Net sales grew by 5% to 38.3 MEUR (36.6 MEUR). Highest growth was achieved in Denmark, but also Norway and Sweden grew nicely. The general market sentiment was more positive than during the earlier quarters. Sales of consultant work developed well and also the sales of 3rd-party license sales clearly exceeded last year. Operating profit was 4.5 MEUR (2.8 MEUR) making this the best ever Q4 for Affecto. Also Sweden made profit. Despite the weak general macroeconomic sentiment year 2012 was good for Affecto. We achieved all time highest net sales MEUR (127.3 MEUR) and also improved our profitability. Operating profit grew to 10.5 MEUR (8.2 MEUR) and EPS to 37 cents (26 cents). Development during 2012 was mainly positive. Customers' cautiousness regarding investment decisions marked the year, but we were still able to grow by 5%. We had challenges with the profitability in Sweden, but our other units performed well. 15% profitability reached in Finland is excellent, and the 11-12% in Norway, Denmark and Baltic is also a good performance. We start year 2013 confidently. Thanks to the strong sales in the last quarter, Affecto's order backlog grew to a new record 61.4 MEUR (57.1 MEUR), which gives a good foundation for year However, the Euro crisis and uncertainty regarding the general economy continue, so the year may resemble last year and we do not believe in rapid growth during the early months. Achieving good sales growth will likely be challenging also this year. Operating profit and net sales are estimated to grow in Additional information: CEO Pekka Eloholma, CFO Satu Kankare, SVP, M&A, IR, Hannu Nyman,

The quarter was good regarding sales and the general market sentiment seemed to be clearly more positive than during the third quarter.

Operational segment result by reportable segments Operational segment result, MEUR 10-12/ / Finland Norway Sweden Denmark Baltic Other Operational segment result IFRS3 Amortization Operating profit

3 3 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS BULLETIN 2012 The fluctuation in financial costs is explained to a large extent by changes in the fair value of the interest swap taken, which changes have no effect on actual cash flow. Change in the fair value of the interest swap agreement has caused 0.1 MEUR income in 10-12/2012 (0.1 MEUR). Taxes corresponding to the profit of the period have been entered as tax expense. Net profit for the period was 3.3 MEUR, while it was 2.0 MEUR last year. YEAR 2012 Affecto is the forerunner in the field of Enterprise Information Management in the Northern Europe. Our solutions for information management and business analytics help organisations to improve productivity and competitiveness with superior use of information in decision making and execution. We also deliver operational solutions for improving and simplifying processes at customer organisations and offer geographic information services. Affecto s head office is in Finland. The company has subsidiaries in Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Poland and South Africa. NET SALES Affecto's net sales in 2012 were MEUR (Year 2011: MEUR). Net sales in Finland were 52.6 MEUR (50.3 MEUR), in Norway 27.2 MEUR (27.8 MEUR), in Sweden 24.0 MEUR (21.5 MEUR), in Denmark 16.0 MEUR (14.1 MEUR) and 16.7 MEUR (16.2 MEUR) in Baltic. Net sales grew by 5%. Highest growth was achieved in Denmark (14%), but also all other countries grew with the exception of Norway. The year was characterized by uncertainty about general economy, which slowed down customers' investment decisions and affected especially the third quarter negatively. However, in general term the business developed rather steadily. Sales of the third-party licenses, sold with the solutions, clearly decreased during the early part of the year, but thanks to the strong last quarter the full-year sales fell only moderately. The achieved growth in net sales was mainly due to growth in sales of consultant work. Net sales of Information Management Solutions business were MEUR (116.8 MEUR) and net sales of Karttakeskus GIS business were 11.9 MEUR (11.5 MEUR). Order backlog grew to 61.4 MEUR, 7% above last year (57.1 MEUR). The order backlog is estimated to contain more long-term projects than earlier. PROFIT Affecto's operating profit was 10.5 MEUR (8.2 MEUR) and the operational segment result was 12.5 MEUR (10.2 MEUR). Operational segment result was in Finland 7.7 MEUR (6.8 MEUR), in Norway 3.3 MEUR (3.1 MEUR), in Sweden -0.9 MEUR (-2.1 MEUR), in Denmark 1.8 MEUR (1.6 MEUR) and in Baltic 2.0 MEUR (2.1 MEUR). Operating profit was 8% of net sales and profitability increased clearly from the previous year (6%). Sales of consultant work increased more than the personnel costs improving profitability. Small decrease in license sales affected profit negatively. Profitability increased in almost all countries, and the 15% profitability reached in Finland is excellent, and the 11-12% in Norway, Denmark and Baltic is also a good performance. In Sweden the loss decreased from last year and the last quarter was positive also there. Development actions in Sweden continue and the goal is to achieve normal profitability also there, but structural and operational changes for the business will take some time. According to the IFRS3 requirements, operating profit includes 2.1 MEUR (2.0 MEUR) of amortization on intangible assets related to acquisitions. The IFRS3 amortization is estimated to be approx. 2.0 MEUR per year until 2014, as the other intangible assets impacting in the IFRS3 amortization totaled 3.9 MEUR at the end of the reporting period.

