Paris, November 5, 2019 - ATEME (ISIN: FR0011992700), the emerging leader in video delivery infrastructure, generated revenues of €15.4 million for the Third Quarter of 2019, up by 1% on a reported basis and down by 2% at constant currency.

Revenues for the First Nine Months stood at €45.5 million, up by 18% reported and by 14% at constant currency. All regions excepting Asia Pacific demonstrated a double-digit rise:

• The USA/Canada region remained the first contributor to revenues, at 39% of the group total, with a 14% year-on-year increase (7% at constant currency);
• EMEA revenues now represent 34% of the group total with a 22% year-on-year increase (21% at constant currency);
• Revenues were up by 1% in Asia Pacific (-4 % at constant currency), reflecting a tough comparison basis, with revenues up 48% in the corresponding period in 2018;
• Revenues in Latin America rose by 48% (40% at constant currency), reflecting notably the deployment of TITAN in multiple countries by a couple of strategic clients.

Outlook

Third Quarter revenue growth was below the rate at the end of the First Half, but with a more favorable product mix, which should have a positive impact on gross margin and profitability.

ATEME also secured further recurring revenues, including subscription-based agreements with new streaming platforms and several multi-year deployment contracts with Tier 1 content and service providers. ATEME expects to secure further commitments from key customers in the Fourth Quarter. The pursuit of such contracts is a key component of ATEME's development strategy, aimed at higher predictability in topline growth, and enhancing control over the pace of investments. We are in the process of defining and will communicate on a metric reflecting the level of backlog and recurring revenues in 2020.

Michel Artières, CEO and President of ATEME, commented: "The first nine months of 2019 have been very positive in increasing the level of recurring revenues, thereby cementing the growth foundations of the company. The increased contribution of higher-margin software sales in the Third Quarter, together with a seasonality in the industry which favors the Second Half, means we are confident of an improved result for the year as a whole."
