Adamind Ltd
("Adamind" or the "Company")
Trading Statement
Adamind Ltd, a leading global supplier of media adaptation software in the
mobile messaging, content and convergence services markets, provides the
following trading update.
The Company expects the 2006 revenue split to be substantially weighted towards
the second half due to:
• delays in customer upgrades via channel partners, in particular, the
Company's largest channel partner;
• delays in the completion of a number of content deals; and
• increased emphasis on direct sales which have a longer sales cycle
As a result, the Company will report revenues substantially below market
expectations for the first half of 2006.
However, the Company still believes it will deliver significant year on year
growth in revenue and customer base. The Company's largest channel partner,
referred to above, has now begun its customer upgrade programme and a number of
discussions relating to content deals are at an advanced stage.
Adamind has continued to make further progress during the first half of 2006,
including:
• capacity and feature upgrades to existing customers in Western Europe;
• expansion of its global footprint into new fast growing markets
including China and India;
• finalising the upsell of new products with existing channels, for example,
device management and media adaptation for service delivery platforms;
• continued progress with content providers, including the first content
application service provider being launched with a customer in Malaysia;
• early stage progress in the convergence market around fixed and mobile
internet content delivery; and
• the Company's media adaptation software has been deployed by more than
100 networks including Verizon Wireless, North America's leading mobile
network, Taiwan Mobile and Universal Music Mobile US, a subsidiary of
Universal Music Group.
Adamind's pipeline of new orders for the second half and beyond remains strong
and the Company continues to make steady progress towards signing new licensing
deals as well as capacity upgrades from network operators and content owners
worldwide. However, the outcome for the first half means that there is a strong
likelihood that the results for the full year will be lower than expected.
The Company's balance sheet remains robust with net cash of $24.3m as at 31 May
2006.
