The company expressed that the 9.8% month-over-month decrease of revenue in January mainly reflected the fewer working days due to the Chinese New Year holiday starting from the end of January. The year-over-year sales increase up to 24.3% reflected strong growth momentum from Pay-TV operator market and IP STB as well as recent improvement in retail STB markets spurred by emerging markets’ demand for high-definition products. 
 

The company recently announced the partnership with Huawei to deploy DVB-T2 Set-top Box solutions for the Republic of Belarus. ALi also successfully showcased the latest T2 products, in addition to a full line-up of DVB solutions including S2, Cable, and OTT, as well as the Headless Gateway Platform at the CSTB 2014 in Moscow, targeting more opportunities from ASO (Analog Switch-off) in emerging markets.

The company expressed that the increase of revenue in December mainly reflected continuous growth in high definition products from retail STB market in emerging countries, along with significant contribution from Pay-TV operator markets in South East Asia, South Asia and Africa, as well as higher sales from IP STB in this holiday shopping season. In addition, STB manufacturing partners replenishing inventory prior to the Chinese New Year holidays in January drove the sales in December to make the yearly high. The unaudited consolidated sales for the fourth quarter (Oct-Dec) reached NT$1,280.6 million, representing a growth QoQ and YoY.  The year-over-year sales increase for both December and fourth quarter reflected recent improvement in retail STB markets and was also the result of the long-term growth momentum from Pay-TV operator market and IP STB, which the company has been cultivating.

The company also announced the plan to showcase latest products at the Convergence India 2014, South Asia's largest ICT exposition during January 21 - 23 in New Delhi.

The company expressed that the increase of revenue in November mainly reflected the continuous growth in retail STB market in emerging countries from the third quarter, along with better sales from IP STB in this holiday shopping season. In addition, the year-over-year increase reflected the long-term growth momentum from Pay-TV operator market and IP STB.

ALi Corporation (3041TT) today held its 2013 third quarter online earnings conference and announced consolidated revenue of NT$1,059 million, consolidated gross profit of NT$441 million with consolidated gross profit margin of 42%, consolidated operating loss of NT$13 million, net loss of NT$44 million, and basic earnings per share of -NT$ 0.15 for the third quarter ended September 30th, 2013.

ALi Corporation stated that third quarter’s revenue of NT$1,059 million, representing an increase of 11% on a quarter-over-quarter basis, was mainly a result of ASO (Analog switch-off) being initiated in some emerging countries and the end of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan spurring the demand in retail market both for standard and high-definition products, along with the growth momentum in Pay-TV market in emerging countries in regions such as South East Asia and Africa.  Although the third quarterly revenue of 2013 decreased year-over-year, the company has seen the growth momentum in Pay-TV market and retail IP STB. Consolidated gross profit margin was 42%, down 4 percentage points compared to the level of previous quarter due to product mix change and decreasing product margins for some segments. Consolidated operating expenses increased 12% quarter-over-quarter, primarily due to larger sales scale resulting in higher sales and administrative expenses, along with additional research and development (R&D) investments, hence causing the operation and bottom-line deficit.  
 

As to the product line contribution in the third quarter, STB accounted for around 90~95% of the revenue. ALi’s STB end markets can be categorized into retail HD, retail SD, retail IP STB (OTT), and Pay-TV operators, which accounted for 35~40%, 30~35%, 5~10%, and 20~25% of STB revenue respectively.

ALi Corporation (3041 TT) today announced the total consolidated revenue for October 2013 reached NT$388.8 million, representing a decrease of 7.4% MoM and 8.0% YoY. Aggregate revenue from January to October of 2013 was NT$3,263.7 million, down 25.2% from the same period last year.

The company expressed that the decrease of revenue reflected the situation that most STB manufacturing partners replenished inventory prior to the “Golden Week” holidays in China. However, the decline in October revenue is only moderate thanks to the steady growth in demand from retail market in emerging countries. Although the monthly revenue of October and the aggregate revenue from January to October of 2013 decreased year-over-year, the company has seen higher performance generated from Pay-TV operator market and IP STB and expects these two product segments to continuously fuel long-term growth momentum.
