Operational segment result was 3.9 MEUR (2.7 MEUR). Baltic had excellent 23% profitability. Finland had 12% profitability and Norway improved to 14% profitability. It is also positive that we reached 7% profitability in Sweden.

In the whole year 2014 net sales decreased by 8% to 122.7 MEUR. Operational segment profit 10.0 MEUR was almost at the previous year's level (10.3 MEUR).

Our business area and our customers' industries are under transformation due to the rapid technological changes and we are developing our operations and offering to be able to fulfill the changing needs of our customers also in the future. We are publishing today also a strategic update. Thanks to good order intake in the last few months, the order backlog of 49.6 MEUR was somewhat larger than last year (48.7 MEUR).

In the new business technology markets the customers' showed more active interest, but their needs were often still forming up. The Finnish market that was rather weak in the early part of the year, picked up a bit in the last few months. The order backlog slightly increased to 49.6 MEUR (48.7 MEUR).

REVIEW OF MARKET DEVELOPMENTS Changes in customers' demands in the current economic conditions have affected the company during the year. Customers' decision-making pace was rather slow and they also preferred to split large projects into smaller lots, which had negative impact on order backlog during the year. Order backlog has slightly increased compared to last year, thanks to good development in Baltic and in Sweden. Market development in the core business is twofold: some technology and solution areas grow well, but some see only very slow growth. E.g. demand for appliances and other next-generation data warehouse solutions is growing, while the demand for basic data warehouse solutions is not growing much. Affecto is shifting our offerings and resources to match the changing customer needs. For example, in Norway the company has had emphasis on next-generation data warehouses, while in Sweden and Finland it has had more focus on collaboration and digitalization solutions. The information technology markets and buying are building into several separate markets. IT buying continues to change, cloud and commodity-like services will grow and the roles of customers' IT organizations are changing. Price competition continues tight and the global service companies will continue to grow in this market. Small local companies can develop their competitiveness by specializing, for example into the new fields in analytics. At the same time new business technology markets are emerging, where information technology solutions and the information generated by them form an integral part of customer organizations' own products and services. From customers' perspective these solutions will be elemental for their business and will have close connection to their own competitiveness and profit. So, the decisions regarding these solutions will be made in proximity of or within the business itself. Business capabilities based on Internet of Things offer examples of this kind of solutions that may transform products and business models in various industries. Affecto aims to grow in these markets together with customers. BUSINESS REVIEW BY AREAS The group's business is managed through five country units. Finland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Baltic are also the reportable segments. The net sales in Finland decreased by 5% to 50.6 MEUR (53.2 MEUR). Operational segment result was 5.4 MEUR (6.9 MEUR) and profitability was 11%. Net sales decreased due to smaller sales of consultancy work. General mood is still cautious in Finland and customers are slow with their investment decisions, but customer activity picked up a bit toward the year-end. Order backlog is below last year's level. The net sales of Karttakeskus GIS business, reported as part of Finland, decreased by 3% to 11.9 MEUR (12.2 MEUR) and its profitability was good. The net sales in Norway were 25.0 MEUR (29.6 MEUR) and operational segment result was 2.0 MEUR (2.7 MEUR). Net sales decreased by 15% mainly due to smaller sales of consultant work. Profitability was 8%. Streamlining actions done at the beginning of the year have helped to decrease the cost base and have improved profitability toward the year-end. Amount of Norwegian employees decreased clearly during the year, while the usage of nearshore resources from Baltic grew. Order backlog is slightly above last year's level. The net sales in Sweden were 20.0 MEUR (23.2 MEUR) and operational segment result 0.3 MEUR (-0.2 MEUR). Net sales decreased by 14%, to which both the decreased amount of employees, decreased license sales and the weakened SEK have contributed. It is positive that after several loss-making years Sweden reached slightly positive profitability of 2%. Development actions in Sweden will continue and the company wants to be the leading Enterprise Information Management company also in this market. Order backlog is above last year's level. Although Sweden's profitability has developed positively and it made a positive result in 2014, there is still uncertainty regarding the pace of the development in Sweden. An impairment of 7.4 MEUR was made to the goodwill related to Sweden. The net sales in Denmark were 12.0 MEUR (15.4 MEUR) and operational segment result was 0.9 MEUR (1.9 MEUR). Net sales decreased by 22% mainly due to low resource utilization but also due to decrease in license sales. Profitability decreased to 7%. Competition in Denmark is tight. Order backlog is below last year's level. The net sales in Baltic (Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Poland, South Africa) were 19.0 MEUR (16.0 MEUR). Operational segment result was 2.9 MEUR (0.2 MEUR). Net sales increased by 19% and profitability increased to 15%. The Lithuanian public sector market has recovered slower than anticipated, as the preparations of new EU funded projects has progressed slowly. Euro conversion projects had positive impact on the Lithuanian market during the fall. Estonian market situation is normal. The insurance business is performing well. Order backlog is significantly above last year's level.

