Technicolor SA announced financial and production results for its fourth quarter and full year 2012.
According to the statement, Technicolor’s revenues were €1.005 billion (US $1.324 billion) in the quarter, down 4.7% at current currency compared to Q4 2011.
On the optical disc replication front, Technicolor reported that “combined Standard Definition DVD and Blu-ray volumes decreased by 8% compared to the fourth quarter of 2011. This decline was driven by a decrease in Standard DVD volumes, attributable to an overall weaker title release slate year-on-year, as well as a challenging comparison base in Europe, which benefited from the release of multi-disc and special edition collector’s box-sets for the Harry Potter franchise in the fourth quarter of 2011.”
Additionally, “these factors were partially offset by strengthening growth in Blu-ray, with volumes up 27% in the fourth quarter of 2012 following a 25% increase in the third quarter of 2012, as well as stronger Games shipments, driven by several major title releases for Microsoft’s Xbox video game console. Major titles produced in the fourth quarter of 2012 included Brave (Walt Disney), The Dark Knight Rises (Warner Bros.), Ted (Universal) and Paranormal Activity 4 (Paramount).”
In terms of raw numbers, the company manufactured roughly 365 million DVDs in the fourth quarter of 2012 (down 14% from the same period in 2011) as well as 72 million Blu-ray discs (up 27% over Q4 2011).

NERA performed the valuation using the DCF approach as the principal method, backed-up by a Market Multiple approach and achieved an average value of Thomson Licensing SAS of EUR2.2 billion. * Consequently, the statutory equity of Technicolor SA amounted to EUR2.0 billion at the end of 2012. This intra-group transaction had no impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements. Frederic Rose, Chief Executive Officer of Technicolor, stated: "Our 2012 results demonstrate that Technicolor is fully on track to achieve its Amplify 2015 strategic roadmap and capture new opportunities to deliver an enhanced media experience to consumers and prosumers. With higher sales, improved profitability, free cash-flow above our targets and a strengthened balance sheet, 2012 was a year of significant financial and strategic achievements for Technicolor. Our strong operational performance demonstrates the robustness of our business model and our capacity to innovate". An analyst conference call hosted by Frederic Rose, CEO, and Stéphane Rougeot, CFO and SEVP Strategy, will be held on Friday, February 22, 2013 at 3:00 pm CET.

Corporate costs increased year-on-year, as the reduction in costs of transversal functions was offset by higher incentive program costs related to the strong financial improvement recorded year-on-year, increased costs for growth initiatives and a negative comparison base versus. 2011 that included several positive non-recurring impacts.

Sustained Operating Cash Flow from continuing operations in H2 2012 · Operating cash flow from continuing operations amounted to EUR211 million in the second half of 2012, an increase of EUR12 million compared with the second half of 2011, and represented 10.9% of revenues, a year-on-year increase of 0.4 point. In the second half of 2012, cash outflow for net capital expenditures amounted to EUR73 million, a EUR8.5 million year-on-year decrease resulting mostly from a decrease in capital expenditure in Creative Services, reflecting the completion of sizeable investments. Cash outflow related to restructuring amounted to EUR31 million, or 1.6% of revenues, broadly stable compared to the second half of 2011. Group Free Cash Flow above EUR100 million in H2 2012 · Group Free Cash Flow amounted to EUR104 million in H2 2012, compared to EUR49 million in H2 2011. · Main impacts on Group Free Cash Flow are as follows: * Cash financial charges amounted to EUR56 million in H2 2012; * Other cash charges, mainly related to tax, pensions and non-current items amounted to EUR49 million in H2 2012; * Free Cash Flow from continuing operations amounted to EUR106 million, while Free Cash Flow from discontinued operations resulted in a cash charge of EUR2 million.

This improvement reflected prepayments of EUR162 million related to the capital increases and Broadcast disposal, scheduled senior debt repayments of EUR58 million, other net debt repayments of EUR8 million, excess free cash flow of EUR25 million in 2011 and a foreign exchange impact of EUR11 million. · The Group's cash position also improved and amounted to EUR397 million at end December 2012 compared to EUR370 million at end December 2011 reflecting strong free cash flow generation of EUR106 million in 2012, positive contribution of the capital increases of EUR179 million, debt reimbursement for EUR(253) million (nominal basis) and others for EUR(5) million. · Net debt at nominal value (non IFRS) amounted to EUR839 million at end December 2012 compared to EUR1,130 million at end December 2011, a decrease of EUR291 million. · Net debt as per consolidated financial statements (IFRS) amounted to EUR718 million at end December 2012 compared to EUR957 million at end December 2011, a decrease of EUR239 million. · Technicolor has received a firm offer for a new EUR50 million receivables backed credit facility replacing the existing EUR100m facility which expires in April 2013.

