CyanConnode (AIM: CYAN), a world leader in narrowband radio
frequency (RF) mesh networks, announces its unaudited interim
results for the six months ended 30 September 2023 (H1 FY

John Cronin, CyanConnode Executive Chairman, commented:
"The Indian smart metering market and the Revamped Distribution
Sector Scheme (RDSS) continues to gather momentum with tenders for
more than 220 million smart meters having been sanctioned to
date.
CyanConnode is experiencing a period of rapid growth and has won
orders for a total of 5.3 million Omnimesh modules to date in India
alone, with a significant portion of these (4 million) having been
won during the past 18 months.
Orders have continued to be won in other territories too, such
as the order announced in October from the MENA region, which was a
follow-on order from the contract announced in April 2022.
We can confirm that revenue is expected to meet market
expectations and look forward to updating on further progress in
due course."

Revenue and Operating Costs
Revenue for the first six months of FY 2024 was in line with
management's expectations, and 4.3 times the revenue for the same
period of FY 2023. With orders having been won in India for 1.4
million Omnimesh modules during the period, and a further order for
0.3 million Omnimesh modules won since period end, as well as order
backlog from projects won in FY 2023, the Company expects a
significant increase in revenue during the second half of FY 2024.
Gross margins are weaker than H1 FY 2023 as H1 FY 2024 has been
hardware sales intensive, including lower margin sales of
third-party hardware in territories outside India. Gross margins
for hardware in India remain as expected. The increase in operating
costs was largely due to increased headcount to meet the growth of
the business.
Cash
During the period cash was utilised to both purchase stocks of
long lead-time components to support delivery during the remainder
of the financial year, (stock of 360,000 long lead-time components
were held at period end to allow H2 FY24 deliveries to be met) and
investing in recruitment to support growth.
Accounts receivable
A total of GBP7.4m cash was collected from customers during the
period (compared to GBP4.5m for the entirety of FY 2023), and a
further GBP2.4m since the period end. In the period, our contract
assets, reported in the non-current assets part of the balance
sheet, increased to GBP2.4m (FY 2023: GBP2.1m), where revenue has
been recognised in accordance with IFRS 15, and will be paid for
over the period of the contract. The remainder of trade receivables
included in non-current assets related to accrued income from
contracts. Approximately 44% of cash collection during H1 FY 2024
related to trade receivables from FY 2023 and a further 17% of FY
2023 trade receivables have been collected since period end.
GBP1,124k of trade receivables has been collected via invoice
discounting and reflected as short-term borrowings in the balance
sheet as required by IFRS. The net value of trade receivables in
the current section of the balance sheet after taking this into
account is therefore GBP8,056k less GBP1,124k = GBP6,932k (FY23
GBP7,224k less GBP426k = GBP6,798k) (see Note 4).
Operational Review
India
The Government of India plans to rollout 250 million smart
meters through tenders for large volumes, of which tenders for more
than 220 million smart meters had been sanctioned to the end of
November 2023.
The table further below is a summary taken from
https://www.nsgm.gov.in/en/sm-stats-all which lists all tenders
sanctioned, along with the numbers of meters awarded and deployed
to date. The highlighted sections in green show the utilities in
which CyanConnode has deployed Omnimesh modules. While contracts
for almost 100 million smart meters have been awarded to date,
these awards have been to prime bidders who are typically AMISPs,
and there can be a delay of a few months between the award of the
contract to the AMISP and the subsequent award to subcontractors
such as CyanConnode.
CyanConnode has seen its strategic agreement with IntelliSmart
(signed February 2023) begin to take effect, with three orders
placed in H1 FY 2024 under the agreement, and a fourth placed
following the end of the period as set out below. In addition to
the modules, the orders include advanced metering infrastructure,
standards-based hardware, services, Omnimesh head-end software,
perpetual license, and annual maintenance contracts.
-- In May 2023, an order was received for 600,000 Omnimesh RF
Modules, for the Pachimanchal Vidyut Vitran Nigam Ltd (PVVNL) smart
metering project in Uttar Pradesh
-- In July 2023, an order was received for 300,000 Omnimesh RF
Modules, for the Dakshin Gujarat Smart Metering Private Limited
(DGVCL) smart metering project in Gujarat
-- In August 2023, an order was received for 500,000 Omnimesh RF
Modules, for the Power Grid Corporation of India Limited (PGCIL)
smart metering project for Madhya Gujarat Vij Company Limited
(MGVCL) in Gujarat
-- In October 2023, an order was received for 300,000 Omnimesh
RF Modules, for the South Bihar Power Distribution Company Ltd
(SBPDCL) smart metering project
APAC and Middle East
The smart metering market in the APAC and Middle East continues
to mature and presents a significant opportunity for
CyanConnode.
During the period CyanConnode continued to deploy its contract
for the MENA region which was announced in April 2022. In October
2023, the Company was pleased to announce a follow-on order for
this project, and shipments for this order are now underway.
Additionally, the Metropolitan Electricity Authority (MEA) Smart
Grid Project, won in December 2019 continues to roll out in
Thailand. The Company has now also provided its Cellular Network
Interface Cards (CNICs) which are successfully connecting to the
network.
Post period end developments and outlook
Orders
In October 2023, an order for a further 300,000 Omnimesh modules
and associated products was won from IntelliSmart, taking the
Company's total order book for India to 5.3 million modules, of
which 3.1 million are yet to be shipped. In addition, a letter of
award was received for a follow-on smart metering deployment in the
MENA region. This follow-on contract builds upon the first MENA
order announced by the Company in April 2022 and is for
CyanConnode's cellular communications product, which will be
deployed to connect smart electricity and smart water meters. Under
the LOA, CyanConnode will supply cellular hubs, with a capacity to
connect 1.41 million devices. Delivery of the first hubs has now
commenced, with the full contract expected to be delivered over the
next 12 months.
As of the end of November 2023, CyanConnode has won orders for
5.3 million Omnimesh modules in India alone, with 2.2 million
shipped to the end of November 2023, leaving a backlog still to be
shipped of 3.1 million. CyanConnode's presence in the market
represents 25% of the total installed base, and its win rate is 25%
in terms of volumes and 40% in terms of tenders awarded.
Cash
On 9 November 2023 CyanConnode Holdings plc raised GBP2.7
million (before expenses) through an oversubscribed placing of
19,188,500 ordinary shares of 2.0 pence each and a subscription for
8,000,000 New Ordinary Shares. In addition, each subscriber in the
Placing and the Subscription has been issued one Investor Warrant
(as defined in the placing announcement of 8 November 2023) for
each new Ordinary Share subscribed for. Each Investor Warrant has
an exercise price of 15.0 pence per ordinary share. If exercised in
full, the Investor Warrants would result in the issue of a total of
27,188,500 further new Ordinary Shares, raising a further
GBP4.1m.
Cash as at the end of November 2023 was GBP1.1m. Cash collected
from customers since the period end was GBP2.4m taking cash
received for the eight-month period to the end of November 2023 to
GBP9.2m, plus GBP0.6m received from customers since the end of
November 2023.
Awards and recognition
In November 2023, CyanConnode was pleased to announce that its
subsidiary in India had been recognised as the second
fastest-growing UK company in India according to the prestigious
Britain Meets India (BMI) 2023 report. Additionally, the Company
was ranked as 12th fastest-growing business in the Midlands and
East of England, according to the 2023 Fast Growth 50 index.

