Rambus Announces Pricing of $120 Million Convertible Senior Notes Offering

SUNNYVALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Rambus Inc. (NAS: RMBS) today announced the pricing of its offering of $120 million aggregate principal amount of its 1.125% Convertible Senior Notes due 2018 (the "Notes") in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). Rambus has granted the initial purchasers a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional $18 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes on the same terms and conditions to cover over-allotments, if any. The offering is expected to close on August 16, 2013, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

The Notes will be unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of Rambus. Interest on the Notes will be paid semi-annually at a rate of 1.125% per annum, and the Notes will mature on August 15, 2018, unless earlier repurchased or converted. Holders may require Rambus to repurchase their Notes upon the occurrence of certain events that constitute a fundamental change under the indenture governing the Notes at a purchase price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the repurchase date. Rambus may not redeem the Notes prior to maturity.

Prior to May 15, 2018, the Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders only during certain periods upon the occurrence of specified events, and thereafter until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, the Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders at any time. The Notes will be convertible, subject to certain conditions, into cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be converted, and any excess conversion value will be convertible into cash, shares of common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at Rambus' election. The initial conversion rate will be 82.8329 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $12.07 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. This initial conversion price represents a premium of approximately 37.5% relative to the last reported sale price of Rambus' common stock of $8.78 per share on August 12, 2013.

Rambus intends to use the net proceeds of the offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes, which may include financing potential acquisitions and strategic transactions and repayment of indebtedness, including Rambus' 5% convertible senior notes due 2014.

This announcement is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any of these securities and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation, or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale is unlawful. Any offer of the securities will be made only by means of a private offering memorandum. The Notes and the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes, if any, will not be registered under the Act or any state securities laws, and unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act and applicable state laws.

Heidelberg achieves significant improvement in result for first quarter of 2013/2014

• Sales of EUR 504 million in line with expectations
• Operating result excluding special items (EBITDA) some EUR 45 million better than in previous year at EUR -2 million
• Free cash flow including payments for Focus 2012 at break-even (previous year: EUR -112 million)
• Outlook remains unchanged: Aiming for net profit in financial year 2013/2014

HEIDELBERG, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The new organization and the comprehensive range of cost-cutting measures are showing tangible results at Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (FWB: HDD). As expected, the company significantly improved its operating result in the first quarter of financial year 2013/2014 (April 1 to June 30, 2013), which puts it on the right track for meeting its target of a positive net result for the year.

"The substantial increase in our operating result makes us confident that we will record a profit for the year as a whole," said Heidelberg CEO Gerold Linzbach. "In order to achieve this, we are systematically pressing ahead with our strategic reorganization so as to further improve our margins for new machine sales in the future and adapt our cost structures to the market situation on an ongoing basis," he added.

Group sales in the first quarter were in line with expectations at EUR 504 million, despite being around 3 percent down on the figure for the same quarter of the previous year (EUR 520 million). Sales fell slightly in all three segments - Equipment, Services and Financial Services. In most regions, they matched the previous year's level. In the South America region, however, Brazil's continuing economic difficulties hit business hard.

As expected, results improved significantly in the first quarter thanks to sustained savings from Focus 2012 and higher profit contributions for new equipment. What's more, the previous year's results had been burdened by trade show expenditures. EBITDA excluding special items improved considerably from EUR -47 million to EUR -2 million. At EUR -20 million, the result of operating activities (EBIT) excluding special items clearly surpassed the previous year's figure of EUR -67 million. Special items in the reporting period totaled EUR 1 million (previous year: EUR 6 million). At EUR -12 million, the financial result for the first quarter remained stable at the previous year's level. Accordingly, the pre-tax result improved significantly from EUR -85 million to around EUR -33 million. Overall, the net loss in the first quarter of 2013/2014 was halved from the previous year's figure of EUR -76 million to EUR -38 million.

Incoming orders amounted to EUR 643 million in the reporting period. The far higher order volume of EUR 890 million in the same quarter of the previous year can be explained by the industry trade show drupa, which took place in May 2012. The China Print trade show in May this year went well, but coincided with a reluctance to invest in the Europe, Middle East and Africa region and the South America region, especially in Brazil. At EUR 602 million, the order backlog at June 30, 2013 was 20 percent up on the figure for the previous quarter (EUR 502 million).

