Trading Update for six months ended 30 June 2015 and full year guidance

 

July 13, 2015 - The Board of Telit (AIM: TCM), a global leader in machine-to-machine (m2m) communications and a chief enabler for the Internet of Things (IoT), is pleased to provide a trading update for the six months ended June 30, 2015.

 

Financial Performance

 

Telit expects that revenues for H1 2015 will be approximately $156.2 million, an increase of 13.2% over the comparable period last year (H1 2014: $138 million). Revenues are expected to include $11.1 million (H1 2014: $9.2 million) generated from the Company's IoT Platform as a Service (PaaS) through its services division, which represents 20.6% year-over-year growth. Net cash/debt as of June 30, 2015 is expected to be approximately zero (Nil) (December 31, 2014: net debt of $3.9 million).

 

Outlook

 

Additionally, the Board is pleased to provide, for the first time, guidance for the full trading year of 2015, as follows:

 

·    Revenues: $347m-$354m

·    Adjusted EBITDA: $42m-$47m

 

This guidance for the full year reflects current business indicators and expectations. Inherent in this guidance are risk factors that are described in greater detail in our regulatory filings. All figures are approximations based on management's current beliefs and assumptions and our actual results could differ from those presented above.

 

Oozi Cats, Chief Executive of Telit, said, "I am pleased to report that Telit has delivered a strong performance over the past six months. Due to the strong components demand in the smartphone industry, this period reflects the effects of several component supply constraints. The company has overcome these challenges, and we expect the full year revenues to match our current annual growth rate - approximately 20% - as well as align with the annual guidance. We continue to see robust performance from the automotive product line and the Platform as a Service (PaaS), as well as from our traditional business of industrial m2m."