Notes to the Accounts
1. Basis of Preparation
The interim financial statements are for the six months ended 30
September 2023. They do not include all the information required
for full annual financial statements and should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Group
for the year ended 31 March 2023, which have been filed at
Companies House. The Group's auditor issued a report on those
financial statements that was unqualified and did not contain a
statement under section 498(2) or section 498(3) of the Companies
Act 2006, however, the auditor's report emphasized the uncertainty
around the Group's ability to continue as a going concern.
These interim financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with UK-adopted International Accounting Standards.
These financial statements have been prepared under the historical
cost convention.
These interim financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with the accounting policies adopted in the last annual
financial statements for the year to 31 March 2023. The accounting
policies have been applied consistently throughout the group for
the purpose of preparation of these interim financial statements
and are expected to be followed throughout the year ending 31 March
2024.
2. Going Concern
To assess the ability of the Group to continue as a going
concern, the Directors have prepared a business plan and cash flow
forecast for the period to 31 March 2025 which, together, represent
the Directors' best estimate of the future development of the
Group. The forecast contains certain assumptions, the most
significant of which are the level and timing of sales and the
timing of customer payments. These detailed cashflow scenarios
include Letters of Credit which have been secured from the
customers against contracts recently won.
The Group's business activities, together with the factors
likely to affect its future development, performance and position,
have been considered in depth as part of the Directors' assessment
of the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. The
Directors have reviewed detailed trading forecasts for H2 of FY24.
An upturn in business activities and revenue is expected during
this period, which will ensure the Group's ability to meet market
expectations for the full financial year. At 30 September 2023 the
Group had cash reserves of GBP0.9 million (31 March 2023: GBP4.1
million) and completed a fundraise in November 2023, raising GBP2.7
million before expenses. In addition to the funds raised, warrants
were issued to each investor in the fundraise, which if exercised
in full during the exercise period of eighteen months, would raise
a further GBP4.1 million. Based on detailed cash flow provided to
the Board to 31 March 2025, there is sufficient cash for a period
of at least 12 months from the date of approval of this report,
with forecasts prepared in line with its standard operating model.
However, should the Company require additional cash to cover
working capital as a result of rapid growth, there could be a
requirement for additional funding for this purpose. The Company
continues to discuss working capital funding solutions with banks,
particularly in India. The Company has been approached with
alternative sources of finance, to support growth, such as secured
loans, which it could accept should such a requirement arise.
The Company received a R&D tax credit of GBP747,154 from
HMRC in August 2023. An advance loan of GBP500,000, received in
November 2022 was in place against this R&D tax credit, and was
repaid out of the proceeds of the tax credit received in August
2023. The Company intends to secure an advance against its R&D
tax credit for the current financial year, anticipated to be for a
minimum of GBP0.5 million, in the coming months.
Notwithstanding the material uncertainties described above,
which may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Group to

