Outlook for 2016
We estimate that net sales and operating profit for 2016 will exceed the 2015
level.
Comments on the last quarter of 2015 by CEO Jukka Rinnevaara:
"Orders received and net sales from the fourth quarter were the best in
Teleste's history. Also, the order backlog surpassed the previous year,
particularly in access network products, whereas the operating profit fell from
the comparative period. Operating profit was impacted negatively by the
weaker-than-expected profitability of the services business and the fact that
the main part of deliveries in access network products fell on lower-margin
products subject to competition. Moreover, fixed costs were exceptionally at a
higher level than those of the previous quarters. Management of working capital
called for special attention as the business continued to grow rapidly.
Orders received by Video and Broadband Solutions grew, especially in the access
network products and in the information solutions by Mitron. Net sales, too,
increased in the said product groups. For the access network products, the most
significant increase in the orders received and the deliveries took place in
the UK, Belgium and Holland. We estimate that Teleste's position remained
strong in the new products complying with the Docsis 3.1 standard. In the
fourth quarter, deliveries and profitability in the Video Security and
Information solutions remained at a good level.
Net sales of Network Services reached the level of the comparative period,
whereas the operating profit remained below that of the comparative period.
Operating profit decreased in the UK, where the launch of new customer projects
and the expansion of business continued to cause losses. In Germany, operating
profit fell slightly short of the comparative period."

Personnel and Organisation in January-December 2015
In the period under review, the average number of people employed by the Group
was 1,485 (1,302/2014, 1,306/2013); of these 697 (560) were employed by Video
and Broadband Solutions, and 788 (741) by Network Services. At the end of the
review period, the Group employed 1,506 people (1,343/2014, 1,261/2013) of whom
68% (72%/2014, 71%/2013) were stationed abroad. About 3% of the Group's
employees were working outside Europe.
Personnel expenses increased from the previous year by 18.5% to EUR 70.5
(59.5/2014 and 56.9/2013) million. This growth in personnel expenses was due to
the Mitron acquisition, increased number of personnel abroad and exchange rate
changes. From the beginning of the reporting period, the number of employees
increased by more than 160 people. The average number of employees increased by
14.2%. Most of this growth resulted from the Mitron acquisition, but also the
number of personnel employed by Network Services increased.
Investments in January-December 2015
Investments by the Group in the period under review totalled EUR 16.9 (3.7)
million accounting for 6.8% (1.9%) of the net sales. EUR 11.5 million of these
investments involved the acquisition of Mitron. Investments in product
development equalled EUR 1.7 (1.1) million. Other investments involved
information systems and machines as well as equipment. Investments of EUR 1.7
(0.3) million were carried out under financial lease arrangements.
Product development projects focused on network products complying with the
Docsis 3.1 standard, a network management system, distributed access
architecture, video security and information solutions, as well as
customer-specific projects.
Financing and Capital Structure in January to December 2015
Cash flow from operations stood at EUR 4.9 (9.2) million. This year-on-year
decline in the operating cash flow was due to a growth in net working capital.
The single most significant reason behind this growth in net working capital
was the expansion of business of Video and Broadband Solutions.
In January, Teleste Corporation signed new overdraft and revolving credit
facilities with a total value of EUR 45.0 million. These new agreements
replaced the corresponding previous funding agreements. These credit limits are
valid until the end of March 2018. At the end of the period under review, the
amount of unused binding stand-by credits amounted to EUR 17.7 (17.0) million.
The Group's equity ratio equalled 48.3% (53.4%) while net gearing was 26.3%
(9.5%). On 31 December 2015, the Group's interest-bearing debt stood at EUR
33.0 (24.4) million.
Key Risks Faced by the Business Areas
Founded in 1954, Teleste is a technology and services company consisting of two
business areas – Video and Broadband Solutions and Network Services. With
Europe as the main market area, our clients include European cable operators
and specified organisations in the public sector.
As to Video and Broadband Solutions, client-specific and integrated deliveries
of solutions create favourable conditions for growth, even if the concerned
resource allocation and technical implementation pose a challenge involving,
therefore, also reasonable risks. In particular, deliveries of integrated
safety and information systems for the passenger transport may be large in
size, setting high demands for the project quotation calculation and management
and, consequently, there are risks involved. Our customers' network investments
vary based on the relevant need for upgrading and their financial structure.
A significant part of Teleste's competition comes from the USA so the exchange
rate of euro up against the US dollar affects our competitiveness. The exchange
rate development of the US dollar and the Chinese renminbi to the euro affects
our product costs. The company hedges against short-term currency exposure by
means of forward exchange contracts. The modest development in economic growth
and the financial challenges faced by the European public sector may slow down
the implementation of our customers' investment plans. Furthermore, a weakening
in the consumer purchasing power in Europe could slow down the network
investments by the cable operators. Competition increased by the new service
providers (OTT) may undermine the cable operators' ability to invest.
Availability of components is subject to natural phenomena, such as floods and
earthquakes. Correct technological choices and their timing are vital to our
success. Regardless of careful planning and quality assurance, complex products
may fail in the customer's network and lead to expensive repair obligations.
Net sales of Network Services comes, for the most part, from a small number of
large European customers, so a significant change in the demand for our
services by any one of them is reflected in the actual deliveries and
profitability. Improvements in customer satisfaction and productivity require
efficient control of service process management as well as innovative solutions
in processes, products and logistics to ensure the quality of services and cost
effectiveness. Smooth operation of cable networks necessitates efficient
technical management of the networks and functional solutions for devices in
accordance with contractual obligations. This, in turn, demands continuous and
determined development of skills and competencies in Teleste's own personnel as
well as those of our subcontractors. In addition, adequacy and utilization
rates of our own personnel and subcontractor network capacity affect the
Company's delivery capacity and profitability. Tender calculation and
management of larger projects with overall responsibility are complex and
risky. Severe weather conditions may affect the supply conditions of our
products and services.
Teleste’s strategy involves risks and uncertainties: new business opportunities
may fail to be identified or they cannot be acted upon successfully. The
business areas will have to keep an eye on market movements, such as
consolidations among the customers and competitors. Intensifying competition
may decrease the prices of products and solutions faster than we manage to
reduce our products’ manufacturing and delivery costs. Various information
systems are critical to the development, manufacturing and supply of products
to our customers. Maintenance of information systems and deployment of new
systems involve risks that may affect our ability to deliver products and
services. Information systems may also be subject to external threats, from
which we aim to protect ourselves. Acquisition of skilled personnel and
maintenance of their competence require encouragement, development and
recruitment, which can fail.
The Board of Directors annually reviews any essential risks related to the
company operation and the management thereof. Risk management constitutes an
integral part of the strategic and operative practices of our business areas.
Risks are reported to the Board on a regular basis.
The company has covered any major risks of loss related to the business areas
through insurance policies. Insurance will also cover credit loss risks related
to sales receivables. In the period under review, no such legal proceedings or
judicial procedures were pending that would have had any essential significance
for the Group operation.

