During the review period, a sudden change occurred in the operating conditions
of Digia's Mobile Solutions segment. Realigned technology-platform strategies
and changes in the competitive situation between phone manufacturers markedly
reduced demand for Digia's Contract Engineering Services, particularly for the
sale of new services. As a result, the Mobile Solutions segment's net sales
fell dramatically year-on-year. At the same time, the salary costs of personnel
recruited to fulfil earlier growth targets markedly burdened profit
performance, both for the segment and the entire company. During the second
quarter, negative impacts clearly grew.
To adapt its cost structure and operations to the Mobile Solutions segment's
new market conditions, Digia conducted two sets of personnel negotiations. In
conclusion, the company decided to close its units in Pori and Lappeenranta and
lay off a maximum of 244 employees by the end of 2011. The extraordinary
expenses of EUR 3.2 million arising from these negotiations were recognised in
the company's second-quarter profit and loss. This turned the company's
operating profit negative for both the second quarter and the review period.
Having followed developments in the Contract Engineering Services' business
environment during the period, the Board re-evaluated long-term income
expectations for the Mobile Solutions segment. At its meeting of 10 August
2011, the Board decided to make a one-off EUR 25.4 million writedown of
customer relationships and goodwill in relation to said segment.
Net sales for the Enterprise Solutions segment achieved the average organic
growth level of the general IT market. Counting in the Qt business acquired in
March, it even exceeded market growth. Profitability, excluding extraordinary
expenses related to the start up of the Qt business, also attained a healthy
level towards the period end.
The company predicts that, in the second half of the year, Mobile Solutions'
net sales will fall notably compared to their first-half figures. Despite
streamlining measures, operational profitability is expected to remain below
the 2010 level. However, continued uncertainty surrounding the Mobile Solutions
segment is hampering reliable business forecasting.
With regard to Enterprise Solutions, the company expects its operations to
develop positively during the second half. Net sales should grow organically,
at least at the moderate growth rate predicted for the IT market. Profitability
is expected to remain at the normal good level.

MARKETS AND DIGIA'S BUSINESS
During the review period, the Finnish economy continued to grow. In comparison
with 2010, Digia predicts modest growth in the Finnish IT market in 2011.
However, risks associated with debt issues within the Eurozone and the US may
affect demand for IT services and the development of business profitability.
Demand for smartphones and the entire mobile phone industry are in transition.
Realigned technology-platform strategies and changes in the competition between
phone manufacturers have markedly shifted the focal points of demand. This has
occurred both geographically and in terms of service and solution contents,
leading to changes in the operating environment of Digia's Mobile Solutions
segment.
Digia's Chinese unit generates product development and maintenance services.
This enables the company to serve customers at various points in their product
development cycles. The unit's capacity is utilised both in projects within
China and for global customer relationships. Reduced demand for Symbian and
Meego technologies, caused by the change in the operating environment, will
impact on the Chinese units' operations during the second half of 2011.
The Russian unit operates as a near-shore resource for Digia's Finnish
customers. It also sells services directly to local customers, an operation
which Digia is actively attempting to develop and increase. During the review
period, the Russian unit's operations progressed as expected.
ENTERPRISE SOLUTIONS:
Demand for ERP systems, e-business and customer experience management solutions
continued at a reasonable level during the review period. Purchased in March,
the QT commercial licensing and services business was successfully launched.
Counting in this new business, the Enterprise Solutions business grew faster
than the IT market average.
During the period, the company continued to develop systems and services
focused on enhancing customers' operational efficiency and customer experience
management. Digia also continued to commercialise new multichannel and wireless
solutions. In addition, the company invested in developing a license-based
toolkit for user experience development and international sales. Digia has a US
sales office for serving the local market.
Certain areas of expertise are showing signs of labour shortages and growing
staff turnover. This signifies that pressure from higher personnel costs may
continue in the future. The company has launched training programmes for
competence development and managing personnel turnover.
Digia considers its competences in smartphone applications development and
enterprise applications a huge asset in strengthening its position as a
provider of multichannel and wireless system solutions.
MOBILE SOLUTIONS:
During the period, realigned technology-platform strategies and the change in
competition between phone manufacturers had a negative impact on demand for
Digia's Contract Engineering Services.
To adapt its cost structure and operations to the new market conditions, Digia
conducted two sets of personnel negotiations during the period. The
negotiations terminating in April led to the closure of the Pori unit and
layoff of 63 employees. The second set of negotiations was held between 13 May
and 28 June 2011. Following these, the company decided to close its
Lappeenranta unit by the end of September 2011 and to lay off a maximum of 181
employees. These mainly work in Mobile Solutions in Lappeenranta or in Digia's
offices in Helsinki, Jyväskylä, Oulu or Tampere.
