CEO/Managing Director’s commentary
==> picture [721 x 136] intentionally omitted <==
Fiscal 2012 experienced a continuation of the unstable economic circumstances world wide:

Political and sovereign instability internationally continued especially in the EEC
-
Resulting in heightened nervousness for customer’s major capital expenditure programmes resulting in a longer sale and evaluation cycle
-
New customers are far more risk averse
-
The continuation of historically high values for the $A has resulted in lower revenues when designated in $A and a higher cost to serve for Hansen
