ILARI KOSKELO, CEO: In the first half of 2008, we restructured the company's Board of Directors, the operational management and the organization. Due to these development expenses, the key figures for the full year of 2008 do not give an indicative picture of the present state of the Company. In our opinion, a more current picture is given by looking at the key figures of the second half of 2008, which improved significantly compared to second half of 2007. The operating result in July - December 2008 was EUR 1.0 million (0.2) and net result 1.0 (-0.6). The cash flow from operations turned positive and was EUR 2.4 million (-0.4) for the same period. The cash was used for investments and debt payback. Positive developments in several areas increased the operating profit. The Group administrative costs and the losses of the Camako division halved and the result of the Dovre division was still growing. We would like to give special credit to two individual managers: Mr. Mike Critch and Mr. Timo Saros. Mr. Critch manages the U.S. and Canadian operations of Dovre and exceeded his budget targets in all areas, the profit margin in Canada being 7.9% of net sales. We try to learn from Mr. Critch how he does it, so we can duplicate his operating profits in other divisions of the company. Under Mr. Saros' management, the formerly unprofitable Camako reached the budgeted break-even level in the last quarter of 2008. Camako shows significant ability to improve its result even in the future. The net result of Proha is positively affected by unrealized financial income due to fluctuations in currency exchange rates that we do not expect to reoccur in the results for 2009. At the end of 2008, we separated the Boards of Directors of Proha and Dovre because it better reflects the Group's operating structure and provides cost savings at the Group level. For 2009 the main goals are to increase the profit margin of the Norwegian operations of Dovre and the software sales in the U.S., and to further develop the profitability of the Camako division. Both divisions plan to recruit, and as a result increase personnel working in customer projects during 2009. The general financial situation is still unstable, but the expectations for Proha especially for the early 2009 are more positive than the current economic climate. However, the duration of customer projects has shortened, as in the present situation customers are reluctant to commit themselves to long projects due to risk management. We find ourselves in situations where ongoing long term projects are extended in steps of three months.

The revisions to the strategy aim at improving profitability and aligning the Group structure to better meet the market needs. IFRS REPORTING The Group's primary segment reporting is based on business segments. The reporting structure of Proha was adjusted by placing Norwegian Safran Software Solutions AS under the Dovre division. The remaining units of the previous Safran Systems division were renamed Camako. The reporting structure of the Group has been altered in accordance with the new divisional structure so that Dovre, Camako and other operations constitute separately reporting business segments. Other operations consist of the Proha administration. The figures for January 1 - December 31, 2008 together with the comparative data are presented according to the before mentioned business segments. BUSINESS PERFORMANCE Dovre division: On June 3, 2008, Otto Søberg was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer of the Dovre division of Proha Plc. Dovre has in the third quarter renewed its organization structure based on the revised strategy. The name of the division's parent company was also changed from Dovre International AS to Dovre Group AS. The new name will better reflect the company's position as the parent company of the international subsidiaries. The second half of 2008 has to a large extent shown the same trend as the first half year, which was a robust period. Dovre pursues growing the business progressively. Dovre is at the end of 2008 organized and staffed to take on growth and is able to bring the company up the value chain to the benefit of clients, employees and owners. Dovre is a globally operating company within project management, procurement and consulting. The following business areas comprise Dovre's core competencies: - Management Consulting - Project & Procurement - Project Services - Safran Systems - Dovre Campus Overall, Dovre with its highly specialized resources has served the clients in more than 25 countries over the last two years. According to the revised strategy and reorganization, Dovre has become more transparent and has clear areas of responsibilities related to deliverables to the market. Dovre continues to serve the large international clients in the oil & gas sector. Additionally, an increased interest is seen from smaller companies in the market, which can generate projects with a higher value added consulting services. Management Consulting will continue to serve the public sector at the same level as earlier, but will increasingly focus on industries outside oil and gas. Project and Procurement can deliver the complete project or procurement organization with all needed specialists as well as appropriate technologies and systems to support the project activity. Aiming at having a wide network of experienced partners on related practices, Dovre concentrates on covering services based on its core competencies. Dovre has introduced the Dovre Campus, which will deliver courses and training programs for the professional market. The vision of the Dovre Campus is to be a physical and virtual environment, where knowledge within our core competence areas flows in, is processed, and then offered out to our customers through several channels. As an example, Dovre finalized a two-month training course within contract management for 30 managers in a large international oil & gas company during the first two quarters of 2008. In addition, nine major projects within project management consulting were successfully executed in the public