CHANGES IN GROUP STRUCTURE Fully owned subsidiary Affecto Management Oy was merged to its parent Affecto Plc on 31 December 2014. SHARES AND TRADING The company has one share series and all shares have similar rights. At the end of the review period Affecto Plc's share capital consisted of 22 450 745 shares. The company owned 867 219 treasury shares, approx. 3.9 % of the total amount of the shares. During the review period the highest share price was 4.62 euro, the lowest price 2.80 euro, the average price 3.12 euro and the closing price 2.93 euro. The trading volume was 5.8 million shares, corresponding to 26% of the number of shares at the end of the period. The market value of shares was 63.2 MEUR at the end of the period excluding the treasury shares. 2008C options' exercise period ended on 31 May 2014 and 132 141 new shares were subscribed with the 2008C options. SHAREHOLDERS The company had a total of 2 987 owners on 31 December 2014 and the foreign ownership was 15%. The list of the largest owners can be found in the company's web site. Information about the ownership structure and option programs is included as a separate section in the financial statements. The ownership of the board members, CEO and their controlled corporations totaled approx. 10.6%. According to the flagging announcement made on 21 May 2014, the ownership of Evli Pankki and funds managed by Evli Rahastoyhtiö has decreased below 5%. According to flagging announcements the ownership of Mika Laine has decreased below 5% on 17 October 2014 and the ownership of Lombard International Assurance S.A. has exceeded 5% on 17 October 2014. ASSESSMENT OF RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES Affecto's order backlog has traditionally been only for a few months, which decreases the reliability of longer-term forecasts. The changes in the general economic conditions and the operating environment of customers have direct impact in Affecto's markets. The uncertain economy may affect Affecto's customers negatively, and their slower investment decision making, postponing or cancellation of IT investments may have negative impact on Affecto. Slower decision making by customers may decrease the predictability of the business and may decrease the utilisation rate of resources. Affecto's balance sheet includes a material amount of goodwill. Goodwill has been allocated to cash generating units. Cash generating units, to which goodwill has been allocated, are tested for impairment both annually and whenever there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. Potential impairment losses may have material effect on reported profit and value of assets. Affecto's success depends also on good customer relationships. Affecto has a well-diversified customer base. In 2014 the largest customer generated 3% of Affecto's net sales, while the 10 largest together generated 17%. Although none of the customers is critically large for the whole group, there are large customers in various countries who are significant for local business in the country. Affecto sells third party software licenses as part of its solutions. Typically the license sales have most impact on the last month of each quarter and especially in the fourth quarter. This increases the fluctuation in net sales between quarters and increases the difficulty of accurately forecasting the quarters. Additionally the increase of cloud services and other similar market trends may affect the license sales negatively. Affecto had license sales of approx. 9 MEUR in 2014. Approximately 40% of Affecto's net sales is generated in Sweden and Norway, thus the development of the currencies of these countries (SEK and NOK) may have impact on Affecto's profitability. The main part of the companies' income and costs are within the same currency, which decreases the risks. EVENTS AFTER THE REVIEW PERIOD Hellen Wohlin Lidgard, the country manager for Sweden, has resigned from Affecto in January 2015 to be an entrepreneur. She will continue as the country manager until July 2015 at the latest. DIVIDEND PROPOSAL Distributable funds of the group parent company on 31 December 2014 are 60 434 767.73 euros, of which the distributable profit is 16 940 906.97 euros. Board of Directors proposes that from the financial year 2014 a dividend of 0.16 euros per share will be paid, a total of 3 453 364.16 euros with the outstanding number of shares at the end of the financial period, and the rest is carried forward to the retained earnings account. No material changes have taken place in respect of the company's financial position after the balance sheet date. The liquidity of the company is good and in the opinion of the Board of Directors proposed distribution of profit does not risk the liquidity of the company. FUTURE OUTLOOK Net sales and operating profit are estimated to grow in 2015. The company does not provide exact guidance for net sales or EBIT development, as single projects and timing of license sales may have large impact on quarterly sales and profit.
