Chairman's Statement

 

Dear Shareholders,

This being my last statement as an executive of INTERNETQ PLC ("INTERNETQ"), I am proud to report that fiscal 2012 was a year of exceptionally strong financial performance which has been achieved by continued expansion as well as technical innovation. For the third year in a row, we achieved record revenue, EBITDA and earnings per share. In particular, net income for our shareholders was a record €6 million, an increase of 148% over last year, and revenue topped € 73.4 million, up 47% from last year. Diluted earnings per share increased 125% to € 0.18, while adjusted for share-based acquisition costs and share-based employee compensation (as part of our long term talent retention program)EPS stood at a record € 0.23, as opposed to €0.12 the year before.

Our success was driven by improved results in each of our businesses and reflects the strength of our entire portfolio. Most importantly, it reflects the strength of our mission, people, technology and value system. It's also the result of our long-term strategy and the significant technology investments we've made over the last several years to ensure that we continue to find new ways to monetize global mobile commerce.

Over the last three years, we have built an extended network of carrier connectivities, content partners and marketing partners that provide enormous opportunities for us to continue creating high-quality experiences for mobile audiences in a growing number of emerging markets. More specifically, since our IPO we have focused on three key strategic priorities that have been critical to our success: a) expand of our network operations beyond Eastern Europe and into new high growth markets, b) improve our technological solutions to offer advanced mobile marketing services on smartphones, as well as the traditional SMS based campaigns and c) develop our AKAZOO offering into a fully-fledged mobile music service able to compete on a global scale. I am proud to say that fiscal 2012 has been another year of great achievement for our businesses in all of these key areas.

In 2012 we underwent critical management changes to ensure that the business can continue growing successfully in the longer term. In April 2012we recruited Bob Beveridge, a highly valued non-executive that has brought better balance to the board's function and more strength to its governance. Moving on, in November 2012, I stepped aside from the position of Chief Executive and assumed the role of Chairman, paving the way for Panagiotis Dimitropoulos to assume his natural leadership role in the company he founded. At the same time, we re-structured our organization going forward, to align our cost base with the future needs of the companyand re-allocating resources to better meet the growth potential across our entire portfolio.

By all accounts and any measure, 2012 was an extraordinary year for INTERNETQ. Our achievements are a testament to the commitment and tireless work of our incredibly talented employees around the world. Our results reflected the sound execution of our business plans, centered on global expansion and disciplined cost and asset management. Among our achievements, we delivered our highest-ever sales and income, made substantial investments to expand our worldwide footprint, and continued an aggressive launch of advanced new products like the new version of AKAZOO and MiniMob, a promising new platform that deliversongoing mobile marketing messages via push notification on the operating systems of smartphones.

Despite persistent global economic concerns, longer-term trends based on population growth and rising living standards remain strong. It is widely believed that smartphone penetration will continue expanding at double-digit rates over the next several years and that a growing number of products and services will be marketed over the mobile network. Hence the need for high-quality, innovative mobile marketing capabilities like the ones we are continually developing. To illustrate the potential force of these tailwinds, consider that while economic growth for much of the world has stalled in the last several years, the overall "mobility" has fared remarkably well. Mobile network subscriptions keep rising, device proliferation is picking up pace and broadband is expanding and becoming more affordable.

 

As a result, InternetQ remains well positioned to enjoy growing profits even in an uncertain global economy and, longer term, to benefit from broad trends and favorable industry tailwinds that we believe hold great promise for our future.

On behalf of everyone at InternetQ, I thank you for your continued support and confidence. You can count on the team to do its best to continue achieving fantastic results and deliver exceptional shareholder value in the future.

 

 

Chief Executive Officer's Review

 

Introduction

I am delighted to report another strong operational performance from INTERNETQ over the last 12 months. 2012 represents a year of renewed operational progress in which we remain focused on three core growth drivers:

·; The delivery of strong organic growth across all business units;

·; Increase operational presence in Asia and Africa, further capitalizing on InternetQ's established market presence;

·; Actively pursue selective bolt-on acquisitions that accelerate our technology capabilities or enhanced our geographic footprint.

By focusing on these core objectives, the Group has been able to deliver such impressive results for shareholders.

