CEO COMMENTARY
AUSTRIACARD HOLDINGS AG Group-CEO, Manolis Kontos, noted:
“2023 was a remarkable, transformational year for AUSTRIACARD. In March,
through a merger with our already listed sub INFORM in Greece our shares
were listed in both the Vienna and Athens exchanges, enabling investors to
participate in the successful course of the whole Group. In the middle of
the year we proceeded with the reorganization of our businesses along
geographic clusters, facilitating faster expansion in new markets,
enhancing at the same time cross selling and customer service. In December
we also completed our refinancing at Group level, securing significant
financial flexibility to pursue our growth objectives.
We posted one more year of strong growth in both revenues and
profitability. Group Adj. Revenues grew by 13.2%, Adj. EBITDA by 27.2%
and Net Income by 220.9%. If we exclude the Kenyan elections project
effect from 2022 results, the respective increases are 23.0% in Adj.
Revenues and 50.6% in Adj. EBITDA.
Performance was very strong in Central Eastern Europe & DACH, where Adj.
Revenues grew by 35.2% reaching €224.6mn and Adj. EBITDA by 166.8%
reaching €30.3mn, driven by Secure Chip & Payment, Digital Transformation
Solutions and consolidation of Romanian postal operations. In Western
Europe, Nordics & Americas, Adj. Revenues were flat at €116.0mn with Adj.
EBITDA at €17.9mn, affected mainly by the US regional bank turmoil in H2
2023. The US market remains a priority for the Group and we anticipate
strong contribution in the years to come. In the Türkiye, Middle East &
Africa segment, Adj. Revenues declined by 3.0% to €53.7mn and Adj. EBITDA
reached €4.9mn, due to the Kenyan elections comparable. Ex. Kenya, the
segment’s Adj. Revenues grew by 76.0% and Adj. EBITDA by 68.1%. The
performance in Türkiye reflects the ability of the Group in bringing
results in the markets we focus to grow our market share. (All segment
figures are displayed pre intragroup eliminations).
AUSTRIACARD just completed one year as a listed company and to reward our
shareholders we plan to propose to the AGM the distribution of a €0.10 per
share dividend.
Finally, on behalf of the Board I want to extend our warmest wishes to
Panagiotis Spyropoulos, our departing Group CEO. Panagiotis has been
instrumental, during the 13 years that he was at the helm, in expanding
AUSTRIACARD across all axes, geographic reach, size and profitability. We
thank him for his hard work, talent, loyalty and determination.”

Business Performance
AUSTRIACARD HOLDINGS Group revenues reached € 351.3m increasing by €
40.9m or 13.2% compared to 2022. The main drivers of this revenue increase
are attributed to a strong performance of the Secure Chip & Payment
Solutions
(€ +27m), especially in Central Eastern Europe & DACH, as well as Türkiye.
This amount includes € 9.5m revenues related to not-yet invoiced Contract
assets. The number of sold and invoiced cards increased by 7.1m or 5.6%
from 127.7m to 134.8m cards. Revenues from postal and distribution
services grew by € 20.0m mainly attributable to the Romanian market
through the majority stake acquisition of Pink Post solutions business.
Additionally, revenues in the field of digitalization solutions increased
by € 6.0m due to the start of the implementation of the public
digitalization projects in Greece and continued business growth in that
area in general. This strong performance in Secure Chip & Payment and
Digital Transformation Solutions, the two technology based pylons of the
Group, together with general improvement in other sectors more than
compensated the reduction in security printing related to the Kenya
elections project implemented 2022.
Gross profit I increased by € 20.7m or 15.0% to € 158.8m in 2023 as a
result of the strong increase in revenues. The Gross margin I increased by
0.7 percentage points to 45.2% mainly due to a higher average sales price
and the increase in service related revenues such as Document
Digitalization and distribution services.
Gross profit II increased by € 12.3m or 16.6% to € 86.8m in 2023 and Gross
margin II increased by 0.7 percentage points to 24.7% due to revenue
growth and economies of scale as result of the higher utilization of the
group’s production facilities.
Operating expenses excluding depreciation, amortization and impairment
(OPEX) increased by € 13.2m or 13.4% from € 98.5m to € 111.7m in 2023
mainly due to the addition of the Pink Post distribution business in
Romania (€ 10.0m), the finalization of the set-up of the personalization
facility in the US (€ 2.6m), higher headquarters expenses in the wake of
the listing at the Athens and Vienna stock exchanges and the
reorganization of group management (€ 1.4m). Also, OPEX increased as a
result of business growth, combined with inflationary salary and costs
increases, that more than offset the reduction in OPEX related to the
Kenya election project implemented in 2022 (€ -8.5m). As percentage of
revenues Operating expenses remained stable at 31.8% compared to 31.7% in
2022.
Adjusted EBITDA increased by € 10.6m or 27.2% from € 38.7m to € 49.3m in
2023, as a result of the strong operating performance of Secure Chip &
Payment Solutions in the Central Eastern Europe & DACH as well as Türkiye
markets, the consolidation of the Pink Post distribution business and the
growth of Digital Transformation Solutions, which more than compensated
higher OPEX requirements and the Kenya election project effect in 2022. As
a result, adjusted EBITDA margin increased by 1.6 percentage points from
12.5% to 14.0%.
Adjusted EBIT increased by € 8.8m or 36.3% reaching € 33.2m as the
increase in adjusted EBITDA was only partially compensated by higher
depreciation & amortization mainly related to recent investments. Adjusted
Profit before tax increased by € 6.0m or 29.9% reaching € 26.1m as the
higher adjusted EBIT was partially offset by higher interest expenses
driven by the increase in Euribor.
Profit after tax increased by € 11.7m and thus more than tripled from €
5.3m to € 17.0m due to the adjusted Profit before tax and the reduction of
non-cash expenses for management participation programs by € 5.0m.
Pro forma business performance excluding Kenya election project
As presented in the table below, excluding the effects of the Kenya
election project implemented in 2022 Revenues have increased by 23.0%,
Gross Profit II by 28.9% as the Gross profit II margin improved by 1.1
percentage points from 23.6% to 24.7% based on average sales price
increases, economies of scale and a higher contribution of services and
solutions, which have a higher margin, in revenues. OPEX in absolute terms
increased by 24.3% while OPEX as a percentage of revenues slightly
increased by 0.3 percentage points compared to 2022. Adjusted EBITDA
increased by 50.6% and the adjusted EBITDA margin improved by 2.6
percentage points to 14.0% in 2023.

