The figures presented in this half-year financial report are not audited. Last year's corresponding period in parentheses. Renewable Energy segment, consisting of the operations of the windmill park construction and construction design company Suvic Oy is fully consolidated in the Group's financial statements from 1 April 2021 onwards. The non-controlling interest (49%) is presented as a separate line item in the income statements and balance sheet.

Dovre Group's net sales in 2022 is expected to be more than EUR 185 million and the operating profit (EBIT) is expected to be between EUR 6.5 million and EUR 7.5 million.
Favorable market environment supported our growth in the first half of 2022. Our net sales increased by 76.5% to EUR 95.1 million and our operating profit more than doubled to EUR 3.4 (1.6) million. The second quarter was the first directly comparable quarter after the Suvicacquisition, and during it comparable year-on-year organic net sales growth was 38.4% and operating profit growth was 112.5%. I am delighted to see all our three business segments growing and delivering profitable operating results in the first half of the year.
Approximately 75% of our H1 year-on year growth derives from our Renewable Energy segment, which consists of a majority of Suvic Oy's business that was acquired in March 2021. The segment has growth rapidly, and in H1 2022 Suvic has been involved in building eight different windmill parks in Finland, of which some of the largest projects will continue also in 2023.
Activity levels were high also in our Project Personnel and Consulting businesses. Increased demand for our services, in Norway, supported these segments' growth. In Project Personnel in Norway, we secured in May, together with our partners, a new frame agreement with Aibel AS, a leading service company within the oil, gas, and offshore wind industries. In addition, several existing clients in Project Personnel and Consulting used their options to extend agreements in 2022. In Consulting Finland, the Proha entity has had high activity and the strengthening of our operations with eSite develops according to plan.
The good development in our operations is an outcome our consultants' ability to meet and exceed our clients' expectations. For this, I warmly thank all our employees.
At the same time as our operating environment supports our growth, it continues to possess several concerns, such as the current geopolitical situation, high inflation, and high oil prices. However, as stated in connection of our profit guidance update on August 2, we expect the demand for Dovre's services to be solid also in the second half of the year.
In mid to long-term, the demand for energy is forcing governments and the private sector to seek new energy-efficient solutions, which we believe will lead to an increasing demand in all our business areas. We intend to further expand our services in the energy sector. The focus of all our operations is on profitable growth, ensuring the best professionals for our clients' projects and maintaining high customer satisfaction in order to stay ahead of our industry's tight competition.

In Q2, Dovre Group's net sales increased by 38.4% to EUR 47.3 (34.2) million. Most of the growth, approximately 75%, was due to the Renewable Energy business, but markets developed favorably in the two other business segments as well. Q2 is the first direct comparable quarter for net sales as Suvic was acquired 31 March 2021.
Project Personnel accounted for 47 (54) %, Consulting for 10 (13) % and Renewable Energy for 43 (33) % of the Group's net sales.
Project Personnel's net sales increased by 20.2% to EUR 22.4 (18.6) million. The demand remained at a high level particularly in Norway. Net sales in Consulting increased by 5.2%, totaling EUR 4.6 (4.4) million. Renewable Energy's net sales increased by 81.6% to EUR 20.3 (11.2) million. The growth was driven by the launch of several new windmill park projects after the comparison period.
In January–June, Dovre Group's net sales increased by 76.5% to EUR 95.1 (53.9) million with Renewable Energy representing approximately 75% of the growth. In H1 2021, Renewable Energy is included in-group figures from 1 April 2021 onwards.
Project Personnel accounted for 47 (63) %, Consulting for 9 (16) % and Renewable Energy for 43 (21) % of the Group's net sales.

Project Personnel's net sales increased by 32.5% to EUR 45.1 (34.1) million driven by favorable market development especially in Norway. Net sales for Consulting increased by 3.8%, totaling EUR 9.0 (8.6) million. Renewable Energy segment has grown rapidly with the launch of new windmill park projects after the 2021 comparison period, and the segment's net sales in January– June totaled 41.0 million euros (11.1 in April–June 2021).