For the full year 2012, Technology revenues totaled EUR515 million, up 12.9% at current currency and up 13.5% at constant currency compared to the full year 2011, with Licensing revenues recording an all-time high. As a result, adjusted EBITDA margin for the Technology segment rose by 1.9 points year-on-year to 77.8% of revenues. Q4 2012 Revenue Highlights In the fourth quarter of 2012, Technology revenues amounted to EUR150 million, up 15.7% at current currency and up 20.0% at constant currency compared to the fourth quarter of 2011. Licensing In the fourth quarter of 2012, Licensing revenues recorded year-on-year growth of 20.9% at constant currency, as a result of the strong performance of the Group's non MPEG LA patent Licensing programs. In line with the trends of the third quarter of 2012, the patent licensing programs experienced strong growth, notably across the Digital TV programs, benefiting from additional new contracts and contract renewals, along with good volume performances by some of the Group's licensees in the fourth quarter of 2012. Research and Innovation ("R&I") activities in 2012 In 2012, the Research and Innovation ("R&I") division sustained the pace of high quality Intellectual Property production and its contributions in key standardization bodies. Over 2012, R&I significantly increased its contribution to standards, representing Technicolor in more than 10 Standardization bodies, including MPEG, ATSC, DVB, SMPTE, DVB & VQEG. R&I focused on areas where Technicolor has strong differentiation, specifically in High Efficiency Video Coding ("HEVC") and MPEG/ITU, in coding sound and image. HEVC is the next generation video compression standard jointly developed between MPEG and ITU-T VCEG. Technicolor has participated from the outset, chairing or co-chairing core experiments during development of the standard and contributing innovative technologies. Technicolor was instrumental in the creation of the Main10 profile for improved video quality, likely to play a key role in Ultra-High Definition (UHD). A further extension of the standard, Scalable HEVC (SHVC) is at the centre of new activity in R&I, underlining the commitment of Technicolor to the evolution of industry standards. Similarly, R&I has developed ground-breaking technology to underpin its active participation in the MPEG Call for Proposal on 3D Audio Coding. This standard is envisaged to deliver a highly immersive audio experience to home theaters and personal devices, bringing incomparable quality to the combined Home and Consumer Electronic markets. Technicolor also significantly increased its investment in ATSC 3.0 (Advanced Television Systems Committee). This project capitalizes on Technicolor's existing and developing technologies, in which Technicolor is one of the historical participants. Specifically, Technicolor's interests are focused on the physical, transport and application layers, including audio/video coding. In 2012, Technicolor filed 444 priority applications with respect to new inventions. The maintained pace of filings underpins the commitment to focus on high quality patents in targeted technology areas (such as Video and Audio Compression, Image enhancement, Networking, Content security & Privacy), creating long term monetization opportunities for Patent Licensing and Technology Licensing. Technicolor was also granted 2,300 patents in 2012 compared to 2,000 granted patents on average per year over the 2004-2011 period. At the end of 2012, over 66% of Technicolor's patent portfolio has a lifetime of 10 years or more. R&I significantly raised its scientific excellence and reputation in 2012. Scientific excellence is measured through publications (that in turn lead to strong Intellectual Property differentiation) and collaboration with the best academic research institutions worldwide. R&I published in 2012 more than 40 articles in top tier scientific events (per the international research community ranking). Collaborations have been established with four among the top six universities (per the Shanghai ranking): Berkeley, Stanford, MIT, and Cambridge. In France, the IP agreement with INRIA, a public research institute, has been renewed. Entertainment Services Entertainment Services include Creative Services, DVD Services and IZ-ON Media (formerly PRN). Technicolor has been developing new technology solutions to support the transition of its customers to digital and is managing its digital creative services business to capture growth opportunities, while limiting exposure to fast declining legacy activities. Therefore, Technicolor is now presenting the performances of its Creative Services business in two categories: Digital Creative Services (Digital Production, Digital Postproduction and Distribution, Digital Cinema) and legacy activities (Photochemical film, Compression & Authoring, Tape duplication).

