President and CEO Olli-Pekka Salovaara:
"2012 was a significant year for Revenio Group. At the end of the year, we
kicked off a strategy overhaul geared toward supporting measures to bolster
strong growth in health technology. Our target in the health technology sector
is to build Icare into the leading global player in tonometers used in screening
for intraocular pressure.
This change process began on December 1, 2012, when the Group's business
operations were divided into two business units and reporting segments. The
operations of the Revenio Health Tech segment comprise the business operations
of Icare Finland Oy and some of the parent company's functions. I am responsible
for this segment in addition to my other duties. The Revenio Technology and
Services segment comprises the Software business (Done Software Solutions Oy),
the Information Displays business (FLS Finland Oy), the Rigid Inflatable Boats
business (Boomeranger Boats Oy), the Contact Center business (Midas Touch Oy)
and some of the functions of the Group's parent company. In December, we
announced that we will divest the operations of the Group's company Done
Logistics Oy. Riku Lamppu has been appointed to head up the segment.
Our financial objective for 2012 was to grow both net sales and profitability in
which we succeeded in continuing operations. Further bolstering the net sales
and profitability of the Health Tech segment was vitally important from the
perspective of our strategic choices. Both the Software and Information Displays
businesses saw excellent growth and profitability development. The strong growth
in the order book of the Rigid Inflatable Boats business was also a commendable
achievement. Delightfully, the Contact Center business continued to develop
surely and steadily.
Health technology is a growing and profitable business for Revenio. Of Revenio's
businesses, Icare Finland, which focuses on health technology, has achieved the
best growth in profitability and net sales in both the short and long term. The
company has accumulated a wealth of in-house expertise - and we now seek to
harness it. Thanks to our expertise in technology, we have become the
international product and cost leadership in tonometers. Our international
distribution network is highly effective, both operationally and financially. We
are very knowledgeable in official approval processes in different countries. By
focusing our resources on this highly developed and promising business area, we
are building a strong growth path for Revenio Group."
MARKET SITUATION
REVENIO HEALTH TECH
The Revenio Health Tech segment comprises Icare Finland Oy, the managing
director of which is Timo Hildén, which specializes in the development,
manufacture and sale of tonometers, as well as some functions that were
previously part of the Group's parent company. Olli-Pekka Salovaara, the Group's
President and CEO, heads up this business segment in addition to his other
tasks.
The Revenio Health Tech segment had a good market situation during the entire
financial year, and demand for its products grew substantially. The segment's
current main markets are in North America, Europe, Russia and selected Asian
countries, such as Japan and India. Thanks to the geographical structure of its
sales and the growing demand for its products, the segment's business operations
were not hindered by macroeconomic challenges, except in southern European
countries. There are a number of markets with major demand potential that the
company has not tapped into yet - particularly South America and China.
The bulk of current demand focuses on the first-generation Icare TA-01
tonometer. One key part of a tonometer is a disposable probe. Demand for these
probes increased substantially - and is expected to rise further in step with
the growth of the tonometer customer base. New emerging product groups are the
Icare Pro for specialist physicians and the Icare One self-tonometry device. The
latter device, intended for self-administered measurements at home, has
performed extremely well in medical studies on glaucoma treatment carried out by
many leading ophthalmologists. These studies are expected to influence the
development of glaucoma monitoring and treatment practices in the future, which
in turn will serve to improve demand for Icare tonometers.
It is estimated that more than 150 million people worldwide suffer from glaucoma
and that only about half of them have been diagnosed with the disease. As
healthcare systems develop, screening for glaucoma will become more common.
Traditionally, examinations for eye diseases have been the domain of
specialists. Icare's patented measuring technology enables mass screening. As
this becomes common, intraocular pressure measurements can also be performed by
general practitioners, optometrists, opticians and first-aid station staff.