Due to the radical changes in the operating environment, the company
re-evaluated the operations and related long-term risks of Mobile Solutions.
This led to a writedown of EUR 25.4 million related to the segment's customer
relationships and goodwill.
In parallel with its Contract Engineering Operations, the company will focus on
harnessing its knowhow of wireless systems in the provision of multichannel
enterprise solutions and on developing license-based software for the creation
of rich user experiences.
NET SALES
During the reporting period, Digia's consolidated net sales were EUR 65.7
(67.8) million, down 3.1 per cent on the same period in 2010.
The Enterprise Solutions segment's net sales for the period totalled EUR 41.2
(39.3) million, up 4.8 per cent. The Mobile Solutions segment posted net sales
of EUR 24.6 (28.6) million, down 14.0 per cent. The lower-than-expected
development in Enterprise Solutions' net sales was due to lower licence sales,
reflected in the volume of work invoicing. However, from the second quarter
onwards, the Qt business boosted the net sales of the Enterprise Solutions
segment. In Mobile Solutions, net sales fell due to a sudden and considerable
drop in demand for services, following a change in the business environment.
During the reporting period, the product business accounted for EUR 11.9 (10.6)
million of consolidated net sales, or 18.2 (15.6) per cent.
International operations accounted for EUR 5.7 (5.9) million of consolidated
net sales, or 8.7 (8.7) per cent.
For the second quarter, Digia's consolidated net sales came to EUR 32.4 (35.0)
million, down 7.6 per cent year-on-year.
Second-quarter net sales for the Enterprise Solutions segment totalled EUR 21.7
(19.9) million, up 8.8 per cent. For the Mobile Solutions segment,
second-quarter net sales came to 10.7 (15.1) million, down 29.2 per cent.
The product business accounted for EUR 7.1 (5.2) million of consolidated net
sales in the second quarter, or 21.9 (14.9) per cent. These figures include an
individual low-margin license deal with a non-recurring impact.
International operations accounted for EUR 3.2 (3.2) million of consolidated
net sales in the second quarter, or 9.9 (9.3) per cent.
PROFIT PERFORMANCE AND PROFITABILITY
During the reporting period and the second quarter, extraordinary items had a
significant impact on Digia's consolidated profit performance and
profitability. These extraordinary items comprised a EUR 3.2 million
restructuring provision related to the closure of sites and a EUR 25.4 million
writedown of customer relationships and goodwill. The extraordinary items were
entirely attributable to the Mobile Solutions segment. Operating profit before
extraordinary items indicates the company's operational profitability.
Digia's consolidated operating profit for the reporting period was EUR 2.9
(9.5) million, down 69.5 per cent year-on-year. Profitability (EBIT %) before
extraordinary items was 4.4 (13.9) per cent.
During the reporting period, Digia's consolidated operating profit/loss after
extraordinary items came to EUR -25.6 (9.5) million, down 371.0 per cent
year-on-year. Profitability (EBIT %) after extraordinary items was -39.0 (13.9)
per cent.
During the period, the operating profit of the Enterprise Solutions segment was
EUR 3.5 (5.8) million, down 40.6 per cent, while profitability (EBIT %) came to
8.4 per cent. Excluding its Qt business involving extraordinary start-up
expenses, Enterprise Solutions' operating profit totalled EUR 3.8 million and
profitability stood at (EBIT %) 9.4 per cent. The decrease in the Enterprise
Solutions segment's net sales was caused by lower-than-expected Finnish license
sales and, on the other hand, higher operating expenses. During the period, the
cost structure has been particularly burdened by personnel turnover.
Recruitment, subcontracting and training expenses related to resolving resource
shortages in certain competence areas, and the launch expenses for the QT
business, were also major costs.
For the Mobile Solutions segment, operating profit/loss totalled EUR -0.6 (3.6)
million, down 115.6 per cent, profitability (EBIT %) being -2.3 per cent. Lower
profitability in the Mobile Solutions segment was due to recruitment carried
out in late 2010 and early 2011 to meet earlier growth targets. Due to the
sudden and significant decrease in service demand, Digia has been unable to
provide enough work for all of the new employees, while the increased salary
costs were a financial burden.
Digia's consolidated second-quarter operating profit before extraordinary items
was EUR 0.6 (4.8) million, down 86.9 per cent year-on-year. Profitability (EBIT
%) was 1.9 (13.6) per cent.
