cash outflow of EUR 21.4m. The sale of shares to employees increased the liquidity by EUR 0.8m, while dividend payments of EUR 18.3m and purchase of treasury shares of EUR 3.9m resulted in a cash outflow.
The company's equity amounted to EUR 62.0m at 30 June 2010, which was a reduction of EUR 13.7m compared with 31 December 2009. Dividend payments to shareholders amounting to EUR 18.3m and purchase of treasury shares amounting to EUR 3.9m reduced equity. Total comprehensive income for the period of EUR 5.3m, as well as share-based payment and sale of shares to employees of EUR 3.2m increased equity. Equity was increased by EUR 3.7m compared with the same time of 2009.
Interim report as of 30 June 2010 – SimCorp A/S
SimCorp's business performed broadly in line with expectations during the first six months of the year. SimCorp's intake of licence contract orders varies considerably from one period to the next. In Q2 2010, the order intake for the sale of new software licenses was substantially lower than in the year-earlier period, and management believes that this reflects longer sales processing times. SimCorp continues to see satisfactory and geographically diversified demand for its products and services. SimCorp is seeing signs of a higher level of activity in the existing customer portfolio and increased pipeline activities in North America, France and the UK. SimCorp's total pipeline of potential licence contracts performs satisfactorily, and the Group retains its full-year expectations of a total full-year order intake of licence contracts that is higher than in 2009.
With the prospect of a continued growth in business activities and given that the prevailing exchange rates for SimCorp's key currencies versus the Euro at 25 August 2010 stays at the current level for the remaining part of 2010, SimCorp retains its projections for 2010 of an overall increase in reported revenue and overall business growth of around 10%. The projected growth rate, however, is positively affected by approximately four percentage points by the exchange rate development for SimCorp's key currencies which has materialised since the beginning of the year. A greater proportion of expected revenue and growth in H2, as compared with 2009, is based on new license orders, where the timing and size is subject to uncertainty, and the terms and conditions of the final contracts will affect the timing of when the license is recognised as income. The final revenue and overall business growth for 2010 may therefore fluctuate extensively around the expected level of approximately 10%. Since costs are not fully affected by changes in revenue, the EBIT margin might also fluctuate, but is still forecasted to be around 22%. The currency movements since the beginning of 2010 have had a two percentage point positive impact on the forecasted EBIT margin.
In Q2, SimCorp secured contracts equaling revenue of a total of EUR 17.2m, against EUR 22.8m in Q2 2009, and by 30 June 2010, contracts for EUR 147.6m of the full-year revenue for 2010 had been secured, which is EUR 3.6m more than at the same time last year.
The SimCorp Dimension product platform and a stronger sales, service and development organisation make the Group well positioned to meet market demands with a strong competitive offering. SimCorp thus has positive expectations for the long-term business development.
*) This announcement contains certain forward-looking statements and expectations in respect of the 2010 financial year. Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. They involve risk and uncertainty and the actual performance may deviate materially from that expressed in such forwardlooking statements due to a variety of factors. Readers are warned not to rely unduly on such forward-looking statements which apply only as at the date of this announcement. The Group's revenue will continue to be impacted by relatively few, but large system orders, and such orders are expected to be won at relatively irregular intervals. The terms agreed in the individual licence agreements will determine the impact on the order book and on licence income for any specific financial reporting period. Accordingly, licence revenue is likely to vary considerably from one quarter to the next. Unless required by law SimCorp A/S is under no duty and undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement after the distribution of this document, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Interim report as of 30 June 2010 – SimCorp A/S
SimCorp operates in a dynamic and complex business environment, where performance relies strongly on the ongoing achievement of a number of success criteria. Page 19 of SimCorp's Annual Report 2009 describes the most important general risk factors and the risk preventive measures used in everyday operations. In the view of management, the description of these potential risks remains valid today. However, it should be noted that the increased volatility for most of SimCorp's major invoicing currencies versus the Euro increases the impact of the currency risk for the reported financial results.