This will give Icare the opportunity to expand its customer base. Legislation
on intraocular pressure measurement varies from country to country. For this
reason, Icare's global distribution network has been set up to serve exactly the
right target group in each country within the framework of local legislation.
Icare's measurement system has been extensively patented. The strongest
competitors are alternative technologies developed by competitors. The Icare
product family's advantages are technology and cost leadership.
Icare tonometers can also be used to measure the intraocular pressure of
animals. This target group also presents an attractive opportunity for
broadening Icare's customer base.
Icare's market position can be bolstered further by developing product features.
Development measures were launched during the review period with a view to
retaining the company's competitive advantage and generating revenue from
replacement purchases by customers seeking to update their devices. As the
customer base grows, so will the demand for productized maintenance services.
REVENIO TECHNOLOGY AND SERVICES
On December 1, 2012, the Revenio Technology and Services segment was formed from
four Group businesses and companies and some functions of the Group's parent
company. Riku Lamppu was appointed as the head of this segment. He is also the
CEO of Midas Touch Oy, which is part of this segment.
The businesses included in this segment are Software (Done Software Solutions),
Contact Center (Midas Touch), Information Displays (FLS Finland) and Rigid
Inflatable Boats (Boomeranger Boats).
Contact Center business
The market situation of the Contact Center business remained good during the
financial period. Market growth in this business was restrained, but the number
of inbound commissions - which are a core expertise area for the segment - is on
the rise. This paves the way for steady growth and enables business operations
to focus on outsourcing solutions for technical customer support and other
expert services. The market situation for outbound commissions, such as
telemarketing campaigns, was more challenging from a profitability perspective.
The market situation is also affected by the availability of suitable staff for
support tasks in the business localities, which was satisfactory in the Contact
Center business during the review period.
Rigid Inflatable Boats business
The market situation for rigid inflatable boats and outlook for their demand
improved slightly during the review period, in part due to the expansion of
tendering and customer orders to new customer accounts in different geographical
areas and user groups. New customer relationships with the authorities were
forged in countries such as Malta and the Netherlands. The general economic
situation in European countries did not affect the number of state defense and
rescue projects. When the Rigid Inflatable Boats business is vying for projects,
its competitors are often the same leading players - especially when these
projects are large. Disputes concerning public procurement decisions have
become more common, reflecting the tough competition between the leading players
in this field. This slows down dealings somewhat in the Rigid Inflatable Boats
business.
Information Displays business
The market situation for LED price displays was good, enabling the business to
post its best-ever annual sales. Demand primarily comprises small-scale projects
carried out on short schedules. Demand for procurements related to BP's multi-
year framework agreement developed favorably, as did demand in new market areas
such as Russia. Of the traditional market areas, demand was good in Sweden and
Finland. Demand for parking guidance systems was very modest.
Software business
The market situation of the Software business was good. Demand is affected by
gaining new customer projects and their scheduling. Carrying out pilot projects
for large customer corporations may create market potential for larger-scale
deployment projects in the future. The expansion of the installed software base
also increases the amount of small-scale development and maintenance work.
Competition for projects is considerable.
NET SALES, PROFITABILITY AND PROFIT
Consolidated net sales from Revenio Group's continuing operations for the period
from January 1 to December 31, 2012 were EUR 25.4 million (EUR 21.4 million),
showing an increase of 18.3 percent. Earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) from continuing operations amounted to
EUR 5.7 million (EUR 4.0 million), or 22.5 (18.8) percent of net sales.
Consolidated operating profit (EBIT) from continuing operations was EUR 4.9
million (EUR 3.3 million), representing 19.4 (15.6) percent of net sales. The
pre-tax result totaled EUR 4.7 million (EUR 3.0 million), or 18.5 (14.0) percent
of net sales. For continuing operations, consolidated net profit for the
financial year amounted to EUR 4.6 million (EUR 2.1 million), representing 18.0
(9.9) percent of net sales. Net profit for discontinued operations during the
financial year totaled EUR -4.8 million (EUR 1.8 million). Profit for the
financial year totaled EUR -0.3 million (EUR 3.9 million).