4 4 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS BULLETIN 2012 R&D costs totaled 0.1 MEUR (0.7 MEUR), i.e. 0.1% of net sales (0.6%). These costs have been recognized as an expense in the income statement. The fluctuation in financial costs is explained to a large extent by changes in the fair value of the interest swap taken, which changes have no effect on actual cash flow. Change in the fair value of the interest swap agreement has caused 0.5 MEUR income (0.3 MEUR). Taxes corresponding to the profit of the period have been entered as tax expense. Net profit for the period was 7.6 MEUR, while it was 5.3 MEUR last year. FINANCE AND INVESTMENTS At the end of the reporting period Affecto's balance sheet totaled MEUR (145.1 MEUR). Equity ratio was 50.6% (46.1%) and net gearing was 15.8% (27.1%). The financial loans were 30.5 MEUR (34.5 MEUR) at the end of reporting period. The company's cash and liquid assets were 19.8 MEUR (18.0 MEUR). The interest-bearing net debt was 10.6 MEUR (16.4 MEUR). Cash flow from operating activities for the reported period was 9.1 MEUR (9.7 MEUR) and cash flow from investing activities was -1.0 MEUR (-2.1 MEUR). Investments in tangible and intangible assets were 1.0 MEUR (1.4 MEUR). The Annual General Meeting held in April decided to distribute a dividend of 2.4 MEUR (1.3 MEUR). EMPLOYEES The number of employees was 1096 persons at the end of the reporting period (1061). 416 employees were based in Finland, 131 in Norway, 140 in Sweden, 69 in Denmark and 340 in the Baltic countries. The average number of employees during the period was 1089 (1011 in 2011, 919 in 2010). Wages and salaries were 60.2 MEUR (57.4 MEUR in 2011, 52.6 MEUR in 2010). Rene Lykkeskov was appointed as the country manager for Sweden in September. REVIEW OF MARKET DEVELOPMENTS Uncertainty about the general economic development affected Affecto's business negatively in Customers' decision-making pace was slower than normally, which decreased Affecto's growth. The effect was especially visible in the third quarter. The sales of third-party licenses decreased during the early part of the year, which may have been caused by customers preferring to invest in further development of existing solutions instead of investing in totally new solutions. License sales recovered in the final months of the year. In general, there has been no significant negative change in the market situation regarding our core markets. Enterprise Information Management (EIM) solutions are seen as tools for improving operational efficiency, so investments in them are expected to continue. The demand for EIM solutions, including Business Intelligence (BI) and Enterprise Content Management (ECM), is estimated to continue growing more rapidly than the general IT services. The analyst forecasts for the average annual growth of BI and analytics software license markets are approx. 6-8% in the next few years. The Nordic EIM services markets are estimated to grow annually by 6-8% on average. However, market growth estimates for 2012 and 2013 are smaller. The scope of EIM solutions continues to evolve, and the new offerings like Master Data Management (MDM), Data Quality and Collaborative Decision Making will increase their role in the solution offering. BUSINESS REVIEW BY AREAS The group's business is managed through five country units. Finland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Baltic are also the reportable segments. The net sales in Finland grew by 5% to 52.6 MEUR (50.3 MEUR). Net sales of consultant work grew, while net sales of licenses decreased. Operational segment result was 7.7 MEUR (6.8 MEUR). Profitability increased to 15%, an excellent level. Customers' cautiousness in decision making was clearly visible during

