Qt business developed as planned during the reporting period, with net sales
showing growth and profitability improving towards the period end. At the end
of the second quarter, Qt business profitabilitywas very good. With Qt
business, the proportion of the company's product business and international
business grew significantly compared to the same period in the previous year.
They now form a significant portion of the company's entire business. 

After the reporting period, on 8 August 2012, Digia signed a contract with
Nokia Corporation for the acquisition of Qt software technology and the related
business. Digia expects this acquisition to drive positive development of the
Qt business in the future. 

On the whole, however, Digia's net sales showed a marked decrease year-on-year.
This is attributable to the major reduction in demand for mobile contract
engineering services that began in Q2/2011. During the reporting period, the
downward trend was even stronger than anticipated and taxed the company's
profitability, especially in the second quarter. 

Since Q2/2011, Digia has taken consistently and successfully adapted its
business and organisation to match the changed business environment. 

Despite the adjustment measures, the decline in net sales has inevitably led to
a proportional increase in fixed costs, holding back profitability development
in the reporting period. Besides challenges in Digia's remaining contract
engineering business, other factors eroding profitability included the
investments made in international business. 

Digia reiterates its forecast for the remainder of 2012 and expects to see its
operational efficiency improve and profitability rise to a good level during
the second half.

MARKETS AND DIGIA'S BUSINESS

Deceleration of economic growth in several Eurozone countries is reining in
Finnish exports and total output. Customer companies, which see information
technology as an element that can facilitate greater operational efficiency and
growth, are nonetheless pursuing their projects and initiating new ones. In
some cases, economic uncertainty has lengthened decision-making processes and
project schedules have been delayed. Customers are also experiencing growing
cost pressures, which is beginning to reflect on their purchase decisions. 

In terms of human resources, the situation is somewhat conflicting: On the one
hand, a large number of experts were released onto the job market from various
contract engineering projects; on the other, there is a shortage of experienced
architecture and business experts, which is causing lengthened recruitment
processes and pressure for rising labour cost. 

Although the introduction of the new organisation at the beginning of 2012 went
smoothly and according to plan, in some areas operational efficiency
enhancement measures still continue. 

Growing cost pressures on customers had a major impact on demand for contract
engineering services in the second quarter. Demand for ERP systems and other
operational systems was reasonable during the reporting period. 

The Qt business increased its net sales, with operations progressing according
to plan during the period. Profitability also improved as expected, as the
period progressed. At the end of the period, the profitability level was very
good. 

In Digia's Russian unit, business development efforts are more sharply focused
on ERP system deliveries to local customers, especially in the trade sector's
value chain. In addition, the unit provides near shore resource services to
Finnish business units. Local business continued to grow during the period, as
new customer relationships were established. 

Digia's Chinese unit shifted its focus even more towards local business
development. The unit's capacity is also used to provide off shore services to
the Finnish business units. 

NET SALES

Digia's consolidated net sales for the reporting period were EUR 50.6 (65.7)
million, down 23.1 per cent on the same period in 2011. 

The decrease was due to a sharp fall in demand for mobile contract engineering
services after the end of the comparison period and during the reporting
period. On the other hand, net sales from the Qt business grew considerably
year-on-year and was EUR 7.0 million for the reporting period. 

During the reporting period, the product business accounted for EUR 15.1
million (EUR 11.9 million) or 29.9 per cent (18.2 per cent) of consolidated net
sales. 

International operations accounted for EUR 10.6 (5.7) million, or 21.0 (8.7)
per cent of consolidated net sales. 

Digia's consolidated net sales for the second quarter were EUR 24.5 (32.4)
million, down 24.3 per cent on the same period in 2011. 

In the second quarter, product business accounted for EUR 8.1 (7.1) million of
consolidated net sales, or 33.1 (21.9) per cent. 

International operations accounted for EUR 5.4 (3.2) million of consolidated
net sales in the second quarter, or 22.2 (9.9) per cent. 

PROFIT PERFORMANCE AND PROFITABILITY

Digia's consolidated operating profit before extraordinary items for the
reporting period was EUR 2.7 (2.9) million, down 7.3 per cent year-on-year.
Profitability (EBIT %) before extraordinary items was 5.3 (4.4) per cent.
Extraordinary items included a EUR 0.6 million restructuring provision
associated with the reorganisation of the Group Management Team carried out as
part of the operational efficiency improvement. 

Digia Group's operating profit after extraordinary items amounted to EUR 2.1
(-25.6) million. Profitability (EBIT %) after extraordinary items was 4.1
(-39.0) per cent. 

