DMX TECHNOLOGIES GROUP LTD Digital Media group continued to be the growth driver of revenue for 3Q09 and the 9 months; at 11.0% and 23.3% respectively. This spurred Digital Media Group to contribute 34.5% of 3Q09 and 34.3% of revenue for the 9 months. Although Managed Services division grew by 47% growth in 3Q09, this growth was insufficient to offset the lower Infrastructure Solutions revenue; especially from outside of China. As a result, Infrastructure Enabling group registered a decline in revenue of 2.9% in 3Q09. For the 9 months of FY09, Infrastructure Enabling group contributed 65.7% of total revenue; compared to 69.8% in the same corresponding period last year. The Group had a slow quarter of revenue from outside China in 3Q09; as compared to 3Q08, due to the festive season in Malaysia and Indonesia. Revenue from this geography declined to 17.8%; compared to 26% in 3Q08. This led to a revenue contribution of 24.6% for the 9 months of FY09 versus 27.7% for the 9 months of FY08. Revenue from China grew by 13.1% for the 9 months and China contributed 75.4% of total revenue; compared to 72.3% in the previous corresponding period. Gross Margins Gross margins in 3Q09 normalized back to 25.7%; compared to 22.3% in 2Q09 and 26.21% in 3Q08. For the 9 months; gross margins at 24.4% was 1.5% lower than the previous period due to sales mix. Operating Expenses (Distribution and Administrative Expenses) The Group continued to exercise control over its operating expenses; despite generating higher revenue for the 9 months. 3Q09 total operating expense at US$5.4m was about US$0.9m lower than 3Q08. US$0.2m increase in depreciation expense was offset by about US$1.2m exchange gains from the stronger Indonesian rupiah and Korean Won. Similarly, US$0.8m higher depreciation expenses for 9 months of FY09 were offset by total US$0.7m savings in distribution and administration expenses and US$1.1m of exchange gains. As a result, the Group achieved a US$1.1m lower total operating expense of US$16.6m for the 9 months of FY09 over the same period last year. Other operating expenses Total other operating expense in 3Q09 at US$3.1m was about US$0.4m more than 3Q08. For the 9 months of FY09, other operating expense at US$9.0m was US$1.5m higher than the 9 months of FY08. The increase was due mainly to increases in amortisation expenses as a result of on-going commercialization of the Group’s software. The Group incurred expenditure on software development activities to generate new products and add more features to its multi-media software during the last three years as part of DMX’s ongoing software development activities. Such expenditure were capitalised as intangible assets and amortised on a straight-line basis over 3 years upon commercial deployment. As the Group gained momentum in the commercial deployment of its multi-media software in the digital media market, higher amortisation of intangible assets was charged. Earnings DMX’s 3Q09 profit after tax at US$2.8m was US$0.4m or 18.0% better than 3Q08 and 42.6% better than 2Q09. For the 9 months, the Group has caught up with the profit after tax of the previous period at US$5.6m; and exceeded full year 2008 PAT of US$3.6m.

A commentary at the date of the announcement of the competitive conditions of the industry in which the group operates and any known factors or events that may affect the group in the next reporting period and the next 12 months. As the Group enters into its last quarter of FY09, the Group sees improving market sentiment and increased activities by telecom operators and enterprises on IT capex spending and hence believes that our core business activities will remain on track for the rest of FY2009. The improved sentiment has given the Group measured confidence that it should not need to incur any unexpected impairment or allowances for the year. With the profits after tax for the 9 months of FY09 at US$5.6m, about US$2.0m higher than full year 2008, and barring unforeseen circumstances, the Group expects FY09 profits after tax to be much better than FY08. Additionally, the Group believes that our established business network, customer reference base and track record have strengthened our ongoing long-term business fundamentals. With the primary objective of enhancing these business fundamentals, the Group entered into a subscription agreement with KDDI Corporation of Japan on 10 September 2009. This strategic transaction is intended to accelerate the growth of the Group to become a leading telecom and media solutions provider in Asia Pacific. KDDI is the second largest telecom operator in Japan and one of the mega-carrier in Asia Pacific providing fixed, mobile and broadcasting services. According to the agreement, the Group will issue over 588 million new shares to KDDI; raising cash of about S$188.4 million. Upon completion of the proposed transaction towards end of the year; KDDI will become a 50.1% controlling shareholder of the Group; on a fully diluted basis. KDDI will support the Group to continue to develop and grow its existing business through referring appropriate business opportunities, jointly developing new products and services and by transferring specialized technology, where appropriate, to enhance the Group’s competitiveness and products offering. Additionally, the capital raised will enhance the balance sheet of the Group; enabling the Group to participate in bigger projects, expand its geographical coverage and invest into new application business to take advantage of the new business opportunities within the telecom industry in China. The proposed transaction is subject to shareholders’ approval at a Special General Meeting to be held in Singapore on 20 November 2009.
