DIGIA PLC INTERIM REPORT, 30 APRIL 2013 at 09:00
DIGIA’S FIRST QUARTER 2013: CLOSURE OF CONTRACT ENGINEERING BUSINESS CONTINUED TO AFFECT THE NET SALES, LEADING TO SLIGHTLY NEGATIVE OPERATING PROFIT
SUMMARY:
January-March
- Consolidated net sales: EUR 23.5 (26.1) million, down 9.8 per cent
- Consolidated operating profit: EUR -0.5 (1.4) million
- Profitability (EBIT %): −2.0 (5.4) per cent
- Product business accounted for 37.5 (27.0) per cent
- Earnings per share: EUR −0.02 (0.04)
The company’s net sales and especially its operating profit fell clearly from the comparison period in the previous year.
The decline in net sales was due to the fact that the company had no more mobile contract engineering operations during the period under review, as they ceased at the end of 2012. Excluding the mobile contract engineering operations the net sales levelled the comparison period in the previous year.
The Qt business was relatively successful during the reporting period, with net sales growing compared to the same period last year. Demand and bid volumes were both good. The development of new business opportunities in the large global customers was favourable, although lengthened decision-making has slowed down growth also in this area.
The Qt business acquisition completed in Q3 2012 is still burdening the business unit with heavy expenses, which means that a weaker operating profit for the whole company was to be expected for the period under review. The slightly below-expectations net sales also had a direct effect on operating profit, making it negative and slightly below the targeted level.
The company expects the operating loss of the review period to be temporary. Consolidated net sales are expected to grow compared to the first quarter and operational profitability is expected to return to a reasonable level during the second quarter of the year. In the second half of the year the company expects its profitability to continue improving to a good level.

MARKETS AND DIGIA’S BUSINESS OPERATIONS
Caution arising from the global economic situation occasionally lengthened customers’ decision-making processes and delayed the start of new projects. Continuing cost pressures felt by customers during the review period affected their procurement decision, especially in bespoke solutions and services business.
The integration business developed favourably and even exceeded expectations thanks to new customer relationships and existing key accounts.
Demand for ERP systems and other operational systems was relatively good during the review period. Customers continued displaying caution in their purchasing behaviour and sales cycles were still long. Order and bid volumes remained at a normal, healthy level, but with significant sector-specific differences in demand.
The Qt business was relatively successful during the reporting period, with net sales growing compared to the same period last year. Demand and bid volumes were both good. The development of new business opportunities in the large global customers was favourable, although lengthened decision-making has slowed down growth also in this area. During the period, the company continued fulfilling previously reported plans related to Qt product development and areas of focus. New Qt releases have been well received in the market.
In Digia’s Russian unit, the focus of business development was on analytics solutions for local customers within the retail value chain. Besides offering services locally, the Russian unit also supports the company’s business in Finland by providing near shore services, particularly within ERP system solutions.
The focus of development of the Chinese unit is on Qt licence and consulting services offered to the local Chinese market.
NET SALES
Digia’s consolidated net sales for the reporting period totalled EUR 23.5 (26.1) million, down 9.8 per cent from the same period in 2012.
The decline in net sales was mostly due to the fact that the company had no more mobile contract engineering operations during the period under review, as they ceased at the end of 2012. Excluding the mobile contract engineering operations the net sales levelled the comparison period in the previous year.
During the reporting period, the product business accounted for EUR 8.8 (7.0) million or 37.5 (27.0) per cent of consolidated net sales.
International operations accounted for EUR 4.4 (5.2) million or 18.6 (19.9) per cent of consolidated net sales.
PROFIT PERFORMANCE AND PROFITABILITY
Digia’s consolidated operating profit for the reporting period was EUR −0.5 (1.4) million. Profitability (EBIT %) was -2.0 (5.4) per cent.
The company’s operating cost structure and profitability were negatively affected during the period by investments into the international product business. With slightly below-expectations net sales, the cost structure caused the company to make a minor operating loss.
Consolidated earnings before tax for the period totalled EUR -0.7 (1.1) million, and net profit was EUR -0.5 (0.8) million.
Consolidated earnings per share were EUR −0.02 (0.04).
The Group’s net financial expenses were EUR 0.3 (0.3) million.
FINANCIAL POSITION AND EXPENDITURE
At the end of the reporting period, Digia Group’s consolidated balance sheet total stood at EUR 91.8 million (12/2012: EUR 92.4 million), and the equity ratio was 50.3 (12/2012: 52.6) per cent. Net gearing was 31.3 (12/2012: 27.5) per cent. Period-end cash and cash equivalents totalled EUR 6.6 (12/2012: 8.3) million.
Interest-bearing liabilities amounted to EUR 19.1 (12/2012: 19.8) million at the period end. These consisted of EUR 18.0 million in loans from financial institutions and EUR 1.1 million in financial leasing liabilities.
The Group’s cash flow from operations for the period was positive by EUR 0.9 (2.0) million, cash flow from investments was negative by EUR 0.03 (0.9) million, and cash flow from financing was negative by EUR 2.6 (3.1) million. Cash flow from finance was negatively affected by the payment of dividends totalling EUR 2.1 million and by the repayment of loans totalling EUR 0.5 million during the reporting period.
The Group has made no material investments in fixed assets during the review period (Q1/2012: EUR 0.9 million).
Return on investment (ROI) for the period was -2.7 (9.5) per cent, and return on equity (ROE) was -9.8 (8.1) per cent.
