Significant increase of the gross margin leading to net earnings at break-even level

The consolidated gross margin for the first half of 2014 increased by € 0.5 million and amounted to € 2.0 million. The gross margin rate was 31% of the consolidated revenue for the first half of 2014 compared to 20% for the first half of 2013 showing a significant increase by 11 points.

The growth of the Group’s gross margin and the control of the operating costs, which amounted to € 2.0 million (net of research & development grants) for the first half of 2014 compared to € 2.2 million for the first half of 2013, led to operating earnings at break-even level versus an operating loss of € (0.7) million for the first half of 2013.

Finally, the consolidated net earnings were at break-even level for the first half of 2014 versus a net consolidated loss of € (0.7) million for the first half of 2013.

Positive operating cash flow at € 0.7 million

The significant improvement in consolidated net earnings associated with the optimization of the working capital requirement of the Group resulted in a positive operating cash flow of € 0.7 million for the first half of 2014 versus a consumption of operating cash flow of € 0.7 million for the first half of 2013.

At June 30, 2014, the Group’s available liquidities amounted to € 3.2 million (December 31, 2013: € 2.5 million) including cash investments (Corporate bonds) for € 1.3 million recorded under financial assets available for sale.

MEMSCAP shareholders’ equity totaled € 17.2 million at June 30, 2014.

Analysis and perspectives

The first half of fiscal year 2014 validated the actions engaged to improve the operating margin and net earnings of the Company.

The Group relies on the sustained demand related to its avionics and medical / biomedical markets which represented more than 68% of the consolidated sales for the first half of 2014. As previously announced, the mass market segment initiated a gradual recovery during the first half of 2014.

At June 30, 2014, the Group benefits from a solid order backlog in avionics and medical market segments. The Company intends to continue its efforts focused on the improvement of its net earnings during the coming quarter.
