Building & Construction
Tekla's Building & Construction business area (B&C) develops and markets the
Tekla Structures software product. Designed for Building Information Modeling
(BIM), Tekla Structures is a 3D tool that offers open integration with other
programs and models imported from them, supporting all the phases of the
construction process. The software is a comprehensive solution for structural
engineering, design and production of steel structures and precast units,
reinforced concrete detailing as well as site and construction management.
Tekla's position as a supplier of 3D modeling software is strong and the number
of users is increasing further. Customers in the building industry are seeking
tools like Tekla's products that make their operations more efficient.
Information modeling is gaining a stronger foothold in structural design and
other stages of the building process. The benefits of information modeling are
seen more clearly in site management in particular.
Tekla launched the free Tekla BIMsight application in February 2011 in order to
promote BIM-based cooperation and project management in the construction
industry. With the new application, the different parties involved in the
project can easily combine their models created using different software and
understand each other's designs. The application can be used for checking for
clashes in the structures, commenting on the models and marking the required
changes in them. The entire project can be reviewed with the help of a single
illustrative 3D combination model. User feedback has been positive. In the first
phase, the application was released in English. An expanded Tekla BIMsight
application was launched in October.
The net sales of B&C amounted to 37.26 (30.87) million euros for January-
September 2011. The growth in net sales was 20.7% compared to the corresponding
period the previous year. B&C's operating result improved clearly, amounting to
9.15 (5.97) million euros. B&C's operating result percentage was 24.6% (19.3%).
B&C's net sales increased by 10.8% during the third quarter, to 11.83 (10.68)
million euros. The operating result was 2.88 (3.05) million euros, or 24.3%
(28.6%) of net sales.
International operations accounted for 94% (95%) of B&C's net sales in January-
September 2011. The market areas with the most success in license sales were
Western Europe, the Far East and the Nordic countries. The United States and
India continued to be the largest individual markets.
It is very favorable for Tekla that the building industry's move to information-
model-based 3D processes from traditional 2D ways of working continues. Because
of this, the business area's long-term outlook continues to be promising.
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is globally consolidating its position in
the building industry. BIM means that the information of the product model is
transferred and shared between the parties of the construction process. This
expands the cooperation between the parties of the construction process. In
order to facilitate cooperation, the interoperability of software is increased
further and data exchange between software systems is improved, so that
customers are able to choose the product that is suited the best for a specific
task.
In July, a new functionality was introduced in Tekla Structures: the
Construction Management module includes the tools for organizing and breaking
down the model as well as scheduling and schedule monitoring.
Measures against software piracy continued both by own efforts and in
cooperation with other parties, such as BSA. The efforts are increasingly
bearing fruit.
Tekla Structure 17, the main version launched in February, features improved
clash checking, organizing, viewing, snapping, commenting and project managing
functions.
Infra & Energy
The Infra & Energy business area develops and markets Tekla Solutions to
customers in the infrastructure and energy industries. The software solutions
contain high-end process support tools for customers' core processes, from
planning to construction, operation and maintenance, and for customer service
needs. I&E's customers operate in energy distribution, public administration,
and civil engineering. Tekla Solutions offering promotes Tekla's aim to sell its
software to new customers and new types of customer segments in Finland and
abroad.
In the energy industry, information system acquisitions are strategic
investments for the companies. Climate change and the endeavor towards
sustainable development set new requirements for the industry, e.g., with new
energy production methods becoming more common and partial decentralization of
production. New technologies, smart grids and software solutions hold a key role
in achieving these objectives. Tekla's market position as a supplier of energy
distribution information systems is strong in the Nordic and Baltic countries.
Improved and more extensive utilization of information technology is seen to be
a key solution for achieving efficiency, self-services and thereby cost-savings.
Citizens' services are being extensively migrated into the Web, and the
accessibility of the services can also be improved this way. Tekla's sales and
market position remained strong in Finland.
I&E's net sales amounted to 10.12 (10.11) million euros for January-September
2011. Its operating result was 0.27 (0.89) million euros. I&E's operating result
percentage was 2.7% (8.8%). International operations accounted for 36% (33%) of
net sales.
Net sales for the third quarter amounted to 3.06 (2.95) million euros, and
operating result was 0.32 (0.23) million euros, or 10.5% of net sales. For Infra
& Energy, the third quarter met expectations. Net sales increased slightly on
the previous year. The order backlog remained strong.
An agreement on the delivery of Tekla's district heating solution was made with
Turku Energia, Finland. Expanding the use of the Tekla NIS and Tekla DMS systems
was agreed on with Latvenergo, Latvia. Agreements were signed with the Finnish
companies Pori Energia and Kuopion Energia on the delivery of AMR integrations.
Several agreements on the implementation and development of e-services were
concluded in the field of public administration.
With regard to product development, the FLIR (Fault Location Isolation
Restoration) project related to the development of electricity distribution
network automation was completed on schedule and implemented in Vattenfall
Verkko Oy, Finland. This functionality significantly enhances the performance of
distribution companies' operation centers in situations such as storms where
failures can momentarily reach very high quantities.
The first parts of the collaboration project with Vattenfall Europe to develop
support for network documentation and planning in the Tekla NIS system were
completed.
