Operational highlights:

-- Successful scaling up of the Company's sales team with increased reach into international markets.

-- Continued investment in R&D to up scale the company business from an IP/technology company to a complete solutions delivery Company, including the offering of a complete software solution for our SoC business directed to Tier 1 OEMs, and the required smart NIC software.

   --     A new contract signed for the Company's ACENIC 100 Smart NIC... 

-- Initiating a design win with a USA tier 1 OEM vendor, expected to result in ongoing royalty streams in the coming years.

Leading on from the annual results for 2017 published in June of this year, to date we have:

-- Completed development of the Company's new 100Gb ACENIC100 hardware, that will host the field proven packet processing deployed in half a million platforms to date, planned for release to customers by Q4/18.

-- Continued progressing our ACENIC project wins for virtual broadband gateway, virtual router and virtual security gateways, which are in mature integration stages at customers platforms that should result in initial orders of our SmartNIC solution during 2019 and mass production during 2020.

David Levi, Chief Executive Officer of Ethernity Networks, commented:

"The first half results are in-line with our expectations with the focus being on the Company moving from an IP/technology provider to a solutions provider for virtual networking and security appliances. They reflect also market place delays around the virtualized networking environment that we have elaborated on earlier in the year, along with the difficulties wherein a historic customer experienced contractual difficulties with their customer resulting in a material decline in business with them during 2017 . In parallel the company has also invested in advancing the current technology to support higher throughput and additional functionality, targeted at Tier 1 OEM's products, that can generate clear growth and forecasts not just for smart NIC but also for the IP/ technology business.

"We stated in the past that with the funds raised we will be able to contract wins into the Tier 1 OEMs and I am pleased to report that we are in advanced stages of ENET networking software porting into a Tier 1 OEM's FPGA based platform and are in the advanced stage of signing a contract with another T1 OEM vendor. The new funding within the Company resulting from the IPO has allowed Ethernity to make the solutions breakthroughs the Company intended that will clearly demonstrate the value of our technology.

Our smart NIC business and new ACENIC100 that supports 100GE, 2x40G, and 8x10G interfaces is gaining significant traction, and as highlighted, we have already signed a contract for the new ACENIC100 in June and are in the process with a few customers that now plan to move into production and deployment with our new ACENIC100.

"We remain confident that Ethernity will meet its long term objectives and will be positioned as one of the key solutions providers in its marketplace."

OPERATIONAL and financial REVIEW

Although the challenging revenue trend has continued through the first six months of 2018, ongoing customer engagement activity has increased substantially. There has been significant progress related to Smart NIC and the Company has signed a contract with a leading APAC customer in the first half of this year and expects to receive orders from other customers in the near term.

We had elaborated earlier in the year that the adoption of the new networking virtualisation market in which we operate was delayed by some 12 months and our trading results, as a consequence, reflects this delay. We remain confident in the long term prospects of the Company as evidenced by the number of ongoing project collaborations around the Company's ACENIC product line

The company continues to operate in line with its budgeted cost base and R&D expense allocation, forecasting to generate positive cash flows from operating activities during 2020. Whilst this continues to be reviewed and adjusted where appropriate, R&D activity and related expenditure remains focussed on new product developments aligned with the market and customer requirements.

During the period under review, the Company delivered revenues of $441,247 (H1 2017 $988,995) and a gross profit of $299,647 (H1 2017 $857,884). The gross profit percentage of 67.91% (H1 2017 86.7%) is lower as compared to H1 2017 due to the different product mix within the revenues, where design wins and royalty revenues attracts a near 100% margin, contributing 55.4% of revenues in H1 2018 as opposed to 72.4% in H1 2017.

EBITDA in the first six months of the year was a loss of $1,111,999 (H1 2017 $441,292), which primarily reflects the Company's investment into the Sales & Marketing and R&D activities. The increased level of expenditure is in line with the initial plans of expanding our operational activities and the anticipated structures have now bedded down.

Operating expenses (including share-based compensation costs), as a percentage of revenues were 49.2% in H1 2017, increasing to 357% of revenues for H1 2018. The increases are attributable to increased spending on Marketing & Selling costs in-line with the Company's objectives and an increase in General & Administration expenses, specifically in relation to the Company's post IPO annual costs. The Company anticipates no further material annualised cost increases in its net R&D and Marketing and Sales expenses as it has now essentially built its teams to make the most of the opportunities in the market and to accelerate market penetration, in-line with expectation and plans.

Cash, cash deposits and cash equivalents are $11.9m as at 30 June 2018 (H1 2017 $18.2 million). Cash utilisation remains in line with forecasts. The Board remains confident that the Company has adequate cash reserves to meet its planned requirements.

Comparing this Segment Report to the same period in 2017, the shifting of the geographic mix is represented by the makeup of the products supplied, where in the first half of the current financial year the revenues were skewed towards royalty and component supplies in Israel. The trend is expected to change during the second half of the year as design wins and product supply as expected and based on the anticipated contract wins noted above materialise. This too should have a significantly positive impact on product margins and the gross profit percentage.