Excluding legacy activities, revenues were down 2.4% at current currency and down 7.9% at constant currency reflecting some softness in Digital Production and Digital Cinema and a revenue decrease in DVD Services largely driven by the decline in Standard Definition volumes. In the second half of 2012, combined Standard Definition DVD and Blu-ray™ volumes decreased by 5%, with Blu-ray™ growth of 26% and Games growth of 8%. Adjusted EBITDA amounted to EUR132 million or 13.6% of revenues, down 2.0 points, due to the revenue decline. In the full year of 2012, Entertainment Services experienced a decrease in revenues largely due to legacy activities, which represented in 2012 only 5% of the Group's total revenues compared to 8% in full year 2011. Excluding legacy activities, revenues were flat at current currency and down 5.8% at constant currency. Adjusted EBITDA amounted to EUR199 million in full year 2012 or a margin of 11.5%, down 1.0 point compared to full year 2011. Performances by division are as follows: * Creative Services experienced a year-on-year decrease in revenues, with continued weakness in legacy activities partly offset by slight growth in Digital Creative Services revenues, despite some softness in the second half of the year. The activity of Visual Effects ("VFX") for feature film recorded a weak performance due to the delay in some sizeable projects, leading to a particularly low level of VFX activity for feature films in the London facilities. The Group implemented cost reduction measures in its Creative Services division in the second half of 2012 to mitigate the impact of lower sales on its profitability. Profitability has been progressively restored and in the fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA margin recorded a decrease of only 0.5 point compared to the fourth quarter of 2011 despite the softness experienced in the quarter. * In DVD Services, a total of 1.45 billion units were replicated in 2012, a 6% decrease compared to the full year 2011, which benefited from several successful Harry Potter-related releases. Blu-ray™ shipments accelerated throughout the year and Standard Definition DVD volumes were resilient in the North American market - despite continued pressure in the TV-DVD category. For the full year 2012, adjusted EBITDA margin for DVD Services remained stable, despite an 8% year-on-year contraction in revenues and a slight margin decline in the second half of 2012. This performance was driven by multiple factors, including an improved products mix, the positive impact of ongoing cost savings initiatives and efficiency improvement programs, and reduction of offload, which offset specific customer price reductions. The DVD Services division posted solid free cash flow generation in the second half of 2012, largely due to continuing focus on cost savings and tight management of working capital requirements. * In 2012, IZ-ON Media experienced a decline in revenues resulting from a weak US advertising market during the course of the year which has impacted its contribution to the adjusted EBITDA margin. Creative Services - Q4 2012 Revenue Highlights In the fourth quarter of 2012, Creative Services recorded a year-on-year decline in revenues, due to the sharp drop of legacy activities and continued weakness in VFX for feature films. The Group continued to take actions to adjust its cost base to lower revenues and changing activity mix. Digital Creative Services * Digital Production activities recorded a year-on-year decrease in revenues in the fourth quarter of 2012, reflecting softness in Visual Effects ("VFX") for feature films, offset in part by stable revenues in VFX for commercials. The softness in feature film VFX activities was due to delays in some sizeable projects that impacted the London facility, while customer workload was ramping up at the Vancouver facility. Commercial VFX activities recorded stable revenues following three quarters of strong performance, especially at Los Angeles and New York facilities. In the fourth quarter of 2012, VFX teams completed work on Man of Steel (Warner), while continuing work on Maleficent (Disney), The Seventh Son (Warner), The Lone Ranger (Disney) and 47 Ronin (Universal). They also started work on Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters (Fox). VFX teams won the BAFTA award for Life of Pi (Fox), and have been nominated for Oscars for their work on Prometheus (Fox) and Life of Pi. This was another demonstration of Technicolor's excellence in servicing its studio customers. * Digital Postproduction and Distribution Services activities experienced mixed trends in the fourth quarter of 2012, following several straight quarters of sustained revenue growth. Sound activities continued to expand at a fast pace, thanks to the ramp-up of the Group's new facilities, notably in Hollywood, whereas Video activities suffered from market softness. During the quarter Hollywood Postproduction teams maintained their leading position in Broadcast TV series, and gained market share with tent-pole movies. Technicolor's excellence in servicing was also demonstrated as the Group served 19 projects that have received Oscar nominations, including 6 of the 9 films nominated for the Best Picture Oscar and award nominations for its sound mixing team on Skyfall (Sony). Digital Distribution Services activities delivered another quarter of strong year-on-year revenue growth in the fourth quarter of 2012, benefiting from continued work on the catalogs of titles of major Over-the-Top and Video-on-Demand players, as well as initial work on new delivery formats for in-flight entertainment. * Digital Cinema activities reported a slight year-on-year revenue decline in the fourth quarter of 2012, with a significant rebound in volume offset by specific customer price reductions given early in the year. At the end of December 2012, digital screen penetration was 84% in North America and 70% in Europe. Legacy activities As expected, legacy activities continued to decline sharply in the fourth quarter of 2012, in particular photochemical film activities with photochemical film footage down 59% and revenues down 40% year-on-year. Technicolor continued in the quarter to reduce its exposure to such activities, which represented 4.3% of Group revenues. DVD Services - Q4 2012 Revenue Highlights In the fourth quarter of 2012, combined Standard Definition DVD and Blu-ray™ volumes decreased by 8% compared to the fourth quarter of 2011. This decline was driven by a decrease in Standard DVD volumes, attributable to an overall weaker title release slate year-on-year, as well as a challenging comparison base in Europe, which benefited from the release of multi-disc and special edition collector's box-sets for the Harry Potter franchise in the fourth quarter of 2011. These factors were partially offset by strengthening growth in Blu-ray™, with volumes up 27% in the fourth quarter of 2012 following a 25% increase in the third quarter of 2012, as well as stronger Games shipments, driven by several major title releases for Microsoft's Xbox video game console. Major titles produced in the fourth quarter of 2012 included Brave (Walt Disney), The Dark Knight Rises (Warner Bros.), Ted (Universal) and Paranormal Activity 4 (Paramount).

