New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 44% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Earnings have declined by 44% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks High level of debt (44% net debt to equity). Market cap is less than US$100m (€39.8m market cap, or US$42.6m). Reported Earnings • Nov 07

Teleste Oyj Revises Earnings Guidance for the Financial Year 2024 Teleste Oyj revised earnings guidance for the financial year 2024. For the year, the company estimates net sales to be between EUR 120 million to EUR 135 million compared to previous guidance of EUR 140 million to EUR 150 million. The main reason for the updated guidance is the continued lower-than-expected demand in the European market for the Broadband Networks business. North American delivery volumes have started to grow, but they will not fully compensate for the volume outlook in Europe. There is also still uncertainty regarding the timing of deliveries and projects for the rest of the year. Tillkännagivande • Sep 03

Teleste Corporation Announces End-To-End 1.8 Ghz Network Demonstrated At Cablelabs' 10G Showcase Event Teleste announced that it has participated in the first successful DOCSIS® 4.0 Extended Spectrum DOCSIS (ESD) amplifier cascade demonstration that was recently completed at CableLabs’ ‘10G Showcase’ in Colorado, US. Bringing leading cable operators and technology vendors under one roof to collaborate on the industry’s multi-gigabit future, the event demonstrated the cable infrastructure’s potential as a front line for operators to continue increasing data transmission speed and capacity in their hybrid fiber-coax (HFC) networks. In the demonstration, an end-to-end system was created with equipment from Teleste and other prominent cable equipment vendors to showcase the superior performance of DOCSIS 4.0 technology. The system included four 1.8 GHz ICON amplifiers in cascade from Teleste, and the resulting network supported speed tests of 8.9 Gbps downstream and 6.2 Gbps upstream. While the demo setup included four cascaded amplifiers, it is important to note that the 1.8 GHz technology allows longer cascades as well, supporting infrastructures that are typical in the market and enabling drop-in 1.8 GHz upgrades to existing amplifier locations. Teleste continues to be leader in the HFC technologies and leverages its RF engineering capability and the automation that comes with intelligent amplifiers. The first 1.8 GHz amplifiers in Intelligent Networks portfolio were introduced in 2021, providing North American cable operators a solution to ensure high network performance under all circumstances and facilitating a true plug-and-play functionality and easy alignments in the field with a press of a single button.

CAF Selects Teleste's On-Board Systems for the Docklands Light Railway in London Teleste will deliver its on-board systems to CAF's trains for the Docklands Light Railway by Transport for London. According to the contract between Teleste and CAF, the deliveries will take place in 2021-2023, and they will cover passenger information, public address and CCTV systems as well as ultrawide TFT displays of the newest type to 43 5-car driverless light metro trains, the first of which will enter commercial service in 2023. With its annual passenger count reaching 122 million, the Docklands Light Railway in East London is the busiest light rail network in the UK. The new trains will add capacity to the network by up to 30%, thus supporting the continuously growing number of public transport users, further jobs and homes in the area. Additionally, the trains will offer passengers an improved travel experience by increasing the availability of real-time travel information, which is one of the key functionalities enabled by Teleste's passenger information system. An elemental part of Teleste's delivery will be software and applications for the management and distribution of passenger information and other types of content, such as advertisements. These allow the operator's personnel to manage the information and content displayed on moving vehicles remotely. The staff at the operation centre can, for example, utilise a special advertisement database generator to create content playlists and schedule how they are shown to passengers on board. The included mobile application, in turn, allows staff to call moving trains, give train announcements, and even respond to any possible emergency calls coming from the trains. When there is a need for visual travel information, high visibility is guaranteed by Teleste's TFT displays with an ultrawide design. The entire system is seamlessly integrated to support reliable, real-time connectivity between moving trains and the ground system, which is an essential requirement of a modern, automated transport infrastructure where trains run without a driver from one station to another.
