Commenting on the results, Dr Zvi Marom, Chief Executive Officer
of BATM, said: "We are pleased with the commercial advancements
made by most of our businesses in winning new customers, laying
foundations for a sustainable recovery and growth. In particular,
the Diagnostics unit saw a solid year-on-year increase in revenues
as the unit increased the number of machines sold to over 500.
Additionally, there is a significant inherent value in the Group
with Adaltis valued at $58m post investment by our Chinese partner
and a strong IP portfolio with over 40 patents across BATM.
"Looking ahead, the Group remains optimistic in its outlook due
to the visibility of revenues from contracts already signed as well
as growth in the Bio-Medical division. The Diagnostics business is
expected to continue to grow as it is well positioned to capture
market share in the Chinese diagnostics market. The investments
made in the Pathogenic Waste Treatment and Sterilisation unit in
2016 are expected to show positive results in 2017. The Cyber unit
is also expected to grow through the addition of new customers as
well as delivery on the contract delayed from last year.
Consequently, the Board looks to the future with increased
confidence."

Operational Review
In 2016 both divisions made significant operational progress as
new products and technologies continued to replace legacy products.
The Group was successful in advancing its sales and marketing
strategies, with its business units in both divisions achieving
milestones in targeting new areas that the Group had identified as
growth markets.
Total Group revenues in 2016 were $90.4m (2015: $97.1m), of
which the Bio-Medical division accounted for 57% with the
contribution from the Networking and Cyber division being 43%.

Distribution
Sales were flat year-on-year and contributed approximately 68%
of the Bio-Medical division revenues. There was an increase in
Romania in the volume of Abbott products being distributed and the
relationship was expanded with the Group starting to provide
maintenance to some Abbott products as well as those of other
customers. Abbott is one of the top three vendors in this field in
this territory and the distribution of its products carries a
higher margin. As a result, the gross margin in 2016 improved to
24% compared with 22% in 2015.
In the first half of the year, the Group acquired the entire
issued and to be issued share capital of Green Lab Hungary
Engineering Ltd ("Green Lab"), a Hungary-based developer and
distributor of analytical instruments for environmental and
industrial sectors, for a total consideration of $3.8m payable in
cash over a three-year period. The Group expects the Distribution
unit to benefit from the synergies with the Green Lab operations in
Hungary and from Green Lab's extensive network. Since acquisition,
the integration has progressed well, with Green Lab continuing to
achieve a good level of sales and profitability.
Facilitated by the Green Lab acquisition, the Group opened two
new diagnostics laboratories in Romania during the year: an
analytics lab in Timisoara and a genetic lab in Bucharest. The
Group will use these labs to provide customers' products and
diagnostic tests to end customers, thereby establishing a footprint
in the end-customer market.
Post period and as announced on 6 February 2017, BATM entered
into an agreement to purchase the entire issued share capital of
Zer Laboratories, which is the largest private diagnostic
laboratory in Israel for clinical tests, mainly providing prenatal
screening tests for Down's Syndrome, genetic tests and additional
tests performed during IVF and fertility treatments, for a
consideration of NIS 2.75m (c. GBP580,000) payable in cash (the
"Acquisition"). BATM expects the Acquisition to enable it to
capture the growth market in non-invasive prenatal tests (NIPT) in
Israel and Europe, enhancing the activities of the Group's genetic
lab in Bucharest.
Pathogenic Waste Treatment and Sterilisation
The Pathogenic Waste Treatment and Sterilisation unit accounted
for 11% of the Bio-Medical division's revenues in 2016 compared
with 16% of revenues in 2015, reflecting a reduction in sales. This
decrease is primarily due to the implementation of the strategic
decision to transition from sales of control systems and products
for treating medical waste to new, larger solutions developed for
the biopharma and agri-business sectors. The unit continues to
focus on the treatment of biological waste, based on its unique
patented Integrated Shredder and Steriliser ("ISS") technology,
which it is leveraging to apply to industries where the solutions
have a higher value and greater market potential.
