· Cash flows from operating activities of $1.2 million were lower in H1 2014 than in H1 2013 ($5.7 million), due to increased working capital investment in order to support the growth of video activity.
· Strong balance sheet maintained in H1 2014 whilst net debt increased to $21.9 million (H1 2013: $7.4 million), reflecting new debt facilities of $21.6 million raised in connection with the Team Internet acquisition.

Ofer Druker, Chief Executive Officer of Matomy, said:
"I am pleased to report good progress across the business in the first six months with pro-forma Group revenues up 20% and adjusted EBITDA up 61%.
"The environment in which Matomy operates is exciting and dynamic, and one which is rapidly evolving and competitive. We believe that the digital advertising market will continue to undergo rapid change and significant consolidation and it is therefore essential that we continue to evolve, innovate and not stand still. As a result of this, we have continued to invest in our internal capabilities in the period, allocating increased resources to our mobile and video divisions, improving our programmatic media buying capabilities and business intelligence infrastructure, launching our pay-per-call activity and strategically acquiring a controlling stake in Team Internet.
"These business developments, together with the planned additional investments in the second half of the year in our media capabilities, partnerships and acquisitions, will strengthen our market position and drive our long-term profitable and sustainable growth.
"It has been an exciting period for Matomy, with our IPO in July, and I would like to thank the whole team for their continued passion and commitment."

SUMMARY OF RESULTS
MARKET OVERVIEW
There are a number of important structural trends driving the growth of the rapidly evolving digital advertising sector in which Matomy operates. The global digital advertising market was $88.8 billion in 2012, and is expected to grow to $156.2 billion by 2016, according to ZenithOptimedia. Additionally, broadband and high-speed mobile networks are increasingly becoming the norm, which is driving the growth in the use of smartphones and tablets. Connected devices are accelerating consumer access to high-speed mobile networks and enabling consumers to watch and interact with online content anytime, anywhere. In an industry of this nature it is essential to constantly evolve and adapt, something Matomy has proven extremely competent at over the course of the history of the business. Matomy will therefore look to continue to develop and invest in its existing and new capabilities and will respond in an agile fashion to industry developments.
H1 2014 OVERVIEW*
Matomy had a strong first half of 2014, with revenue improving by $10.3 million, to $107.6 million on a GAAP basis (H1 2013: $97.3 million). This growth was driven by increased activity in Matomy's key strategic growth drivers of video, social and mobile. Active advertising customers decreased by 11% to 1,644 in H1 2014, as a result of the reorganisation following the acquisition of the former MediaWhiz business (now known as "Matomy US") in January 2013, which included the termination of certain MediaWhiz activities that were not relevant to Matomy's core and ongoing business, and did not meet the levels of sustainable profitability that the Group requires.
Geographically, Matomy is seeing the strongest growth in the Americas (including North and South America) with revenue up $14.4 million, to $65.9 million (H1 2013: $51.5 million). This was driven by a marked increase in video activity, most of which is generated in the United States, as well as new capabilities added to the Group, including email marketing following the January 2013 acquisition of MediaWhiz. The strong US performance more than offset a decline in European revenues of $4.4 million, to $32.1 million, during the same period (H1 2013: $36.5 million). This decrease primarily reflects a decline in activity in Spain, due to a change in user registration requirements for additional mobile media services by certain mobile operators.
Group operating profit increased by 42% in the period on a GAAP basis reflecting improvements in the Group's ability to capitalise economies of scale.
During the first half of 2014 Matomy focused its R&D activity mainly in developing further automation and efficiency capabilities to its platform, including the field of real-time bidding and continuous integration and adaptability of the platform to support all of its media channels. This was done in conjunction with additional improvements to the Group's programmatic media buying capabilities and business intelligence infrastructure.
In June 2014, Matomy acquired a controlling stake in the German domain monetisation and direct search navigation business, Team Internet. As part of the transaction, Matomy increased its ownership stake in Team Internet from 20% to 70%. Team Internet produced revenue of $21.5 million in H1 2014 on a non-consolidated pro-forma basis, a 104% increase over the previous year. Team Internet offers significant synergies with the Group's performance-based marketing capabilities, such as email and web performance-based services, both of which have already started to generate new revenue streams for the Group. The Group has commenced its integration and cross-selling of products and services, and this will continue through the remainder of the year. Matomy expects the synergies with Team Internet to increase and create additional growth for the Group.

