CEO REVIEW

Valued shareholders, customers, partners, and co-workers,

During the first quarter, we continued aligning our organization towards our new strategy and operating model while making growth investments that we started in the second half of 2020, including strengthening our personnel and marketing.

We estimate that these investments will increase revenues from the end of the second quarter, and we expect a strong second half of the year. The well-prepared integration of the acquired Deltagon business, and the commercial deployments of NQX, for which we secured two new customers during Q1 2021, will help drive momentum.

Our first quarter net sales were soft, showing a 15% decline compared to Q1 2020 due to our largest product family Tectia declining in sales. We are in the process of revitalizing the Tectia business and we already have identified likely growth paths for the product. Additionally, the major contract for the delivery of cryptographic products and services awarded in December 2020 was delayed for reasons beyond our control during the first quarter, but the agreement will finally be moving ahead.

Despite cybersecurity investments being still partly on hold, we believe that the deferrals of these vital investments will not be sustained during the second half of the year. During the first quarter, we also saw a significant increase in cyber threats across industries, which should increase demand for easily deployable solutions to securing digital assets, making SSH well-positioned to capitalize on evolving digital threats.

Financial Performance

Net sales for the first quarter were EUR 2.6 million (EUR 3.1 million), down 15 % compared to Q1 2020.

License sales were down 31% while subscription sales were up 49% compared to Q1 2020. Maintenance sales decreased 14% compared to Q1 2020.

The company’s operating expenses increased 16 % compared to Q1 2020. A significant part of this increase was due to items affecting comparability such as recruitment fees and expenses related to our ongoing ERP renewal project.

Due to the decline in revenue and increased growth investments, our EBITDA declined to EUR -0.9 million (EUR -0.1 million).

Our operating loss for the period was EUR -1.4 million (EUR -0.6 million) and the net loss for the period was EUR
-1.5 million (EUR -0.4 million).

Our operating cash flow for the period was EUR 0.0 million (EUR 1.2 million). Our balance sheet and cash position remain stable and enable SSH to execute its strategy.

Sales Performance

Sales in the EMEA region increased 7% compared to Q1 2020. Sales in the AMER region increased 6% compared to Q1 2020. Sales in the APAC region decreased 66% compared to Q1 2020, in part due to the impact of a large order in Q1 of 2020.

During the quarter, we continued the transition towards a subscription-based business model. All of our products are now available on a subscription basis.

Tectia® Client/Server sales declined during the quarter because of the large order recorded in Q1 2020 and the overall softness of the APAC region. However, Tectia for z/OS sales grew compared to Q1 2020 and we recorded a large Tectia z/OS sale to a major global automotive manufacturer during the quarter.

UKM®, NQX®, and PrivX® sales all increased compared to Q1 2020. We booked two large expansion deals for UKM to a Fortune 500 financial institution. PrivX sales grew by +189% with several new and expansion orders internationally. We also gained two new customers for NQX during the first quarter.

Deltagon Acquisition

On January 29, 2021, we announced that SSH subsidiary Kyberleijona Oy entered into an agreement to acquire Deltagon Oy, a leading Nordic provider of secure messaging and transaction solutions. With the acquisition, SSH gains a new, profitably growing subscription-based business, a strong position in the Nordic security messaging market, and a solid customer base.

The acquisition of Deltagon Oy, as announced on April 26, 2021, is now completed with all required regulatory approvals received and other closing conditions having been fulfilled. SSH will consolidate Deltagon Oy into the Group as a subsidiary starting April 26, 2021, and will be a part of the Group's financial reporting starting from Q2 of 2021.

As announced before, the acquisition is estimated to accelerate our revenue growth and improve our operating profit and cashflow from operations. The acquisition also supports our strategy of moving towards a subscription-based business model.

Outlook

With the exception of the APAC region, we saw business conditions starting to normalize during the first quarter. We had started making focused investments in sales and marketing, R&D, and professional services during the second half of 2020. This is evident in the growth of our operating expenses while the impact of these investments has not yet been visible in our top line.