During the year, the Group successfully delivered on its
contract with CEVA, one of the world's largest manufacturers of
vaccines for animal health, to provide its biological waste
solution developed for the biopharmaceutical industry, which was
the Group's first significant contract for this new solution. An
order for a second unit was received from CEVA in Q4 2016.
The Group also made progress during the year in the
agri-business sector. It delivered on its first significant
contract for its new agri-waste treatment solution, which was for a
poultry farming company, as well as providing an initial unit at a
bovine slaughterhouse facility for the largest and leading food
group in Israel. Following the successful installation and
operation of this initial unit, the customer ordered a second,
larger unit for the same facility. The project is progressing well
and installation is due to commence in H2 2017.
This unit also benefits from synergies with Green Lab, which has
already provided access to a larger number of markets for the
ecologic solutions of the Pathogenic Waste Treatment and
Sterilisation business.
As announced yesterday, the Group has launched the world's first
mobile agri-waste treatment solution and has been awarded a
contract of $2.5m for the delivery of a mobile unit. The solution
will be deployed by the customer for the safe disposal of mass
poultry affected by disease and illness. The Group has received an
advance payment from the customer of $1m with delivery of the
product expected to commence in H2 2017 and due to complete in Q1
2018.
Diagnostics
The Diagnostics unit represented 20% of Bio-Medical division
revenues in 2016 compared with 17% during 2015 reflecting an
increase in revenues of 16%. This was primarily due to the
increased sales of machines as well as production and sales of
reagents. The five largest geographical markets for the Diagnostics
unit are China, UAE, Italy, Germany and Spain.
During the year the Group sold 505 instruments to multiple new
and existing customers compared with 462 in 2015. In addition,
production of reagents increased 14% in 2016 over the prior
year.
Progress was made by the Group's joint venture company, Ador,
established in December 2015 with Gamida for Life ("Gamida"), an
international group of companies focused on healthcare and life
sciences, in preparing for the production and marketing of a
unique, rapid-results molecular diagnostics system, and a selection
of reagent kits. The new instrument and reagents are expected to
reach the market during H2 2017.
A significant milestone was achieved when the Group's
diagnostics subsidiary, Adaltis, entered into an investment
agreement and a strategic joint venture with its Chinese partner,
Egens, a leading biotechnology company combining biological
material development and diagnostic reagent manufacturing. Under
the terms of the agreement, Egens purchased RMB20m (c. $2.9m) of
new shares in Adaltis, equivalent to 4.93% of Adaltis' enlarged
share capital, valuing Adaltis at approximately $58m.
In addition, BATM intends to use Zer Laboratories for launching
new, advanced diagnostic DNA-based tests in Israel, and as a local
reference lab, together with several reputable European- and
US-based labs, for new molecular biology solutions from
Adaltis.
Networking and Cyber Division
H1 2016 H2 2016 FY 2016 FY 2015
-------------------- -------- -------- -------- --------
Revenues $19.1m $19.4m $38.5m $44.1m
-------------------- -------- -------- -------- --------
Gross margin 42% 39% 40% 40%
-------------------- -------- -------- -------- --------
Adjusted operating
profit (loss) $0.0m $(2.2m) $(2.2m) $0.1m
-------------------- -------- -------- -------- --------
In 2016, there was a $5.6m decrease in revenues to $38.5m as the
division continued to wind down the legacy products business. Gross
profit margin was maintained at 40% and adjusted operating loss for
2016 was $2.2m (2015: $0.1m profit).
The Group's wholly-owned Telco Systems subsidiary gained over 58
new customers in the period compared with 22 new customers in 2015.
This included the successful deployment of a new high capacity
Carrier Ethernet network for the Kenya Education Network and the
award of a multi-year contract to provide a managed MPLS solution
by a major provider of high-speed network and ICT services to
education and research facilities in Australia.