After extraordinary items, Digia's consolidated second-quarter operating profit
came to EUR -27.9 (4.8) million, down 683.9 per cent year-on-year.
Profitability (EBIT %) was -86.2 (13.6) per cent.
During the second quarter, the operating profit of the Enterprise Solutions
segment was EUR 1.7 (3.0) million, down 43.2 per cent, while profitability
(EBIT %) came to 7.9 per cent. Excluding its Qt business involving
extraordinary start-up expenses, Enterprise Solutions' operating profit for the
second quarter was EUR 2.1 million and profitability (EBIT %) 10.2 per cent, up
from the first quarter. During the second quarter, the operating profit of the
Mobile Solutions segment was EUR -1.1 (1.8) million, down 160.6 per cent,
profitability (EBIT %) being -10.1 per cent.
Consolidated earnings before tax for the period totalled EUR -26.2 (8.7)
million, and net profit was EUR -24.8 (6.1) million. Consolidated earnings
before tax for the second quarter were EUR -28.1 (4.5) million, and net profit
totalled EUR -26.3 (3.2) million.
Consolidated earnings per share for the period were EUR -1.20 (0.30) after
extraordinary items and 0.12 (0.30) before extraordinary items. For the second
quarter, consolidated earnings per share were EUR -1.27 (0.15) after
extraordinary items and 0.05 (0.15) before extraordinary items.
The Group's net financial expenses for the reporting period were EUR 0.5 (0.8)
million and for the second quarter EUR 0.2 (0.3) million.
FINANCIAL POSITION AND EXPENDITURE
At the end of the reporting period, the Digia Group's consolidated balance
sheet total stood at EUR 89.5 million (12/2010: EUR 115.4 million) and the
equity ratio was 42.5 (12/2010: 58.8) per cent. Net gearing was 46.1 (12/2010:
20.2) per cent. The period-end cash and cash equivalents totalled EUR 5.3
(12/2010: 9.7) million.
Interest-bearing liabilities amounted to EUR 22.5 (12/2010: 23.3) million.
Interest-bearing liabilities comprised EUR 21.0 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 3.6
(5.5) million, cash flow from investments was negative by EUR 1.4 (0.6) million
and cash flow from financing was negative by
EUR 6.6 (8.9) million. Cash flow from financing was negatively affected by the
repayment of loans for a total sum of EUR 1.0 million, as well as the payment
of EUR 5.6 million in dividends.
The Group's total investments in fixed assets during the review period were EUR
1.4 (0.6) million Acquisitions of tangible fixed assets totalled EUR 0.9 (0.3)
million.
Return on investment (ROI) for the period was -67.8 (21.8) per cent and return
on equity (ROE) was -99.2 (20.5) per cent.
The Group carries out quarterly impairment testing on goodwill and intangible
assets with an indefinite useful life. By business segment, the table below
shows goodwill and values subject to testing at the end of the reporting
period:

In the second quarter, the company recorded a EUR 25.4 million goodwill
writedown for its Mobile Solution segment's customer relationships and
goodwill. The writedown was based on the company's revision of Mobile
Solutions' expected future income in the long term, as required by the
applicable legislation. This revised expectation is due to a sudden and
significant transition in Contract Engineering Services' operating environment.
In the company's view, this has markedly and permanently reduced demand for
Symbian and Meego related services. In future, the Mobile Solutions business
will focus on technologies and services in which the company can maintain at
least a reasonable level of profitability.
Present values for the Enterprise Solutions segment were calculated for the
forecast period, based on the following assumptions: net sales for 2011
according to the latest forecast, after which annual growth of 3 per cent;
operating profit for 2011 in accordance with the latest forecast and then
growth of 10 per cent, with discount rates of 11.2 per cent. Cash flows
following the forecast period are estimated by extrapolating the cash flows,
using the assumptions given above.
The amount of goodwill for Enterprise Solutions requires average annual growth
of two per cent for business operations and five per cent profitability. The
management sees no risk of goodwill impairment for Enterprise Solutions.
Present values for the Mobile Solutions segment were calculated for the
forecast period, based on the following assumptions: net sales for 2011 and
2012 according to the latest forecast, after which annual growth of 2 per cent;
operating profit for 2011 in accordance with the latest forecast and after that
11 per cent, with discount rates of 14.7 per cent. Cash flows following the
forecast period are estimated by extrapolating the cash flows, using the
assumptions given above.
HUMAN RESOURCES, MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATION
At the end of the period, the number of Group personnel totalled 1,512,
representing a decrease of 46 employees or 3.0 per cent since the end of 2010
(1,558 employees). During the reporting period, the number of employees
averaged 1,560, an increase of 52 employees or 3.4 per cent over the 2010
average (1,508).