Undiluted earnings per share for continuing operations totaled EUR 0.059
(0.028), while dilution-adjusted earnings per share came to EUR 0.059 (0.027).
For discontinued operations, the undiluted and diluted earnings per share
totaled EUR -0.063 (0.023). Dilution-adjusted earnings per share for continuing
and discontinued operations during the financial year totaled EUR -0.004
(0.050). Equity per share was EUR 0.19 (0.21).
The net sales of continuing operations in Q4 came to EUR 7.7 million (EUR 5.7
million). Net sales were up 34.9 percent. Consolidated operating profit for Q4
from continuing operations amounted to EUR 1.4 million (EUR 0.7 million), or
18.2 (13.1) percent of net sales. The undiluted and diluted earnings per share
from continuing and discontinued operations in Q4 totaled EUR -0.008 (0.003).
In 2012, net sales of the Group's continuing operations grew 18.3 percent year-
on-year. Substantial net sales growth was seen in the Revenio Health Tech
segment as well as in the Information Displays and Software businesses of the
Revenio Technology and Services segment. In this segment, the Contact Center
business also achieved profitable growth in operations. The net sales of the
Rigid Inflatable Boats business declined due to the timing of orders and
production.
Both business segments posted higher operating profit than in the previous year.
On December 18, 2012, the Group decided to divest the Done Logistics Oy
business. As from that day, the company has been classified under discontinued
operations in consolidated reporting. This change in reporting also applies to
the reference years. The net profit of discontinued operations in the 2012
financial year consists of the net profit of Done Logistics Oy, a provision for
the expenses related to winding up operations and a write-down of the additional
sale price receivable from the divestment of Done Information Oy.
BALANCE SHEET, FINANCIAL POSITION AND INVESTMENTS
The consolidated balance sheet total on December 31, 2012 was EUR 25.0 million
(EUR 24.8 million). Shareholders' equity came to EUR 14.7 million (EUR 16.4
million). At the end of the financial year, interest-bearing net liabilities
totaled EUR -1.8 million (EUR -2.8 million) and gearing stood at -12.2 (-17.3)
percent. The consolidated equity ratio was 62.2 (66.6) percent. The Group's
liquid assets amounted to EUR 5.0 million (EUR 4.4 million) at the end of the
financial year.
Thanks to good financial development, the Group's financial position remained
stable throughout the financial year. During the financial year, the Group
withdrew a EUR 2.0 million standby-by credit and made arrangements for a EUR
2.0 million credit facility to replace the Group's checking account facility.
Cash flow from operating activities came to EUR 0.8 million (EUR 4.2 million).
Cash flow was increased by the profitability of continuing operations and
decreased by the profitability of discontinued operations and capital tied in
operations.
The Group's purchases of PPE and intangible assets totaled EUR 0.3 million (EUR
0.7 million). These investments were earmarked for production equipment,
information technology and software.
GROUP STRUCTURE
At the end of the financial year, Revenio Group comprised parent company Revenio
Group Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries, all active companies: Midas
Touch Oy, Done Logistics Oy, Done Software Solutions Oy, Icare Finland Oy,
Boomeranger Boats Oy, and FLS Finland Oy. Done Logistics Oy has been categorized
under discontinued operations.
In order to improve the effectiveness of the Group structure, the subsidiaries
of Midas Touch Oy - Midas Touch Media Oy, Midas Touch Gateway Oy, Midas Touch
Interactive Oy, Midas Touch Tech Oy, and Midas Touch Care Oy - were merged into
their parent company on February 29, 2012.
OPERATIONS BY BUSINESS SEGMENT
Revenio Group Corporation's business operations are organized into two segments:
Revenio Health Tech (Icare Finland) and Revenio Technology and Services (Midas
Touch, Done Software Solutions, Boomeranger Boats, and FLS Finland). At the end
of the financial year, Done Logistics was categorized under discontinued
operations. The structure is in line with the Group's organization and internal
reporting.