parent company Teleste Corporation had 321,953 shares and the Group companies
had 542,000 shares, respectively. At the end of the period, the Group's holding
of the total amount of shares amounted to 4.6% (6.3%).

Oy Ltd by Teleste Corporation. In February, the Company transferred 73,644
shares in a directed free share issue constituting part of Teleste
Corporation's 2012 long-term incentive plan. In May, the Company transferred

subscribe may not exceed 2,500,000 shares; these special rights are included in
the maximum warrants concerning new shares and the Group's own shares mentioned
above. This authorisation is valid until 31 March 2017.
Decisions by the Annual General Meeting
The Annual General Meeting (AGM) of Teleste Corporation on 09 April 2015
confirmed the financial statements for 2014 and discharged the Board of
Directors and the CEO from liability for the financial period. The AGM
confirmed the dividend of EUR 0.20 per share as proposed by the Board. The
dividend was paid out on 20 April 2015.
The AGM decided that the Board of Directors consists of six members. Mr. Pertti
Ervi, Ms. Jannica Fagerholm, Mr. Esa Harju, Ms. Marjo Miettinen, Mr. Kai
Telanne and Mr. Petteri Walldén were re-elected as members of Teleste
Corporation's Board of Directors. Ms. Marjo Miettinen was elected Chair of the
Board in the organising meeting held immediately after the AGM.
Authorized Public Accountants KPMG Oy Ab continue as the auditor until the next
AGM. Mr. Esa Kailiala, accountant authorized by the Central Chamber of Commerce
of Finland, was chosen auditor-in-charge.
The Annual General Meeting decided to authorize the Board of Directors to
decide on repurchasing the Company's own shares as proposed by the Board. Based
on this authorization, the Board of Directors may repurchase a maximum of
1,200,000 own shares of the Company otherwise than in proportion to the
holdings of the shareholders by using the non-restricted equity through the
regulated market on NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd at the market price prevailing at
the time of acquisition. This authorization of purchasing is valid for 18
months from the date of the decision.
Outlook for 2016
The business objective of Video and Broadband Solutions is to maintain its
strong market position in Europe and to strengthen this market position in
selected new markets outside Europe. Network capacity will continue to increase
driven by the new broadband and video services provided by the operators. Our
new products in line with the Docsis 3.1 communication standard allow the cable
operators to increase their network capacity competitively. Price erosion in
the market continues. Changes in the value of the euro, particularly against
the US dollar and the Chinese renminbi, affect Teleste’s competitiveness, on
the one hand, and product manufacturing costs, on the other. The positive trend
in the markets for video security and passenger information solutions will
continue whereas the public sector decisions concerning initiation of projects
may be delayed by the current economic situation. The security solution for
public areas introduced in Paris provides new opportunities for other major
cities of the world. Train manufacturers and public transport operators benefit
from Teleste's video security and passenger information solutions.
As to Network Services, our business objective is to further develop the
operational efficiency and increase the share of those services that provide
our customers with higher value. In the UK, our aim is to improve the
profitability of the provided services. We estimate the demand for
all-inclusive network services in our key target markets to continue at least
at the previous year level.
We estimate that net sales and operating profit for 2016 will exceed the 2015
level.
