Year-End Report for SENSYS® Traffic AB (publ)

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS DURING THE QUARTER
· Delivery of standard series to the Swedish Transport Administration, giving rise to SEK 16.0m being recorded as income. The project has thereby entered a series production phase with estimated delivery start in the second quarter 2014.
· Orders totalling SEK 16.4m received from existing customers in the United States and Malta.
· Orders totalling SEK 11.1m received from two new customers in Saudi Arabia and Jordan.

CEO COMMENTARY
The major event in 2013 was that Sensys signed a contract with the Swedish Transport Administration for the replacement and expansion of the Swedish ATC system. Standard series for the ATC systems were completed during the past quarter as planned, which paves the way for suborders for series deliveries. Prior to commencing deliveries, a service organisation is being built up to handle the installation, operational start-up and maintenance of the ATC systems in Sweden, with the ambition that such service will provide Sensys with a stable income flow for several years to come. It also gives us the opportunity to develop the products and operations through a dialogue with the Swedish Transport Administration, which in turn should also strengthen our position within our international activities.
With the Swedish ATC contract, our total order intake quadrupled in 2013 to SEK 169.7m from SEK 40.8m in 2012. The value of the Swedish contract is estimated to be SEK 100-500m over a period of nine years. This provides us with a stable platform, both financially and from a production aspect, from which we can continue to cultivate the international market. We have chosen to focus on certain markets where there is a large potential for our products. My goal is that we shall continue to grow and achieve durable profitability.
I believe that we are also moving in the right direction with regards to our international business. Our total order intake in the fourth quarter amounted to SEK 29.6m (6.4) and came entirely from markets outside Sweden. Orders from international markets thereby increased by 53 percent to SEK 57.4m. In Malta, we obtained a contract with our existing customer by developing a new business model together with the customer. This type of solution is part of our strategy to create operator-adapted business models that also provide Sensys with a more stable cash-flow profile. We obtained orders during the year, against tough competition, totalling SEK 17.2m from five new customers in the Middle East and Asia.

OPERATIONS DURING THE QUARTER
Sensys Traffic develops, markets and sells systems for traffic safety and traffic informatics that are primarily used to measure and record speed and red-light offences. Individual orders are often of such a size that they perceivably affect sales and operating results. As a rule, Sensys publishes such orders as soon as they are received.
The order intake during the fourth quarter increased to SEK 29.6m (6.4), and referred mainly to contracts in the Middle East and the United States.
Net sales rose to SEK 32.2m (25.3) and were composed of deliveries to the United States and the delivery of prototypes and standard series to the Swedish Transport Administration. The Company records income in the contract with the Swedish Transport Administration on a progressive basis in tandem with deliveries taking place to the customer.
The gross margin for the quarter was 46.3 percent (49.9).
The operating profit for the fourth quarter amounted to SEK 3.7m (1.8), and the profit after tax was SEK 3.9m (loss: -5.4). A revaluation of the Company’s deferred tax recoverable was made in the fourth quarter, resulting in a tax cost for the Company of SEK 6.6m. The revaluation was a consequence of the Swedish Parliament’s decision to reduce the corporate tax rate for 2013 to 22 percent.

FULL-YEAR 2013
The total order intake for 2013 quadrupled to SEK 169.7m (40.8), with the contract signed with the Swedish Transport Administration representing the greater part. Net sales during the year increased by 52 percent to SEK 62.5m (41.0), and were composed of large deliveries to the United States for the project in Washington DC, and of pre-deliveries to the Swedish Transport Administration. The gross margin strengthened to 43.2 percent (27.2).
The operating loss for the full-year 2013 amounted to SEK -10.5m (-41.5), and the loss after tax was SEK -10.5m (-43.1).
All costs for non-order-specific development are charged to operations.

The Company also has a 3o month deposit of SEK 10m as security towards the Swedish Transport Administration.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTY FACTORS
The Company’s significant risk and uncertainty factors include business risks related to customers, suppliers and general global conditions. There are also financial risks associated with fluctuations in exchange rates and interest levels.
A summary of the Company’s significant financial and business risks is set out on pages 12, 25 and 33 of the Annual Report for 2012. No additional material risks are deemed to have since arisen.

ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
This interim report has been prepared in compliance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The accounting principles and definitions applied in this report are unchanged from the most recent annual report. In the fourth quarter, income related to the order from the Swedish Transport Administration has been reported in accordance with the so-called percentage of completion method. The Company follows the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and Recommendation RFR 2 Reporting for Legal Entities of the Swedish Financial Reporting Board. The application of RFR 2 implies that the Company applies in this year-end report all IFRS items and statements made as far as possible within the framework of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act approved by the EU, with consideration being taken for any relationship between accounting and taxation.
In July 2010, Sensys Traffic acquired all shares in a Swedish limited company [aktiebolag] that now has the name Sensys International AB. This company is totally dormant, and has been since it was formed. The objective of the acquisition is only to fulfil conditions in an international procurement process. Sensys does not intend to carry out any business activity through Sensys International AB within the forthcoming year.
In view of that Sensys International AB is dormant, and has never carried out any business, no consolidated accounts have been prepared.
In view of that the Company only has one operating segment, no separate segment-reporting is made. The change in shareholders’ equity corresponds fully with the reported profit/loss (IAS 1).
