Trading Update

Amino Technologies plc (LSE AIM: AMO), the global provider of digital TV entertainment and cloud solutions to network operators, provides the following trading update for the six months ended 31 May 2017.

The Group entered the period with a strong order backlog and continued its solid sales execution driven by consistent demand for IP devices. Trading for the period was therefore at record levels, in line with management's expectations.

Revenue for the period is expected to be approximately GBP40m representing c.21% growth over H1 2016 revenue of GBP33m. At constant currency with revenue translated at last year's average exchange rates, this represents revenue growth of c.5%.

Margins in the period have been strong. However, we anticipate that they will be lower in the second half of the year as the product mix shifts towards new product lines. As is typical with the launch of new products these will be lower margin, optimising over time as scale is reached. As a result, expectations for the full year remain unchanged.

Net cash at 31 May 2017 was GBP13.1 million (31 May 2016: GBP3.1m, 30 November 2016: GBP6.2m) and was positively impacted by the timing of delivery of larger orders which were completed well in advance of the period end.

Commenting on today's announcement, Keith Todd CBE, Non-Executive Chairman said:

"The momentum we saw in 2016 has continued into the first half of this year. Strong sales execution and growing traction for our wider portfolio positions the Group well to meet expectations for the full year."

The Company's interim results will be announced on 11 July 2017.