Employees by function at the end of the period:
Enterprise Solutions 54%
----------------------------------
Mobile Solutions 43%
----------------------------------
Administration and management 3%
----------------------------------
As of the end of the period, 225 (12/2010: 196) employees were working abroad.
Digia Plc's Annual General Meeting of 16 March 2011 re-elected Robert Ingman,
Kari Karvinen, Pertti Kyttälä, Martti Mehtälä, Pekka Sivonen, Tommi Uhari and
Marjatta Virtanen as members of the Board. At the organisation meeting of the
Board, Pertti Kyttälä was elected as Chairman of the Board and Martti Mehtälä
as Vice Chairman.
Juha Varelius has been Digia Plc's President and CEO since 1 January 2008.
Ernst & Young Oy, authorised public accountants, are the Group's auditors, with
Heikki Ilkka, Authorised Public Accountant, as the principal auditor.
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The company's short-term business risks and uncertainties were described in the
Financial Statements for 2010. These are mainly unchanged. However, the
business risk associated with the mobile market was realised during the period,
fundamentally changing the operating environment. Developments in the mobile
market and their forecasting remain subject to more pronounced uncertainty and
risks.
FUTURE PROSPECTS
The company's original objective for 2011 was to focus on increasing net sales.
This had to be updated due to the changes in the operating environment for
Mobile Solutions. In spite of the changed environment - and because of it - the
company will focus even more intensely on developing its sales and implementing
efficiency-enhancing measures. The company aims to reinforce its organisation
and competencies through training programmes and targeted recruitment. These
measures are intended to adjust Digia's Mobile Solutions operations as well and
rapidly as possible to future demand, to further enhance Enterprise Solutions'
operations and to recover the segment's sound profitability. In addition to its
core business operations, the company will continue to invest in expanding its
scalable product business. Digia will also continue to develop its
international operations, particularly in China and Russia.
As a whole, the company expects the IT market to continue growing moderately in
2011 from its 2010 levels. In terms of Digia's net sales, the company expects a
clear drop in second-half net sales for the Mobile Solutions segment, in
comparison to their first-half level. Similarly, despite the streamlining
measures taken, Mobile Solutions' profitability is predicted to fall from its
2010 level. However, reliable forecasting of business operations is hampered by
continued major uncertainty surrounding the Mobile Solutions segment.
Within Enterprise Solutions, net sales are expected to grow organically during
the rest of the year, at least matching the moderate rate predicted for the IT
market. Profitability is expected to develop favourably and remain at the
normal good level. The commercial Qt-licensing and service operations acquired
in Spring have made a promising start. Positive net sales development is also
expected for the second half of the year. Digia believes that the Qt business
will increase its contribution to the company's future profitability.
The long-term cornerstones of Digia's success will be strengthening organic
growth and maintaining good cash flows and profitability.
OTHER EVENTS DURING THE REVIEW PERIOD
Convening on 16 March 2011, Digia Plc's Annual General Meeting (AGM) adopted
the financial statements for 2010, released the Board members and the CEO from
liability, determined Board emoluments, resolved to raise the number of Board
members to seven (7), and elected the company's Board of Directors for a new
term.
With regard to profit distribution for 2010, the AGM approved the Board's
proposal to pay a dividend of EUR 0.27 per share to all shareholders listed in
the shareholder list maintained by Euroclear Finland Ltd on the reconciliation
date of 21 March 2011. The dividend payment date was 28 March 2011.
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 a maximum of 2,000,000 shares in the company. This buyback can
only be executed using the company's unrestricted equity. The Board shall
decide on how these shares are bought. Own shares can be bought back in
disproportion to the holdings of the shareholders. The authorisation also
includes the 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, to offer 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 replaces that granted by
the Shareholders' Meeting on 3 March 2010 and is valid for 18 months, i.e.
until 16 September 2012.
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 can total a maximum of 4,000,000 shares. The authorisation applies both
to new shares and 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, waiving the pre-emptive subscription rights of the
shareholders (directed issue). The authorisation can be used to fund or
complete acquisitions or other business transactions, to offer share-based
incentive schemes, to develop the company's capital structure, or for other
purposes. The Board was authorised to decide on all terms relating 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 by writing it off
against the subscriber's receivables, and its recognition in the company's
balance sheet. This authorisation replaces that granted by the Shareholders'
Meeting on 3 March 2010 and is valid for 18 months, i.e. until 16 September
2012.