sector. All these projects were contracted based on the frame agreement with Norway's Ministry of Finance. The level of activity derived from this frame agreement is expected to continue in 2009. Also several new agreements regarding public procurement were signed outside the oil and gas industry. The most important to mention is the agreement with South-Eastern Norway Regional Health Authority. Dovre North America grew steadily and increasingly profitably, especially in the Canadian operations. The division focused on providing long-term project staff to major oil and gas projects throughout North America and parts of the world for some of the oil and gas clients, such as ExxonMobil and Chevron. The operation works to establish new branches in Italy and Australia. Safran Software Solution AS was fully integrated in Dovre at the end of 2008 giving the company increased potential synergy effects both internally and externally in the market. Safran has continued to develop its business positively with new customers for Safran products and license and service sales progressing as expected. In the third quarter, two new distribution agreements were signed in the USA through Safran North America LLC. In addition, four new resellers as well as three new services and technology partners, and several new customers were acquired. Dovre strengthened its board composition based on the decision made in December. The company invited Norwegian Gro Kielland (49) to join Dovre's board of directors. Mrs. Kielland also became the first female member of Dovre's board. Dovre's new board of directors was effective in January 1, 2009. The markets show some hesitation related to the crisis in the financial markets, but Dovre still expects to see a demand for its products and services both in the short and long term. Dovre considers the market for recruitment of professionals to be challenging. At the same time, however, it is foreseeable that a slight tendency for increased unemployment in other industries will create an opportunity for Dovre to recruit highly capable professionals. Camako division: Timo Saros was appointed the Chief Operating Officer of the Camako division on May 7, 2008. The Camako division's organization was structured to reflect the revised Proha strategy announced in the second quarter. Camako Nordic Oy was formed, and Datatron Oy, Datamar Oy, and Camako Data AB were transferred to its holding. Camako Nordic is responsible for creating the new Camako brand and the product development of the newly named Camako EPM solution (formerly SafranOne). Datatron Oy was renamed Camako Finland Oy in August and Proha purchased the remaining shares at the end of the period under review. As part of the reorganization, a new executive group was formed, which consists of managing director Timo Saros of Camako Nordic Oy, managing director Klaus Venetjoki of Camako Finland Oy, managing director Jouko Järvinen of Datamar Oy, and managing director Johan Enfeldt of Camako Data AB. The new Camako PM3 service concept was launched in August. Camako PM3 service combines the following: 1) Project management processes—auditing, development, and documentation, 2) Project management tools—selection, implementation, and support, and 3) Project personnel—training and improvement of skills for processes and tools, as well as outsourcing skilled staff to customers to raise the skill level. In Finland, the demand for Microsoft EPM systems and related services has continued to grow according to projections. The increase in Camako Finland's service business has been faster than the increase in the market. During the year, several maintenance agreements have been signed with significant customers and the amount of long-term maintenance agreements has more than doubled. During the period under review, Camako signed a significant agreement on the specification, development, testing, and implementation of a cost management module for investment projects using Camako EPM technology. The introduction of the new module is estimated to take place early 2009. Towards the end of the year, two new delivery contracts were signed for RescuePlanner, the software for rescue services. Almost all significant rescue services in Finland are now involved in developing the system further. Other operations: Proha Plc has completed the voluntary liquidation process of its subsidiaries DA Management Solutions Oy and Tietovaruste Oy NPM during the period under review. The subsidiaries subject to liquidation had no active business.

SHORT-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES The demand in oil and gas sector together with the level of investments in the sector impacts the success of Dovre division. The companies operating in the oil and gas industry are challenged also by the adequacy of resources and increasing personnel turnover. According to the revised strategy, Dovre division will offer its customers deliverables with a higher level of content and value added services than earlier. The risk taking is being mitigated and will be reflected in pricing of the services. The company has also a considerable unaddressed market potential and it plans to enter new market segments to diversify and grow the overall business. The business operations of the Camako division will be affected by competition from the market in general and by new technological solutions developed by that competition. In addition, instability in the financial sector may weaken companies' capabilities in some market segments to start new, significant investment projects, and thereby reduce the demand on improvements and development of the project management. At the same time, the importance of project portfolio and resource management as a part of business planning is always emphasized in transition situations like decline and recovery. Microsoft is projecting the growth of its EPM business to continue at the same level as in previous years. This growth also enables an increase in Camako's enterprise project management services, which in turn requires successful recruitment of skilled professionals. The development of Proha's