Philippe Vallée, Chief Executive Officer, commented: "Gemalto's revenue was
stable over the first nine months of 2016. In the third quarter, Enterprise and
Government Programs posted moderate revenue increases while Machine-to-Machine's
growth accelerated. Payment and SIM sales were in line with the Company's
expectations for the quarter. Gemalto expects to increase its gross margin by
+1.5 percentage point through an acceleration of revenue growth towards the end
of the year. From the current planning processes, Gemalto's 2017 profit from
operations is expected to be between ?500 million and ?520 million, which
corresponds to an annual expansion of around +10% since 2013. This outlook
reflects a very adverse mobile environment and slower than anticipated migration
of payment cards in 2017. It also takes into account plans for increased
investments to capture growth beyond 2017 in Mobile Platforms & Services,
Enterprise and Government Programs. Gemalto's Platforms & Services revenue
objective of ?1 billion in 2017 remains unchanged."
Basis of preparation of financial information
Segment information
The Mobile segment reports on businesses associated with mobile cellular
technologies including Machine-to-Machine, mobile secure elements (SIM, embedded
secure element) and mobile Platforms & Services. The Payment & Identity segment
reports on businesses associated with secure personal interactions including
Payment, Government Programs and Enterprise. The SafeNet acquisition in 2015 is
part of the Enterprise business.
In addition to this segment information the Company also reports revenues of
Mobile and Payment & Identity by type of activity: Embedded software & Products
(E&P) and Platforms & Services (P&S).
Historical exchange rates and constant currency figures
The Company sells its products and services in a very large number of countries
and is commonly remunerated in currencies other than the Euro. Fluctuations in
these other currencies exchange rates against the Euro have in particular a
translation impact on the reported Euro value of the Company revenues.
Comparisons at constant exchange rates aim at eliminating the effect of
currencies translation movements on the analysis of the Group revenue by
translating prior-year revenues at the same average exchange rate as applied in
the current year. Revenue variations are at constant exchange rates and include
the impact of currencies variation hedging program, except where otherwise
noted. All other figures in this press release are at historical exchange rates,
except where otherwise noted.
Adjusted income statement and profit from operations (PFO) non-GAAP measure
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
To better assess its past and future performance, the Company also prepares an
adjusted income statement where the key metric used to evaluate the business and
make operating decisions over the period 2010 to 2017 is the profit from
operations (PFO).
PFO is a non-GAAP measure defined as IFRS operating profit adjusted for (i) the
amortization and depreciation of intangibles resulting from acquisitions, (ii)
restructuring and acquisition-related expenses, (iii) all equity-based
compensation charges and associated costs; and (iv) fair value adjustments upon
business acquisitions. These items are further explained as follows:
* Amortization and depreciation of intangibles resulting from acquisitions are
defined as the amortization and depreciation expenses related to the
intangibles recognized as part of the allocation of the excess purchase
consideration over the share of net assets acquired.
* Restructuring and acquisitions-related expenses are defined as (i)
restructuring expenses which are the costs incurred in connection with a
restructuring as defined in accordance with the provisions of IAS 37 (e.g.
sale or termination of a business, closure of a plant,.), and consequent
costs; (ii) reorganization expenses defined as the costs incurred in
connection with headcount reductions, consolidation of manufacturing and
offices sites, as well as the rationalization and harmonization of the
product and service portfolio and the integration of IT systems, consequent
to a business combination; and (iii) transaction costs (such as fees paid as
part of an acquisition process).
* Equity-based compensation charges are defined as (i) the discount granted to
employees acquiring Gemalto shares under Gemalto Employee Stock Purchase
plans; (ii) the amortization of the fair value of stock options and
restricted share units granted by the Board of Directors to employees; and
the related costs.
* Fair value adjustments over net assets acquired are defined as the reversal
in the income statement of the fair value adjustments recognized as a result
of a business combination, as prescribed by IFRS3R. Those adjustments are
mainly associated with (i) the amortization expense related to the step-up
of the acquired work-in-progress and finished goods assumed at their
realizable value and (ii) the amortization of the cancelled commercial
margin related to deferred revenue balance acquired.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or
as a substitute for comparable IFRS measures and should be read only in
conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance
with IFRS.
In the adjusted income statement, Operating Expenses are defined as the sum of
Research and Engineering expenses, Sales and Marketing expenses, General and
Administrative expenses, and Other income (expense) net.
EBITDA is defined as PFO plus depreciation and amortization expenses, excluding
the above amortization and depreciation of intangibles resulting from
acquisitions.

For the third quarter of 2016 total revenue came in at ?753 million, lower by
(1%) at constant exchange rates. Payment & Identity, representing 62% of total
Company revenue, posted sales of ?467 million, up +1% year-on-year.
Embedded software & Products revenue of ?522 million was (2%) lower compared to
the same period last year due to lower sales to mobile network operators and to
a lesser extent to financial institutions. Secure documents for Government
Programs and wireless modules for Machine-to-Machine continued to record
positive trends this quarter. The Platforms & Services activity, posted sales of
?231 million, was stable year-on-year due to client delays in project
commencements for Mobile Platforms & Services, eGovernment services and
Enterprise cybersecurity solutions this quarter.
Currency movements had a negative (1) percentage point effect on revenue growth
in the third quarter of 2016. The hedging program, which aims at partially
neutralizing the impact of currency variations on the Company's profit from
operations, produced a 1 percentage point difference compared to the same period
last year.

Platforms & Services revenue came in at ?179 million, up +2% compared to the

The Payment business revenue came in at ?241 million, reduced by (3%) year-on-

and to the high comparison basis in United States related to the EMV liability
shift deadline a year ago.
The Enterprise business revenue increased to ?117 million, up +4% on the same
period in 2015. The trend in revenue mix within the Authentication business line
continues to move towards software and services. To meet the increasing market
demand for cybersecurity solutions, the Enterprise business is continuing to
increase its sales coverage, expanding Gemalto's network of technology partners
and accelerating investment in R&D in order to strengthen the Company's offering
in this growing sector.
The Government Programs business revenue was at ?109 million, up +9% year-on-
year, with the increase coming from deliveries of previously won projects.

Embedded software & Products revenue for the segment came in at ?234 million.
SIM sales were lower by (11%) at ?152 million year-on-year, compared to the

better conditions in Latin America and Asia. During the quarter, regulators of
some countries in Africa also started to apply stricter subscription
registration processes, similar to what is observed in the Chinese market with
lower market demand. The Machine-to-Machine business grew by +11% year-on-year,
at ?81 million and accelerating sequentially, supported by the expanding global
demand of connected devices and embedded secure elements for the Internet of
Things (IoT).
Platforms & Services revenue for the segment came in at ?52 million, reduced by
(9%) year-on-year with slower project commencements due to longer client
decision processes. During this quarter, Gemalto continues to progress with its
Trusted Service Hub (TSH) offering by partnering Dai Nippon Printing (DNP) in
Japan to offer issuers digital card provisioning and tokenization services for
Apple Pay, which is transforming mobile payments with an easy, secure and
private way to pay. Gemalto was also selected by Market Pay to load digital
Carrefour payment and loyalty cards as well as by Valeo to provision and store
virtual car keys securely into smartphones. The Company continues to work
closely with both device manufacturers and mobile network operators on the GSMA
specifications for embedded SIMs (eSIMs) and remote provisioning for primary
