CEO Repe Harmanen:

"The third quarter was operationally and financially in accordance with our forecasts and our positive performance continued in relation to last year. Our sales were at the previous year's level. The improvement of profitability has been successful and in accordance with our plans. After nine months, we are able to maintain our performance, but we still have work ahead in the upcoming periods as relates to the specified level set forth in the strategy. Our results as compared to the previous quarter and on a cumulative basis have improved and we have maintained our predicted level of earnings.

The level of earnings and improvement are based on improved monitoring, risk management, as well as the effects of the first cost-saving measures. It was encouraging to note effect of the implemented measures on our business operations. It creates good faith in our operations for the coming months and years. I do not think that we have yet achieved major breakthroughs. We have been successful in enhancing our situation with well-planned work and small steps, improvements and activities with our long term customers and employees. Long-term and trustworthy customer relationships are a solid basis for everything we do.

The year's theme of "Forecasted Profitability" can be viewed as working and we want to keep this theme in front and as part of our decision making and operations. It's important to keep focus on simple and basic things and actions also in the future.

Demand in our business areas has remained at normal levels throughout the fiscal year. Our current predictions for the end of the year concerning operations correspond to our earlier projections. The current turbulent situation on the European financial markets raises questions on the future. Due this we have reviewed and attempted to identify factors that may impact our business areas directly or indirectly and taken necessary planning steps at this stage. We want to be ready if the situation requires us to react. So far we do not anticipate any change at the level of operations for this year but, as always, predictions - especially relating to the distant future - are difficult.

We have advanced our new strategy in accordance with our plans. Parts of the strategic programs have progressed more slowly than expected, and some on the other hand faster than predicted. During the summer, we have also gotten the first new business openings in accordance with our strategy. During the quarter we have refined and added measures in a few strategic areas in order to speed up implementation. We have also sought to speed up and streamline operations through the announced organizational change to better align our

operating model with our strategy. As of the beginning of 2012, Solteq Plc's reported segments are the Enterprise Resource Planning and Financial Management Solutions and Value Added Solutions for Enterprise Resource Planning.

Overall, I feel the situation to date this year is even good in some parts. We see reasonable demand but at the same time the general uncertainty creates additional challenges for the realization of growth. We will win by rigorously focusing on our operations, strategy and good client relationships.

We will continue and focus on our operational activities as well as the implementation of our strategy.

Happy autumn to all of our stakeholders!"
