Pace warns of lower results

LONDON (ShareCast) - Set top box maker Pace Micro plunged 10% to 72p today after warning that first half results would come in lower than expected as its CEO resigned.

"Given our shipments will now be more concentrated in the second half than previously expected,
the first half result, which was expected to be below breakeven, will be commensurately affected," said Pace.

Chairman Sir Michael Bett added that some shipments may also move into the following financial year.

"We have experienced some delays in product development but these delays, typical of new product projects, have not impacted our expectations for the year as a whole," added Bett.

Pace said competition in the payTV market remains intense and consequently it is looking to explore new technology opportunities in other markets. "We are especially interested in new ventures that can offer us the potential for additional recurring revenue streams and are making good progress on this front," said Pace.

Chief executive John Dyson has also decided, after discussion with the board, to announce his intention to retire from the Board. Dyson continues until a replacement is found and after a suitable handover period.

Nothing new apart from retiring CEO and confirming that the market is huge. slight delay with no impact is good but retiring CEO is good the best news IMO

This session features presentations and a panel discussion of proposed requirements for new entrants to the world of HDTV. Europe, South America, Japan and Asia are about to confirm standards and begin HDTV broadcasting. Some will opt for satellite delivery; others terrestrial, cable, or fibre. What standards will be utilized? How will HDTV interplay with SD terrestrial broadcasting? Will this be a pay-only service? How will we ensure that no viewer is disenfranchised? Will manufacturers make equipment and receivers for new proposed standards? Who will pay?

17/1/2006 Pace Micro slumps to loss

UK set-top box maker Pace Micro Technology slid into the red during the first half its fiscal year due to the increasing penetration of digital television.

The group reported a loss before tax and restructuring costs of 8.9m in the first half to December 3rd 2005, compared to a profit of 4.7m a year earlier, as revenue slumped to 78.9m from 150.5m.

Shipments of set-top boxes fell to 1.1 million over the period, from 2.1 million in 2004, a fall that CEO, John Dyson, attributed to the fact that there are simply fewer and fewer homes without some form of digital television.

Digital TV penetration had risen to around 70% in the UK, meaning fewer new customers for Pace Micro, Dyson told reporters in an interview.

There were also unflattering comparisons with the previous year's sales to British Sky Broadcasting Group's Italian unit and to Australia's Foxtel; 2004 was a bumper year for digital take-up in those countries, he explained.

Still, Dyson said he expected a 'substantial' pick-up in business in the second half of the fiscal year, albeit not enough to make up for the weak first half. The CEO said he expects Pace Micro to post a loss of 'one or two million (pounds)' over the full year.

Revenues should improve significantly during the second half through shipments to the US as well as Premiere in Germany, UPC in The Netherlands, Foxtel in Australia and Sky New Zealand.

However, this growth will be offset somewhat as in the UK the group expects units and revenues to continue to decline in the short-term, said the company in its earnings statement.

Lookng further ahead, Pace said it was 'well positioned' for a solid performance in the next financial year due to growing demand for new technologies such as high definition TV, particularly to the US.

Sales of high-definition TVs were already outstripping analogue in the US, and a similar 'explosion' expected in Europe in '18 months to three years', said Dyson.

By the end of the fiscal first half, net cash stood at 13.6m, compared with 26.4m on June 4th 2005. The group also said it has arranged new bank facilities to cover its anticipated working capital requirements as the business builds in the second half.

Dont seem to be able to give them away at 57p,,looking at going back in at around 50p,,signals a bit to strong for me yet..