5 5 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS BULLETIN 2012 the third quarter, but the business climate and customers' activity improved somewhat during the last months. As a whole, the year was good and development pretty steady. Largest deals in the review period were an agreement regarding the maintenance and development of Yleisradio's (The Finnish Broadcasting Company) in January and agreements with an energy sector, a media sector and a public sector customer in December. The net sales of Karttakeskus GIS business, reported as part of Finland, grew slightly to 11.9 MEUR (11.5 MEUR) and its profitability was excellent. Largest deal in the review period was the GIS outsourcing agreement for one additional year with the Finnish Agency for Rural Affairs in April. The net sales in Norway were 27.2 MEUR (27.8 MEUR) and operational segment result was 3.3 MEUR (3.1 MEUR). Net sales decreased by 2%, but profitability increased to 12%. Customers' interest for solutions including offshore/nearshore work has grown. Customers' cautiousness was clearly visible during the early part of the year, but the business climate and customers' activity seem to have somewhat improved by the end of the year. Order backlog is at a good level, but contains more long-term projects than earlier. Largest deals in the review period were the agreements with Santander Consumer Bank in April and November and an agreement with Dacon in December. The net sales in Sweden were 24.0 MEUR (21.5 MEUR) and operational segment result -0.9 MEUR (-2.1 MEUR). The net sales grew by 11%, but the profit development was disappointing. Profit improved compared to the previous year but was still negative, although the last quarter was positive. The country manager for Sweden was changed in September. Largest deal in the review period was an agreement on cooperation in developing Toyota Material Handling Europe AB s (TMHE) Corporate Performance Management (CPM) solution in February. The net sales in Denmark were 16.0 MEUR (14.1 MEUR) and operational segment result was 1.8 MEUR (1.6 MEUR). Net sales grew by 14% and profitability remained at previous year's level of 11%. After a cautious start to the year the market climate seems to have improved and the customers' activity to have grown somewhat during the year. License sales picked up during the last quarter. The net sales in Baltic (Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Poland, South Africa) were 16.7 MEUR (16.2 MEUR). Operational segment result was 2.0 MEUR (2.1 MEUR). Net sales grew by 3% and profitability was 12%. Slower than planned finalisation of certain projects affected profitability negatively. Business conditions seem to be more normal and optimistic than in the Nordic countries. The EU continues to have great importance in financing both public and also private investments. Largest deals in the review period were a new project agreement with Statistics Lithuania in February and an agreement with Port of Klaipeda in November.

As at 31 December 2012 Affecto Plc's share capital consisted of shares. The company owned treasury shares and Affecto Management Oy owned shares. In 2012 the highest share price was 3.00 euro, the lowest price 2.39 euro, the average price 2.73 euro and the closing price 2.95 euro. The trading volume was 4.9 million shares, corresponding to 23% of the number of shares at the end of the period. The market value of shares was 63.3 MEUR at the end of the period including the shares owned by Affecto Management Oy but excluding the treasury shares. 2008B options have been listed on Nasdaq OMX Helsinki since 2 April The 2006 option program expired on 31 December 2012 without subscriptions made with the options.

7 7 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS BULLETIN 2012 According to the flagging announcement made on 25 April 2012, the ownership of funds managed by Danske Invest Fund Management Ltd. has exceeded 5%. ASSESSMENT OF RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES The changes in the general economic conditions and the operating environment of customers have direct impact in Affecto's markets. The Euro crisis may affect Affecto's customers negatively and their slower investment decision making, postponing or cancellation of IT investments may have negative impact on Affecto. Slower decision making by customers may decrease the predictability of the business and may decrease the utilisation rate of resources. Affecto's order backlog has traditionally been only for a few months, which decreases the reliability of longer-term forecasts. Affecto sells third party software licenses as part of its solutions. Typically the license sales have most impact on the last month of each quarter and especially in the fourth quarter. This increases the fluctuation in net sales between quarters and increases the difficulty of accurately forecasting the quarters. Affecto had license sales of approx. 10 MEUR in Affecto s balance sheet includes a material amount of goodwill. Goodwill has been allocated to cash generating units. Cash generating units, to which goodwill has been allocated, are tested for impairment both annually and whenever there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. Potential impairment losses may have material effect on reported profit and value of assets. The greatest uncertainty is related to Sweden. Approximately a half of Affecto's business is in Sweden, Norway and Denmark, thus the development of the currencies of these countries (SEK, NOK and DKK) may have impact on Affecto's profitability. The main part of the companies' income and costs are within the same currency, which decreases the risks. Affecto's success depends also on good customer relationships. Affecto has a well-diversified customer base. Although none of the customers is critically large for the whole group, there are large customers in various countries who are significant for local business in the country. Affecto's bank loan has covenants, the breach of which may lead to higher financing costs or even the termination of the loan. The covenants are based on total net debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and total net debt to total equity. Affecto's continued success is very much dependent on its management team and personnel. The loss of the services of any member of its senior management or other key employee could have a negative impact on Affecto's business and the ability of the company to implement its strategy. In addition, Affecto's success depends on its ability to hire, develop, train, motivate and retain skilled professionals on its staff. DIVIDEND PROPOSAL Distributable funds of the group parent company on 31 December 2012 are euros, of which the distributable profit is euros. Board of Directors proposes that from the financial year 2012 a dividend of 0.16 euros per share will be paid, a total of euros with the outstanding number of shares at the end of the financial period, and the rest is carried forward to the retained earnings account. No material changes have taken place in respect of the company s financial position after the balance sheet date. The liquidity of the company is good and in the opinion of the Board of Directors proposed distribution of profit does not risk the liquidity of the company. FUTURE OUTLOOK Operating profit and net sales are estimated to grow in The company does not provide exact guidance for net sales or EBIT development, as single projects and timing of license sales may have large impact on quarterly sales and profit.
