Outlook for 2013

We expect net sales and operating profit for 2013 to reach the 2012 level. In our assessment, net sales and operating profit for the first half of 2013 will remain below the comparative period.

Comments on the last quarter of 2012 by CEO Jukka Rinnevaara:

“Orders received stood at a satisfactory level due to the good order intake for video surveillance solutions, but the cable operators’ demand fell below the comparable period. Teleste’s net sales fell below the reference period, as deliveries of equipment for cable operators decreased and the year-on-year deliveries in German fiber projects declined. In spite of the implemented cost management, the drop in net sales resulted in a reduced operating profit. Temporary personnel layoffs were launched in the Finnish operations of Video and Broadband Solutions designed to prepare for a quieter market early in the year.

Video and Broadband Solutions’ net sales fell below the comparative period, mainly due to a lower demand for the Luminato headend. Deliveries related to video surveillance were at par with the comparative period. In the fourth quarter, an onboard video management and recording solution order of four million euro was received from Chicago Transit Authority (CTA). The delivery is scheduled for 2013. A two-year frame agreement worth about two million euro for intelligent network products was signed with the Danish Stofa A/S.

The year-on-year net sales and operating profit of Network Services fell. This decline in net sales and operating profit was mainly due to a reduction in deliveries of fiber-optic projects. The start of new frame agreements also called for an increase in resources. At the end of the period under review, a three-year frame agreement was signed with a German telecom operator for upgrading of networks and technical maintenance.”

Personnel and Organization in January-December 2012

In the period under review, the Group had an annual average of 1,326 people (1,297/2011 1,215/2010), of whom 567 (564) were employed by Video and Broadband Solutions, and 759 (733) by Network Services. At the end of the review period, the figure totaled 1,325 (1,319/2011, 1,231/2010) of whom 73% (72%/2011, 70%/2010) were stationed overseas. Employees stationed outside Europe accounted for less than 5% of the Group’s personnel.

In the fourth quarter of 2012, the parent company Teleste Corporation launched cooperation procedures together with the personnel. Adjustments in the number of employees in Finland were initiated in December 2012 by introducing a flexible and rotating temporary layoff. In addition, three persons were made redundant. The rotating temporary layoff agreed in the cooperation procedures can be extended until March 2014.

Wages and salaries increased by 7.2% over the previous year and amounted to EUR 58.5 (54.6/ 2011, 50.8 /2010) million. This increase was mainly due to a rise in the number of personnel of Network Services, decrease in the activation of wage costs involving R&D, as well as union-specific contract increases.

The number of temporary labor in the Finnish production averaged 22 (10) people. At the end of the review period, there were no temporary employees in Finland. Costs involving temporary labor have been entered under the material costs.

Investments in January-December 2012

Investments by the Group for the period under review totaled EUR 3.3 (5.2) million accounting for 1.7% (2.9%) of the net sales. Investments in product development equaled EUR 0.8 (2.5) million. The projects involved future product platforms at the research stage, further development of the existing product families, as well as short-term customer projects. Other investments involved information systems, as well as machinery and equipment for production and services. Investments of EUR 0.8 (0.3) million were made under financial lease arrangements. In Finland, a piece of real property was sold with the capital gain amounting to EUR 0.6 million.

Financing and Capital Structure in January to December 2012

Operating cash flow stood at EUR 15.3 (2.1) million. This improved cash flow from operations was due to a growth in profitability, a reduction in inventories, as well as a decrease in accounts receivable. At the end of the period under review, the amount of unused binding stand-by credits amounted to EUR 19.0 (7.5) million. Credit limits are valid until August 2015.

The Group’s equity ratio equaled 50.5% (41.6%) and net gearing 13.7% (32.2%). On 31 December 2012, the Group’s interest bearing debt stood at EUR 22.1 (33.2) million.

Key Risks Faced by the Business Areas

Founded in 1954, Teleste is a technology and services company consisting of two business areas: Video and Broadband Solutions and Network Services. With Europe as the main market area, our clients include European cable operators and specified organizations in the public sector.

