MRR (Monthly Recurring Revenues) trending ahead of target

The objective published at the beginning of the year to grow MRR from €1.5 million in January 2021 to €3 million in 2024, translates into an incremental €100k per quarter. At the end of October 2021, Monthly Recurring Revenues stood at €1.9 million, implying the group has already achieved the annual target.

 

Strong operational momentum

With the acquisition of Anevia, ATEME has enhanced its value proposition for media companies and service providers, offering a wide range of software solutions for OTT delivery.

The integration of Anevia is 99% complete with synergies set to materialize in 2022 both in terms of savings and cross-selling. Several major deals are under discussion with legacy ATEME customers to deploy Anevia's NEA solutions.

ATEME's innovation leadership is evidenced by the 50% headcount dedicated to R&D, its strong contribution to industry standardization initiatives and the multiple awards this year. ATEME solutions are reinventing video delivery, notably with cloud native software technologies leveraging the flexibility of hybrid cloud or multi cloud implementation, and multiple solutions generating incremental revenue streams for our customers based on ad insertion, personalized TV and Open Caching compliant CDN (Content Delivery Network).

 

Disposal of non-core business

ATEME has announced the disposal of Anevia's Enterprise and Hospitality business solutions to focus on its core business. As a reminder this activity generated 3,5 million euros in 2019 before it was impacted by the Covid crisis.

 

Full Year Revenues objectives confirmed

Based on our strong Third Quarter including the attainment of our annual MRR target, we reiterate our Full Year and longer term objectives. Nevertheless we remain vigilant concerning global supply chain issues of semiconductors and servers, with potentially an attendant impact on revenues.

 

ATEME Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Michel Artières, said: "As expected, ATEME delivered a strong Third Quarter and we have already met our annual MRR growth target. What comes next is even more exciting. We are sowing the seeds of a tremendous success story in the coming years with our strong focus on R&D investment, MRR creation and Anevia synergies starting to feed through.”