While customers in some segments are still postponing their technology investments, many have returned to normal business. PrivX with its recurring revenue model is growing well today and NQX has attracted new commercial customers. We are excited about the Deltagon acquisition and are now proceeding with the integration of our businesses. Our major contract for the delivery of cryptographic products and services will begin to materialize soon and is based on subscription business model.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen a digitalization leap across industries whereby many organizations have gone through fundamental changes in ways of working and in the use of remote work tools. Investments in cybersecurity have not been equivalent to the accelerated adoption of new digital tools. We have recently seen a high number of severe cybersecurity incidents. We expect the second half of 2021 to be strong as companies release their cybersecurity investment budgets.

SHARE CAPITAL AND BOARD AUTHORIZATIONS

The company’s registered share capital on March 31, 2021, was EUR 1,164,066.99, consisting of 38,802,233 shares.

The Annual General Meeting approved the Board of Directors’ proposal to authorize the Board of Directors to decide upon the issuing of a maximum of 6,000,000 shares as a share issue against payment or by giving stock options or other special rights entitling to shares, in accordance with Chapter 10 Section 1 of the Finnish Companies Act, either according to the shareholders’ pre-emptive right to share subscription or deviating from this right, in one or more tranches. Based on the authorization, it can be either issuing of new shares or transfer of own shares, which the company may have in its possession.

Based on the authorization, the Board of Directors shall have the same rights as the Annual General Meeting to decide upon the issuing of shares against payment and special rights (including stock options) in accordance with Chapter 10 Section 1 of the Finnish Companies Act. Thereby, the authorization to be given to the Board of Directors includes, inter alia, the right to deviate from the shareholders’ pre-emptive rights with directed issues providing that the company has a compelling financial reason for the deviation with respect to the share issue against payment.

Furthermore, the authorization includes the Board of Directors' right to decide upon who is entitled to the shares and/or stock options or special rights in accordance with Chapter 10 Section 1 of the Finnish Companies Act as well as upon the related compensation, subscription and payment periods and the registering of the subscription price into the share capital or invested non-restricted equity fund within the limits of the Finnish Companies Act.

The authorization will be valid until the next Annual General Meeting but will expire at the latest on June 30, 2022.

The Annual General Meeting approved the Board of Directors’ proposal to authorize the Board of Directors to decide upon acquisition of a maximum of 2,000,000 own shares of the company with assets belonging to the company’s non-restricted equity, which amounts to approximately 5.2 percent of the company’s total shares. The shares can also be acquired other than in proportion to the holdings of the existing shareholders. The maximum compensation to be paid for the acquired shares shall be the market price at the time of purchase, which is determined by public trading.

The Board of Directors proposes that the authorization for the acquiring of the company's own shares would be used, inter alia, in order to strengthen the company's capital structure, to finance and realize corporate acquisitions and other arrangements, to realize the share-based incentive programs of the company or otherwise to be kept by the company, to be transferred for other purposes or to be canceled. The acquisition of shares reduces the company's distributable non-restricted equity.

A decision concerning the acquisition of own shares must be made so that the combined amount of the own shares, which are in possession of, or held as pledges by, the company or its subsidiaries does not exceed one-tenth of all shares. The Board of Directors shall decide upon all other matters related to the acquisition of shares.

The authorization will be valid until the next Annual General Meeting but will expire at the latest on June 30, 2022.


RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic is a major macro-level risk that, if prolonged, may affect SSH Communications Security through challenges it poses on new license sales. The most substantial risks that might otherwise affect the profitability of the company have remained the same as in the previous reporting period and are listed below.

Largest risks:
- Uncertainty of the macroeconomic environment, such as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic
- Cybercrime, including, e.g., ransomware
- Delays in product development and closing new business as well as phasing of new business cases
- Ability to execute the strategy
- Ability to retain and recruit key personnel
- Maintaining the ability to innovate and develop the product portfolio including intellectual property rights (IPR)
- IPR litigation and utilization of the patent portfolio
- A large portion of the company revenue is invoiced in USD currency, and possible significant fluctuation in USD currency rates during 2021 could have unpredictable effects on profitability. The company decides on hedging of USD-based contracts case by case.

Principles and organization of risk management of SSH Communications Security are available on the company´s web page: www.ssh.com.
