� On February 7, InVision AG presented its figures for the year 2017 (prel.). In Q4, these were around 10% below expectations (sales) and are thus within the typical fluctuation range.
� In particular, the company succeeded in reducing project business in 2016 from EUR 2.2 million (2015) to an insignificant share in 2016 (EUR 1.1 million, -50%).
� The decisive factor is the significant increase in the number of employees planned for the coming years and the corresponding earnings prospects.
The core message of the presented figures was the information to increase the number of employees from currently 106 by 180 to 286 in four areas (1-4) by 2018. The choice of the timing is due to the fact that the management is now able to plan the sales processes in the key segments: In the past, the processes for customer acquisition and, in particular, the "implementation" of customers in the area of workforce management (1) have become very highly automated. Although the degree of automation is increased further, it has now reached a level where sales and customer satisfaction allow sales-employees to be monetised highly efficiently (flanked by statistical significance owing to a very high number of leads). The addressable target market in this segment is around EUR 300m per year. In the Call Center School (2), the delivery model was converted into an "a-la-carte" model (customers purchase what they need) in Q4 / 16. Here, too, statistics are available based on a simple sales and customer care process. The very high number of individual users (in each case very small) also allows a relatively precise planning of the efficiency of new sales employees. The addressable market is around EUR 400m a year. Both areas are characterised by an unprecedented number of leads even before the planned investment in marketing (3) is to be done. In addition, both offers are to be automated / developed further, so that the area of software development (4) will need further staff. In particular, the long-term impact of this capacity expansion should be substantial on the revenue side. At the same time, the risks resulting from the measurability of the employee success are manageable. Nevertheless, owing to the very significant structural change in the company, the already very high risk adjustment is once again clearly increased (beta from 1.6 to 1.8). The Invision share is continued to be rated with a "Buy" with a revised price target of EUR 70 (73).

� For 2017 no sales effect is expected yet. 2017 is mainly characterized by strong personnel development and latencies in the training of employees as well as the fact that the existing organization is strongly challenged. Significantly higher costs greatly reduce the result. In 2018 an earnings level above the previous expectation is anticipated.
� In 2019 and beyond, earnings are increasing even more significantly on a higher sales basis

DISCLOSURE ACCORDING TO §34B OF THE GERMAN SECURITIES TRADING ACT (WHPG), THE ORDINANCE ON THE ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (FINANV) AND MAR INCL. COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2016/958
The valuation underlying the investment recommendation for the company analysed here is based on generally accepted and widely used methods of
fundamental analysis, such as e.g. DCF Model, Free Cash Flow Potential, Peer Group Comparison or Sum of the Parts Model. The result of this
fundamental valuation is modified to take into consideration the analyst’s assessment as regards the expected development of investor sentiment and
its impact on the share price.
Independent of the applied valuation methods, there is the risk that the price target will not be met, for instance because of unforeseen changes in
demand for the company’s products, changes in management, technology, economic development, interest rate development, operating and/or
material costs, competitive pressure, supervisory law, exchange rate, tax rate etc. For investments in foreign markets and instruments there are further
risks, generally based on exchange rate changes or changes in political and social conditions.
This commentary reflects the opinion of the relevant author at the point in time of its compilation. A change in the fundamental factors underlying the
valuation can mean that the valuation is subsequently no longer accurate. Whether, or in what time frame, an update of this commentary follows is not
determined in advance.
Additional internal and organisational arrangements to prevent or to deal with conflicts of interest have been implemented. Among these are the spatial
separation of Warburg Research GmbH from M.M.Warburg & CO (AG & Co.) KGaA and the creation of areas of confidentiality. This prevents the
exchange of information, which could form the basis of conflicts of interest for Warburg Research in terms of the analysed issuers or their financial
instruments.
The analysts of Warburg Research GmbH do not receive a gratuity – directly or indirectly – from the investment banking activities of M.M.Warburg &
CO (AG & Co.) KGaA or of any company within the Warburg Group.
All prices of financial instruments given in this investment recommendation are the closing prices on the last stock-market trading day before the
publication date stated, unless another point in time is explicitly stated.
M.M.Warburg & CO (AG & Co.) KGaA and Warburg Research GmbH are subject to the supervision of the Federal Financial Supervisory Authority,
BaFin. M.M.Warburg & CO (AG & Co.) KGaA is additionally subject to the supervision of the European Central Bank (ECB).