Telco Systems continued to invest in its leading-edge technology
and solutions and added 100GE capabilities to its new aggregation
and ATCA solutions to meet the ever-increasing demand for
bandwidth. During the period, it completed a project extension to a
Tier 1 network service provider in Southeast Asia with the
deployment of a 10GE solution to expand the customer's broadband
capacity in compliance with latest industry standards. In addition,
its CloudMetro (SDN & D-NFV) platform is gaining momentum with
Communication Service Providers (CSPs) and dozens of POC trials
were conducted successfully, including with Tier 1 operators.
The Cyber unit was awarded a significant contract as the leading
supplier for the delivery of an Information Communication
Technology solution combined with several cyber elements to a
government defence department, which is the second such contract
awarded to BATM by a national government. The delivery of the
contract was scheduled to commence in 2016, however, due to a
counterparty being late in integrating their services, the delivery
and completion of the project has been deferred to 2017. The
Group's customer has amended this contract with the total value
increasing to $5.2m from $4.5m, over a period of up to three years.
The Cyber unit also conducted several POC trials with Tier 1
companies and government agencies.
Financial Review
Revenues in 2016 decreased to $90.4m (2015: $97.1m), mainly due
to a reduction in sales in the Networking and Cyber division.
The blended gross profit margin for the year was 31.4% (2015:
31.8%). This decrease is mostly due to a decrease in the gross
margin of the Pathogenic Waste Treatment and Sterilisation unit as
a result of the transition of that business as described above.
Sales and marketing expenses were $14.3m (2015: $14.4m),
representing 16% of revenues compared with 15% in 2015.
General and administrative expenses were $9.6m (2015: $9.6m),
representing 11% of revenues compared with 10% in 2015.
R&D investment in 2016 increased to $7.6m (2015: $6.7m).
This increase of $0.9m was primarily due to investment in the Cyber
unit.
Adjusted operating profit amounted to $0.9m (2015: $0.7m
profit).
The Group's balance sheet remains strong with effective
liquidity of $27.6m at 31 December 2016 compared with $18.6m at 30
June 2016 and $23.8m at 31 December 2015. Period-end cash is
comprised as follows: cash and deposits up to three months duration
of $22.0m and short-term cash deposits up to one year and held for
trading bonds of $5.6m. The increase in cash balances is a result
of the proceeds received from the disposal of one of the Group's
properties and an improvement in working capital.
Inventory was $20.5m (30 June 2016: $20.9m; 31 December 2015:
$22.6m). The decrease is due to a lower level of inventory in
Romania and in the Networking and Cyber division. Trade and other
receivables stood at $28.1m (30 June 2016: $28.1m; 31 December
2015: $31.2m), with the decline compared with the prior year being
mostly due to a decrease in trade receivables in the Networking and
Cyber division.
Intangible assets and goodwill was $20.6m (30 June 2016: $20.2m;
31 December 2015 $15.6m). This increase compared with the prior
year was mostly due to the investment in Green Lab.
Property, plant and equipment and investment property decreased
to $17.7m (30 June 2016: $23.2m; 31 December 2015: $21.9m). The
decrease is due to the disposal of one of the Group's properties
and depreciation of property, plant and equipment.
The balance of trade and other payables was $26.9m (30 June
2016: $22.6m; 31 December 2015: $27.4m).
Cash inflow from operating activities was $0.9m for 2016,
compared with an outflow of $2.2m for the prior year, due to an
improvement in working capital and decrease in tax payments.
Outlook
The underlying businesses within BATM are robust with
significant commercial development in most units, laying the
foundations for a sustainable recovery and growth. Additionally,
there is a significant inherent value in the Group with Adaltis
valued at $58m post investment by its Chinese partner and a strong
IP portfolio with 40 patents across BATM.
Looking ahead, the Group remains optimistic in its outlook due
to the visibility of revenues from contracts already signed as well
as growth in the Bio-Medical division. The Diagnostics business is
expected to continue to grow as it is well positioned to capture
market share in the Chinese diagnostics market. Additionally, the
investments made in the Pathogenic Waste Treatment and
Sterilisation unit in 2016 are expected to show positive results
this year. The Cyber unit is also expected to grow through the
addition of new customers as well as delivery on the contract
delayed from last year. Consequently, the Board looks to the future
with increased confidence.
