H1 net sales rose to EUR 49.7 million, up 11.9%. Operating profit increased by 37.6% to EUR 5.1 million. During the second quarter, we succeeded in entering into several new Automation Services agreements with international major customers, which proves that our product offering is capable of meeting demanding customer expectations and requirements. These agreements will have an effect on our net sales over several years. The growth of Automation Services is also supported by the mid-market SaaS solution launched during the second quarter in North America. The launch will continue in the Central European market during the second half of the year. Basware's license sales and services grew at a rapid rate during the second quarter. License sales increased by 24.9%. Regionally, the European and North American operations grew the best. Net sales increased by 28.2 percent in Europe with a considerable improvement in operating profit. The North American net sales also continued solid growth compared to the previous year. An excellent first half of the year provides a solid basis for the rest of the year. The market seems slightly more positive than the year before, which is supported by favorable development in license sales and updated market analyst forecasts. With regard to profitability, we are already within the full-year profit targets, which offers us a great opportunity for reaching a good profit level."

The share subscriptions were based on the Warrant Program 2006 series C warrants (39 000 shares) and Warrant Program 2007 series E warrants (40 200 shares).

A separate stock exchange release has been issued on the Board authorizations and other resolutions of the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders on February 18, 2010. SHORT-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTY FACTORS In accordance with Basware's risk management policy, risks are divided into six categories: risks related to business operations, products, personnel as well as legal, financial and data security risks. Basware takes risks that are a natural part of its strategy and objectives. These risks are managed and decreased in various ways. Short-term risks are considered to be risks in the current reporting year. Market forecasts released in March-June 2010 expect the software purchases to increase by 7.5 percent globally and 8.3 percent in the US in 2010. The entire IT services market is expected to grow by 7.2 percent globally and by 6.6 percent in the US in 2010. The global economic uncertainty continues, which might decrease companies' willingness to invest also in the future. This might have an unfavorable impact on the development of the company's net sales and profitability. Previously in times of economic uncertainty, the demand for the company's products and services has remained more positive than the general market, as the company's software solutions generate cost savings. During times of economic uncertainty, companies' delinquency entries and the number of bankruptcies have been increasing. Typically, companies may also prolong the times of payments in order to free up working capital. Basware has intensified its management of sales receivables, and business management regularly monitors the payment of sales receivables as part of the management of customer accounts. The Group's main currency is the euro, accounting for approximately 61 percent of net sales in 2009 (approximately 67% in 2008). The significance of exchange rate fluctuations between the euro and other currencies will increase hand in hand with the share of international operations. The company did not realize hedging for exchange rate fluctuations during the financial period as the foreign-currency-denominated cash flow in the subsidiaries did not exceed the set annual foreign-currency-specific limit for hedging measures. Basware's objective is to become the world's leading company in e-invoicing. E-invoicing and the supporting Scan and Capture services, included in Automation Services, also target suppliers and buyers outside Basware's existing customer base, which increases the customer potential. The company's long-term objective is an annual growth of more than 50 percent in Automation Services. SaaS and e-invoicing are scalable business models with a high business potential. The realization of this growth potential requires a new operating model as well as active and continuous development of competencies because of the strong growth of the number of customers and transaction volumes. These include sales and commissioning as well as customer support and product development. No significant changes have taken place in Basware's short-term risks and uncertainties during the financial period. EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD Basware Board of Directors approved in its meeting on July 8, 2010, the subscription of total of 79 200 shares subscribed for with Basware Warrant Programs. The share subscriptions were based on the Warrant Program 2006 series C warrants (39 000 shares) and Warrant Program 2007 series E warrants (40 200 shares). FUTURE OUTLOOK Market forecasts released in March-June 2010 expect the software purchases to increase by 7.5 percent globally and 8.3 percent in the US in 2010. The entire IT services market is expected to grow by 7.2 percent globally and by 6.6 percent in the US in 2010. Basware's direct competitors are primarily locally operating and often smaller companies. In North America in particular, the company also has larger competitors, especially in the field of procurement management. Developers ofdocument management, scanning and workflow systems compete with Basware, particularly with regard to purchase invoice management solutions. Competing solutions also include customized solutions integrated into ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems. The software still offers a competitive edge, thanks to the integrated offering consisting of new added value products and the products. Automation Services will have a positive impact on the competitiveness. Automation Services increase the long-term predictability and transparency of a company's net sales and profitability. In 2009, revenue from continuous services (including maintenance) accounted for more than 40 percent of the company's total revenue. In order to support the sales of invoice automation solutions, Basware launched a mid-market SaaS (Software as a Service) solution. The solution was launched during the second quarter in North America and will be launched in the Central European market during the last two quarters. Basware aims to become a leading company in e-invoicing worldwide. E-invoicing and supporting Connectivity Services are targeted to connect suppliers and buyers also outside of Basware's existing software customer base, leading into a higher potential. The company's long-term target is to grow annually more than 50% in Automation Services. SaaS and e-invoicing are scalable models with a high business potential. A growth investment program of Basware Automation Services (SaaS, Scan and Capture and e-invoicing) has been launched at the beginning of 2010, and it is expected to promote the positive development of operations and order backlog. The Company's international growth is based on efforts of its own sales and marketing activity as well as the reseller channel. Development of the indirect distribution channel continues in Europe, Russia and Asia. In North America, the focus will be on developing the Company's own sales channel. In Scandinavia, the focus is on profitability, and moderate growth is supported by the Company's expanded product portfolio and the development of the service business. In Finland, the focus is on profitability, and moderate growth will primarily be achieved from the fields of procurement management and services. Basware has complemented its organic growth with acquisitions. The Company will continue to review possible acquisition targets during 2010. In particular, possible acquisitions will aim at supporting Automation Services and expanding the Company's distribution channel in international markets. The Group's number of personnel will increase the most in Automation Services and product development during the year. The number of personnel will increase the most in India, which facilitates growth with a more moderate increase in costs. Due to the strong first half of the year, additional growth-related investments will be made during the latter half of 2010. The growth investments will particularly focus on the Automation Services business and research and development activities. Basware expects its net sales for 2010 to develop positively on the level of 2009. Operating profit (EBIT) for 2010 is expected to be from 10 to 15 percent of net sales.
