For investor related queries, please email: [email protected] Chairman's Statement It is a pleasure and a privilege to have joined InternetQ at such an excitingpoint in the Company's development. As Panagiotis Dimitropoulos explains in hisChief Executive's Statement, this has been an excellent year of progress andone that positions the Group extremely well for continued future growth. I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the outgoing ChairmanKonstantinos Korletis. I was pleased that soon after joining the board we were able to furtherstrengthen it, with the appointment of Harris Jones as Non-Executive Director.Harris brings 14 years of experience in the mobile sector to InternetQ, havingpreviously been CEO, amongst others, of Cable and Wireless International. I have been immensely impressed by the strength of InternetQ's executive team,their sense of common purpose, their disciplined approach (in particular aroundacquisitions), the abundance of technical innovation and the backing that theyreceive from their ever increasing global client base. The Group's consistentlystrong track record of growth since its IPO in 2010 is a testament to thecommitment and tireless work of this team and the dedicated and talented staffacross the world. I am delighted to report that InternetQ has maintained its strong performanceover the last 12 months, continuing its excellent track record of underlyingrevenue growth across all its business divisions. Achieving, for the fourthconsecutive year, record levels of revenue, EBITDA and earnings per sharemomentum. Including the results from acquisitions completed during the year, revenueincreased by 42% to €104.4 million. Margins improved in the second half of theyear, driving annual adjusted EBITDA to €16.2 million and after-tax adjustedprofitability of €11.1 million in the full year. Adjusted earnings per share(Note 2) increased by 27% to €0.30. Significant structural growth potential in our core markets of mobile marketingand entertainment InternetQ operates in a fast growing but rapidly evolving global marketplace.Smartphone penetration is driving mobile internet penetration and is expectedto overtake fixed broadband as soon as 2017. Mobile penetration in emergingmarkets is now tracking above Broadband and, in some regions; mobile is seen asa default option for internet access and often the standard method forelectronic payments. Conversely, mobile advertising spend is currently verysmall relative to the time consumers spend on their devices, which continues toincrease. This market dynamic underpins expectations of a significant upwardshift in mobile advertising spend globally. This powerful and dynamic marketbackdrop continues to endorse InternetQ's strategy to offer a compelling suiteof entertainment products, marketing solutions and advertising to this growingmass market of smartphone users. Furthermore, InternetQ is a clear market leader in the field of mobilemarketing. Headquartered in Athens, but with a diversified internationalfootprint, the business was founded by our CEO Panagiotis Dimitropoulos in2000, as a mobile services company. With over 13 years' experience in thesector we have developed over time deep and long lasting relationships withnetwork operators and handset providers across the world. InternetQ is therefore ideally placed to profit from these trends. We havedeveloped a broad emerging markets footprint, strong mobile marketingcapabilities, exponential growth in the Minimob software installed base (100mdownloads thus far) and a leading Music streaming/download business in Akazoo. We have developed a three pronged approach, driving up revenues from the mobilemarket. We continue to invest in our original MobiDialog marketing platform(which continues to deliver double-digit growth), have developed in-house ourown sophisticated Minimob platform which is embedded into Smartphone apps,while growing our Akazoo music streaming subscribers' base across ourinternational footprint through partnerships with Mobile networks operators. A diverse geographic footprint At the time of the IPO of InternetQ in 2010, the business was concentratedaround three core markets; Poland, Turkey and Greece. Since then, we havedeveloped a diverse geographic footprint. With Europe accounting for 36% of2013 revenues, Asia 26%, Middle East and Africa 29% and Latin America 9%. TheCompany is now well placed to leverage these global relationships by offering abroad range of products and services. Successful integration of acquisitions and a disciplined approach to theirevaluation As I have already said, the executive team has demonstrated to the board thatthey are disciplined when it comes to evaluating the large number ofacquisition opportunities available. Each opportunity must align to InternetQ'sstated strategy of broadening its geographical reach whilst further developingits service offering. InternetQ's key assessment criteria for any transactioninclude: * Immediate "plug-and-play" access to a significant number of high growth International markets. * Ability to leverage "untapped" capacity of existing direct connectivity agreements with Mobile Operators. * Immediate capability to deploy and widely promote existing products and services and more effectively cross sell assets across a wider market footprint. * Significant opportunity to take advantage of the imminent transformation to a smartphone culture via the Minimob smart advertising platform. * Utilise the strength of the management team and ongoing media relationships to effectively exploit the vast regional potential arising from the dramatic adoption of the mobile internet. I am pleased to report that Atlas Interactive, which was acquired in July 2013,continues to trade well following its successful and swift integration. Theexecutive team remains confident that the combination of its expansive Europeanfootprint and connectivity agreements with Mobile Network Operators worldwidewill create significant cross selling opportunities. Indeed a number of new andexisting customers have already increased their spending as a result of theacquisition. Improving cash position and strengthening balance sheet I am also pleased to report that cash flow has improved with operating cashflow of €13.2 million (2012: €1.9 million) or 92% (18%)of EBITDA so we end theyear with a stronger balance sheet and cash and cash equivalents at year-end of€13.2 million (2012: €9.3 million) including restricted cash of €0.5 million(2012: €0.6 million). This solid financial position provides sufficientcapacity to support future growth, especially as smartphone adoption and usagebecomes commonplace across multiple emerging and developed markets. Prospects for the business This set of results is further evidence of InternetQ's progress in our chosenmarkets. With the ever increasing growth in smartphone penetration set tocontinue, the coming years hold great opportunity for InternetQ. We willremain flexible and evolve our businesses to take full advantage of thesemarket trends. Chief Executive Officer's Review As CEO, I am delighted to report another tremendous year of development andgrowth driven by product and geographic expansion, which now includes 23countries, as well as our continued global