Revenio Health Tech
The Revenio Health Tech segment comprises Icare Finland, which specializes in
the development, manufacture and sale of tonometers, as well as some functions
that were previously part of the Group's parent company. Olli-Pekka Salovaara,
the Group's President and CEO, heads up this business segment in addition to his
other tasks.
In 2012, net sales of the Health Tech segment totaled EUR 11.1 million (EUR 8.9
million), up 23.8 percent. The operating profit of the Health Tech segment
amounted to EUR 4.4 million (EUR 3.5 million). Q4 net sales came to EUR 3.2
million (EUR 2.6 million) and operating profit to EUR 1.2 million (EUR 1.1
million).
As in earlier financial years, net sales and operating profit saw substantial
growth. In geographical terms, net sales growth was generated primarily by the
markets of the USA, Japan, the UK, Australia, Russia, India, Canada, Norway and
the Netherlands. The bulk of product sales comprised the Icare TA01 tonometer,
the company's main product, and its disposable probes, which saw substantial
growth in demand. The new products Icare One and Icare Pro are in the first
stages of their life cycle. Their sales growth was in line with other sales
trends. The US subsidiary that went into business in 2012 performed excellently
in meeting its sales and operational targets.
During the financial year, the company achieved additional visibility in
ophthalmology research and among the field's leading researchers. Icare products
were used in many major medical studies on glaucoma treatment and the
development of treatments.
Country-specific sales licenses play a key role in global tonometer sales.
During the review period, the company obtained a total of 28 new sales licenses
in different countries. These licenses lay the foundation for the future sales
development of new products in particular. The processing of sales licenses in
the USA was slower than anticipated. The license process for Icare One was
suspended for additional preparatory work. It is expected that the sales license
application will be resubmitted in 2013.
A new CEO took the helm at Icare Finland Oy during the review period. The
previous CEO, Ari Tiukkanen, took up a position at another company. The new CEO
is Timo Hildén, M.Econ, who has extensive work experience in management
positions in the healthcare industry. Prior to joining Icare Finland Oy, he
worked as Thermo Fisher Scientific Oy's CEO and director of global business for
liquid handling instruments.
Icare's export and R&D resources were bolstered during the financial year. The
company has launched projects to develop its current products with a view to
maintaining and enhancing their competitiveness in the years ahead. Quality
processes and procurements were developed further. Strategic work related to
Icare's growth opportunities as part of the healthcare segment was started up.
The projects aim to ensure further business growth and create new growth
opportunities.
The trend in the Revenio Health Tech segment's operating profit was favorable.
Thanks to the good development of net sales, the aforementioned development
measures did not burden profitability. In 2013, the Revenio Health Tech segment
will increase its outlays on development in order to pave the way for growth in
future financial periods.
Revenio Technology and Services
On December 1, 2012, the Revenio Technology and Services segment was formed from
four Group businesses and companies and some functions of the Group's parent
company. Riku Lamppu was appointed as the head of this segment. He is also the
CEO of Midas Touch Oy, which is part of this segment.
The businesses included in this segment are the Software business (Done Software
Solutions), Contact Center business (Midas Touch), Information Displays business
(FLS Finland), and Rigid Inflatable Boats business (Boomeranger Boats).
In 2012, the segment had net sales of EUR 14.3 million (EUR 12.5 million) and
operating profit of EUR 1.5 million (EUR 0.7 million). Q4 net sales came to EUR
4.5 million (EUR 3.0 million) and operating profit to EUR 0.5 million (EUR 0.1
million).
Net sales saw substantial growth in the Information Displays business and the
Software business, both of which posted their best-ever net sales. Net sales
also rose in the Contact Center business thanks to growth in inbound
commissions. Net sales declined in the Rigid Inflatable Boats business.