No stock options were exercised in Q2, but 6,430 stock options were cancelled.
At 26 August 2010, a total of 229,709 stock options of DKK 10 each had been issued, including 151,310 options of DKK 10 with an exercise share price higher than the market price of DKK 869 per share of DKK 10 each.
In accordance with the remuneration policy approved by the shareholders at the annual general meeting, on 1 April 2010 the Board of Directors undertook to grant restricted stock units to replace the previous stock option programme. A total of 17,405 restricted stock units of DKK 10 each have been granted. The restricted stock units will vest after three years, subject to continuing employment. Furthermore, the restricted stock units are subject to conditions with respect to average annual minimum revenue growth and annual average net operating profit after tax for the financial years 2010-2012. If the two latter conditions are only partially satisfied, the undertaking with respect to the number of shares transferred after three years will be reduced, and may possibly lapse completely.
In connection with employee resignations in Q2, the grant of 457 restricted stock units has been cancelled.
In the beginning of Q3, a total of 207 restricted stock units have been granted in connection with the appointment of two senior employees, which means that the total number of restricted stock units granted now amounts to 17,155 stock units of DKK 10 each.
SimCorp purchased 18,000 treasury shares of DKK 10 each in Q2 at a price of EUR 2.4m, corresponding to an average purchase price of DKK 994 per share of DKK 10 each. The Group now holds a total of 94,840 treasury shares of DKK 10 each, equal to 2.1% of the company's share capital.
Interim report as of 30 June 2010 – SimCorp A/S
The Board of Directors and the Executive Management Board have today considered and adopted the interim report for the period 1 January – 30 June 2010.
The interim financial report, which is unaudited and has not been reviewed by the compay's auditors, is presented in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim financial reporting" as adopted by the EU and Danish disclosure requirements for listed companies.
In our opinion, the interim financial report gives a true and fair view of the Group's assets, liabilities and financial position as of 30 June 2010 and of the profit of the Group's operations and cash flow for the period 1 January – 30 June 2010.
Furthermore, in our opinion the management's report includes a fair review of developments in the activities and financial position of the Group, the results for the period and of the Group's financial position in general and describes the principal risks and uncertainty factors that may affect the Group.

Interim report as of 30 June 2010 – SimCorp A/S
The interim report is presented in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim financial reporting" as adopted by the EU and Danish disclosure requirements for interim reports of listed companies.
The accounting policies are consistent with the policies in the Financial statements 2009. See page 39 of the Annual Report 2009 for a comprehensive description of the accounting policies applied.
Effective 1 January 2010, SimCorp A/S has implemented a number of mandatory accounting standards and interpretations which do not affect the recognition of the Group's result, assets, liabilities or equity.
The preparation of interim reports requires management to make accounting judgments and estimates that affect the use of accounting policies and recognised assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The most significant estimates made by management when using the Group's accounting policies and the most significant judgment uncertainty attached hereto are the same for the preparation of the interim report as for the preparation of the Annual Report 2009.

The SimCorp Group does not hold assets under finance leases and has not provided assets as security.
In accordance with the remuneration policy approved by the shareholders at the annual general meeting, on 1 April 2010 the Board of Directors undertook to grant restricted stock units. The Group's Executive Management Board has been granted 4,524 restricted stock units of DKK 10 each, and an employee who is a board member has been granted 86 restricted stock units of DKK 10 each. The restricted stock units will vest after three years, subject to continuing employment. Furthermore, the restricted stock units are subject to conditions with respect to average annual minimum revenue growth and annual average net operating profit after tax for the financial years 2010-2012. If the two latter conditions are only partially satisfied, the undertaking with respect to the number of shares transferred after three years will be reduced, and may possibly lapse completely.
No significant changes have occurred to the contingent liabilities referred to in the Annual Report 2009.
No significant events have occurred after the balance sheet date that affect the interim report.