 

As CEO, my mission has been to focus on operational excellence, ensuring the business delivers sustainable revenue growth over the longer term. Our strategic progress is underpinned by our internal systems, coupled with an entrepreneurial spirit that you would associate with a fasted paced technology company.

 

Whilst we continue to invest in our mobile marketing operations, which remains a core component of INTERNETQ, our team is making substantial progress with our entertainment platform, AKAZOO. Both business units are geared towards the faster growing emerging economies, where we continue to see good growth going forward. Our focus on Emerging Asia is ever present, which is supported by IMF research which forecasts the region to deliver 7.7% GDP growth in 2013.

 

Turning to our financial performance, we are delighted to report a significant increase of revenues in the period supported by an ever improving profit margin. Our collective aim is to continue this positive trend going forward which we believe can be achieved by a combination of strategic sales initiatives and product development and innovation.

 

Turning to the numbers, revenues increased 47% in 2012 to €73.4 million (2011: €50.1 million), with all business segments delivering a substantial sales growth. Revenues from core Mobile Marketing activities grew by 40% to €57.5 million (2011: €41.2 million) while revenues from AKAZOO grew by 90% to €11.4 million (2011: €6 million).

 

The geographic diversity of our business was improved by strong growth in Asia which now comprises 36% (2011: 17%) of Group revenues, and Africa, now 15% of revenues (2011: 14%). Europe now represents 40% of sales, down from 61% in 2011.

 

The focus on delivering an improved profit level has resulted in pre-tax profit and adjusted pre-tax profit increasing112% and 106% respectively, with our EBITDA margin and adjusted EBITDA margin of 14.4% and 16.7% respectively (adjusted figure relate to share incentive plans and acquisition costs amounting to €1.7 million - Note 10), our best performance to date.

 

In summary, our business momentum remains very strong and the Group is well placed to continue to generate sustainable profit growth for our shareholders.

 

 

 

 

 

Divisional overview

Our business operates three distinct but interconnecting spheres- mobile marketing, premium digital entertainment and smartphone app advertising. InternetQ has evolved tremendously since its initial listing; anticipating the market direction and particularly, the overwhelming uptake for smartphones.

 

In short, InternetQ provides large-scale mobile, social and app-driven marketing solutions that effectively leverage the massive global adoption of connected devices:

 

MobiDialog

InternetQ's proven mobile marketing platform produced another strong performance during 2012. Over the last 12 months, the platform delivered over 36 campaigns, working alongside over 150 mobile network operators and media companies alike. Our ability to rapidly implement targeted, interactive and measurable campaigns continues to fuel this business, presenting a compelling and truly mass market platform. Our web based interface enables all our campaigns to be accessed, managed and maintained in real time.

 

MobiDialog remains a core feature of our business and its ability to deliver profitable campaigns for our customers throughout the duration of the campaign means it continues to appeal to marketing departments and finance team alike.

 

AKAZOO

INTERNETQ's premium digital mobile content hub continues to gain market share in what is a highly interactive and socially developed environment. At present, Akazoo (accessible via Web & Mobile Apps) focuses on delivering localized music content to subscribers located across 22 different countries, an increase of 8 countries compared to 2011. During the last 12 months, Akazoo added 1.4 million subscribers of which 0.2 million were paying for premium subscription services at an average monthly revenue rate per subscriber €1.83. The AΚΑΖΟΟ service continues to grow in popularity, with Asia a key region of growth.

 

Given the heightened popularity for online music services, AKAZOO continues to thrive as demand for local content alongside more mainstream tastes continues to drive subscriber growth. In addition, the services mobile payment function is underpinning our early success in key emerging territories of South East Asia and Africa where credit card payment are unpopular and mobile commerce is more widespread.

 

AKAZOO is a key technology initiative for the Group and remains crucial as we develop new services aimed at the next generation of tablet and smart phone devices. Mobile commerce is very much entertainment based and this offering is specially tailored for that audience.

 

Minimob

InternetQ recently launched a value-added smartphone 'push notification' platform in February 2013, which facilitates commercial opportunities for App developers and publishers personalized promotions. The Company's strategic aim is to ensure InternetQ is immersed in the app space, aligning ourselves with software developers.

