Note: During the first half of 2007 it was decided to divest the
auSystems division and close down the operations in Japan. According to
IFRS, auSystems and the Japanese operations are reported as discontinuedoperations, implying that all current financial and other key numbers
for the reporting period as well as comparison figures are reported
separated from the continuing business. Net operating earnings from
auSystems and Japan and the preliminary result from a sale of auSystems
are reported as a single amount on the face of the income statement.
·  The consulting business reported operating earnings (EBIT) of SEK 21
million (44) and an 8% operating margin (13%) for the second quarter. Q2
had 1 less available working day than Q1. This corresponds to an effect
of about 1.6 percentage point on the operating margin. The consulting
business reported revenues of SEK 277 million (328), an increase of 1%
over the first quarter.
·  The operating earnings for the second quarter were SEK -55 million.
Major changes in Teleca's cost base were implemented during the quarter.
From quarter three, costs in Products are estimated to be about SEK 60
million lower compared to the second quarter. Teleca will continue to
manage its cost down to match declining product revenue.
·  Teleca focuses on the services business to the top 5 OEMs and their
key technology suppliers and these accounted for 82% (77) of total
revenue. Order intake improved for the group in the quarter and order
backlog increased 27% in the quarter, excluding outsourcing from Russia
where the order intake due to seasonal impact has been traditionally
very high in Q2.