This performance was primarily driven by sustained customer demand across Latin America, strong growth in the Asia-Pacific region, as well as increasing mix of higher-end Cable devices in North America. Connected Home adjusted EBITDA amounted to EUR12 million in the second half of 2012 compared to EUR(17) million in the second half of 2011 and EUR(12) million in the first half of 2012, due to very strong revenue growth and the benefit of cost savings initiatives. Gross margin improved by 3.5 points at 14.5% in the second half of 2012, driven by Connected Home's new customer wins for solutions and services across all regions over the period and cost savings initiatives completed in the second half of 2012. Cost savings achieved in full year 2012 amounted to EUR27 million, a gap of EUR5 million compared to the target announced in December 2011 and mainly due to some delay in the restructuring in Europe. For the full year 2012, Connected Home revenues were EUR1,244 million, up 25.7% at current currency and up 22.0% at constant currency compared to the full year 2011, driven by record product volumes of more than 30 million units (+27%), an all-time high. Connected Home adjusted EBITDA amounted to EUR1 million in the full year 2012 compared to EUR(43) million in the full year 2011, reflecting the positive outcome of the turnaround plan launched by the Group in December 2011. This performance was in line with the Group's objective to achieve adjusted EBITDA breakeven for the Connected Home segment in 2012. Gross margin also improved by 2.6 points year-on-year to 13.0%. Free cash flow was impacted by restructuring expenses associated with cost reduction actions initiated as part of the turnaround plan of the Connected Home segment and by operating working capital needs associated with the significant growth of the business in 2012. Connected Home - Q4 2012 Revenue Highlights In the fourth quarter of 2012, Connected Home revenues amounted to EUR326 million, up 15.1% at current currency and up 14.2% at constant currency compared to the fourth quarter of 2011, confirming the solid trend experienced in the second and third quarters of 2012 (revenues up in double-digits). This performance principally reflected strong customer demand across emerging markets, particularly in Latin America and Asia-Pacific, as well as improved overall product mix in North America, driven by Cable customers. * In North America, Connected Home product volumes recorded a year-on-year decline in the fourth quarter of 2012, reflecting softer shipments in Satellite set top boxes and digital-to-analog Cable adaptors. Overall product mix however significantly improved year-on-year, driven by growing contribution from new products introduced in the third quarter of 2012 and higher-end devices in Cable, partly offset by weaker deliveries of HD PVRs in Satellite compared to the prior-year quarter. * In Latin America, global demand was strong in the fourth quarter of 2012, as reflected by double-digit year-on-year growth in Connected Home product volumes, driven by stronger shipments of Satellite set top boxes, particularly in Brazil, as well as increased deliveries of broadband gateways to Telecom customers, especially in Mexico. However overall product mix was less favorable year-on-year, principally as a result of a decreased proportion of HD devices in total volumes compared to the prior-year quarter. * In Europe, Middle-East and Africa, Connected Home products posted a slight year-on-year volume decline in the fourth quarter of 2012, as strong growth in shipments of Telecom broadband gateways and Cable modems largely offset softer set top box deliveries, due primarily to the phase-out of some Satellite and Telecom devices. Overall product mix was slightly lower year-on-year, driven principally by a reduced contribution of HD set top boxes in total shipments compared to the prior-year quarter. * In Asia-Pacific, customer demand remained at a high level across the region in the fourth quarter of 2012, as reflected by more than a three-fold increase in Connected Home product volumes year-on-year, primarily as a result of a sharp growth in set top box shipments to Satellite customers, especially in India and Malaysia and new high-end solutions delivered to Telecom customers, in particular in Australia.