international business includes also possible acquisitions and shareholdings in companies operating in the field. Such acquisitions always include risks. They are being managed, among others, by ensuring that the size of acquisitions is reasonable. EVENTS AFTER THE PERIOD There were no significant events after the period. OUTLOOK Proha projects a positive operating result for the year 2009. Result after financial income is difficult to project accurately due to heavily fluctuating exchange rates. The general economical situation may slow down Proha's revenue growth. Regarding Dovre division's general outlook for business development, it is expected to be positive despite the general situation in the world markets. Several of the larger oil and gas companies forecast investment levels to remain stable for 2009-2010. The acquisition of Canadian project management resource company, Project Resource Solutions Inc., strengthened Dovre's Canadian operations in particular within oil sand projects in Alberta. Oil sands show a higher degree of sensitivity to the overall oil price, and it is expected that this market segment will face some challenges. Outside the oil and gas industry Dovre aims on the other hand to focus on land based industries giving the company a certain spread in the total risk picture. Dovre has successfully revised its business models and management practices, and the management believes the company can handle potential market fluctuations. Dovre's international business activity is anticipated to grow steadily. The Camako division believes the software sales of Camako EPM to grow in 2009. The 4.0 version of the Camako EPM software suite enabled a seamless integration with Microsoft Project software and opened new business opportunities within existing Microsoft EPM services clientele both in Finland and in Sweden. Although the current economic climate is challenging worldwide and many of our clients have announced layoffs, orders on Camako's services still seem to be growing. In the new financial situation where companies are reducing personnel, a good resource and project planning plays yet a more significant role. Due to the economic uncertainties customers are, however, more cautious, and therefore the span of the service contracts is shorter and also the average value is smaller. Regardless of services being fully booked for the first part of the year, there are no guarantees that orders and revenue would continue to grow at the same level throughout the year. Camako's target is to increase the business both in Finland and in Sweden. In addition, the 2009 business plan includes a further survey of the Norwegian and Danish Microsoft EPM service markets, and drawing up an expansion plan based on the results. The above prospects are based on forecasts approved by the Proha Board of Directors. BOARD OF DIRECTORS' PROPOSAL FOR DISTRIBUTION OF PROFIT The Proha Board of Directors proposes that result for the financial year be entered in shareholders' equity, and no dividend be paid. Espoo on February 8, 2009 Proha Plc Board of Directors The financial statements are audited.

Before the acquisition Proha had 20 % ownership of the company. Camako Finland Oy offers consultancy services in project management. At acquisition Camako employed three consultants. Camako Finland became part of the Proha's Camako division. Camako Finland Oy is consolidated in Proha's group financial statements beginning April 1, 2008. In September 2008 Proha Plc's 100 % owned subsidiary Camako Nordic Oy acquired 40 % ownership of the Camako Finland Oy. As a result, Camako Finland Oy became Proha Plc's fully owned subsidiary. The acquisition cost of Camako Finland Oy was approximately EUR 0,4 million. Approximately EUR 0,3 million of the purchase price was paid in cash and approximately EUR 0,1 million was paid in shares by issuing 243.081 new Proha Plc shares for subscription by the seller. According to the terms of the purchase agreement the subscription price of the shares is the weighted average price of Proha shares in NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Oy between November 1 2007 and January 31, 2008, i.e. EUR 0.27 per share, totaling at EUR 66 thousand. The total amount paid for the shares is recorded in the fund for invested non-restricted equity. Of the acquisition cost approximately EUR 0.1 million were allocated to customer relations. Since majority of the customer agreements have a termination period of one month no acquisition cost is allocated to them. The fair value of the acquired net assets was approximately EUR 0.1 million in September 30 2008. The goodwill of approximately EUR 0.3 million was recognized and was based on Camako Finland Oy experience of design, implement, customize, train and maintain Microsoft's solutions for project management. In 2008 Camako Finland Oy's share of the Group result was EUR 0.1 million. In 2008 Camako Finland Oy's share of the Group net sales would have been EUR 0.9 million and share of Group result EUR 0.1 million if Camako Finland Oy had been consolidated in the Group financial statements beginning January 1, 2008 Datamar Oy Camako Nordic Oy a fully owned subsidiary of Proha Oyj acquired 10% of shares in in Datamar Oy in October 2008. Consequently Datamar Oy became a fully owned subsidiary of Proha. The acquisition cost of shares was EUR 30 thousand. The acquisition had no material influence on the result or financial position of Proha for the year 2008. Camako Data AB In October 2007 Proha acquired full ownership of the Swedish project management IT consultancy company Camako Data AB (Camako). Established in 1996 Camako Data AB is a project and resource management IT consultancy company concentrating especially in Microsoft products. At acquisition Camako Data AB employed eight consultants and has a strong position in the Swedish markets. Camako Data AB became part of the Proha's Camako division. Camako Data AB is consolidated in Proha's group financial statements beginning November 1, 2007. In December 30, 2008 the acquisition cost of Camako Data AB is estimated approximately at EUR 0.8 