PERSONNEL
Tekla Group personnel averaged 497 (456) for January-September 2011; on average
193 (184) worked outside Finland. In these figures, the number of part-time
staff has been converted to correspond to full-time work contribution. At the
beginning of the year, Tekla personnel totaled 490 (466) including part-time
staff, of whom 188 (192) worked outside Finland, and at the end of September
534 (487), of whom 202 (186) worked outside Finland.
During the third quarter, the number of personnel increased by 20 persons.
Additional recruitments in both R&D and the customer interface aim to ensure
long-term growth.
PUBLIC TENDER OFFER OF TRIMBLE AND RELATED REDEMPTION PROCEEDINGS
The final result of the public tender offer made by Trimble Navigation Limited's
subsidiary Trimble Finland Oy was published on June 30, 2011. According to it,
the shares tendered represented approximately 99.46 percent of all the shares
and votes in Tekla. The trades were executed on July 5, 2011, and the ownership
to the shares was transferred to Trimble Finland on July 8, 2011, and Tekla
became part of Trimble.
Since Trimble Finland's intention is to acquire all the shares in Tekla, it
initiated the compulsory redemption proceedings for the remaining shares in
Tekla under the Finnish Companies Act. The District Court of Espoo appointed a
trustee to supervise the interest of the minority shareholders of Tekla
Corporation in the redemption proceedings. Tekla issued a stock exchange release
on the appointment of the trustee on September 9, 2011.
The appointment of an arbitral tribunal was announced after the end of the
reporting period (November 17, 2011). The redemption board of the Central
Chamber of Commerce appointed upon the application by Trimble Finland Oy a one-
member arbitral tribunal in the arbitration proceedings regarding the redemption
of minority shares in Tekla Corporation. LL.D. Pekka Timonen was appointed as
the only member of the arbitral tribunal. The arbitral tribunal shall decide
upon, among other things, the existence of the redemption right and the
redemption price for the shares subject to the arbitral proceedings.

SHORT-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTY FACTORS
Possible risks and uncertainty factors associated with Tekla's business are
mainly related to the market and competition situation and the general economic
situation. Trends in the building industry vary in different market areas.
Global uncertainty and market caution have increased.
A majority of Tekla's net sales is comprised of sales of licenses entitling to
use software products. Fluctuation in their demand can be rapid and significant.
In the short term and with rapidly decreasing demand, it is challenging to
proportion fixed personnel expenses, which account for the majority of Tekla's
costs. Tekla is, however, able to react swiftly to growing demand, and profits
from additional sales are good.
The sales of Tekla software are geographically distributed. In addition,
individual customers do not account for a significant share of net sales, and
therefore such risks are not essential.
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
Tekla Corporation's Annual General Meeting was held on April 6, 2011. The
resolutions of the AGM were published in a stock exchange release on April
6, 2011.
The AGM authorized the Board to decide on the repurchase and transfer of company
shares and share issues. The Board has not exercised the above mentioned
authorizations.
Furthermore, the Annual General Meeting authorized the Board to decide on the
distribution of additional dividend and/or distribution of the non-restricted
equity fund for a total of up to 18,000,000 euros. The Board of Directors
exercised the authorization and announced on June 28, 2011 that an additional
dividend of 0.80 euros will be paid. The dividend record date was July 1, 2011
and the payment date July 8, 2011. According to the terms of the combination
agreement between Trimble and Tekla and the public tender offer made by Trimble,
the distribution of funds resulted in a corresponding reduction of Trimble's
offer price to 14.20 euros per share.
EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD
Notice to an Extra General Meeting was given on November 7, 2011. The meeting
will be held on Monday, November 28, 2011. The meeting will decide on changing
the composition of the company's Board of Directors as proposed by Trimble
Finland Oy, with Mr. Rajat Bahri to be elected as a new member to the Board for
the remaining term to replace Ari Kohonen. The proposal also includes that no
change will be made on the number of members, and that the members elected by
the Annual General Meeting last spring, i.e. Olli-Pekka Laine, Erkki Pehu-
Lehtonen, Saku Sipola and Reijo Sulonen, would continue as board members. Timo
Keinänen would continue as a deputy member. In accordance with the articles of
association, the nominated personnel representative Juha Kajanen would continue
with Kirsi Hakkila as his deputy.
OUTLOOK FOR 2011
The Board of Directors continues to expect net sales to increase by 15% or more,
while the operating result is expected to exceed 20% of net sales. The estimates
are based on actual growth in net sales and Tekla's market position.
NEXT FINANCIAL REPORT

NOTES TO THE INTERIM REPORT
The notes are presented in millions of Euros, unless otherwise stated.
This interim report has been prepared in accordance with the IAS 34
(Interim Financial
Reporting) standard. The same accounting and valuation policies and methods
of
computation have been followed in the interim financial statements as in
the annual
financial statements for 2010. The amendments and interpretations to
published standards
as well as new standards, effective January 1, 2011, are presented in
detail in the financial
statements for 2010.
The figures presented in the Interim Report are
unaudited.
Use of estimates
When preparing the interim report, the Group's management is required to
make estimates
and assumptions influencing the content of the interim report, and it must
exercise its
judgment regarding the application of accounting policies. Although these
estimates are
based on the management's best knowledge, actual results may ultimately
differ from the
estimates used in the interim report. Tax losses carried forward are
recognized as deferred
tax assets only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable
profits will be available
against which unused tax losses can be utilized. Actual results could
differ from those
estimates.