Display and video
Display and video media channel revenues increased by $10.4 million, or 18%, to $70.1 million for the six months ended 30 June 2014 from $59.7 million in the same period last year. This increase primarily reflects growth in the video media channel, as well as organic growth through the display media channel.
Search
Search media channel revenues decreased by $7.7 million, or 62.3%, to $4.7 million for the six months ended 30 June 2014 from $12.4 million in the same period last year, mainly due to the anticipated trend by advertisers to reduce outsourcing services related to search activity and technological tracking adaptations required as a result of a shift by users in the gaming vertical from personal computers to mobile devices.
Social media and virtual currency
Social media and virtual currency media channels revenues increased by $1.2 million, or 12%, to $11.3 million for the six months ended 30 June 2014 from $10.1 million in the same period last year. This increase primarily reflects revenues contributed by the 2013 acquisition of Adotomi (now known as "Matomy Social"), a social media advertising agency that specialises in Facebook marketing.
Mobile
Mobile media channel revenues increased by $6.2 million, or 121%, to $11.3 million for the six months ended 30 June 2014 from $5.1 million in the same period last year. This increase was driven by the growth in Matomy's organic mobile activity as well as by strategic acquisitions made in 2013, including MobAff. Mobile remains a key engine for Matomy's future growth.
Other media channels
Other media channel revenues increased by $0.2 million, or 2%, to $10.2 million for the six months ended 30 June 2014 from $10.0 million in the same period last year. This increase mainly reflects growth in Matomy's email marketing business.
*based on interim consolidated financials, not including the consolidation of Team Internet on a pro-forma basis.
Outlook
In the rapidly evolving digital advertising market Matomy is one of the few performance-based marketing companies that is able to deliver highly targeted campaigns across multiple media channels on all digital devices. In an exciting industry of this nature it is essential to focus on growth, and growth opportunities. Matomy will therefore seek to continue to evolve ahead of the market, investing in new capabilities and responding in an agile fashion to industry developments.
The Group has made good progress over the first six months of the financial year, increasing revenue and profits whilst also investing in new capabilities and geographies. Looking ahead, Matomy will continue to build the business for the long term and remains on track to deliver its plan.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Revenue
Matomy had a strong first half of 2014, with revenue improving by $10.3 million, to $107.6 million (H1 2013: $97.3 million). This growth was driven by increased activity in Matomy's identified growth drivers - Video, Social and Mobile.
Cost of sales and other expenses
Cost of revenues for the Group increased by $7.1 million, or 10%, to $78.8 million (73% of total revenues) for the six months ended 30 June 2014 from $71.7 million (74% of total revenues) in the same period last year. Since Matomy's cost of revenues primarily consists of direct media costs, the majority of the growth in cost of revenues in 2014 was driven by revenue growth.
Operating expenses increased by $1.3 million, or 6%, to $22.3 million (H1 2013: $21.0 million). Operating expenses as a percentage of revenues were 21% (H1 2013: 22%)
Similarly, sales and marketing expenses increased 6% to $10.0 million (H1 2013: $9.5 million). This increase represents additional investment in headcount; increased sales commissions payable attributable to the growth in revenues; increased amortisation costs from the October 2013 Adotomi acquisition; and the effect of the depreciation in the USD/ILS exchange rate, offset by efficiency savings.
General and administrative expenses increased by $0.3 million (4%) to $8.3 million (H1 2013: $8.0 million), due primarily to foreign currency movements.
Research and development
Research and development investment increased by $0.5 million or 13%, to $3.9 million (H1 2013: $3.4 million), attributable to increased investment in headcount and as a result of the movement in the USD/ILS exchange rate.
Equity Gains
Net equity gains of affiliated companies were $7.6 million for the six months ended 30 June 2014, compared with a loss of $0.1 million for the six months ended 30 June 2013. This increase reflects the gain recorded as a result of revaluing the prior equity interest in Team Internet held before Matomy acquired a controlling 70% stake in June 2014.
Net income
Net income increased by $9.4 million, or 290%, to $12.6 million in H1 2014, compared to $3.2 million in H1 2013. Net income margins increased to 6% from 4.7% representing a 28% improvement.
Cash flow
Cash and cash equivalents increased by 0.7 million, or 5%, to $14.3 million as of 30 June 2014, compared to $13.6 million as of 30 June 2013.
