"New Mediterranean” is the largest contributor to Group revenues. It includes, under a unique managerial line, the « professional services » activities in France (Devoteam Expertise, Devoteam Consulting and Devoteam Solutions), as well as the North African business units. New Mediterranean reported revenues of € 37.6 million in the first quarter of 2014, slightly decreasing compared to the first quarter of 2013. However, the growth rate improved compared to that of the last quarter of 2013, reflecting a good trend in the Finance and Energy verticals, as well as in the Cloud and SaaS offers.

Revenues in "Northern Europe”, which consolidates the operations in the UK and the Scandinavian countries, decreased 3% on a like-for-like basis. After a challenging year in 2013, notably due to the closing of the R&D site of our main Telecom client in Norway, the activity showed signs of stabilization since the beginning of 2014, with a significant improvement of utilization rates.

Revenues in "Central Europe”, which gathers operations in Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Poland and Czech Republic, grew 1.1% like-for-like compared to the first quarter of 2013. The positive trend reflects successes brought about by the newly developed strategic offers. The « Network Transformation » offer allowed a stabilization of revenues in the Telecom area in Germany and the « Cloud Transformation » offer brought additional market share in the automobile industry.

At the beginning of the year, the group changed the composition of the "Single entities” operating segment. This segment included activities in Spain, the Netherlands and now incorporates the operational activities of Belgium and Luxembourg. The decrease in revenues for these entities in the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013 was mainly explained by a difficult market in the public sector in the Netherlands.

Revenues in the "Middle East & Turkey” grew 18.3% at constant exchange rates and perimeter compared to the first quarter of 2013, notably thanks to the « Data & Information Management » offer.

The "Others” operating segment combines all other operations of the Group, notably "Ventures and New Business Models”, an incubator for the newly created entities and the entities with different business models. The good business dynamics achieved during the previous quarters continued in the first quarter of 2014. Revenues decreased due to the mechanical effect of a change in revenue recognition principles applied to the revenues of Between (following the generalization of « back to back contracts» with their subcontractors). Excluding Between, revenues for the segment grew 4.4% at constant exchange rates and perimeter, notably thanks to the good performance of newly created businesses in France and management consulting activities in Norway.

Headcount and utilization rate

As of March 31st 2014, Devoteam employed a workforce of 3.858 people compared to 3.900 at the end of 2013. The billable workforce decreased slightly to 85.4% of the total workforce as of March 31st, 2014 compared to 85.5% as of December 31st 2013.

Utilization rate of internal resources4 increased from 79.6% in the first quarter of 2013 to 82.7% in the first quarter of 2014, when excluding divested entities.
