Petri Kairinen, CEO of Nixu:
In 2016, we achieved several significant milestones in our journey toward becoming the number one choice as a trusted cybersecurity partner for companies with head offices in Northern Europe. We reinforced our position in the Dutch market, established a prominent foothold in the Swedish market, and prepared to launch our operations in the United States. In 2016, the share of revenue from clients outside Finland of our total revenue increased from January's 6 % to December's 28 %. The most important step, however, was taken in the fall, when we started working on our new operating model and corporate culture. The basis for this new philosophy lies not in disparate local companies, but in our employees, who will work and collaborate across borders.
This operating model allows us to fulfill our second primary goal: Providing the best workplace for cybersecurity professionals. The more open, collaborative, and mobile a community we can create, the better our employees can participate in interesting client projects and learn from both their colleagues at Nixu and clients from different sectors. As part of our best workplace strategy, we launched another shares issue directed at our personnel and, as a result, more than 100 Nixuans decided to become employee-owners.
In 2016, the demand for cybersecurity monitoring services and data protection consulting increased, especially in Finland. Our allocations to developing the Nixu Cyber Defense Center service turned out to be correctly timed. Our clients have particularly appreciated the comprehensive coverage of the service, which includes everything from detection to data break-in investigation. The new EU General Data Protection Regulation, which was confirmed in spring 2016, has also stimulated client interest. We have rapidly expanded our data protection expertise by recruiting privacy and data protection lawyers, which is a first time for Nixu. This means that we can now provide a comprehensive compliance package for our clients, providing a one stop shop for both interpreting regulatory requirements and building compliance on the technological level.
Our revenue was increased by corporate acquisitions and increased demand in Finland. In the second half of 2016, the group grew by 25 % and, despite our slow first half, our annual growth reached 20 %. Our current strategy places a strong emphasis on promoting growth. Growth allocations affected our result for 2016 as planned, but will ensure strong organic growth in the coming year. The key factors weakening our result included rapid expansion of our operations in the Netherlands, slow business in the first quarter, and development allocations in technology-based services, such as building up our Nixu Cyber Defense Center business and reinforcing our group administration to support our ability to operate as an international company. The operational profitability of our services has remained solid.
In the last three years, Nixu has completed three acquisitions. Based on our experiences, our integration model is effective, demonstrated by the fact that we have managed to retain both the talent and the clients of the companies who have joined Nixu. Thanks to this success, we decided to extend the planned goodwill amortization period required by Finnish accounting standards (FAS). Starting from the 2016 accounting period, the amortization period will be extended from five years to ten. We have also identified further potential for supporting our growth through acquisitions.
In 2017, we will continue to implement our strategy. Society is becoming increasingly digital. Digital scams, blackmail attempts, industrial espionage, and cybernetic warfare will become increasingly common. We believe that in the current situation, critical operators in our society will appreciate having a highly proficient, technology-independent cybersecurity partner that can provide comprehensive support at a local level. I believe that Nixu has every ability to deliver its promise of being a solid partner to its clients, enabling a digital future free of disruptions caused by cyber threats.
Financial instructions for 2017
Nixu will strive to continue its growth more quickly than its market while maintaining profitability. Our medium-term goal is to achieve an annual revenue growth rate of above 15 percent and an EBITDA margin of above 10 percent.
In 2017 Nixu is aiming to grow clearly faster than last fiscal year supported by last year's acquisitions and strong organic growth. We will also continue to invest in growth initiatives in the current accounting period.
Strategy
As society as a whole is becoming more digital, it is inevitable that different operators have an increasing need to develop and offer different digital services to their stakeholders. Services are also becoming predominantly cloud-based, which means that traditional information security, which relies on antivirus software and firewalls, is no longer sufficient for controlling the ever-increasing cyber risks.
Nixu’s mission is to keep the digital society running. We pursue this mission by offering a wide range of cybersecurity services to key stakeholders in both the public and the private sectors. Nixu wants to be a true cybersecurity partner for its clients, providing comprehensive services that will allow them to implement new digital services safely, despite the cyber threats.
The main goal of Nixu’s growth strategy is to be the best workplace for information security professionals and the number one choice as a cybersecurity partner in Northern Europe.