sales momentum. As such, we believe that this year's results are highly positive and capturethe energy of our industry and further outlines the significant opportunitythat mobile consumerism will create for InternetQ in the coming years. Strong sales growth, greater market access Our audited figures, which include revenue growth of 42% and profit growth of46% for the year, are once again impressive. This strong growth demonstratesthe potential of InternetQ's proposition as the Group's platforms find new endmarkets, gather greater commercial momentum and leverage the ability to scale,beyond the more traditional Telco business, as services are propagated intomultiple new distribution channels. Setting a firm foundation for global expansion From a corporate perspective, our targeted M&A activity has certainly given usgreater scope and capability to drive profitable business across all the areasoutlined in last year's report. In particular, 2013 saw InternetQ acquire andsuccessfully integrate the German billing and messaging aggregation leader,Atlas Interactive, and Interacel Holdings in Latin America cementing a dominantposition in central Europe and the Americas. Making Music and Apps work harmoniously There have been great strides made in the Music industry in recent years andthe provision of streaming music platforms has become a highly fertile area forthe business; for its part, our Akazoo platform has grown some 80% year-on-yearwith even more deals in the immediate pipeline. Investment in our product extensibility has reaped dividends too, with theMinimob platform becoming a major proposition for developers and publishersalike. We believe this line of business, namely in-app and deep linked mobilemarketing and advertising will become a fundamental driver; into the burgeoningUSD40 billion-dollar App economy. The interconnected future In my opinion, there is no company better positioned to take advantage of thiswholesale shift to smart devices, always-on Internet and the desire forconsumers everywhere to transact instantly. Our business has never beenstronger and our end markets have the potential to drive significant growthover the coming years. Chief Financial Officer's Review Review of the Group's business The Group's financial results for the year are once again the Company's bestever in terms of revenues and profits, allowing us to look to 2014 withoptimism. The market environment is very positive, with ever increasing numbersof Smartphones and an increasing breadth of functions and services providedthrough such devices. InternetQ has continued to extend geographically and alsoto develop new value added services which will maintain our momentum in yearsto come. The Company's performance, and ability to drive profitable growth during thepast year is not only a result of the healthy market, the strength of ourmarket proposition and operational execution, but can also be attributed to ourapproach to managing costs, cash flow and our balance sheet. In addition, 2013 was marked by the completion of two important acquisitions,Atlas Interactive in Germany and Interacel in Latin America. As such, by theend of 2013 the Group held a strong position, having achieved the objectives ofglobalizing its operations, improving its competitiveness and creating abalanced portfolio of products, setting a strong foundation for future growth. Group revenues generated 42% growth in 2013, with both segments deliveringsubstantial sales growth. Revenues from B2B activities grew by 43% to € 87.7million (2012: €61.5 million) while revenues from B2C grew by 40% to € 16.7million (2012: €11.9 million). Selling and administration costs increased by 49%, primarily due to theacquisitions and the geographic expansion of the business. Adjusted EBITDA(after adjustment for share incentive plans and share based payments amountingto €1,412,997) (Note 9) grew by 33% to €16.2 million (2012: €12.3 million) amargin of 16% (2012: 17%). The profit after tax for the year reached €8.7million compared to €6 million for 2012. Investment in the Akazoo and Minimob platforms resulted in an increase incapital expenditure. Total capital expenditure including fixed and intangiblesassets for the year ended 31 December 2013 stood at €14.4 million, an increaseof 82% from the previous year (2012: €7.9 million). The Group ended 2013 with €4.7 million (2012: €2.2 million) net cash, whichconsisted of €13.2 million (2012: €9.3 million) cash and cash equivalents andrestricted cash and €8.5 million of bank debt (2012: €7.1 million). The Groupraised €11.1 million of capital in July 2013 in order to finance theacquisition of Atlas Interactive in Germany and the expansion of its businessinternationally. The terms and conditions of the Group's borrowing agreementscontinue to be relatively favorable. Our €4 million term loan matures in March2022 and another €2 million loan arrangement matures in April 2017. InternetQGermany also obtained a €2 million overdraft facility for the financing of itsexpanding business with gaming companies, from which, the utilized portion asof year-end was €1.1 million. Summary InternetQ is entering 2014 in a stronger financial position than at the startof the previous year. We have delivered strong financial results with acontinued dedication to cost control, selective investments, and improved cashconversion. All in all, we have completed a year of considered corporate recalibration toposition the Group more strongly from an operational, as well as, from afinancial standpoint providing a base to capitalize on in the future. For all of us in the Group's Management, our foremost concern is to takecareful and measured steps to offset risks and to safeguard the interests ofthe Group, of our people, of our shareholders and of our partners. In otherwords, of all those who put their trust in us and who assist us in our efforts.

Segment Information For management purposes the Group is separated into business units based on itscustomer types. Consequently, the Group has two reportable operating segmentsas follows: * Business to Business (B2B) segment: B2B revenues are those that arise from the marketing of InternetQ's products to other organizations. It allows the Group to sell its products or services to other companies or organizations that resell them, use them in their products or services or use them to support their operations. * Business to Consumer (B2C) segment: B2C revenues are those resulting from marketing of InternetQ's products directly to consumers as the Group's target market. In the past two years the Group has driven the scale of the business to thenext level with a further push into new territories by acquiring Atlas Germanyand Interacel Holdings, providing commercial synergies based on increasedbreadth of distribution. Following this, the Group has changed its segments to align with the strategy,allow management to take quick decisions and point to the opportunities andaccommodates and anticipates changes in the business and in customers'behaviors. From the marketing perspective, segments should ultimately fit theorganisation's ability to identify and respond to customers. This presentationis therefore consistent with how the business operates and how performance isassessed.