As to Video and Broadband Solutions, client-specific and integrated deliveries of solutions create favorable conditions for growth, even if the involved resource allocation and technical implementation pose a challenge involving, therefore, also reasonable risks. Our customers’ network investments vary based on the relevant need for upgrading and their financial structure. Significant part of Teleste’s competition comes from the USA so the exchange rate of euro up against the US dollar affects our competitiveness. The exchange rate development of the Chinese renminbi to euro affects our material costs. The company hedges against short-term currency exposure by means of forward contracts. The tight financial market in Europe may slow down our customers’ investment plans. Furthermore, a weakening in the consumer purchasing power in Europe could slow down the network investments by the cable operators. Availability of components is subject to natural phenomena, such as floods and earthquakes. Severe weather conditions have an impact on the business areas’ ability to deliver products and services. Correct technological choices and their timing are vital for our success.

Net sales of Network Services comes, for the most part, from a small number of large European customers, so a significant change in the demand for services by any one of them is reflected in the actual deliveries. To ensure quality of services and cost-efficiency along with efficient service process management, customer satisfaction and improvements in productivity require innovative solutions in terms of processes, products and logistics. Smooth operation of cable networks requires effective technical management and functional hardware solutions in accordance with contractual obligations. This, in turn, demands continuous and determined development of skill levels in Teleste’s own personnel as well as those of our subcontractors. In addition, our ability to deliver and compete may be constrained by the adequacy of our sub-contractor network capacity. Tender calculation and management of larger projects with overall responsibility are complex and risky.

It is important for our business areas to take into account any market developments such as consolidations taking place among the clientele and competition. The threats to information systems must be minimized to ensure business continuity. The Board of Directors annually reviews any essential risks related to the company operation and the management thereof. Risk management is an integral part of the strategic and operational activities of the business areas. Risks and their probability are reported to the Board in conjunction with regular monthly reports.

The company has covered any major risks of loss related to the business areas through insurance policies. Insurance will also cover credit loss risks related to sales receivables. In the period under review, no such risks materialized, and no such legal proceedings or judicial procedures were pending that would have had any essential significance for the Group operation.

Group Structure

Parent company Teleste has branch offices in Australia, the Netherlands, and Denmark with subsidiaries in 12 countries outside Finland. On account of financial arrangements, Teleste Management Oy, established in March 2010, and Teleste Management II Oy, established in December 2011, have been consolidated into Teleste Corporation’s figures. Teleste Incentive Oy has been merged with Teleste Corporation. In Belgium, the company structure was streamlined.

Decisions by the Annual General Meeting

The Annual General Meeting (AGM) of Teleste Corporation held on 3 April 2012 confirmed the financial statements for 2011 and discharged the Board of Directors and the CEO from liability for the financial period. The AGM confirmed the dividend of EUR 0.14 per share proposed by the Board. The dividend was paid out on 17 April 2012.

Ms. Marjo Miettinen, Mr. Pertti Ervi, Mr. Pertti Raatikainen, Mr. Kai Telanne and Mr. Petteri Walldén continue in Teleste’s Board of Directors. Mr. Esa Harju was elected a new member while the membership of Mr. Tero Laaksonen ended. Ms. Marjo Miettinen was elected Chair of the Board in the organizational meeting held immediately after the AGM.

Authorized Public Accountants KPMG Oy Ab continue as the auditor until the next AGM. Mr. Esa Kailiala, accountant authorized by the Central Chamber of Commerce of Finland, was chosen auditor-in-charge.

The AGM authorized the Board to acquire the maximum of 1,400,000 of the company’s own shares and to convey the maximum of 1,779,985 company’s own shares. On 8 April 2011, the AGM authorized the Board of Directors to issue five million new shares; this authorization will be valid until the Annual General Meeting of 2014. Pursuant to the special rights provided by the Company, the maximum number of significant shares is 2,500,000; these special rights are included in the authorization to issue 5,000,000 new shares.

At the end of the period, the Group’s holding of the total amount of shares amounted to 6.96% (6.96%).

On 31 December 2012, the registered share capital of Teleste stood at EUR 6,966,932.80 divided in 18,728,590 shares.

Trading with stock options 2007B and 2007C began on the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd on 2 April 2012. These options allow subscription for a maximum of 560,000 shares in the company.

Outlook for 2013  

Given the new video services offered by the operators, there is a continuous need for increased cable network capacity, so we estimate the deliveries by Video and Broadband Solutions in our target markets to reach at least the 2012 level. In our view, investments by cable operators will fall on the second half of the year.

We estimate that Network Services’ net sales in our target markets will reach at least the 2012 level and that the profitability will improve from the 2012 level with the developments in productivity.

We expect net sales and operating profit for 2013 to reach the 2012 level. In our assessment, net sales and operating profit for the first half of 2013 will remain below the comparative period.
