Philippe Vannier, Bull Chairman and CEO, commented: “During the first six months of the year, the Group significantly improved its profitability and accelerated its positioning in the key growth segments in our sector. Most notably, Bull has been chosen by the French National Fund for a Digital Society (FSN) (managed by the Caisse des Dépôts) for two future investments: the first in partnership with SFR, to create a Europe-wide computing power plant and the second, NumInnov, to extend access to High-Performance Computing to SMEs. In an extremely uncertain economic climate, we are especially mindful of the need to manage our profitability and preserve our cash, so as to guarantee that we will be able to continue investing in the future.”

Highlights of the first six months of 2012:

    • Bull was chosen by FSN (the French National Fund for a Digital Society) – along with SFR and the Caisse des Dépôts ­– to establish a secure, high-availability data center. The project will represent an investment of some €225 million and Bull will have a 20% stake
    • Also as part of the French State program of future investments, Bull has been chosen to create a High-Performance Computing (HPC) Cloud, which will enable this technology to be made more widely available to SMEs. The investment to be made over the next few years is in the order of €28 million, with Bull taking a 55% share
    • Order intake grew by 3.1% for the six month period, while the book-to-bill ratio1 was 1.09
    • Sales were especially buoyant in France in the Group’s outsourcing business and for the majority of the Security Solutions Business Line’s offerings
    • On the international front, orders were up significantly in the UK, as well as in a number of emerging markets including Poland, Egypt and Morocco
    • As a result, revenue from international activities increased, to account for 43.2% of consolidated revenues compared with 42.6% in the first half of 2011
    • Gross margin for the period was €141.5 million, representing 22.9% of revenues: an increase both in terms of total value and percentage
    • R&D costs increased, reflecting the Group’s continued and sustained efforts in research and development: vital in HPC, especially at a time when the European Union is starting to assess its strategic value to business activities. Gross R&D expenditure amounted to €38.8 million, an increase of €8.8 million
    • EBIT for the period was €18.1 million, a 29% increase compared with the EBIT of €14.0 million recorded for the first six months of 2011
    • Net income was a profit of €7.5 million, slightly higher than in H1 2011
    • Operating cashflow was €10.6 million higher than in the first six months of 2011.

    2 In the first half of 2010, order intake was €622.4 million and revenues were €591.3 million, at constant business structure
    3 In the first half of 2010, gross margin was €131.2 million and EBIT (recast to include the effect of the CVAE tax) was €12.9 million.

    Outlook

    The Group confirmed the medium-term objectives published on 9 December 2010 as part of its strategic development plan, BullWay 2011-2013. The implementation of this plan, launched during the first half of 2011, is progressing as expected. Actions aimed at instilling a new commercial momentum are bearing fruit. As a result, in two years order intake has risen by 7.7% while revenues have grown by 4.3% . In addition, careful control of business processes and indirect costs has led to a 7.9% increase in gross margin and growth in EBIT of more than 40% over the same period .

    Performance by Business Line

    Bull publishes contributive margins for each of its Business Lines, reflecting the way in which the Group is managed. Certain functional and cross-divisional costs – relating among other things to the commercial management of key accounts and the organization of international activities – have not been allocated to the BLs because of their shared nature, designed to encourage synergies.
    Comparisons are made year-on-year for the corresponding period.

    Innovative Products

    Thanks to the growth in integration activities and R&D partnerships in High-Performance Computing (HPC), external order intake grew strongly by 21.2% in the first half of 2012. Revenues were €31 million, an increase of 10.9% due on the one hand to growth in bullion – the high-end server which features native integration of VMware technologies and forms the core of bullion cloud platform – and on the other to R&D cooperation with a key industrial customer in France. The relevance of the Group’s HPC offerings was a key factor in the decision of the Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations (CDC) to chose the NumInnov project for future investment and support. The book-to-bill ratio for the period was 1.18, while the contributive margin from this Business Line was 10.6% of total revenues, a stable rate compared with 2011.

    Computing Solutions

    Thanks to extremely strong momentum in 2011, Extreme Computing offerings suffered from an unfavourable basis for comparison, both in terms of order intake in the first half (the University of Aachen, Rokkasho) and deliveries (Aachen, Rokkasho, CURIE). As a result, order intake was slightly down, by 1% compared with 2011, although orders for the Business Line’s other activities increased.
    Revenues were €372.3 million, a slight fall of 2.7% compared with H1 2011. The relative fall in the Extreme Computing business and the shrinking back of Unix activities in a more competitive marketplace were not completely compensated by the notable growth in infrastructure services and storage. The book-to-bill ratio for the Business Line was 1.07. Active monitoring of costs enabled Computing Solutions to deliver a contributive margin of €27.9 million, or 7.4% of revenues; an increase both in total value and percentage.
    Computing Solutions, along with the Security Solutions Business Line, is responsible for launching the Andromède project with SFR and CDC. This project complements the Business Line’s existing offerings in cloud computing, which were chosen by customers including the French Post Office group (La Poste) and Valeo in H1 2012.