Digia's consolidated operating profit before extraordinary items in the second
quarter was EUR 1.3 (0.6) million, up 100.3 per cent year-on-year.
Profitability (EBIT %) before extraordinary items was 5.1 (1.9) per cent. 

Digia Group's operating profit after extraordinary items amounted to EUR 0.7
(-27.9) million. Profitability (EBIT %) after extraordinary items was 2.8
(-86.2) per cent. 

The company's operating costs and profitability were affected by investments in
the international product business, a relative increase in the proportion of
fixed operating costs, and the additional costs arising from higher personnel
turnover. Moreover, the weaker than expected profitability of the remaining
contract engineering business taxed performance in the second quarter. 

Consolidated earnings before tax for the period totalled EUR 1.5 (-26.2)
million, and net profit was EUR 1.1 (-24.8) million. Consolidated earnings
before tax for the second quarter were EUR 0.4 (-28.1) million, and net profit
totalled EUR 0.3 (-26.3) million. 

Consolidated earnings per share for the period, before extraordinary items,
were EUR 0.08 (0.12). Consolidated earnings per share after extraordinary items
came to EUR 0.05 (-1.20).  Consolidated earnings per share, before
extraordinary items, for the second quarter were EUR 0.04 (0.05). Consolidated
earnings per share after extraordinary items for the second quarter came to EUR
0.01 (-1.27). 

The Group's net financial expenses for the reporting period were EUR 0.6 (0.5)
million and for the second quarter EUR 0.3 (0.2) million. 

FINANCIAL POSITION AND EXPENDITURE

At the end of the reporting period, Digia Group's consolidated balance sheet
total stood at EUR 81.8 million (12/2011: EUR 87.8 million), and the equity
ratio was 50.9 (12/2011: 47.8) per cent. Net gearing was 25.5 (12/2011: 34.5)
per cent. Period-end cash and cash equivalents totalled EUR 8.4 (12/2011: 8.2)
million. 

Interest-bearing liabilities amounted to EUR 18.4 (12/2011: 21.9) million.
These consisted of EUR 17.0 million in loans from financial institutions and
EUR 1.4 million in financial leasing liabilities. 

The Group's cash flow from operations for the period was positive by EUR 6.5
(3.6) million, cash flow from investments was negative by EUR 1.2 (1.4)
million, and cash flow from financing was negative by EUR 5.1 (6.6) million.
Cash flow from financing was negatively affected by the repayment of loans for
a total sum of EUR 3.0 million, as well as the payment of EUR 2.1 million in
dividends. 

The Group's investments in fixed assets during the reporting period totalled
EUR 0.3 (1.4) million. Acquisitions of tangible fixed assets totalled EUR 0.2
(0.9) million. 

Return on investment (ROI) for the period was 7.4 (-67.8) per cent, and return
on equity (ROE) was 5.5 (-99.2) per cent. 

The Group carries out quarterly impairment testing of goodwill and intangible
assets with an indefinite useful life. 

The table below shows the distribution of goodwill and values subject to
testing at the end of the reporting period:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Present values were calculated for a five-year forecast period based on the
following assumptions: Net sales and operating profit for the first two
quarters of the forecast period according to the confirmed figures, and for the
following two quarters according to budget. As of the beginning of 2013, annual
net sales growth of 3 per cent, operating profit of 10 per cent, and a discount
rate of 8.9 per cent are forecast. Cash flows after the forecast period are
estimated by means of cash-flow extrapolation, applying the assumptions given
above. 

According to a completed sensitivity analysis, the estimated goodwill requires
net sales to remain at the current level, with profitability at 4.4 per cent,
or net sales growth of 7.0 per cent with profitability at 0.1 per cent. The
management sees no risk of goodwill impairment. 



HUMAN RESOURCES, MANAGEMENT, AND ADMINISTRATION

At the end of the period, the total number of Group personnel was 997,
representing a decrease of 178 employees, or 15.1 per cent since the end of
2011 (2011: 1,175). During the reporting period, the number of employees
averaged 1,045, a decrease of 408 employees or 28.1 per cent from the 2011
average (2011: 1,453). 

Employees by function at the end of the period:

Business units                 96 %
-----------------------------------
Administration and management   4 %
-----------------------------------

As of the end of the period, 162 employees were working abroad (12/2011: 161).

The Digia Plc Annual General Meeting of 13 March 2012 re-elected Robert Ingman,
Kari Karvinen, Pertti Kyttälä and Tommi Uhari as members of the Board. Päivi
Hokkanen, Seppo Ruotsalainen and Leena Saarinen were elected as new members. At
the organisation meeting of the Board, Pertti Kyttälä was elected Chairman of
the Board and Robert Ingman Vice Chairman. 