Outlook

The Board remains confident that Ethernity will meet its long-term objectives and will be well positioned as one of the key solutions providers in its marketplace. Network service providers are requiring more flexible solutions to their technology and network needs for offloading support of new data appliances introduced by the market. Ethernity believes it has the best-in-class system solutions to address these needs.

The interim condensed financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2018 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as adopted by the European Union. The interim condensed financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements in accordance with IFRS and should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual financial statements as at 31 December 2017. The accounting policies applied in the preparation of the interim condensed financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Company's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017 except as described below with respect of the implementation of new international financial reporting standards that became effective during the interim period.

The interim financial statements for the half-year ended 30 June 2018 (including comparative amounts) were approved and authorised for issue by the board of directors on 6 September 2018.

New Standards adopted as at 1 January 2018

The Company has adopted the new accounting pronouncements which have become effective this

year, and are as follows:

IFRS 15 'Revenue from Contracts with Customers'

IFRS 15 presents new requirements for the recognition of revenue, replacing IAS 18 'Revenue', IAS 11 'Construction Contracts', and several revenue-related interpretations. The new standard establishes a control-based revenue recognition model and provides additional guidance in many areas not covered in detail under existing IFRSs, including how to account for arrangements with multiple performance obligations, variable pricing, customer refund rights, supplier repurchase options, and other common complexities.

IFRS 15 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The company adopted the Standard retrospectively, with cumulative effect of initially applying the Standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings on the initial date of application. Under this method, IFRS 15 was only applied to contracts that were incomplete as at 1 January 2018.

   NOTE 2                 -              SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) 

The adoption of IFRS 15 did not have material impact on the company's revenue streams and selling contracts, the financial reporting and disclosures and on the business processes, controls and systems. Thus, the adoption of IFRS 15 did not have material impact on the financial statements.

IFRS 9 'Financial Instruments'

The new Standard for financial instruments (IFRS 9) replaced IAS 39 'Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement'. It makes major changes to the previous guidance on the classification and measurement of financial assets and introduces an 'expected credit loss' model for the impairment of financial assets.

IFRS 9 also contains new requirements on the application of hedge accounting. The new requirements aligned hedge accounting more closely with entities' risk management activities by increasing the eligibility of both hedged items and hedging instruments and introduced a more principles-based approach to assessing hedge effectiveness.

The following areas were identified as the most impacted by the application of IFRS 9:

-- The classification and measurement of the Company's financial assets - Management holds most financial assets to hold and collect the associated cash flows. However, management has determined that the majority of financial assets held by the Company as of the adoption date (including the company's major investment in short term deposit) are eligible to be accounted for at amortised cost as in accordance with the previous IFRS. Accordingly, the new guidance did not affect the classification and measurement of these financial assets.

-- The impairment of financial assets applying the expected credit loss model - This applies to the Company's trade receivables and other short term investments in debt-type assets that were previously classified as 'Loans and Receivables'. For contract assets that will arise from IFRS 15 and trade receivables, the Company determined to apply a simplified model of recognising lifetime expected credit losses as these items do not have a significant financing component.

The new standard also introduces expanded disclosure requirements and changes in presentation. These are expected to change the nature and extent of the Company's disclosures about financial instruments in its annual financial instruments.

The Company applied IFRS 9, retrospectively from 1 January 2018, with the practical expedients permitted under the standard. Comparatives for 2017 were not be restated. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

New Standards not yet adopted in the financial statements

IFRS 16 'Leases'

IFRS 16 will replace IAS 17 and three related Interpretations. It completes the IASB's long-running project to overhaul lease accounting. In accordance with IFRS 16, the accounting for leases will be as follows: leases will be recorded in the statement of financial position in the form of a right-of-use asset and a lease liability to pay rentals. The only exceptions are short-term and low-value leases. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance expense, whereas the finance expense is charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The right-of-use asset is depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis.

   NOTE 2         -     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) 

The accounting for lessors will not significantly change.

In order to determine the impact of IFRS 16, the Company is required to perform a full review of all agreements in order to assess whether any additional contracts will now become a lease under IFRS 16's new definition. The company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease based on whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

IFRS 16 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. At this stage, the Company does not intend to adopt the standard before its effective date. Management is yet to fully assess the impact of the Standard. However, in order to determine the impact, the following actions will have to be completed before the standard will become effective:

-- Performing a full review of all agreements to assess whether any additional contracts will become lease contracts under IFRS 16's new definition of a lease.

-- Deciding which transitional provision to adopt; either full retrospective application or partial retrospective application (which means comparatives do not need to be restated).

   --     Deciding which of the practical expedients to adopt. 
   --     Assessing current disclosures with respect to for current lease agreements. 

-- Determining which optional accounting simplifications are available and whether to apply them.

   --     Considering the IT system requirements. 
   --     Assessing the additional disclosures that might be required. 

Based on management current assessment so far, the new standard is expected to affect the accounting for leased premises of its primary offices, which under the current accounting are classified as operating leases and accordingly, the lease payments are recognized as an expense in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The company estimates the effects of IFRS 16 application, based on the present value calculation, as being $270,000 in the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities over the entire period of all the leases including any options to extend the leases if such options are considered as reasonably certain to be exercised. The discount rate used to determine the lease liability was 3.1%.
