Significant transactions that are not part of the normal course of business, infrequently occurring events or valuation items that do not affect cash flow are treated as adjustment items affecting comparability between reporting periods. According to Tecnotree's definition, such items include, for example, impairment of assets and the remeasurement to fair value, sale of assets, costs of closing down offices, restructuring measure and personnel related redundancy costs.
With reference to the new guidelines on alternative performance measures issued by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), Tecnotree uses the alternative performance measures "adjusted operating result" and "adjusted result for the period". These measures are defined in the above paragraph.

CEO Padma Ravichander: Robust first half despite COVID-19 challenges
Tecnotree has achieved compelling growth across key performance metrics during the first half of 2021. Tecnotree's Digital BSS Suite continues to generate healthy excitement across markets, leading to a record order book in the last 8 years. Tecnotree, despite the Covid impact, continues to cautiously invest in enhancing its products and delivery capabilities, tap new sales channels, improve its competitive position while remaining highly efficient to deliver a strong financial result.
While the world continues to combat COVID-19 related challenges, Tecnotree too has faced similar challenges, especially in its largest development center i.e. India, owing to the second wave caused by the delta variant. Although Tecnotree is taking necessary actions and mitigation steps, we believe that if a significant third wave occurs, this could affect deliveries in the second half of this year and thereby may affect revenue. We are also taking all precautions and providing all possible assistance and safeguards to all our employees globally, to reduce its overall impact.

Revenue in the second quarter was EUR 16.7 million and EUR 27.9 million during the first half of the year, witnessing 16.5% growth from last year.

1. Accounting principles for the half year report
This half-year report has been prepared in accordance with the international financial reporting standard IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The formulas for calculating the key figures presented and the accounting principles for the half-year report are the same as the principles published in the 2020 Annual Report.
2. Segment information
The operating segments under IFRS 8 reported by Tecnotree are the geographical areas, which are Europe & Americas (Europe and North, Central and South America) and MEA & APAC (the Middle East and Africa, Asia Pacific). This is because their results are monitored separately in the company's internal financial reporting. Tecnotree's chief operating decision-maker, as referred to in IFRS 8, is the Group's management board.
Net sales and the result for the operating segments are presented based on the location of customers. The result for the operating segments includes the costs that can be allocated to the segments, being costs of sales and marketing, customer service and delivery functions, administration, product management, as well as product development. Costs for depreciation, taxes and financial items are not allocated to the segments.
