A WEAK QUARTER ENDING A CHALLENGING YEAR

FOURTH QUARTER

Revenues of 68 MSEK (80 MSEK) are 15 % below the same period in the previous
year. The revenue decline is driven by the same events as explained in the full
year comment below. In summary it relates to project delays in Eastern Europe,
Middle East and Africa while Western Europe and APAC performed well and ahead of
previous year. The gross margin reached 59 % (62 %) a difference mainly due to
increased depreciation of capitalized R&D. The fourth quarter result is affected
by a one-time restructuring charge of 3 MSEK. Excluding the restructuring charge
the operating earnings reached 1 MSEK (17 MSEK). The restructuring charge
relates to the efficiency and cost reduction program announced in October that
reduces our total cost base by 25 MSEK for 2013.

During the quarter we had a good flow of repeat business from customers across
the world but it was the first quarter in a long time where we actually did not
close any large single projects, which of course affects the result negatively.
As communicated earlier, single large projects will have a significant effect on
our quarterly financial performance.



FULL YEAR 2012



Already the first three quarters indicated relatively flat revenues and, with a
weak top line in the fourth quarter, we end the full year with total revenues of
280 MSEK (295 MSEK). The reported decline is 5 % and currency adjusted the
decline would be 3.5 %. The gross margin reached 60 % (62 %) and the slight
decline is mainly due to increased depreciations on capitalized R&D. The full
year operating result, excluding the restructuring charge of 3 MSEK, reached 6
MSEK (43 MSEK). The decline is explained by; 22 MSEK of increased Operating
Expenses, increased depreciation on R&D by 11 MSEK and lower revenues.



There are three main reasons why we were not able to grow in 2012. Projects
identified and targeted for 2012 in Eastern Europe, Middle East and Africa did
not materialize as planned and were delayed, but not lost. Secondly, five of our
ten largest target project opportunities were DTT-projects, none of which
materialized during the year, again not lost but delayed. Thirdly and
consequently, the average order size declined significantly meaning more efforts
to reach "flat" revenues.



Nevertheless, we had very important customer wins and we launched many new
products. Overall we did business with over 100 of our total 175 customers
around the world. We did business with over 25 new customers globally. We
continued to win the DTT expansions and increase our business and presence in
important countries like China and Brazil. The projects became smaller than
expected but just as an example, we already count 20 different customers in
China where we recently strengthened our presence.



The industry perception of a company is very important and as per recent report,
Devoncroft "The Big Broadcast Survey 2012, Net Insight has improved its
perception measurably over the last few years.



The market and technical trends that we have predicted are continuing in a way
that increases our credibility and relevance for future video and data intensive
network roll outs. During the year we also doubled the capacity of our core
switches, we launched three new access products and we introduced a cost
efficient possibility for network owners to improve picture quality over
unmanaged public internet connections. We also did significant business and had
very good market response for our new video compression module (JPEG2000).


We  were not able to  deliver a satisfactory result.  In summary 2012 was a year
when;  we  won  business  with  over  100 existing customers and 25 new ones. We
actually  concluded 30 % more  business transactions and  we introduced more new
products  than ever before. Net Insight is  very well positioned with medium and
large  size  network  operators  to  win  larger  projects,  and  to get back to
profitable growth again.