Our growth strategy is defined by three strategic development areas:
1. Through internationalization, the company aims to expand its available market to include corporations that have their main office in Northern Europe. Nixu’s goal is to utilize local consultants and sales resources in each key metropolitan area near its clients, benefiting from the group’s entire range of services and production capabilities during customer assignments. Nixu will expand its market share in Northern Europe either through acquisitions (as in Sweden), by establishing new subsidiaries (as in the Netherlands), or by forming joint ventures with other industry operators. The key to success in all operations is creating a homogenous and congenial corporate culture across the entire group.
2. Nixu is strongly committed to developing scalable, technology-based continuous services (such as the Nixu Cyber Defense Center), which can be seamlessly integrated into the company's consultation business. These services ensure that Nixu has the resources and capabilities required for being a truly comprehensive cybersecurity partner for its clients. These services also secure lasting customer relationships and give Nixu a competitive edge over competitors acting purely in a consulting capacity. From a business standpoint, these services provide superior scaling of revenue and EBITDA versus the number of personnel. The technological component of the services is based on the best commercial solutions provided by our partners, as well as solutions developed internally for special needs.
3. Our third strategic development area consists of skills development, skills base expansion, and cybersecurity expert recruitment and cultivation. Nixu is increasingly engaged in various international research projects, such as the EU’s 5G Ensure, the results of which we can utilize directly in our own customer projects. To ensure its ability to grow, Nixu has started to promote its visibility as an employer among students. Our various trainee programs, in turn, ensure access to a sufficient, skilled workforce. By ensuring internal job rotation, Nixu is able to expand the skillset of its employees and provide new challenges to experienced cybersecurity experts who consider working at the company.
Revenue and profit development from January to December 2016
Nixu Group’s revenue was EUR 21,577.7 thousand. (2015: 18,012.7). Compared to the previous review period, the revenue increased by 19.8 %. The primary factors supporting revenue growth included organic growth in the Finnish market and the acquisition of Europoint Networking AB at the end of March 2016.
The company’s other operating income amounted to EUR 598.8 thousand (237.9). Other operating income increased by 152 % due to new research projects organized by the EU and Tekes, the Finnish Funding Agency for Innovation.
Nixu’s EBITDA for 2016 was EUR 772.7 thousand (2,071.2). Compared to the previous year, EBITDA decreased by 63 % due to strategic allocations in international growth and technology-based services development. These costs will not be capitalized. Moreover, slower than expected revenue intake between January and March affected profitability.
Nixu’s EBIT for the accounting period was EUR 115.5 thousand (1,193.7). EBIT was affected by the factors discussed above.
Loss for January–December 2016 was EUR 241.6 thousand (profit, 687.2). Profit before goodwill amortization was EUR 247.8 thousand (1,460.5).
As the goodwill amortization period was changed in the 2016 accounting period, the EBIT and the profit for the accounting period are incompatible with those of previous accounting periods. Based on successes in personnel and client retention after acquisition deals and positive growth in the company's business, the company decided to extend the planned goodwill amortization period from five to ten years. In 2016, goodwill amortization amounted to EUR 489.4 thousand (773.3). In the 2016 half-year financial report, goodwill amortization was reported under the previous amortization method.
The group’s effective tax rate has increased due to non-deductible goodwill amortization and loss-making operations in the Netherlands.
Financing and investments
On December 31, 2016, the Nixu Group's balance sheet totaled EUR 16,593.5 thousand (15,088.0).
On March 30, 2016, Nixu Oyj acquired Europoint Networking AB's entire stock capital and on October 28, 2016, Safeside Solutions AB's entire stock capital, increasing the balance sheet total value.
Furniture and repair investments made during the expansion and rationalizing of the company's Espoo office accounted for a substantial share of the increase in other long-term expenditure and tangible assets (EUR 219.5 thousand).
Non-current liabilities were reduced by loan amortization (EUR 716.4 thousand). The group net gearing was 0.3 % (-39.9 %) in the end of year 2016.
The company is looking into debt financing to support further acquisitions.
Personnel, leadership, and management
At the end of the accounting period, the number of personnel at the group was 222 (159), showing an increase of 63 employees. This increase is due to the acquisition of Europoint Networking AB and Safeside Solutions AB, as well as the new subsidiary founded in the Netherlands.
Nixu reshaped its organization to accommodate its new international structure. As part of this organizational change, Nixu formed a new Corporate Management Team, effective November 1, 2016. The Nixu Oyj Corporate Management Team includes Chief Executive Officer Petri Kairinen, Chief Financial Officer Janne Kärkkäinen, Chief Commercial Officer Valtteri Peltomäki, and Chief Development Officer Kim Westerlund. The company’s local management team in Finland will continue to run the Finnish operations.
