Hologram. Industries : Revenue at September 30, 2013: €33.3M

Regulatory News :

Hologram. Industries (Paris:HOL) :

The Group had sales in the 2013 third quarter of €10.2 million, down 7.2% from last year's same period. This decrease reflects timing differences for orders and invoicing since the second quarter that it has not possible to reduce.

Year-to-date for the first nine months, revenue contracted 0.7% year-on-year.

Sales volume from new business amounted to €4.8 million (compared to €5.5 million for the first nine months of 2012).

• Revenue by geographic market

With sustained growth momentum, Western Europe registered the strongest gain in the period with (+31%). In contrast, Asia remained impacted by invoicing timing differences as well as a drop in sales for Motorola products in this region.

• Breakdown by user application

Sales growth was driven mainly by vehicle identification (+12%) and fiduciary documents (+€1.0m). Despite a €1.5 million decline, identity documents remain the Group's primary user application (50% of consolidated revenue). The brand protection segment was impacted in particular by the continuing reduction of sales with Motorola.

In the total revenue mix, digital activities represented €2.8 million in sales volume for the first nine months compared with €3 million from the same period in 2012.

• Financial position and outlook

Group debt, net of cash, amounted to €5.3 million at September 30, 2013.

Despite the relative stability of sales to date, the level for the fourth quarter should allow the Group to achieve, in line with expectations, a performance of sustained growth in relation to the prior years.
