"We have noticed an improvement in market conditions since Q1, where demand was relatively weak. The Informatic business area is continuing to report good sales and earnings trends. Demand in the Design & Development business area has gradually improved and a new business area manager will start in September. The Automotive R&D business area has been hit by delays in a number of major projects. The project with the global German automotive manufacturer, signed for in Q1, engaged close to 100 individuals at the end of the quarter."

Income and results Second quarter

The operating profit fell by SEK 37 million and amounted to SEK 66 million (103), giving an operating margin of 5.3% (7.8).

Last year, major revenue recognition of SEK 5 million was reported for a project in the Automotive R&D business area.

The business areas reported the following operating margins: Automotive R&D 3.7% (5.9), Design & Development 4.2% (9.9) and Informatic 11.5% (10.3).

Financial position

The operating cash flow from current activities was SEK

Investments in hardware, licences, office supplies and equipment, amounted to SEK 11 million (9). Shareholders' equity amounted to SEK 592 million (511) and the equity/ assets ratio was 46% (41).

Earnings per market Jan-June 2013 Group Sales per industry Jan-June 2013

Automotive R&D

The business area, after a weak start to the year, reported improved demand in Q2. Overall sales amounted to SEK 685 million (727). Sales fell organically by 4%. The fall is mainly attributable to poorer demand in Q1.

The operating profit fell by SEK 18 million, amounting to SEK 25 million (43), giving an operating margin of 3.7% (5.9). The poorer result is attributable to poorer demand and delays in a number of major projects. The business area also took measures in Q1 in the form of staff cuts in Sweden, burdening results by SEK 3 million. The operating profit for Q1 2012 also included revenue recognition of SEK 5 million reported for a major project.

The global automotive industry is reporting healthy demand, while the Swedish automotive industry has cut purchases of product development services.

A new agreement was signed in Q1 with a major German automotive manufacturer for developing new architecture for an existing car model. At the end of the quarter the project engaged close to 100 individuals and by the beginning of 2014 will engage around 150 individuals, of whom around 40 in Germany and 110 in Sweden.

growth with improved results in the UK. The business in Brazil has extended its customer base and extended existing contracts with the global automotive manufacturers in the country. Supplies from India to customers in Europe have contributed the positive sales trend.

The business area has established itself as a development partner, well positioned for increasing sales on the global automotive market, where demand remains good.

Design & Development

The business area, mainly active in Sweden, has noticed reduced demand from certain customers over the first half of the year. A gradual improvement in demand was however reported in Q2.

Sales amounted to SEK 322 million (397). Organic growth fell by 14%. The divisions in product and production development are continuing to report a drop in demand. The PEAQ (Project, Engineering and Quality) division reported an improved operating profit.

The operating profit amounted to SEK 14 million (39), giving an operating margin of 4.2% (9.9). The main negative affect on results was the drop in demand. The business area also introduced measures in Q1 in the form of staff cuts, negatively affecting results by SEK 3 million.

The PEAQ division reported greater interest for its in-house developed XLPM project methodology and its offer in the area of quality assurance.

The division divested its pharmaceutical development business on 1 April, affecting 6 staff.

Olof Christensson has been appointed as the new business area manager and will take up his position in mid-September.

Uncertainty on the market has meant that some customers are delaying their investments, negatively affecting workloads over the short-term. It is estimated however that customers' development needs will remain strong and the business area believes that demand will gradually improve.

About Design & Development

Customers include ABB, Alstom, AstraZeneca, Bombardier, Ericsson, Fortum, General Electric, Getinge, Husqvarna, Metso, Rolls-Royce Marine, Saab, Siemens and Vattenfall.

Informatic

The business area has reported healthy sales and earnings trends over the period. Sales amounted to SEK 234 million (202) with organic growth of 16%. A significant contributory factor to this growth is ongoing deliveries to the Chinese customer Qoros Auto. The operating profit improved by SEK 6 million, amounting to SEK 27 million (21). The operating margin amounted to 11.5% (10.3). Of the business area's overall sales nearly half come from markets outside Sweden.

Activities in the UK progressed well, in terms of sales growth, improved results and more customers. Since the start of the partnership with Jaguar Land Rover, deliveries have gradually increased and now involve over 100 people. From Q4 this year involvement is expected to slightly fall and instead involve around 80 people.

The business reports continued improved results in Sweden with two new long-term partnerships signed in Q2 with companies in the engineering industry. Work is fully underway in one of these partnerships. The other is expected to gradually increase and be fully manned by Q4. Both partnerships will use the business area's FOBO solution, where offices in Sweden will act as the front office and the office in Hungary will act as the back office. Around 25 individuals are expected to be engaged in both partnerships.

Sales of the first car model from Qoros Auto are planned for the autumn and the business area's involvement in developing owner and aftermarket information is at its peaq level. This involvement is planned to diminish, to engage around 15 individuals less from Q4, adapting it to the expected level of demand.

The acquisition of the German Comet companies in Q4 2012, now called Semcon, was integrated over the period into the business area's activities. Integration costs and structural changes to the German activities are also expected to negatively impact results in Q3.

The business area expects continued high potential for growth in all markets where the business area is currently active.

Accounting principles

Semcon follows the IFRS standards and principles as adopted by the EU (IFRIC). This report has been produced in accordance with IAS 34. In accordance with the statements given in the Annual Report 2012, Note 2, concerning new accounting principles for 2013, a number of new standards and IFRIC statements have been included from 1 January 2013. The revised IAS 19 "Remuneration to employees" has been applied from 1 January 2013. The effect on Semcon is that the corridor method is no longer applied and instead all current profits and losses are reported in 'other comprehensive income' as they arise. The initial effect of SEK 0.9 million has been reported directly in other comprehensive income. Previous reports have not been recalculated, as the effect is marginal. Other changes had no effect on the Group's accounts over the period. Otherwise, the same accounting principles and calculation methods have been applied in this report as in the latest annual report.

Events after the end of the period

No significant events have taken place since the end of the period.

Outlook
