CEO'S REVIEW

The company achieved positive results in the first quarter from both profit and
cash flow perspective.  This was in part due to a significant license deal in
January.  Additionally, the company's new key management solution is receiving
strong interest and it may lead to significant deals later in the year.  In
April the company also announced that it has sold a Tectia Guardian solution to
a European government entity for monitoring remote system administration and
encrypted connections within their network. 

The tender offer I made for company's shares has now ended, and we can fully
focus on developing the company's business.  The tender offer and related
increase in my ownership has no direct impact on the company's operations,
personnel, or customers.  The new situation allows more effective management
and financing of the company. 

The company provides solutions for improving the operational efficiency and
security of large IT environments and their administration, regardless of
whether they use the company's commercial Tectia SSH or open source OpenSSH
products (practically every Linux and Unix computer and router ships with a
version of SSH software, and it is also increasingly used as a file transfer
solution in enterprises). 

The company now particularly focuses on key management in large SSH
environments.  The company's key management solutions have been on the market
since 2003, and are used by some of the world's largest banks, retail chains,
logistics companies, and government agencies - even for managing environments
of tens of thousands of servers. 

The company is currently developing its next generation key and configuration
management solution for large SSH environments together with some of its
largest customers (including some of the world's largest banks, a large retail
chain, and a large logistics company as pilot customers).  The company's new
key management solutions provide visibility also for SSH user keys and automate
their setup, removal and rotation, thereby providing operational cost savings,
reducing security risk, and helping customers comply with industry standards
and regulations.  The management solutions support both commercial Tectia SSH
and open source OpenSSH versions - also in mixed environments and on all
primary enterprise platforms. 

I intend to lead the company as an entrepreneur-driven growth company. Over the
next several quarters the company will invest in bringing its new products to
market, in part by growing its sales organization and partner network in the
US, Europe, and Asia.  I also want the company to be a technology leader in its
own area, and we will continue to invest in R&D and developing new solutions
for improving the efficiency and security of customers' IT infrastructure. The
company has also filed patent applications on essential technologies relating
to automating key management in SSH environments and monitoring encrypted
connections within enterprises.

REPORTING

This financial statement release follows IFRS accounting standards and
assessments. The figures are non-audited. The following amendments to standards
have been adopted as from 1 January 2012 but they have had no impact on the
consolidated financial statements: (* = not yet endorsed for use by the
European Union) 
* Amendments to IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures
* Amendments to IAS 12 Income Taxes*

FUTURE OUTLOOK

General economic uncertainty can possibly still continue. This complicates
estimation for full year 2012. However company estimates its net sales are
likely to increase from 2011 due mainly to two large contracts already
announced and continued solid maintenance business. 

Tectia believes that it is not justified at the moment to give profitability
estimates for year 2012 mainly due to risks related to development and ramping
up sales and deliveries of new products and the uncertainty in macroeconomic
environment. 

NET SALES

Consolidated net sales for January-March totaled EUR 2.6 million (EUR 2.1
million), up by 22.0 percent, year on year. 

The Americas, the Europe, Middle East and Africa market area and the Asia
Pacific region accounted for 42.3 percent (66.6 percent), 46.6 percent (20.3
percent) and 11.2 percent (13.1 percent) of reported net sales, respectively.
The significant licence deal in Europe in January impacted regional
distribution.

The company's registered share capital on December 31, 2011 was EUR 916,476.24
consisting of 30,549,208 shares. 

The Annual General Meeting approved the Board of Directors' proposal to

5,500,000 shares, in one or more tranches, as share issues against payment or
by giving stock options or other special rights entitling to shares, as defined
in Chapter 10 Section 1 of the Finnish Companies Act, either in accordance with
the shareholders' pre-emptive right to share subscription or deviating from
this right. The authorization will be valid until the next Annual General

2,000,000 of the company's own shares, in one or more tranches, with assets
belonging to the company's non-restricted equity. This amount corresponds
approximately to 6.55 per cent of all shares of the company. The compensation

acquisition on the basis of the trading rate determined for the company's share
in the public trading arranged by NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd. The authorization to

decision of the Annual General Meeting. 

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Short- and midterm risks impacting Tectia have not changed remarkably since
31.12.2011. Largest risks impacting the profitability of the company are: 

-  amount of R&D investment into new still under development products, starting
the delivery and sales of the new products and demand; 
- continuing uncertainty of macroeconomic environment;
- large portion of company revenue is invoiced in USD currency so possible
large fluctuation in USD currency rates during 2012 could have unpredictable
effects into profitability that are at the time difficult to estimate. 

Principles and organization of risk management of Tectia can be read from
company´s webpage: www.ssh.com. 

EVENTS AFTER THE BALANCE SHEET DATE

According to a separately published release by the company on April 16th, 2012,
a major European governmental organization has ordered Tectia Guardian product
with a  value of  EUR 0.5 million. Software license sales of the received order
will be recognized during second quarter 2012 and the maintenance sales portion
during fiscal years 2012 and 2013. 

As company announced 10.4.2012, Tatu Ylönen and his fully owned Clausal
Computing Oy has exceeded the flagging threshold of 50%. As company announced
30.4.2012, according to the preliminary result of the Tender Offer, the Shares
tendered in the Tender Offer represent approximately 10.36 percent of all the
Shares and voting rights attached to the Shares. Together with the Shares
otherwise purchased or previously owned by Clausal Computing and Tatu Ylönen,
the Shares tendered in the Tender Offer represent approximately 58.00 percent
of all the Shares and voting rights attached to the Shares. In addition, 13,322
Stock Options entitling to Shares were tendered in the Tender Offer. When
taking into account the Shares owned by Tectia's subsidiary SSH Management
Investment Oy, Tatu Ylönen's direct and indirect share of the voting rights
attached to the Shares is 60.86 percent based on the shareholding following the
completion of the Tender Offer. 

The final result of the Tender Offer will be confirmed and announced on or
about May 3, 2012. 

The Tectia management is not aware of any other transactions that happened
after the reporting period that would have impacted the presented financial
statement.