 

The platform enables App developers to maximise the success of their Apps, by allowing them to quickly set up promotional campaigns and build a communication strategy, thereby extending the life and value of the App. MiniMob.com is an industry first as it is the only completely free service to offer unlimited messaging to an infinite number of App end users, with no third party advertisements.

 

Minimob solves multiple systemic issues that are holding back the success of traditional mobile advertising networks, allowing for opt-in promotion campaigns that keep Apps 'alive' on handsets and generate significant operational co-efficiencies. Monetization of Minimob occurs as a percentage of the revenue that App developers and publishers gain from the personalized campaigns.

 

 

Industry dynamics

In terms of the broader world economy, the emerging economies are still outpacing the more established economies of Europe and North America. The IMF global economic outlook noted through 2013, that World output (in GDP terms) should hit an improving 4.1 percent however 'Emerging Asia' will show the growth at a healthy 7.7 percent. INTERNETQ continues to focus on the Asian markets where it already has built up a solid platform for growth and sees significant potential for expansion.

 

The global mobile outlook continues to remain strong. Estimates are already pointing to 4.6 billion active users across approximately 9.1 billion connections by 2015 (including a broadband base of 3.2 billion). InternetQ already has direct access to 2.4 billion subscribers and growing fast.

 

The outlook for Smartphone global penetration rates continues to accelerate. InternetQ has primarily focused on Android, which now has 75% of all smartphones being released globally. It should be also noted that, for example, in countries like Singapore and Indonesia, smartphone sales have now reached 85% and 62% respectively of all mobile devices purchased. These remain key geographies for our business.

 

Outlook

The last 12 months has seen a strong financial performance delivered by the Group with the Board noting that this trend has continued into the first quarter of 2013. Whilst our core mobile marketing initiatives continue to underpin this performance, we do see a greater level of importance coming from our AKAZOO platform as we roll out the service internationally. The increase in smart phone penetration globally will drive this growth where we have made significant investment in the platform.

 

We continue to invest in market leading technology, as clearly demonstrated by the launch of our 'Minimob' app product, which continues to receive favorable market feedback from industry experts. Our stated growth strategy is clear and we will continue to evaluate target bolt-on acquisitions that accelerate the Group's customer and geographical reach.

 

2013 has started strongly and our new business pipeline remains strong. Therefore, the Board remains confident that trading will continue to develop in line with market expectations.

 

Chief Financial Officer's Review

 

For the Financial Year 2012, INTERNETQ has comprehensively delivered its best ever performance in terms of revenues and profits.

The Company's performance, and collective ability to deal with the challenging operational environment during the past year is not only a result of strong operational execution but can also be attributed to our strategic approach to managing costs, cash flow and our balance sheet.

During 2012 we focused on the strict control of the Group's operational expenses. Our aim in the past year has been to reduce or eliminate all non-essential or embedded costs and to cut back on less profitable projects. Secondly, we have taken measures to reduce working capital needs and improve cash conversion.

Group revenues in 2012 amounted to €73.4 million representing 47% growth compared to previous year (2011: €50.1 million), with all segments delivering substantial sales growth. Revenues from Mobile Marketing activities grew by 40% to €57.5 million (2011: € 41.2 million) while revenues from AKAZOO grew by 90% to € 11.4 million (2011: € 6 million).

Administration costs increased by 21% compared to the previous year, primarily due to the share incentive plan granted to employees and to the share based payments related to the acquisition of I-POP. EBITDA grew by 64% to €10.6 million (2011: €6.5 million), a margin of 14.4% (2011: 12.9%). Adjusted EBITDA grew by 66% to €12.2 million (2011: €7.4 million) a margin of 16.7% (2011: 14.7%). Profit after income tax for the year reached €6 million compared to 2.4million for 2011. Adjusted Profit after Income tax for the year reached €7.7 million compared to €3.3 million for 2011(adjusted figures relate to share incentive plans and acquisition costs amounting to €1.7 million - Note 10).

Investment in AKAZOO and Mini Mob platforms resulted in an increase in capital expenditure. Total capital expenditure including intangibles for the year ended 31 December 2012 stood at €7.9 million, an increase of 44% from the previous year (2011: € 5.5 million).

