The consolidated financial statements have been audited. The auditors' report will be published once the due diligence procedures required for the publication of the yearly financial report are complete.

DALET, a leading provider of software solutions for the creation, management and distribution of multimedia content for broadcasters, operators and content producers, has published its yearly audited results for financial year 2017.

Record revenues, continued improvement of the Gross Margin

Dalet posted in 2017 its ninth consecutive year of growth, with record revenues at €51.1 million, up 6% when compared to 2016. The improved sales mix and a better margin on services contributed to a Gross Profit of €28.7 million, up by 8%.

Current operating margin reaches upper range of guidance

As a result of well-controlled expenses, in particular moderate increase of R&D spending, current operating income climbed to €2.4 million, up 73% as compared to 2016. In percentage, current operating margin for 2017 was 4.7%, in the upper range of the margin objectives defined by the group in its 2016/2017 business plan.

An exceptional provision for €0.6 million was recorded related to the final settlement of a commercial dispute on an old project from 2014. The resulting operating income reached €1.9 million, up 42%. After financial expenses and income tax, including a deferred tax expense (non cash) of €0.3 million, net income was up by 10% at €0.7 million.

Net cash position: €2.2 million

Net cash on 31 December 2017 stands at €2.2 million, up by €0.9 million. Shareholders' equity stood at €15.2 million on 31 December 2017.

Outlook: sustained revenue growth and current operating margin target of 5% to 6% in 2018

Dalet confirms the target of mid to high single digit organic revenue growth in 2018 announced together with the publication of its 2017 revenues.

Dalet's revenue growth will be aided by the enriched feature set of its product portfolio in particular on the new Artificial Intelligence technologies. These offerings are just starting to be released and they were very well received at the recent April NAB show in Las Vegas.

In parallel, the group will continue to realize margin improvements based on the combination of higher software revenues in the sales mix, further gains in service margins, and better distribution of fixed costs across the larger volume of revenue. Dalet's objective for 2018 current operating margin is between 5% and 6%.