Effect of IAS 29 Hyperinflation
As presented in the table below, the application of IAS 29 Hyperinflation
with respect to our Türkiye-based operations, hyperinflation accounting
increased Revenues by € 13.3m reaching € 364.6m in 2023 compared to by €
4.4m reaching
€ 314.7m in 2022. Hyperinflation accounting is also increasing adjusted
EBITDA, adjusted EBIT and adjusted Profit before tax in the IFRS Income
statement compared to the Management Income statement by € 1.3m, € 1.2m
respectively
€ 1.1m each in 2023 compared to € 0.4m in 2022. Due to the negative impact
of IAS 29 in Net finance costs, Profit before tax and Profit as per
Management Income statement are lower by € 0.2m in 2023 and by € 0.3m
respectively € 0.4m lower in 2022.

Financial Position
Total assets increased by € 51.5m from € 270.2m to € 321.7m as of 31
December 2023 which is mainly related to increases in inventories for raw
materials, goods-in-transit (€ +22.2m) and contract assets (€ +9.5m) and
restricted cash deposits received from customers included in other
receivables and contract liabilities (€ +8.1m). Non-current assets
increased by € 3.0m to € 156.8m mainly due to the cyclical revaluation of
land and buildings and the effects of hyperinflation accounting for the
operations in Türkiye (€ +2.5m) and investments in machinery which were
partially offset by depreciation and amortization and the reduction in
fair value of interest rate swaps for hedging purposes
(€ -1.4m).
Non-current liabilities increased by € 25.3m from € 90.0m to € 115.2m as a
result of the group-wide refinancing of loans & borrowings (€ +31.8m)
being partially offset by the derecognition of long-term liabilities for
management participation programs. Equity increased by € 26.3m due to the
Profit of the financial year and the implementation of the equity settled
stock option plan for senior group management (€ +9.4m). As a result of
the Company’s merger with its former subsidiary Inform P. Lykos Holdings
SA, Greece, non-controlling interest was reduced from € 11.6m to € 0.7m.
The Group’s equity ratio thus increased from 29.9% to 33.3% as of 31
December 2023.
Coming from a low level as of 31 December 2022, Net working capital
increased by € 35.1m or 152.5% from € 23.0m to
€ 58.2m due to the high level of Inventory and Contract assets. Net
working capital as a percentage of revenues increased from a very low
level in 2022 of 7.4%, after being at 15.8% in 2021 to 16.6% as of 31
December 2023.
Net Debt increased by € 18.5m from € 76.6m as of 31 December 2022 to €
95.0m as of 31 December 2023 due to the normalization and thus increase in
working capital requirements. The net debt / adjusted EBITDA ratio
decreased from 2.0 in 2022 to 1.9 as of 31 December 2023.