million (on December 31, 2007 estimation was EUR 1.1 million). The acquisition cost of Camako Data AB is composed of a fixed portion of approximately EUR 0.7 million and of a potential additional purchase price that is based on certain performance objectives. The additional purchase price will total a maximum EUR 0.1 million. In the financial year 2008 acquisition cost reduction was recorded approximately EUR 0.3 million because the year 2008 additional price that was based on certain performance objectives wasn't paid. The fixed portion approximately EUR 0.7 million was paid in two installments with approximately EUR 0.4 million paid at closing and approximately EUR 0.3 million in January 2008. The second installment 0.3 million of the fixed purchase price for Camako Data AB was paid cash EUR 0.1 million and EUR 0.1 million in shares by issuing 500,000 new Proha shares for subscription by the seller. According to the terms of the purchase agreement the subscription price of the shares is the weighted average price of Proha shares in NASDAQ Helsinki Oy between January 22 - 28, 2008, i.e. EUR 0.26 per share, totaling at EUR 130,000.00. The total amount paid for the shares will be recorded in the fund for invested non-restricted equity. Two thirds (2/3) of the new shares include a sales restriction that expired on October 26, 2008 for the first third and on October 26, 2009 for the second third. According to the estimates on December 31, 2008, the possible additional purchase price would be approximately EUR 0.1 million and will be paid at latest in 2009 either in cash or in Proha Plc shares. The estimated additional purchase price of approximately 0.1 million is included in the accrued liabilities of the current liabilities in the Group balance sheet on December 31, 2008. Of the cost of acquisition EUR 0.3 million were allocated to customer relations. Since majority of the customer agreements have a termination period of one month no acquisition cost is allocated to them. Consequently approximately EUR 0.1 million was recognized as deferred tax liability. The fair value of the acquired net assets was approximately EUR 0.2 million. The goodwill of approximately EUR 0.9 million was recognized and was based on Camako being Microsoft Gold Certified Partner with solid experience on Microsoft EPM and Microsoft Sharepoint systems. The acquisition of Camako is an important strategic action for Proha's Safran Systems division and supports Proha's strategy of international expansion. Recorded goodwill from acquisition totaled approximately EUR 0.5 million in December 31 2008. The decrease of goodwill totaled EUR 0.3 million, the share of EUR 0.2 million of the goodwill reduction was based on acquisition cost adjustment and EUR 0.1 million of translation difference. In 2007 Camako Data AB's share of the Group result was EUR 0.0 million. In 2007 Camako Data AB's share of the Group net sales would have been EUR 1.2 million and share of Group result EUR 0.0 million if Camako had been consolidated in the Group financial statements beginning January 1, 2007. Project Resource Solutions Inc. Proha's Canadian subsidiary Fabcon Canada Limited acquired full ownership of Project Resource Solutions Inc (PRS) in November 2007. PRS is a project management resource company focusing on services to Canadian Oil Sand Projects, a market that Fabcon entered in 2006. Established in 2005, PRS is located in Calgary. At the time of acquisition PRS engaged 36 consultants within project management in various projects in the province of Alberta. PRS became a subsidiary to Fabcon Canada Limited and thus a part of Proha's Dovre Consulting and Services division. PRS is consolidated in Proha's group financial statements beginning November 20, 2007. In December 31, 2008 the acquisition cost of PRS is estimated approximately at EUR 1.2 million (December 31, 2007 estimation totaled EUR 1.1 million). In November 2007, the fixed part of the purchase price CAD 1.2 million (approx. EUR 0.9 million) was paid in cash. The acquisition cost of PRS is composed of a fixed portion of CAD 1.2 million and immediate related acquisition costs of EUR 30 thousand. In addition, the agreement contains an earn out model that will pay the Sellers 30% of PRS gross profits over the 36 months between November 20, 2007 - December 19, 2010.On the date of acquisition EUR 0.2 were recognized as adjustment to the acquisition cost and EUR 0.1 million in a year 2008 (including currency exchange difference). The EUR 0.1 million adjustment to acquisition cost consists of additional purchase price based on gross margin between November 20, 2007 and December 31, 2008 and is based on the probability of the adjustment and that it can be reliably defined. The estimated gross margin is based on actual earnings development in November 20, 2007 - December 31, 2008 and on the budget approved by Proha Board for January 1, - December 31, 2009. Of the cost of acquisition EUR 0.2 million were allocated to customer relations. Since majority of the customer agreements have short termination period no acquisition cost is allocated to them. Consequently approximately EUR 0.1 million was recognized as deferred tax liability. The fair value of the acquired net assets was approximately EUR 0.0 million. The goodwill of approximately EUR 1.0 million was recognized and was based on PRS strengthening Proha's Dovre division considerably in Canada. PRS's experienced team along with their vast networks will enable further expansion of Group operations into the Canadian Western Oil Sands frontier. Also synergies are found with other Group operations in North America and in services to international clients globally. The addition of goodwill totaled EUR 0.1 million, which consist of EUR 0.3 million of acquisition cost adjustment and EUR 0.2 million of translation difference. In 2007 PRS's share of the Group result was approximately EUR 0.0 million. In 2007 PRS's share of the Group net sales would have been EUR 5.2 million and share of Group result EUR 0.1 million if PRS had been consolidated in the Group financial statements beginning January 1, 2007.