Cash flows from operating activities of $1.2 million were lower in H1 2014 than in H1 2013 ($5.7 million), due to increased working capital investment in video activity, which led to an increased trade receivables balance as this activity is based on a non-performance model that has a standard higher DSO than the Group average.
Net cash used in investing activities of $22.8 million (H1 2013: $10.6 million) was mainly related to the Team Internet acquisition, whilst in H1 2013 this was primarily related to the MediaWhiz acquisition.
Cash flows from financing activities also increased to $24.3 million (H1 2013: $6.0 million), primarily due to a $21.6 million term loan taken out to fund the acquisition of the controlling stake in Team Internet. As of 30 June 2014, Matomy had $28.6 million in term loans. Of those, $12.5 million are due within one year.
Going concern
The Group continues to meet its day to day working capital and other funding requirements through a combination of long-term funding and cash deposits.
After making due enquiry, the Directors fully expect Matomy and its subsidiaries have adequate resources to continue operational existence for the foreseeable future and therefore adopt the going concern principle.
Principal risks
The Directors assess and monitor the key risks of the business on an ongoing basis. The principal risks and uncertainties that could have a material impact on the Group's performance have not changed from those which are set out in detail in the section entitled "Risk Factors" of the Group's IPO prospectus (the "Prospectus") dated 9 July 2014. These include, inter alia, the following:
· certain internet and technology companies may intentionally or unintentionally adversely affect Matomy's operations, mainly, due to announced or unannounced changes and restrictions by such companies
· the delivery of digital ads and the recording of the performance of digital ads are subject to complex regulations, legal requirements and industry standards
· Matomy relies largely on performance-based revenues
· the digital advertising industry is highly competitive and fragmented and currently experiencing consolidation, resulting in increasing competition
· Matomy is dependent on relationships with certain third parties with significant market positions
· Matomy relies on the continued compatibility of the Matomy Performance Platform with third-party operating systems, software and content distribution channels, as well as newly-acquired systems
· Matomy may be subject to third-party claims brought against it
· Matomy has historically derived the majority of its revenues from customers that use its solutions for display marketing campaigns
· a key part of Matomy's growth strategy relates to acquisitions and the ability to effectively integrate and manage them
· the digital advertising industry, particularly display and virtual currency media channels, remains susceptible to fraud
· Matomy is an Israeli-domiciled company and as such the rights and obligations of shareholders are governed by Israeli law and differ in some respects from English law
Forward looking statements
Certain statements in this half yearly report are forward looking. Although the Group believes that the expectations reflected in these forward looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that these expectations will prove to have been correct. Because these statements contain risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update any forward looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Directors' responsibility
The Directors confirm that to the best of their knowledge:
· the condensed set of financial statements (unaudited), which has been prepared in accordance with US GAAP, gives a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit of the undertakings included in the consolidation as a whole as required by DTR 4.2.4; and
· the Interim Management Report includes a fair review of the information required by:
o (a) DTR 4.2.7, being an indication of important events that have occurred during the first six months of the financial year ending 31 December 2014, and their impact on the condensed set of financial statements; and a description of the principal risks and uncertainties for the remaining six months of the financial year; and
o (b) DTR 4.2.8, being related party transactions that have taken place in the first six months of the financial year ending 31 December 2014 and that have materially affected the financial position or the performance of the group during that period; and any changes in the related party transactions described in the Prospectus that could do so.

NOTE 1:- GENERAL
a. General:
Matomy Media Group Ltd together with its subsidiaries (collectively - "the Company") provides digital performance-based marketing services to customers which include primarily advertisers, advertising agencies and other businesses around the world that promote or sell products and/or services to consumers through digital media, such as websites, mobile apps and social media networks. The Company offers its customers a solution for reaching and acquiring their target digital consumer audience. Matomy Media Group Ltd. was incorporated in 2006. The Company's markets are located primarily in the United States and Europe.
The Company provides its customers with the ability to achieve pre-defined, measurable and validated results, such as conversions into service or product sales, customer acquisitions, software and mobile app installations, qualified leads for value-added services and products and verified video views, with their digital marketing campaigns.
The Company manages and optimises its customers' digital marketing campaigns using its proprietary technology, the Matomy Performance Platform, to maximise their accessibility to their target audience. The Matomy Performance Platform records and analyses consumer responses to digital marketing campaigns, allowing the Company to refine the campaigns to optimise their performance. Since the Matomy Performance Platform is integrated or linked with the systems of the Company's digital media suppliers, it can manage digital media demand with greater automation and efficiency.