    Business Integration Solutions

    Order intake grew strongly by 8.1% to the end of June, compared with the same period in 2011, driven mainly by software solutions and application management activities. Similarly, the Business Line recorded revenues of €158 million, up 6.3% in a market that is nevertheless extremely competitive. Activities in France, Belgium and Poland largely supported this growth. The book-to-bill ratio was 1.07 for the period while contributive margin was €5.8 million, an increase of over 70% compared with 2011 both in overall value and percentage. This dual achievement, both in terms of business activity and profitability, is especially significant in the current extremely tough economic situation. The Business Line is involved in increasingly complex initiatives, such as the project in Brazil for cosmetics company O’Boticario, where it has developed a global communications solution for 3,000 franchises on the scale of a whole continent.

    Security Solutions

    Order intake in this Business Line grew significantly, by 9% compared with the first six months of 2011, with the majority of the BL’s activities contributing to this growth. Revenues were €55.4 million, up 4.3%. The security business being developed by Bull Amesys grew significantly both in terms of revenues and profitability. The Business Line’s book-to-bill ratio was 1.17 for the period, while the contributive margin before Purchase Price Allocation (PPA) for Security Solutions was €1.3 million; a slight improvement compared with 2011. Growth continued, as it had in Q1, in the transport sector where, for example, the BL has delivered a complete bespoke ticketing solution for the Rhônexpress airport shuttle.

    EBIT
    Once unallocated functional and cross-divisional costs have been taken into account (including the costs associated with the commercial management of major accounts and managing the Group’s international organization), along with the effect of exchange rates on operating cashflow, Bull recorded consolidated EBIT of €18.1 million, or 2.9% of revenues: a 29% increase in value compared with H1 2011 (when it was €14 million, or 2.3% of revenues for the period).

    Net income
    After taking into account costs such as severance payments which were lower than in previous years (€0.7 million in 2012, compared with €4.9 million in 2011), net income was €18.6 million in the first six months of 2012. This compares with €18.2 million for the same period in 2011, which included a positive gain of €6 million related to the favourable resolution of historical litigation.
    In H1 2012, lower financial expenses meant that the net financial loss for the period was -€5.1 million, an improvement on 2011 due to the lower net discounting charge related to the R&D tax credit receivable.
    The tax charge for the period was €6.0 million, which includes CVAE of €4.1 million in relation to the first half of 2012.
    Bull recorded net income (Group share) of €7.5 million for the first six months of 2012, compared with €7.4 million for the same period in 2011.

    Cashflow
    Operating cashflow for the period was -€54.5 million compared with -€65.1 million in the first six months of 2011. This improvement is mainly due to better management of working capital requirements in 2012.
    As in previous years, the Group’s cashflow demonstrates marked seasonal variations, with the second half of the year typically being more favourable in terms of cash generation than the first. Seasonal variations are also significant within each six-month period: the months of June and December representing high-points in the Group’s cash position.
    Finally, non-recurring items in the first half of 2012, relating to acquisitions and restructuring, resulted in negative cashflow of €9.5 million, compared with negative cashflow of €4.8 million for the same period in 2011.
    At the end of June 2012, gross cash1 stood at €275 million and the Group’s net cash position1 was €199 million. The latter compares with €204.9 million as at 30 June 2011.

    Key highlights of the first six months of 2012

    Bull and SFR have been chosen to establish a sovereign computing power plant for Cloud computing: in an initiative known as the Andromède project. In order to deliver this, Bull, SFR and the French State-owned Caisse des Dépôts (CDC) will set up a jointly owned company. The project will represent an investment of some €225 million, with Bull taking a 20% stake.
    Bull’s NumInnov initiative has also been chosen by the French National Fund for a Digital Society (FSN), which is managed by CDC, to put in place an HPC Cloud. This new cloud will ensure that Extreme Computing technology is available much more widely to SMEs, both in terms of its use to support business activities and the creation of an HPC ecosystem in France.

      The geographic split of consolidated revenues for the first half of 2012 has changed slightly since 2011. Business activities in France and Europe have remained stable overall. Growth in high-potential international markets, such as North Africa and the Middle East, as well as the business gained as a result of the acquisition finalized in Egypt, explains the increase in the proportion of revenues recorded outside Europe.
