Philippe Vallée, Chief Executive Officer, commented: "The first quarter revenue reflects the significant volatility in our Payment business in line with the unique pattern of EMV migration in the world's largest EMV market, the United States. In addition, the removable SIM business continues to decline while the ecosystem prepares for the next generation of devices. Consequently, Gemalto has launched a transition plan aimed at adjusting its Payment operations and Mobile business to reduced demand. For Enterprise, Government Programs and Machine-to-Machine businesses, Gemalto expects an acceleration in the second part of the year supported by solid backlogs and continues to invest in these businesses in line with their long term trends. The acquisition of the 3M Identity Management Business is on-track with all approvals received."

Basis of preparation of financial information

Segment information

The Mobile segment reports on businesses associated with mobile cellular technologies including Machine-to-Machine, mobile secure elements (SIM, embedded secure element) and mobile Platforms & Services. The Payment & Identity segment reports on businesses associated with secure personal interactions including Payment, Government Programs and Enterprise. The SafeNet acquisition in 2015 is part of the Enterprise business.

In addition to this segment information the Company also reports revenues of Mobile and Payment & Identity by type of activity: Embedded software & Products (E&P) and Platforms & Services (P&S).

Historical exchange rates and constant currency figures

The Company sells its products and services in a very large number of countries and is commonly remunerated in other currencies than the Euro. Fluctuations in these other currencies exchange rates against the Euro have in particular a translation impact on the reported Euro value of the Company revenues. Comparisons at constant exchange rates aim at eliminating the effect of currencies translation movements on the analysis of the Group revenue by translating prior-year revenues at the same average exchange rate as applied in the current year. Revenue variations are at constant exchange rates and include the impact of currencies variation hedging program, except where otherwise noted. All other figures in this press release are at historical exchange rates, except where otherwise noted.

Adjusted income statement and profit from operations (PFO) non-GAAP measure

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and with section 2:362(9) of the Netherlands Civil Code.
To better assess its past and future performance, the Company also prepares an adjusted income statement where the key metric used to evaluate the business and make operating decisions over the period 2010 to 2017 is the profit from operations (PFO).

PFO is a non-GAAP measure defined as IFRS operating profit adjusted for (i) the amortization and depreciation of intangibles resulting from acquisitions, (ii) restructuring and acquisition-related expenses, (iii) all equity-based compensation charges and associated costs; and (iv) fair value adjustments upon business acquisitions. These items are further explained as follows:

  • Amortization and depreciation of intangibles resulting from acquisitions are defined as the amortization and depreciation expenses related to the intangibles recognized as part of the allocation of the excess purchase consideration over the share of net assets acquired.
  • Restructuring and acquisitions-related expenses are defined as (i) restructuring expenses which are the costs incurred in connection with a restructuring as defined in accordance with the provisions of IAS 37 (e.g. sale or termination of a business, closure of a plant,.), and consequent costs; (ii) reorganization expenses defined as the costs incurred in connection with headcount reductions, consolidation of manufacturing and offices sites, as well as the rationalization and harmonization of the product and service portfolio, and the integration of IT systems, consequent to a business combination; and (iii) transaction costs (such as fees paid as part of the acquisition process).
  • Equity-based compensation charges are defined as (i) the discount granted to employees acquiring Gemalto shares under Gemalto Employee Share Purchase plans; (ii) the amortization of the fair value of share options and restricted share units granted by the Board of Directors to employees, and the related costs.
  • Fair value adjustments over net assets acquired are defined as the reversal, in the income statement, of the fair value adjustments recognized as a result of a business combination, as prescribed by IFRS3R. Those adjustments are mainly associated with (i) the amortization expense related to the step-up of the acquired work-in-progress and finished goods assumed at their realizable value and (ii) the amortization of the cancelled commercial margin related to deferred revenue balance acquired.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable IFRS measures and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS.
In the adjusted income statement, Operating Expenses are defined as the sum of Research and Engineering expenses, Sales and Marketing expenses, General and Administrative expenses, and Other income (expense) net.

EBITDA is defined as PFO plus depreciation and amortization expenses, excluding the above amortization and depreciation of intangibles resulting from acquisitions.