Free cash flow, including payments for Focus totaling EUR 31 million, at break-even; net debt at the same level

Thanks to the continuation of comprehensive asset management and the net working capital program, the free cash flow reached break-even in the first quarter. This was a sizable improvement of around EUR 112 million compared to the figure for the same quarter of the previous year.

Thanks to the free cash flow breaking even, at EUR 258 million net debt remained at almost the same level as at financial year-end 2012/2013 and did so despite further payments for Focus 2012 amounting to some EUR 31 million in the first quarter.

"Thanks to systematic asset management over the past four years, we have succeeded in also covering our restructuring costs with the free cash flow. This has enabled Heidelberg to keep its net debt at a low level," said CFO Dirk Kaliebe. "With the recent successful convertible bond issue and our existing bond, the majority of our debt is now covered by long-term capital market instruments. This places Heidelberg on a sound financial footing," he added.

By issuing a convertible bond in July 2013, Heidelberg further diversified its financing structure in terms of both financing sources and maturity profile. The EUR 60 million convertible bond matures in July 2017. Issuing it enabled the company to further reduce its syndicated credit line to around EUR 416 million.

As expected, due to the net loss for the quarter, equity at June 30, 2013 had decreased by € 37 million to € 364 million compared to the level recorded at March 31, 2013. The equity ratio was 16 percent (previous year: 17 percent). Along with the planned return to profitability, Heidelberg is endeavoring to achieve a sustainable improvement in its equity ratio in the medium term.

As planned, the workforce as of June 30, 2013 fell to 13,669 (same quarter of the previous year: 14,899). The aim is to reduce the Group's headcount to less than 13,500 by mid-2014 at the latest.

Outlook remains unchanged: Aiming for net profit in financial year 2013/2014

The outlook for financial year 2013/2014 and the subsequent years remains unchanged. Economic uncertainties and risks persist, especially in the emerging markets of China and Brazil that are important to Heidelberg. As in previous years, Heidelberg is expecting its sales to pick up in the second half of the financial year. Accordingly, the company's aim is to match the previous year's Group sales in financial year 2013/2014 as a whole. The expected distribution of sales between the first and second half of the year will also influence the operating result in the course of the year. This was still negative in the first quarter but nevertheless was a big improvement on the figure for the previous year. The company expects the result of operating activities excluding special items to continue to improve over the coming quarters and be considerably higher for the year as a whole than in the previous year. Further one-time expenses for Focus 2012 will be incurred during the current financial year. The financial result will be slightly better than in the previous year. With the measures it has introduced, the company still aims at achieving a net profit in financial year 2013/2014.

The report on the first quarter of financial year 2013/2014, image material, and further information about the company can be accessed at www.heidelberg.com.

Next dates:

The figures for the second quarter 2013/2014 are due to be published on November 5, 2013.

Dentsu Reports Consolidated Financial Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 (Japanese GAAP)

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Dentsu Inc. (TOKYO:4324)(ISIN:JP3551520004)(President & CEO: Tadashi Ishii; Head Office: Tokyo; Capital: 71,204.7 million yen) today convened a meeting of its Board of Directors at its Head Office in Tokyo at which it finalized its consolidated and non-consolidated financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2013 (April 1-June 30, 2013).

The Dentsu Group posted consolidated billings (net sales) of 514,229 million yen (14.9% year-on-year increase); gross profit of 122,882 million yen (60.7% increase); operating loss of 717 million yen (operating income of 9,571 million yen was posted for the same period of the previous fiscal year); operating income before amortization of goodwill and intangible assets of 10,032 million yen (4.9% decrease); ordinary income of 1,450 million yen (87.4% decrease); and net loss of 3,698 million yen (net income of 5,886 million yen was posted for the same period of the previous fiscal year).

Since the results for the first quarter were generally in line with expectations, no changes have been made to the forecast of consolidated financial results for the first half ending September 30, 2013 and fiscal year ending March 31, 2014, which was announced on May 14, 2013.

Summary of financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2013
During the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014, the global economy remained uncertain due to concerns about the prolonged European government debt crisis as well as the slowdown in economic growth seen in China, although economic recovery is picking up steam in the United States. With regard to Japan, thanks to economic measures taken by the government which led to a rapid weakening of the yen and higher stock prices, Japan's business and consumer confidence showed signs of improvement.