The Company currently operates across eight media channels: display, video, search, social, virtual currency, mobile and email, and domain monetisation.
During July 2014 the Company completed an Initial Public Offering (the "IPO") in the high growth segment of the "London Stock Exchange" and issued 18,058,000 ordinary shares in consideration of approximately $70,145, net.
b. Acquisitions:
Acquisition of Team Internet AG:
On 19 June 2014, the Company acquired an additional 50% of the issued and outstanding shares of Team Internet AG ("Team Internet") for a consideration of EUR 19.7 million ($26,843). Following the acquisition, the Company holds 70% of the issued and outstanding shares of Team Internet. Pursuant to the addendum agreement, Team Internet's shareholders have the right to individually transfer all of their remaining shareholding (being 30% in aggregate) to the Company in equal instalments of 10% in each of the periods between 1 September 2016 and 31 August 2017, 1 September 2017 and 31 August 2018 and 1 September 2018 and 31 August 2019 ("the Put Options). The Put Options' exercise prices are calculated based on Team Internet's preceding 12 months EBITDA multiplied by a certain percentage of Matomy's effective EBITDA multiple of the preceding four quarters (which will be no less than 8).
NOTE 1:- GENERAL (Cont.)
Team Internet is a domain monetisation company based in Munich, Germany. As a result of the acquisition, the Company will be a leading provider in the domain monetisation media channel. The Company accounts for the acquisition using the acquisition method and accordingly has allocated the purchase price according to the estimated fair value of the assets of Team Internet it acquired and the liabilities it assumed. In performing the purchase price allocation, management has considered, among other things, Team Internet's business model and its value drivers, its historical financial performance and estimates of future performance. The fair value of the intangible assets was assessed assuming a market participant acquirer utilising the income approach.
The Company will include the results of Team Internet's operations in the consolidated financial information commencing 30 June 2014 in order to align with the accounting close date. Management estimates that the difference between the consolidation date and the acquisition date has an immaterial effect of $62 on its results of operations.

NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a. Unaudited interim financial information
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six-month period ended 30 June 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended 31 December 2014.
The Company has prepared its consolidated financial information in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP"). In the preparation of the consolidated financial information, it applied the significant accounting policies, on a consistent basis to the annual financial statements of the Company as of 31 December 2013.
b. Principles of consolidation:
The consolidated financial information includes the accounts of Matomy Media Group Ltd. and its subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.
c. Use of estimates:
The preparation of the consolidated financial information in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions. The Company's management believes that the estimates, judgments and assumptions it uses are reasonable based upon information available at the time they are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial information, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
On an ongoing basis, the Company's management evaluates estimates, including those related to accounts receivable, fair values of financial instruments, fair values and useful lives of intangible assets, fair values of stock-based awards, deferred taxes and income tax uncertainties, and contingent liabilities. Such estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities.
NOTE 3:- Fair value of financial instruments
The Company applies ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures". Under this standard, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the "exit price") in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Foreign currency derivative contracts are classified within Level 2 as the valuation inputs are based on quoted prices and market observable data of similar instruments.
NOTE 4:- DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
The Company uses derivative instruments to protect against foreign currency fluctuations and to hedge against the risk of overall changes in future cash flow from payments of payroll and related expenses denominated in new Israeli shekels.
These instruments were not designated as cash flow hedges as defined by ASC 815, "Derivative and Hedging", and therefore the Company recognises the changes in fair value of these instruments in the statements of net income as financial income or expense, as incurred.
The Company had forward and options contracts that did not meet the requirement for hedge accounting.
The following table presents the notional amount of derivative instruments:

The net gains recognised in "financial income, net" during the six months period ended 30 June 2014 and 2013 were $146 and $345, respectively.
NOTE 5:- NON CONTROLLING INTERESTS
Non-controlling interests of subsidiaries represent the non-controlling shareholders' share of the total comprehensive income (loss) of the subsidiaries and fair value of the net assets upon the acquisition of the subsidiaries. The non-controlling interests are presented in equity separately from the equity attributable to the equity holders of the Company.
NOTE 5:- NON CONTROLLING INTERESTS (Cont.)
Redeemable non-controlling interests are classified as mezzanine equity, separate from permanent equity, on the consolidated balance sheets and measured at each reporting period at the higher of their redemption amount or the non-controlling interest book value, in accordance with the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 810 "Consolidation" and ASC 480-10-S99-3A, "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity".