Year-on-year fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates had minor impact on the Group's net sales in the first half of 2022. At constant currencies, net sales would have increased by 75.1% year-on-year in H1 2022 instead growing by 76.5%.

Dovre Group's Renewable Energy business has stronger seasonality than the other two businesses because most of its projects are carried out during the summer months. As the segments fixed costs spread evenly throughout the year, its operating profit is seasonally at its lowest in Q1 and at its highest in Q3.
The Project Personnel and Consulting businesses are carried out more evenly during the year with limited seasonal variations.
In the Project Personnel business area, the Group's most significant risks include the cyclicality of its clients' business. Market developments in Norway are particularly important for Project Personnel due to the business area's strong position in the Norwegian market. In addition, expansion into new client segments requires expenditure and includes risks. The business area's other challenges are found in maintaining its competitiveness and profitability. The Project Personnel business is project-based by nature, thus adding an element of uncertainty to forecasting. From time to time, there might be a local dependence on one major project or client. Dovre Group is responsible for the work performed by its consultants. However, the company has no overall responsibility for project delivery.

In the Consulting business area, general economic uncertainty does not have as direct an impact on the demand for the Group's services. This is mainly due to the fact that one of the Group's main clients, the Norwegian public sector, aims to invest counter-cyclically. Project delivery involves minor risks due to both clients and the Group's own personnel, such as project delays or loss of key personnel.
In the Renewable Energy business area, Suvic has in its normal operations various contractual risks depending on the differences in scope of work for each. These risks are mitigated through performance and various guarantees and insurances.
Dovre Group holds a minority share in SaraRasa Bioindo Pte. Ltd. (Bioindo), a company that produces pellets from wood residue. Bioindo's production unit is in Indonesia and is thus exposed to high country risk. Other significant risks include risks relating to commercial agreements, especially feedstock purchase and end-product sale agreements.
The Group's reporting currency is the euro. The Group's most important functional currencies are the Norwegian crown, the Canadian dollar, the Singaporean dollar, and the US dollar. Although the Group's sales and corresponding expenses are mainly in the same currency, currency fluctuations can affect the Group's net sales and operating result. Foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities can also result in foreign exchange gains or losses.
In addition to the above, the current geopolitical situation, high inflation, and high energy prices is also adding risk to our business.
On February 3, 2022, Suvic Oy announced a significant turn-key construction project to build Kalistanneva windmill park. The contract consists of building the infrastructure for 30 windmills, including roads, lifting platforms, foundations, a 33/110 kV power station and 33 kV internal grid ground works. The work commenced in April 2022 and is expected to be completed by December 2023.
On February 10, 2022, Suvic announced the signing of a significant turn-key construction project to build the Matkussaari wind farm. Together with the previously announced Kalistanneva wind farm, the two projects are called Viiatti, with a combined capacity of 313.5 MW. The Matkussaari contract consists of building the infrastructure for 27 windmills, including roads, lifting platforms, foundations, a 33/110 kV power station and 33 kV internal grid ground works. The installed capacity will be 148,5 MW. The work commenced in April 2022 and is expected to be mainly completed by December 2023. The last task to be performed during 2024 is connecting the 33 kV cabling to the windmills.
On May 2, 2022, Dovre Group announced that it has secured, together with its partners Engineering Consultants Norway and Future Technology, a frame agreement with Aibel AS in Norway. The scope of work is Consultancy Services and includes hire of temporary personnel

within project/multidiscipline, construction, commissioning, supply chain, economy, ICT and administrative disciplines. The frame agreement is valid for 2 years with option to extend the agreement 3 times by 2 years, i.e. maximum 8 years.
Dovre Group gave a positive profit warning on August 2, 2022, and raised its net sales and EBIT guidance for the year 2022. The reason for raising the guidance is that the demand for Dovre's services is expected to continue solid in the second half of the year. The guidance issued on August 2, 2022, is repeated at the beginning of this Half-year financial statement release.