3. Loss per Share
The calculation of the basic and diluted loss per share is based
on the following data:
Unaudited Unaudited Audited
6 months to 6 months to 12 months to
30 September 30 September 31 March
2023 2022 2023
====================================================================== ==============
Loss for the purposes of basic loss per share being net loss
attributable to equity holders
of the parent (GBP000) (1,874) (2,114) (2,406)
====================================================================== ============== ============== ==============
Weighted average number of ordinary shares for the purposes of basic
and diluted loss per
share 260,581,840 225,033,577 232,763,664
====================================================================== ============== ============== ==============
Loss per share (pence) (0.72) (0.94) (1.03)
====================================================================== ============== ============== ==============
The denominations used are the same as those detailed above for
both basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing
operations. However, in accordance with IAS 33 "Earnings Per
Share", potential ordinary shares are only considered dilutive when
their conversion would decrease the profit per share or increase
the loss per share from continuing operations attributable to the
equity shareholders.

6. Post Balance Sheet Event
On 9 November 2023 CyanConnode Holdings plc raised GBP2.7
million (before expenses) through a placing of 19,188,500 ordinary
shares of 2.0 pence each and a subscription for 8,000,000 New
Ordinary Shares. In addition, each subscriber in the Placing and
the Subscription has been issued one Investor Warrant, as defined
in the placing announcement of 8 November 2023, for each new
Ordinary Share subscribed for by it in the Placing or the
Subscription. Each Investor Warrant has an exercise price of 15.0
pence per ordinary share. If exercised in full, the Investor
Warrants would result in the issue of a total of 27,188,500 further
new Ordinary Shares, raising a further GBP4.1 million.
7. Interim Results
The Group's Interim Results report is available for download on
the Group's website, www.cyanconnode.com. The report will not be
posted to shareholders.
[1] GBP1,124k of trade receivables has been collected via
invoice discounting and reflected as short-term borrowings in the
balance sheet as required by IFRS. The net value of trade
receivables in the current section of the balance sheet after
taking this into account is therefore GBP8,056k less GBP1,124k =
GBP6,932k (FY23 GBP7,224k less GBP426k = GBP6,798k)