Under such circumstances, following the completion of the acquisition of Aegis Group plc (hereinafter "Aegis") in March 2013, which marked a new beginning for the expanded Dentsu Group as a truly global player operating in 110 countries across the globe, the Group set a new medium-term management plan "Dentsu 2017 and Beyond" which starts from FY2013 and goes through to FY2017. The Group aims to become a next-generation agency network that provides unparalleled value through its unique capabilities, creating new marketing communications that go beyond the framework of existing advertising business. In addition to building a network that supports its clients' businesses worldwide, the Group will develop and provide integrated solutions that lead the digital age, as well as achieve sustainable growth and increase profitability in the Japanese market, the Group's strongest base.

From the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014, Aegis's results have been included in the Dentsu Group's Consolidated Statements of Income. As a result, for the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Group posted consolidated billings (net sales) of 514,229 million yen, an increase of 14.9% compared with the same period of the previous fiscal year, and gross profit of 122,882 million yen, an increase of 60.7%. From a seasonal perspective, the consolidated billings and gross profit for the first and third quarters tend to be lower than those for the second and fourth quarters, and since the amounts assigned to goodwill and intangible assets are amortized in equal proportions each quarter, for the first quarter the Group posted operating loss of 717 million yen (operating income of 9,571 million yen was posted for the same period of the previous fiscal year); ordinary income of 1,450 million yen, a decrease of 87.4%; and net loss of 3,698 million yen (net income of 5,886 million yen was posted for the same period of the previous fiscal year). Operating income before amortization of goodwill and intangible assets came to 10,032 million yen, a decrease of 4.9%. Operating income before amortization of goodwill and intangible assets comprises the operating income figure to which has been added the amortization of goodwill incurred through acquisitions (including the acquisition of Aegis) and other intangible assets.

Since the purchase price allocation relating to the acquisition of Aegis had not been completed by June 30, the last day of the first quarter, the goodwill that was amortized for the first quarter was the amount calculated on a provisional basis using the straight-line method over a period of 20 years.

Looking at the results by business segment, in the Advertising segment net sales of 501,221 million yen, an increase of 15.3% compared with the same period of the previous fiscal year; gross profit of 118,595 million yen, an increase of 68.2%; and segment loss of 652 million yen (segment income of 9,172 million yen was posted for the same period of the previous fiscal year) were posted. In the Information Services segment, net sales of 14,134 million yen, an increase of 0.4%; gross profit of 3,948 million yen, a decrease of 5.0%; and segment loss of 742 million yen (segment loss of 486 million yen was posted for the same period of the previous fiscal year) were posted. In the Other Business segment, net sales of 3,660 million yen, a decrease of 12.2%; gross profit of 872 million yen, a decrease of 8.4%; and segment income of 221 million yen, a decrease of 39.0%, were posted.

By geographic area, gross profit of 67,150 million yen, an increase of 6.3% compared with the same period of the previous fiscal year, and operating income of 9,507 million yen, an increase of 7.5%, were posted in Japan. In other countries, gross profit of 56,102 million yen, an increase of 320.1%, and operating loss of 10,078 million yen (operating income of 590 million yen was posted for the same period of the previous fiscal year) were posted.

From the 2013 fiscal year onward, gross profit has been specified as one of the Group's business management indicators. Accordingly, gross profit figures will be used in its disclosures of results by business segment and geographical area from the first quarter onward.

Regarding Dentsu Group companies with a December 31 closing date, including subsidiaries in countries other than Japan, their financial results for the three months from January 1 to March 31, 2013 are, as a general rule, incorporated in the consolidated financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Dentsu posted non-consolidated billings (net sales) of 350,246 million yen, an increase of 4.4% compared with the same period of the previous fiscal year; gross profit of 47,889 million yen, an increase of 7.2%; operating income of 8,060 million yen, an increase of 3.3%; ordinary income of 15,578 million yen, an increase of 20.1%; and net income of 10,619 million yen, an increase of 31.5%.

Reference: Scope of Consolidated Financial Results
As of June 30, 2013, the Dentsu Group includes 658 consolidated subsidiary companies and 56 affiliated companies accounted for by the equity method. 93 of these companies are located in Japan and 621 in countries other than Japan. By business segment, 692 of these companies fall into the Advertising segment, 16 into the Information Services segment, and 6 into the Other Business segment.

