Pro forma operating income for Q1 2019 was EUR 2.7 million (2.1% of revenues), compared to EUR 8.1 million (6.2% of revenues) in Q4 2018 and a pro forma operating income of EUR 2.2 million in the same year-ago period.

The company's net debt increased by EUR 46.9 million to EUR 73.7 million from EUR 26.8 million at the end of the prior quarter. This is in particular due to the recognition of lease liabilities of EUR 36.8 million due to the first-time adoption of the IFRS 16 accounting standard.

"The new fiscal year started well. Both revenues and profitability developed according to plan," said Uli Dopfer, CFO, ADVA. "From March 18, 2019, we are a member of the SDAX index, which had been redefined in September 2018. This positive development shows that not only our customers are loyal to ADVA, but also the confidence of investors in our company and our technologies has returned."

"We continue to invest aggressively in innovation leadership, and our portfolio is very well aligned to current and emerging market trends," commented Brian Protiva, CEO, ADVA. "All three of our core technological competencies provide good revenue contributions. Geographically, we grew year over year again in the EMEA and Americas regions. We are winning tenders and new customers in our core markets."

Q2 2019 financial outlook
For Q2 2019, ADVA expects revenues to be in the range of EUR 130 million and EUR 140 million and a pro forma operating income of between 2% and 5% of revenues.

ADVA performs quarterly reviews of expected business development with respect to all intangible assets, including capitalized development expenses. In case of adverse business prospects, these reviews may result in non-cash impairment charges in Q2 2019 and beyond, which are excluded from the above guidance.

The company will publish its financial results for Q2 2019 on July 25, 2019.