Juha Varelius has been Digia Plc's President and CEO since 1 January 2008.

In June 2012, Anja Wasenius became Digia's acting CFO.

Ernst & Young Oy, authorised public accountants, are the Group's auditors, with
Authorised Public Accountant Heikki Ilkka as the principal auditor. 

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Short-term uncertainties are related to any major changes occurring in the
company's core business areas. 

The Eurozone debt crisis and the risk of economic recession may affect
customers' investment decisions and liquidity, and thereby the company's sales
and profits. There have already been signs of the effect of increased
uncertainty on customers' investment decisions, and some planned projects have
been delayed. 

Furthermore, as the size of customer projects grows, risks related to the
projects and profitability management are increasing. 

Risks and their management are described on the company's website at
www.digia.com. 

FUTURE PROSPECTS

The company's main objective for 2012 is to grow the share of the scalable
product business. The main cornerstone of the company's operations remains the
maintenance of high profitability and a positive cash flow. 

The company expects the IT market to remain at roughly the previous year's
level in 2012. However, risks associated with the Eurozone debt crisis and
general inflation may affect demand for IT services and the development of
business profitability. Slightly greater uncertainty is therefore related to
the economic prospects for 2012. 

The company expects demand for its ERP systems, operational systems and
integration services to grow during the rest of the year. 

Measures will be completed to improve the efficiency of the contract
engineering business and to adapt operations to the current market conditions. 

The company will continue to seek expansion in the growing Russian market,
especially through its Business Intelligence solutions, ERP systems and
complementary products and services, and particularly within the trade and
logistics customer segments. 

The company plans to align its Chinese operations to correspond even better to
local sales and international delivery contracts. As part of this realignment,
the Beijing sales unit will also support Qt business sales. 

The company expects the Qt business to retain a healthy profit level, and net
sales from the business to show continued positive development for the rest of
the year. 

On the whole, Digia expects to improve its operational efficiency and to raise
its profitability to a healthy level during the second half. 

OTHER EVENTS DURING THE REPORTING PERIOD

Convening on 13 March 2012, the Digia Plc Annual General Meeting (AGM) approved
the financial statements for 2011, released the Board members and the CEO from
liability, determined Board emoluments, resolved to keep the number of Board
members at seven, and elected the Board of Directors for the new term. 

With regard to profit distribution for 2011, the AGM approved the Board's
proposal to make a repayment of capital of EUR 0.10 per share to all
shareholders listed on the shareholder list maintained by Euroclear Finland Ltd
on the reconciliation date of 16 March 2012. The date for the repayment of
capital was set at 23 March 2012. 

The AGM granted the following authorisations to the Board:

Authorisation of the Board of Directors to decide on buying back own shares
and/or accepting them as collateral 

The AGM authorised the Board to decide on the buyback and/or acceptance as
collateral of no more than 2,000,000 shares in the company. This buyback can
only be executed by means of the company's unrestricted equity. The Board shall
decide on how these shares are to be bought. Own shares may be bought back in
disproportion to the holdings of the shareholders. The authorisation also
includes acquisition of shares through public trading organised by NASDAQ OMX
Helsinki Oy in accordance with the rules and instructions of NASDAQ OMX
Helsinki and Euroclear Finland Ltd, or through offers made to shareholders.
Shares may be acquired in order to improve the company's capital structure, to
fund acquisitions or other business transactions, for offering share-based
incentive schemes, to sell on, or to be annulled. The shares must be acquired
at the market price in public trading. This authorisation supersedes that
granted by the AGM of 16 March 2011 and is valid for 18 months - i.e. until 13
September 2013. 

Authorising the Board of Directors to decide on a share issue and granting of
special rights 

The AGM authorised the Board to decide on an ordinary or bonus issue of shares
and the granting of special rights (as defined in Section 1, Chapter 10 of the
Limited Liability Companies Act) in one or more instalments, as follows: The
issue may total, at a maximum, 4,000,000 shares. The authorisation applies both
to new shares and to treasury shares held by the company. By virtue of the
authorisation, the Board has the right to decide on share issues and the
granting of special rights, in deviation from the pre-emptive subscription
rights of the shareholders (a directed issue). The authorisation may be used to
fund or complete acquisitions or other business transactions, for offering
share-based incentive schemes, to develop the company's capital structure, or
for other purposes. The Board was authorised to decide on all terms related to
the share issue or special rights, including the subscription price, its
payment in cash or (partly or wholly) in capital contributed in kind or its
being written off against the subscriber's receivables, and its recognition in
the company's balance sheet. This authorisation supersedes that granted by the
AGM of 16 March 2011 and is valid for 18 months - i.e. until 13 September 2013.
