"In view of our operations and strategy, the first half of 2012 can be considered successful. The progress we have made in several areas compared with the previous year show that the measures we have taken so far have been correct and effective. Our activities have improved our predictable profitability and we are on the road towards our strategic goals.
The corporate acquisition we published on 20 March 2012 has added zest to the first six months of the year, first in the form of negotiations and arrangements of the deal and then as integration work in the second quarter. We have proceeded in accordance with our goals in the integration work, and it continues as planned, or even ahead of plans in certain areas. The result from the second quarter is burdened the one line expenses from the quick and powerful integration work. First we have concentrated on the integration of technical internal functions
for instance in the areas of client support and systems and have partly completed the work. As for the integration and connectivity of the solutions, we have also succeeded well, and the organisational change from July has will speed up the process. The feedback we have received from our clients has been extremely encouraging and motivates us to continue our work with increased energy in the coming autumn.
Most of our units increased the turnover and improved their results on the previous year. In addition to the result of the corporate acquisition, Solteq also grew inorganically in terms of both turnover and result. The development of our client services and project business has been an essential factor behind the development of our business operations. Demand has been moderate in all our segments, but the economic uncertainty in Europe and in the rest of the world raises some questions concerning the second half of the year and the year 2013. The consequences of the turbulent financial policies in Europe are unpredictable, and therefore it is extremely difficult to prepare for them. We will do our best and plan our operations to be prepared for possible changes in the market and also listen to the needs of our clients with an attentive ear.
During the second half of the year, we will continue monitoring our financial situation carefully, and in view of integration, this still requires great accuracy and frequent assessments of the situation. We will regularly assess the impacts of our activities on our strategic goals in this respect as well. We expect to see benefits from the integration in the last quarter of the year at the earliest, and effectively not until 2013. We also believe that the integration work will be completed in the next six months.
In the second half of the year, we will continue, as expected, the implementation of our strategy and operative development measures. We will continue ensuring continuity for our clients by improving both our solutions and our own operational ability. We will look for methods to improve our predictable profitability in several different ways to be able to move forward on the current path.
We wish all our stakeholders a happy summer season!"

On 22 March 2012, Solteq acquired the entire capital stock of Aldata Solutions Plc's daughter company responsible for operations in Finland, Aldata Solution Finland Ltd. As a result of the corporate acquisition, Aldata Solution Finland Ltd became a daughter company entirely owned by Solteq Plc, and as of 30.3.2012, its trade name is registered as Solteq Retail Ltd.
The company offers software and related services to the retail industry. Its range of software is comprised of the Company's own software, whose product development is in Finland, and mediation products. Mediation products are order-supply chain management and optimisation products owned by the Aldata Group, which are offered in connection with the corporate acquisition based on agreed licence and distribution contracts, and Microsoft's ERP systems. At the end of 2011, Aldata Solution Finland Ltd had 77 employees. The company was merged into the Solteq Group from 1.3.2012.