At the end of August, Management Team Member and Chief Operational Officer Johan Boije af Gennäs ended his career with the company.
2016 Annual General Meeting
Nixu Oyj’s Annual General Meeting (AGM) was held on April 5, 2016. The AGM approved the company’s financial statements and discharged the members of the Board of Directors, CEO, and Deputy CEO of liability for the accounting period January 1–December 31, 2015.

The AGM approved the proposal by the Board of Directors that the company distributes a dividend of EUR 0.09 per share for the accounting period that ended on December 31, 2015, amounting to a total of EUR 550,083.15.

Shares and shareholders

Nixu has one share series. Each share entitles the holder to equal voting and dividend rights. On December 31, 2016, the total number of shares was 6,372,035 (December 31, 2015: 6,112,035). The company holds 7,200 of its own shares.
The company’s share is listed on the Nasdaq First North marketplace in Helsinki, Finland.
Shares issues during the accounting period:
Directed issue of 50,000 shares, launched to finance the acquisition cost of Europoint Networking AB,
Directed issue of 90,000 shares, launched to finance the acquisition cost of Safeside Solutions AB, and
Directed issue of 120,000 shares to employees and CEOs.
Dividend proposal
On December 31, 2016, the parent company’s assets subject to profit distribution amounted to EUR 9,330,473.05 of which the profit for the period amounts to EUR 723,882.21 The group’s profit before goodwill amortization was EUR 247,802.66. The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that no dividend be paid for 2016. The Board of Directors believes that instead of paying dividends, it is in the shareholders’ interest to exploit the growth potential in the company’s current markets.
Consequently, the dividend proposal deviates from the Nixu profit distribution policy: “Nixu strives to distribute 30–70 percent of its annual profit to shareholders”.
There have been no significant changes in Nixu’s financial status after the close of the accounting period.
Risks and uncertainties
The company’s biggest short-term risks are related to the uncertainty caused by the general economic situation, which may prompt key clients to postpone or cancel projects. In particular, protectionist policies adopted by the United States may influence the global economy and, more specifically, the revenue of Nixu’s operations in the United States.
As part of its growth strategy, the company has already started investing in international growth. If customer acquisition in new markets turns out to be more difficult than expected, the company’s entry into new markets may considerably compromise the company’s profitability. If the company does not manage to attract a sufficient customer base, some of its international operations may have to be discontinued.
As part of its growth strategy, the company has started investing heavily in its continuous scalable services business. The business models, methods, and the promised service levels in the services business are different from those in the consultation business. Implementing these changes can be challenging, potentially causing substantial direct and indirect adverse consequences for Nixu.
Moreover, the company’s growth expectations are heavily based on skilled personnel. If the company is unable to recruit the planned number of information security experts and keep them on its payroll, the development of the company’s revenue may suffer.
Increased economic growth as well as the rapidly increasing demand in the cybersecurity market may result in wage inflation, which, in turn, can have a material impact on the costs incurred by service companies.
Nixu’s business requires great trust from its clients. Information security attacks on our clients’ systems and potential problems in Nixu’s services may result in substantial direct and indirect adverse consequences for Nixu.
Unexpected delays and extra work are typical for big solution delivery projects, adding uncertainty which may incur costs that the company must bear in part or in full. Moreover, Nixu may not always be able to allocate personnel resources, schedule tasks for long-term projects, or plan its operations according to its predictions.
Even though Nixu’s strategy relies mainly on organic growth, the company is also constantly searching for growth opportunities from acquisitions. However, there might not be companies available which would support Nixu's strategy or otherwise be compatible with its operations. Moreover, there is no guarantee that Nixu would manage to successfully integrate any company it acquires into its business or achieve the strategic goals or synergy benefits expected from the acquisition. Consequently, there is no guarantee that acquisitions would generate the expected revenue or profit. Acquisitions may also present unexpected risks and latent responsibilities for which the company has been unable to prepare. Exploring acquisition opportunities and going through with the actual deals can tie up substantial management resources, which can have an adverse effect on the company’s core business.
If the future returns from consolidated goodwill do not match current expectations, it may be possible that the consolidated goodwill amortization period must be changed or an impairment charge might be required.
Company funding involves common covenants, which, if breached, may have an adverse effect on its financial position.
Events after the accounting period
There have been no material events concerning the company since the end of the accounting period.