Net sales of the Information Displays business grew because exports more than
doubled compared with the previous year. Sales also grew in Finland. The
largest share of exports went to the Nordic countries, particularly Sweden, and
to continental Europe, especially Germany. Sales to Russia, a new export
country, were started.
Growth in the Software business was mainly due to projects carried out for two
major Finnish listed companies, higher income from maintenance fees and small-
scale development work for existing customers.
The strategy of the Contact Center business has been to increase the share of
operations accounted for by inbound commissions, as the outlook for such
commissions is more stable and they pose smaller trade cycle and business risks.
Inbound operations include, for example, solutions for technical customer
services and outsourced customer services. On the whole, net sales grew as the
number of inbound commissions rose and the number of outbound commissions
declined.
The net sales of the Rigid Inflatable Boats business saw a year-on-year decline
due to the slow order inflow in the first half of the year. The business gained
significant orders in the second half, which will have a favorable effect on net
sales in 2013. Major orders were received from both existing and new customers
and geographical areas, which is in line with the business strategy.
The major factors behind growth in the segment's operating profit were the
excellent profitability trends of the Information Displays and Software
businesses and the growth in the profitability of the Contact Center business.
In all these businesses, the profitability trend was driven by net sales growth
and very moderate cost development. Profitability went into the red in the Rigid
Inflatable Boats business, as orders materialized mainly in the latter half of
the year, and sales efforts were targeted at this financial period.
Net sales and segment's margin excluding non-
recurring items were as follows:

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING AND BOARD AUTHORIZATIONS IN EFFECT
The Annual General Meeting held on March 28, 2012 approved the company's
financial statements and discharged the members of the Board of Directors and
the President and CEO from liability for the financial year January 1 - December
31, 2011.
The AGM re-selected the following persons as members of the Board of Directors:
Timo Mänty, Pekka Tammela, Rolf Fryckman, Julia Ormio and Matti Hyytiäinen. The
AGM decided that the Chairman of the Board should be entitled to an annual
emolument of EUR 60,000 and the other Board members to an annual emolument of
EUR 36,000, with the exception that any member who holds a stake of at least
five percent in Revenio Group Corporation, either directly or through a company
in which he or she has a minimum holding of 50 percent, should not be entitled
to a separate emolument. In total, 40 percent of Board members' emoluments will
be settled in the form of shares in the company, while 60 percent will consist
of monetary payment.
The AGM re-elected PricewaterhouseCoopers Oy, Authorized Public Accountants, as
the company's auditors with Juha Tuomala, Authorized Public Accountant, acting
as the principal auditor.
The AGM decided to accept the Board's proposal on profit distribution, according
to which the profit for the financial period, EUR 2,056,691.01, will be added to
retained earnings, and a dividend of EUR 0.02 per share will be paid, totaling
EUR 1,531,342.42.
The AGM authorized the Board to make the decision to buy back a maximum of
7,688,973 of the company's own shares, in one or more installments, using the
company's unrestricted equity, in which case any buyback will reduce the amount
of company distributable earnings.
The AGM cancelled the Board of Directors' valid unexercised share-issue
authorizations, and authorized the Board to decide to issue a maximum of
30,000,000 shares or to grant special rights (including stock options) entitling
to shares, as referred to in Section 1 of Chapter 10 of the Limited Liability
Companies Act, in one or several tranches. This authorization was granted to be
used to finance and implement any prospective corporate acquisitions or other
transactions, to implement the company's share-based incentive plans, or for
other purposes determined by the Board. The Board has the right to decide on all
terms and conditions governing said share issue and the granting of special
rights, including the subscribers or grantees of the special rights, and the
consideration payable. The Board's authorization includes the right to waive
shareholders' preemptive subscription rights and covers the issue of new shares
and the transfer of any shares that may be held by the company. This
authorization will be valid until April 30, 2013.

MAJOR BUSINESS RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
Revenio Group's risks are defined as strategic, operational, trade cycle,
hazard, and financial risks.