The Group carries out quarterly impairment testing of goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite useful life. The table below shows the distribution of goodwill and values subject to testing at the end of the reporting period:
EUR 1,000 | Specified intangible assets | Amortisations during the reporting period | Goodwill | Other items | Total value subject to testing |
Group total | 9,448 | 372 | 51,105 | 7,157 | 67,710 |
Present values were calculated for the forecast period based on the following assumptions: Net sales and operating profit for the first quarter of the forecast period according to the confirmed figures for the latest quarter, and for the following three quarters according to budget. After this, annual growth in net sales of 3.0 per cent and in operating profit of 10.0 per cent, and a pre-tax discount rate of 9.4 per cent. Cash flows after the forecast period were estimated by means of cash-flow extrapolation, applying the assumptions given above.
According to a completed sensitivity analysis, the goodwill requires either net sales to remain at the current level with profitability of 5.7 per cent, or a 3.0 per cent growth in net sales with profitability of 3.2 per cent. The management sees no risk of goodwill impairment.
PERSONNEL, MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATION
At the end of the period, the total number of Group personnel was 943, representing a decrease of 39 employees or 4.0 per cent since the end of 2012 (982). During the reporting period the number of employees averaged 947, a decrease of 78 employees or 7.6 per cent from the 2012 average (1,025).
Employees by function at the end of the period:
Business units | 95% |
Administration and management | 5% |
As of the end of the period, 180 (12/2012: 195) employees were working abroad.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The company’s short-term business risks and uncertainties were described in the 2012 Financial Statement Bulletin. These are unchanged.
Risks and their management are described on the company’s website at www.digia.com.
FUTURE PROSPECTS
The company is focusing heavily on paving the way for growth. Besides organic growth, the company will actively pursue opportunities to make carefully considered business acquisitions that support its strategy.
The company expects the IT market to remain at roughly the previous year’s level in 2013.
Efforts will continue to develop the company’s customer understanding and sales and service portfolio, to ensure that it can offer increasingly competitive services and solutions for boosting its customers’ business efficiency.
The company expects demand for its ERP systems, operational systems and integration services to remain good, although increased caution on the customer side and lengthening sales cycles may have an effect on future order intake.
The company continues to seek growth in the expanding Russian market. The Chinese unit will focus on Qt licence sales and supporting service.
The company expects net sales from the Qt business to continue growing, leading to an improvement in operational profitability.
The company expects the operating loss of the review period to be temporary. Consolidated net sales are expected to grow compared to the first quarter and operational profitability is expected to return to a reasonable level during the second quarter of the year. In the second half of the year the company expects its profitability to continue improving to a good level.
OTHER EVENTS DURING THE REVIEW PERIOD
Convening on 12 March 2013, the Digia Plc Annual General Meeting (AGM) approved the financial statements for 2012, released the Board members and the CEO from liability, determined Board emoluments, resolved to keep the number of Board members at seven (7), and elected the Board of Directors for the new term.
With regard to profit distribution for 2012, the AGM approved the Board’s proposal to pay a dividend of EUR 0.10 per share to all shareholders listed in the shareholder register maintained by Euroclear Finland Ltd on the reconciliation date of 15 March 2013. The dividend payment date was 22 March 2013.
The AGM granted the following authorisations to the Board:
Authorisation of the Board of Directors to decide on buying back own shares and/or accepting them as collateral
The AGM authorised the Board to decide on the buyback and/or acceptance as collateral of not more than 2,000,000 shares in the company. This buyback can only be executed by means of the company’s unrestricted equity. The Board shall decide on how these shares are to be bought. Own shares may be bought back in disproportion to the holdings of the shareholders. The authorisation also includes acquisition of shares through public trading organised by NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Oy in accordance with the rules and instructions of NASDAQ OMX Helsinki and Euroclear Finland Ltd, or through offers made to shareholders. Shares may be acquired in order to improve the company’s capital structure, to fund acquisitions or other business transactions, for offering share-based incentive schemes, to sell on, or to be annulled. The shares must be acquired at the market price in public trading. This authorisation supersedes that granted by the AGM of 13 March 2012 and is valid for 18 months, i.e. until 12 September 2014.
Authorising the Board of Directors to decide on a share issue and granting of special rights
The AGM authorised the Board to decide on an ordinary or bonus issue of shares and the granting of special rights (as defined in Section 1, Chapter 10 of the Limited Liability Companies Act) in one or more instalments, as follows: The issue may total, at a maximum, 4,000,000 shares. The authorisation applies both to new shares and to treasury shares held by the company. By virtue of the authorisation, the Board has the right to decide on share issues and the granting of special rights, in deviation from the pre-emptive subscription rights of the shareholders (a directed issue). The authorisation may be used to fund or complete acquisitions or other business transactions, for offering share-based incentive schemes, to develop the company’s capital structure, or for other purposes. The Board was authorised to decide on all terms related to the share issue or special rights, including the subscription price, its payment in cash or (partly or wholly) in capital contributed in kind or its being written off against the subscriber’s receivables, and its recognition in the company's balance sheet. This authorisation supersedes that granted by the AGM of 13 March 2012 and is valid for 18 months, i.e. until 12 September 2014.
Based on the authorisation received, the Board decided on 12 March 2013 to make a directed share issue of 33,326 to the company’s management, in accordance with Section 4 of Chapter 9 of the Limited Liability Companies Act, as part of the payments related to the share-based incentive scheme for 2012.
