CEO'S REVIEW

The first half of 2014 finished in line with previous set expectations as we continued to invest the development of our operations, product development and key customer acquisitions. Major cases continue to move well down the pipeline and we expect to see more significant deals closing in Q3 and Q4.

With the continuous and increasing number and flow of publicized cybersecurity breaches, our technology continues to receive reaffirmation of its relevance in both the commercial and government sectors as our pipeline develops at a healthy rate.  An important win in Q2 was successfully helping one our largest Universal SSH Key Manager customers to close an audit point which had been outstanding since 2009.  Additional successful deliveries of our CryptoAuditor technology have now permitted us to successfully penetrate and deploy reference cases in each region of the globe.

A major trend evolving is the quick proactive movements of governments to reassess, confirm and ensure the confidentiality and security of their encrypted networks. SSH as a trusted encryption provider is ideally positioned to capitalize on this development and has seen multiple inquiries for assistance over the last several months.

We will be releasing an SSH Risk Assessment Snapshot Service in Q3 which will provide customers a quick and easy method to determine previously unidentified risks around user access into critical infrastructure. It will serve as an additional method for SSH to build closer customer intimacy and differentiated market leadership in the space.

Progress is also being made with our intellectual property and the first engagements have now been opened for potential licensing opportunities.  These are expected to contribute significantly to our company’s revenue growth over the coming years.

Despite the risk of longer than desirable sales cycles typical with larger enterprise customers, the outlook for the remainder of the year continues to progress favorably.

Tatu Ylönen
CEO



NET SALES

Consolidated net sales for April-June totaled EUR 3.4 million (EUR 3.3 million), up by 4.5 %, year on year.

Consolidated net sales for January-June totaled EUR 6.3 million (EUR 6.2 million), up by 1.6 %, year on year.  
Sales growth was weak due to small amount of new licence deals. Complexity of customer needs and long sales cycles with big corporations impacted license sales growth.

The Americas, the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) market area and the Asia Pacific region accounted for 55.8% (42.9%), 30.5% (45.6%) and 13.7% (11.5%) of reported net sales, respectively. The change of geographical focus of a significant customer project impacts the changes between relative share of net sales between regions.

SHARE CAPITAL AND BOARD AUTHORIZATIONS

The company’s registered share capital on June 30, 2014 was EUR 924,753.99 consisting of 30,825,133 shares.

The Annual General Meeting approved the Board of Directors’ proposal to authorize the Board of Directors to decide upon the issuing of a maximum of 6,000,000 shares as a share issue against payment or by giving stock options or other special rights entitling to shares, in accordance with Chapter 10 Section 1 of the Finnish Companies Act, either according to the shareholders’ pre-emptive right to share subscription or deviating from this right, in one or more tranches. Based on the authorization, it can be either issuing of new shares or transfer of own shares which the company possibly has in its

possession. Based on the authorization, the Board of Directors shall have the same rights as the Annual General Meeting to decide upon the issuing of shares against payment and special rights (including stock options) in accordance with

Chapter 10 Section 1 of the Finnish Companies Act. Thereby, the authorization to be given to the Board of Directors includes, inter alia, the right to deviate from the shareholders’ pre-emptive rights with directed issues providing that the company has a weighty financial reason for the deviation in respect of the share issue against payment.

Furthermore, the authorization includes the Board of Directors’ right to decide upon who are entitled to the shares and/or stock options or special rights in accordance with Chapter 10 Section 1 of the Finnish Companies Act as well as upon the related compensation, subscription and payment periods and upon the registering of the subscription price into the share capital or invested non-restricted equity fund within the limits of the Finnish Companies Act.

The authorization will be valid until the next Annual General Meeting, but will however expire at the latest on June 30th 2015.

The Annual General Meeting approved the Board of Directors’ proposal to authorize the Board of Directors to decide upon the acquiring of a maximum of 2 000 000 own shares of the company with assets belonging to the company’s non-restricted equity. This amount corresponds approximately to 6.50% of all the shares of the company. The shares can also be acquired otherwise than in proportion to the holdings of the existing shareholders (targeted repurchase). The maximum compensation to be paid for the acquired shares shall be the market price at the time of purchase, which is determined in the public

trading.

The Board of Directors proposed that the authorization for the acquiring of the company’s own shares would be used, inter alia, in order to strengthen the company's capital structure, to finance and realize corporate acquisitions and other arrangements, to realize the share-based incentive programs of the company or otherwise to be kept by the company, to be transferred for other purposes or to be cancelled. The acquisition of shares reduces the company’s distributable non-restricted equity.

Decision concerning the acquiring of own shares cannot be made so that the combined amount of the own shares which are in the possession of, or held as pledges by, the company or its subsidiaries exceeds one-tenth of all shares. The Board of Directors shall decide upon all other matters related to the acquisition of shares.

The authorization will be valid until the next Annual General Meeting, but will however expire at the latest on June 30th 2015.


RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Largest risks that might impact the profitability of the company have remained by and large the same than in previous reporting period and are listed below. Other risks, which are currently either unknown or considered immaterial to SSH Communications Security may, however, become material in the future.

Largest risks:
- continuing uncertainty of the macroeconomic environment
- delays on product development and closing new business
- competitiveness of the product portfolio including intellectual property (IPR)
-  litigation, especially in U.S. market
-  competitive dynamics in the industry
-  ability of the organization to scale up operations with the growth
-  large portion of the company revenue is invoiced in USD currency so possible large fluctuation in USD currency rates during 2013 could have unpredictable effects for profitability that are at the time difficult to estimate. Currently USD currency position is not hedged, and company decides hedging of USD based contracts case by case.

Principles and organization of risk management of SSH Communications Security can be read from company´s webpage:

In 2014, SSH Communications Security estimates its revenue to grow significantly and profitability to improve from 2013.