The Group's strategic risks include competition in all sectors, the threat posed
by new competing products, and any other actions of the company's rivals that
may affect the competitive situation. Another factor posing a strategic risk is
related to success in R&D operations and, therefore, preservation of the product
range's competitiveness. In the Group's sectors, requiring particular expertise
in accordance with the strategy, essential risks also include those related to
the retention and development of key personnel as well as dependence on the
operational ability of the subcontractor and supplier network.
Corporate acquisitions are part of the Group's strategy. The success of these
acquisitions has a significant impact on the reaching of growth and
profitability targets. Acquisitions may also change the Group's risk profile.
Strategic risks and the need for action are regularly assessed and are monitored
in connection with day-to-day management, monthly Group reporting, and annual
strategy updates.
Operational risks are associated with the retention and development of major
customers, the operations of the distribution network and success in extending
the customer base and markets. In the Revenio Health Tech segment especially,
operational risks include factors related to expansion into new markets, such as
various countries' regulation of sales licenses for medical instruments imposed
at national level and the related official decisions concerning the health care
market.
The operational risks related to the manufacture, product development, and
production control of medical instruments are estimated to be higher than
average in the Revenio Health Tech segment, because of that sector's
requirements concerning quality.
Project-based operations, mainly carried out in the Revenio Technology and
Services segment, involve exposure to operational risks related to the
management of demanding end-to-end deliveries, which may concern the company's
own project work, subcontractors and suppliers.
The share of deferred tax assets in the assets item of the consolidated balance
sheet is significant. Changes in business profitability and in both tax
legislation and its interpretation could lead to changes in the availability and
amount of deferred tax assets.
Hazard risks are covered by insurances. Property insurance and insurance against
interruptions to business provide protection against risks in these areas. The
business pursued is covered by international liability insurances.
Financial risks consist of credit, interest, liquidity, and foreign exchange
risks. To manage credit loss risks, the Group has taken out credit insurance
covering all companies in the Group. Every month, and more frequently if
necessary, the Board, in its meetings, assesses matters related to financial
issues. If required, the Board provides decisions and guidelines for the
management of financial risks concerning interest-rate and currency hedging, for
instance. The liquidity risk can be affected by the availability of external
financing, the development of the Group's credit standing, the trend in business
operations and changes in the payment behavior of customers. Liquidity risks
are monitored by means of cash forecasts, which are drawn up for periods of 12
months at most at a time.
MAJOR EVENTS AFTER THE PERIOD
The company's number of shares rose to 77,110,790 on January 31, 2013 due to the
subscription of a total of 181,060 shares with 2007 B and C options.
Done Logistics Oy, which is categorized under discontinued operations, divested
part of its business operations to Amipac Oy on February 7, 2013. The
transaction did not have a significant effect on the Group's financial position.
OUTLOOK FOR 2013
In continuing operations, consolidated net sales and operating profit excluding
non-recurring items are expected to see year-on-year growth.
THE BOARD'S PROPOSAL TO THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
The consolidated net profit for the year totaled EUR -287 thousand and that of
the parent company EUR 1,545,444.10. The parent company's distributable earnings
on December 31, 2012 totaled EUR 14,469,251.77. The Board of Directors will
propose to the Annual General Meeting on March 21, 2013, that the parent
company's distributable earnings be allocated as follows:
- A per-share dividend of EUR 0.02, for a total of 1,536,675.74, against the
total number of shares on the balance sheet date, will be distributed.
- in addition, the Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting
authorize the Board of Directors to distribute funds to shareholders, at its own
discretion, as a capital repayment from the invested unrestricted equity
reserve. The maximum amount of funds that can be distributed on the basis of the
authorization would be EUR 1,000,000.00.
The rest of the distributable retained earnings will be entered under equity.
In the Board's opinion, the proposed dividend distribution does not endanger the
parent company's or Group's liquidity.