The Group ended 2012 with €7.1 million net cash (2011: €8.2 million), which consisted of €9.3 million (2011: €10.6 million) cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and €2.2 million (2011: €2.4 million) bank debt. The terms and conditions of the Group's borrowing agreements continue to be relatively favourable. Our €0.5 million bond loan arrangement matures in April 2013 and another €0.34 million term loan matures in March 2014.

INTERNETQ is entering 2013 in a stronger financial position than the one we found ourselves at the beginning of 2012 having delivered financial results beyond expectations. A significant proportion of this success can be attributed to our dedicated efforts to balance strict cost control with selective investment, to reduce working capital needs and increase cash conversion, and to reinforce the Group's financial position.

We have positioned the Group more strongly from an operational, as well as from a financial, standpoint, and we will continue to capitalize on this position going forward.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements.

1. Segment Information

For management purposes the Group is organised into business units based on its services. Consequently, the Group has five reportable operating segments as follows:

·; The Mobile Marketing operating segment: Specially designed for campaigns on mobile telecommunications networks.

·; The AKAZOO operating segment: Services offering access to digital content (music, games, subscriptions) from the Group's platform AKAZOO.

·; The Legacy operating segment: Media Services involving audience through compelling promotions, programs and live shows that draw attention to content.

·; The Aggregation Services operating segment: Services that enable customers' billing directly via the users' mobile phone.

·; Investment Properties: Rental income from operating leases.

 

No operating segments have been aggregated to form the above reportable operating segments.

 

In 2011 the Group has decided to split the previously reported Mobile Entertainment segment into two separate segments and report AKAZOO segment separately from the Legacy segment. The significant increase of AKAZOO business during 2011, in connection with the intentions of the management and the future trends in the specific segment, resulted in management assessing AKAZOO and its operating results separately for the purpose of decision making. At the same time the declining Legacy business (mainly Greek based) was the reason for management deciding to monitor the specific business as a separate segment.

 

The Group, in 2011 after the acquisition of I-POP in South East Asia, decided to report the aggregation services as a separate segment. The Group through this segment provides a unique, yet proven, combination of technology, software and creative services that enables the rapid development, distribution and billing for digital content, media licensing and marketing services. These services can be more easily summarized as Billing/Aggregation (that enables I-POP's partners to bill for services directly via a users' mobile phone), media content and format exploitation (for integrated brand marketing campaigns and TV shows), and enterprise solutions, that make the most out of today's mobile media revolution for corporate clients.

 

Management monitors the operating results of its business units separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. Segment performance is evaluated based on operating profit or loss (minus any costs that are not allocated to segments) and is measured consistently with operating profit or loss in the consolidated financial statements.

 

Transfer prices between operating segments are on an arm's length basis in a manner similar to transactions with third parties. Segment income, expenses and results will include those transfers between business segments which eliminated on consolidation.

"Software under development" relates to the development of the new version of the AKAZOO platform. AKAZOO 2 introduces to the market amongst other, the following new core features; unlimited music streaming on the web and on mobile through smartphone applications, automated sharing of music activity between socially connected users, connection to social ecosystems (i.e. Facebook), new intelligent search platform, flexible and multichannel billing methods.

 

At year-end 2011 the development costs amounted to €1,505,582 of this new version of the platform was in progress and, therefore, the related costs were presented as software under development. The platform was launched in September 2012 and consequently the amount was reallocated to purchase software and internally generated software, while the amortisation of the related development costs commenced at the same time.

 

At the year-end 2012 an amount of €497,484,related to development costs for some additional new features of the AKAZOO 2, not yet released, is presented as software under development. These new features relate mainly to the development of applications for access across all Android, IOS and blackberry devices, mobile phones and Tablets and Smart TVs, as well as for the development of sophisticated recommendation engines and AKAZOO 2 API. These features and applications are expected to be released on April 2013. Upon the completion of the respective features the amortisation will commence.

 

Customer relationships and non-compete agreement refer to the intangible assets recognised separately from the acquisition of I-POP Networks Pte Ltd. The relative amortisation of the non-compete agreement commenced in September 2012 after the termination of the prior managing and advising shareholders of I-POP.