Net debt and net cash

Net debt is a non IFRS measure defined as total borrowings net of cash and cash equivalents. Net cash is a non IFRS measure defined as cash and cash equivalents net of total borrowings.

For the first quarter of 2017, total revenue came in at €651 million, lower by (6%) at historical exchange rates and by (8%) at constant exchange rates. Payment & Identity posted sales of €404 million, representing 62% of total Company revenue.
Embedded software & Products revenue of €439 million was (8%) lower compared to the same period
of last year mainly due to lower sales to banks in the United States and to mobile network operators.

Embedded software & Products activity for Government Programs continued to show positive trends during the quarter.

The Platforms & Services activity posted revenue of €212 million, down by (7%) year-on-year, with moderate growth in Mobile Platforms & Services partially offsetting the lower payment cards personalization services. Platforms & Services activity represented 32% of first quarter Company revenue.

Revenue variations by region, at constant and historical exchange rates, are presented in Appendix 1.
As announced on March 22, 2017 and based on the recent trends in Payment and removable SIM,

Gemalto has launched a transition plan expected to contribute over €50 million to profit from
operations annually. The on-going business efficiency program is being expanded to align to the long term market demand in terms of capacity, footprint and resources. One of the first areas of focus is to adjust Payment operations as the market is shifting to a normalized EMV inventory level after the initial United States ramp up. As part of the next multi-year development plan, the Company is also reviewing its portfolio of activities in order to align with its long-term priorities which includes the re-allocation of resources to growth businesses.

Year-on-year variation at constant exchange rates (8%)
The Payment & Identity segment's revenue came in at €404 million, decreasing by (8%) compared to the previous year.
The segment's Embedded software & Products revenue was €246 million and Platforms & Services revenue came in at €158 million.
The Payment business decreased by (16%) year-on-year, at €200 million. Sales in Americas were lower by (34%) due to the on-going normalization of US EMV card inventory levels at our customers. Revenue from all regions outside of Americas was stable year-on-year.
The Enterprise business revenue increased to €105 million, up +1% on the same period in 2016. The trend in revenue mix within the business continues to move towards a higher proportion of cloud and software services. To meet the market demand, the Enterprise business is increasing investment to expand its services portfolio in this growing sector.
The Government Programs business was stable at €99 million on top of a strong +34% increase a year ago. Solid performance in Government Programs Embedded software & Products fully offsets the reduction in Platforms & Services revenue. Backlog continued to expand during the quarter.

Revenue 247 258
Year-on-year variation at constant exchange rates (7%)
The Mobile segment posted revenue of €247 million, (7%) lower at constant exchange rates compared to the first quarter of the previous year.
Embedded software & Products revenue for the segment came in at €194 million. SIM sales decreased by (14%) to €118 million due to a lower market share in the first quarter in a more competitive landscape as mobile network operators push out the upgrade of removable SIM to focus on next generation connectivity. This is coupled with soft demand in Middle East and Africa as the result of stricter subscription registration processes. The Machine-to-Machine revenue was slightly lower by (1%) year-on-year, at €75 million, due to temporary weak performance in North America. New design wins recorded during the quarter will progressively drive business expansion across sectors and regions throughout the rest of the year.
Platforms & Services revenue for the segment came in at €53 million, up by +3% year-on-year. On demand connectivity solution continues to gain traction following the release of the latest GSMA specifications for embedded SIM and mobile subscription management.

Outlook
For the second quarter of 2017, business trends continue to be weak in Payment and SIM. As a result, the Company expects its second quarter revenue to be lower by 8% to 10% year-on-year at constant exchange rates. Due to this decrease, the operating leverage will not be fully realized over the semester and, as a result, the first semester profit from operations is expected to be between €90 million and €100 million.
For the second semester of 2017, with the expected revenue acceleration in Enterprise, Government Programs and Machine-to-Machine, the Company anticipates its revenue to be stable when compared to the same period of 2016 excluding the integration of 3M Identity Management business.
With the combination of this revenue trend, the ramping up of the transition plan and the modest contribution from the 3M Identity Management business, the Company expects its profit from operations to be between €300 million and €350 million for the second semester of 2017.
