(In accordance with IFRS 5, items related to the 2021 financial year were restated to present comparative information for discontinued operations related to the Group's US operations.)

The avionics segment, the Group's largest business, represented 68% of the total revenue from continuing operations in the fourth quarter of 2022. Avionics and medical businesses showed respective growth of +14% and +34% compared to the fourth quarter of 2021.

The Group's gross margin rate stood at 41% of consolidated sales compared to 39% for the fourth quarter of 2021.

The amount of operating expenses at 0.9 million euros for the fourth quarter of 2022 remained in line with the previous quarters.

The Group therefore reported consolidated operating profit from continuing operations at 0.2 million euros the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to a consolidated operating profit at 0.1 million euros for the fourth quarter of 2021. After taking into account the consolidated financial income and the deferred tax expense, the Group posted quarterly net profit from continuing operations at 0.1 million euros for the fourth quarter of 2022, similar amount to the fourth quarter of 2021.

Including the capital gain related to the sale of the foundry business assets (Custom products) of the Group's US subsidiary (FABLITE program), the consolidated quarterly net profit stood at 1.7 million euros compared with break-even net earnings for the fourth quarter of 2021.

EBITDA from continuing operations amounted to +0.4 million euros for the fourth quarter of 2022, thus +1.4 million euros for the financial year 2022. On December 31, 2022, the Group reported available cash at 5.5 million euros including cash investments (Corporate bonds / investment securities) recorded under non-current financial assets for an amount of 1.3 million euros.

Finalisation of the FABLITE program

As previously announced, MEMSCAP completed in December 2022 the sale of its assets related to the foundry business (Custom products). These assets, previously held by the Group's US subsidiary, includes the US production plant, teams, equipment, technologies and related customers.

As a part of this deal, MEMSCAP entered in a strategic supply agreement for variable optical attenuators (VOA) with the acquirer of the foundry business and finalised the implementation of its VOA fabless organisation.

Following this new industrial organisation, MEMSCAP retains the design and the distribution of the VOA and fully outsources the manufacturing of these products dedicated to the optical communications market.

Analysis and perspectives

The 2022 financial year appears to be a major step in the history of MEMSCAP. The completion of the FABLITE strategic program within planned deadline, deeply transforms the Group's profitability profile.

MEMSCAP is now primarily positioned in the avionics and medical businesses. In parallel, the Group should significantly increase its profitability in the optical communications business thanks to the new fabless organization.

Over the coming financial year, MEMSCAP should benefit from its investments in R&D, the intensification of its marketing activity and the momentum of its high value-added markets and thus, anticipates a growth of its operations.