Outlook for the first half ending September 30, 2013 and the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014
Since the results for the first quarter were generally in line with expectations, no changes have been made to the forecast of consolidated financial results for the first half ending September 30, 2013 and fiscal year ending March 31, 2014, which was announced on May 14, 2013.

Cautionary statement with respect to forward-looking statements
These business results forecasts have been made by Dentsu on the basis of currently available information, and hence involve potential risks and uncertainties. Consequently, actual business results may differ from the forecasts due to changes in various factors.

NTRR Initiates Development on Prototype Horticultural Technology

SARASOTA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- As part of an ambitious strategy to gain market share in a medical marijuana (MMJ) sector forecast to reach $6 billion over the next five years, Neutra Corp. (OTCBB: NTRR) announced today that the first phase of development is now underway on a horticultural post-production system that could soon revolutionize the time and care needed to deliver medicinal cannabis to patients.

"In our extensive market research, this was an area that we immediately targeted for innovation," said NTRR CEO Sydney Jim. "We have a plan to make the post-production work on cut flowers and greens significantly faster and more efficient than what's being done currently."

Variations in the care and handling of plants can make it difficult for patients to accurately predict the benefits they will receive from cannabis from strain to strain and dispensary to dispensary. To solve this problem, NTRR formed a new joint venture with Vertigo Technologies to advance the development and marketing of innovative horticulture systems that could soon benefit a variety of plant-based businesses.

It's the next step in the company's plans to capture a share of the booming $1.7 billion medical marijuana (MMJ) market in the U.S. by delivering advanced technology to improve production quality and efficiency in the nascent industry. NTRR and Vertigo expect to deliver a working prototype within a short time frame.

Through its subsidiary, Cannabis Technologies, NTRR is working to help introduce the next wave of healthier, more efficient delivery systems to the ever-growing MMJ market. By providing innovative nutraceutical products and services such as new MMJ breakthroughs, Neutra Corp. plans to follow in the footsteps of other successful public companies including Cannabis Science, Inc. (OTCBB: CBIS), Medical Marijuana Inc. (OTCBB: MJNA) and Terra Tech Corp. (OTCBB: TRTC), delivering technological advancements in the cultivation and processing of cannabis in approved markets.

"We created the Logitech Wireless All-in-One Keyboard TK820 to combine everything you need to control and navigate your computer in one sleek keyboard," said Charlotte Johs, Logitech global vice president of brand development and portfolio for PC accessories. "This keyboard offers an innovative way to navigate, letting you type, touch and swipe with a single device."

The Logitech Wireless All-in-One Keyboard TK820 has an ultra-slim design that takes up less space on your desk because it connects wirelessly to your computer and streamlines navigation with a built-in touchpad.

The Logitech PerfectStroke^TM key system distributes typing pressure evenly across the key surfaces, so every keystroke is whisper quiet and feels smooth, even if you strike the edge of a key. The Incurve^TM keys have softly rounded edges to help your fingers glide across the keyboard, so typing feels fluid and comfortable, hour after hour.

The Logitech Wireless All-in-One Keyboard TK820 also comes with a tiny Logitech Unifying receiver, which uses Advanced 2.4 GHz connectivity to give you the reliability of a cord with the convenience of wireless. The wireless connection is robust and reliable, so you can place the keyboard in the most convenient position for you and still enjoy fast data transmission with virtually no delays or dropouts.

Dejour Records Positive Q2-2013 Cash Flow from Operations with 43% Revenue Increase

Initiates Production at Flagship Kokopelli NG&L Project

VANCOUVER, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Dejour Energy Inc. (NYSE MKT: DEJ / TSX: DEJ), an independent oil and natural gas exploration and production company operating in North America's Piceance Basin and Peace River Arch regions, has released its financial and operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. Summary of results are as follows:

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Dejour's audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 will be available to the public on SEDAR @ www.sedar.com, EDGAR @ www.sec.gov and will also be posted on the Company's website at www.dejour.com on August 14, 2013.

Dejour's operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 are summarized in the table below:

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Dejour is pleased to report the results of operations to shareholders for the second quarter of 2013.

