CEO’S BUSINESS REVIEW
Valued customers, partners, co-workers, and shareholders,
I want to extend my congratulations to you all on your contribution to
increasing security and stability in your respective roles during a challenging
year.
Financially the year 2015 was challenging, with two major deals shifting away
from the year. We continued major R&D efforts and invested in creating a
market, creating success stories in SSH key management, and increasing delivery
capability. We also invested substantially in enforcing our patents.
Nevertheless, cash flow and cash position remained strong. Our sales pipeline
looks promising and there is more customer interest on SSH key management than
ever.
We successfully completed a major, multi-year key remediation at one of the
world's largest banks. We are now in early stages of key remediation projects
with several other major global financial institutions. We continue to be the
leader in SSH key management. We see the market evolving but still being at an
early stage.
We continued to invest in building our sales and support channel by making key
recruitments in the United States an Asia by opening an office in Japan and
certifying CryptoAuditor with multiple partners, including RSA Security
Analytics, McAfee, VCE vBlock System and Fujitsu. CryptoAuditor and SSH key
management support each other in the Identity and Access Management market,
e.g., in relation to securing 3rd party access. We will continue to expand our
role in that market through partnerships.
The overall political development has opened a market in governmental segment
for a supplier from a neutral country. We are aiming to enter this segment
during 2016 with a next generation firewall product for protecting critical
infrastructure. In the past, we have supplied packet processing and encryption
technology for 100+ firewall, VPN, and telecom vendors.
We continue enforcement of our patent rights. We are expecting the first
rulings this year.
During 2015, SSH Communications Security celebrated 20 years of success as the
inventor of the SSH protocol. The way the world is developing, the protocol is
more relevant today than ever. We could say that during 2015, cyber security
became an infinite game and a part of daily life. During 2016, the
understanding of the need to manage SSH keys in a proper manner will continue
to spread to auditors and board rooms. This is supported by NIST (US National
Institute of Standards and Technology) recommendations on how to manage your
SSH keys.
This means committing ourselves even more resolutely to advancing the adoption
of secure solutions and practices in the public and private sector, as well as
devoting significant resources to innovation and product development.
An indication of our growing commitment is the assignment of our founder Tatu
Ylönen as the Chief Operations Officer of SSH Communications Security. His
vision, experience and leadership qualities provide us with a unique
opportunity to apply scientific discovery and inquiry for the everyday benefit
of our customers and society in general.
In summary, I have great confidence in and expectations for the year ahead. May
it prove inspiring, secure and prosperous for us all.

consisting of 31,370,283 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
4,000,000 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 Limited Liability 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 Limited Liability 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 Limited Liability 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 Limited
Liability Companies Act.
The authorization will be valid until the next Annual General Meeting, but will
however expire at the latest on June 30th, 2016.
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 6.5 % 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 authorization for the acquiring of the company’s own shares will be used,
inter alia, 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, 2016.
DIVIDEND AND OTHER DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS
SSH Communications Security's Board of Directors will propose to the Annual
General Meeting on March 16th, 2016 that no dividend or return of capital shall
be distributed. It is proposed that the loss of the financial year shall be
entered to the shareholders’ equity in the profit/loss account.
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
Most significant risks that might impact the profitability of the company have
remained by and large the same as 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 2016 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. During 2015, USD currency positions have not been
hedged.
Utilization of the company´s patent portfolio may have significant positive
and/or negative impacts.
Principles and organization of risk management of SSH Communications Security
can be read from company´s webpage: www.ssh.com.
FUTURE OUTLOOK
In 2016, SSH Communications Security estimates its revenue to grow
significantly from 2015.
