HYBRID SOFTWARE GROUP RELEASES Q3 RESULTS

Cambridge (UK) 20 October 2022 (18.00 CEST) -- Hybrid Software Group PLC (Euronext: HYSG) provides a trading update for the nine months ended 30 September 2022.

CEO Mike Rottenborn comments, "The third quarter of 2022 was marked by consistent performance in the Enterprise Software and Printing Software segments. Revenue of the Printhead Solutions segment recovered to levels in line with the third quarter of 2021 after having experienced a severe downturn in H1 due to the global shortage of electronic components. Group revenue for the quarter was up 12% year-over-year despite experiencing more challenging business conditions than a year ago.

"The third quarter results were favourably impacted by the sale of an unused asset (approximately 69,000 IPv4 internet addresses) for a net amount of EUR3.3 million which closed in July. Given the nature of the sale this income is reported as "Other Income" and is not included in our revenue figures, but it is accretive to EBITDA.

"Group EBITDA was significantly up in Q3 thanks to better operational performance across the board and the sale of the IPv4 internet addresses. EBITDA for the quarter was EUR4.58 million compared to EUR1.61 million for Q3 2021. Credit is due to the entire team for rising to the challenge of these difficult business conditions, and our smaller businesses which focus on colour management, 3-D visualisation, and legacy printing devices deserve special mention for outperforming their revenue and cost targets.

"Although business conditions remain challenging, with rising inflation and the war in Ukraine causing uncertainty for our customers, we have delivered profitable growth throughout the difficult climate of the pandemic, and we expect to continue this in the future".
