Paris, September 26, 2019 - ATEME (ISIN: FR0011992700), world specialist in video compression, has published its results for the Half Year to 30^th June 2019.

Robust revenues performance

First half revenues amounted to €30.1 million, up 29% year-on-year and by 24% at constant exchange rates.

The two largest regions confirmed their dynamic trend with 13% revenue growth in EMEA, and 26% in North America (18% at constant currency). Latin America and Asia Pacific demonstrated more spectacular growth rates with 76% and 41% respectively (66% and 34% at constant currency).

Improved margins and profitability

As previously flagged, while the H1 2019 product mix was improved, the volume of third-party products, notably servers sold along with our TITAN software, remained material, thereby limiting the improvement in Gross Profit from 45.0% to 46.7% (+1.7 points). On the other hand, opex was contained at 12%, less than half the level of topline growth, with R&D expenses at +13% and Sales & Marketing at +9%.

As a result, the net result for the first half recorded a significant improvement, standing at a deficit of €1.2 million versus €3.2 million a year ago.

Financial objectives confirmed

In the five years since the 2014 IPO, H2 revenues have accounted for an average of 57% of annual revenues, ie exceeding H1 revenues by 33%. Given this established seasonality pattern, the significant reduction in current operating deficit in H1 paves the way for a return to profitability in H2 and for the year as a whole. ATEME's two-year objective of topline growth exceeding 20% per annum with an improvement in gross margin and profitability are confirmed.

Furthermore, the company is consistently growing the ratio of recurring revenues through a combination of multi-year capex engagements with large customers, and opex subscription deals with emerging players. This ratio will be communicated from January 2020.

Cash under control

Cash amounted to €4.5 million at 30 June 2019, compared with €6.3 million at 31 December 2018. The variation mostly reflects the deficit of the first half and is expected to improve in line with profitability in the upcoming quarters.

ATEME Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Michel Artières, said: "The First Half of 2019 was in line with our expectations and all elements are in place for ATEME to deliver on its objectives, both financial and operational: technology leadership with Artificial Intelligence-optimized next generation codecs AV1 and VVC, high level of interest in the new TITAN playout solution launched at IBC Amsterdam with booth attendance up 55%, and an increasing ratio of multi-year agreements with strategic accounts enhancing the visibility of our topline trajectory.”