During the quarter we:

1. Completed the drilling of three new wells to the Williams Fork formulation at Kokopelli in the eastern portion of the Piceance Basin of Colorado;

2. Increased production at the Drake/Woodrush Halfway "E" Pool north of Fort St. John, British Columbia to an average of 422 BOEPD consisting of 282 BOPD of oil and 843 Mcf/d of gas. Current quarter's oil production (BOPD) exceeded Q1 2012 production by 31%, a result of better operating efficiency at Drake/Woodrush and achieving "peak production" from the existing oil pool through implementation of a water flood;

3. Closed a $3.5 million loan facility with a Canadian institutional lender and applied $1.65 million of the net proceeds to repay an amount owing to the Company's Canadian bank.

Revenue increased 43% from $1.8 million in Q2 2012 to $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. This increase was primarily attributable to higher combined average realized prices and an increase in oil production during the current quarter compared with Q2 2012. The Company incurred a loss of $1.1 million during Q2 2013 of which $978,000 was represented by non-cash expense amounts such as amortization, depletion, and stock based compensation.

During Q2 2013, the Company generated $522,000 in cash flow from operating activities compared with a deficiency of $727,000 for the comparable period ended June 30, 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, cash flow from operating activities was $695,000 compared with a deficiency of $2,362,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Subsequent to June 30, 2013, the four wells drilled and completed in a joint venture with a U.S. drilling fund at Kokopelli were fracked and turned into the gas sales line. Cumulative IP rates will be made available for all four wells when the wells have substantially cleaned up. The Company has working interests ~20% BPO and ~35% APO in the four wells, with a continuing 71.5% WI in the balance of the acreage.

Colorado - The Evolution of the Mancos/Niobrara Shale Resource Play - Part III

In news releases dated March 28, 2013 and May 15, 2013, Dejour reported that a major U.S. exploration company drilled a Mancos/Niobrara shale discovery well at a vertical depth of about 10,200 ft. (with a horizontal leg of about 4,600 ft.) mid-way between our Grand Valley (Roan Creek) and Kokopelli leasehold interest in the Piceance Basin of Colorado. The company has announced publicly the discovery, extrapolated over its 180,000 acres in the Piceance Basin, could mean as much as 20-30 Tcf in recoverable natural gas reserves.

Dejour has approximately 12,000 net acres with "Niobrara/Mancos Shale" potential in Garfield County. Since the major U.S. exploration company's announcement of its discovery well, Dejour has added additional geophysical and geological staff and other resources to further our study of the Mancos/Niobrara potential on these lands.

Although the capital cost to drill these "shale" wells is considerably higher than conventional Williams Fork wells, the increased economics far outweigh the increase in costs. As a result, Dejour has concluded that there is a high probability the Mancos/Niobrara will be prevalent in the Kokopelli area of the eastern Piceance Basin in commercial quantities. Accordingly, the Company has initiated plans to build another drilling pad at Kokopelli specifically designed to accommodate deeper wells with a horizontal leg.

Dejour management fully expects this exciting shale play to become the focus of the Company's growth effort through 2014 as we de-risk this development and build the economies of the Kokopelli project. We look forward to reporting to shareholders as our financing, exploration, and development plans evolve from the planning to the execution stages.

Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information: This news release contains statements about oil and gas production and operating activities that may constitute "forward-looking statements" or "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable securities legislation as they involve the implied assessment that the resources described can be profitably produced in the future, based on certain estimates and assumptions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections that involve a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by Dejour and described in the forward- looking statements. These risks, uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited to, adverse general economic conditions, operating hazards, drilling risks, inherent uncertainties in interpreting engineering and geologic data, competition, reduced availability of drilling and other well services, fluctuations in oil and gas prices and prices for drilling and other well services, government regulation and foreign political risks, fluctuations in the exchange rate between Canadian and US dollars and other currencies, as well as other risks commonly associated with the exploration and development of oil and gas properties. Additional information on these and other factors, which could affect Dejour's operations or financial results, are included in Dejour's reports on file with Canadian and United States securities regulatory authorities. We assume no obligation to update forward-looking statements should circumstances or management's estimates or opinions change unless otherwise required under securities law.

BOE Presentation: Barrel of oil equivalent amounts have been calculated using a conversion rate of six thousand cubic feet of gas to one barrel of oil. The term "BOE" may be misleading if used in isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of one barrel of oil to six mcf of gas is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the well head. Total BOEs are calculated by multiplying the daily production by the number of days in the period.

The TSX does not accept responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this news release.
