New software sales by QPR are increasingly made through software rentals rather than perpetual license sales, which is reflected as decline in software license net sales and increase in software rental net sales. In Finland, clear majority of new sales are made on a rental basis. Internationally, the transition is still ongoing.
In the second quarter, software license net sales decreased 37%, which the growth of 44% in software rental net sales was not able to fully compensate. Net sales from software maintenance services declined 8%, mainly due to exchange rate changes. Net sales from professional services increased 10%, as especially net sales from enterprise architecture services grew strongly.
Total recurring revenue (net sales from software maintenance services and software rentals) grew 5% in the second quarter. The growth in recurring revenues was slowed down by exchange rate changes in maintenance service revenues. The share of recurring revenue of total net sales increased to 50% (46).
Net sales by product group in January-June also developed similarly as in the second quarter. QPR expects net sales from professional services to grow during the rest of the year, compared to the level in the first half of the year, especially in the enterprise architecture services.

In April, QPR Software published an agreement with CGI, the leading IT and business process services company, for a new process analysis service based on QPR ProcessAnalyzer software product. With the service, CGI will be able to show their customers the real state of their processes and help support them in reaching operational efficiency. For QPR, the partnership gives the opportunity to bring QPR ProcessAnalyzer to a larger audience.

SHORT-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
Internal control and risk management in QPR Software aims to ensure that the Company operates efficiently and effectively, distributes reliable information, complies with regulations and operational principles, reaches its strategic goals, reacts to changes in the market and operational environment, and ensures the continuity of its business.
QPR has identified the following four groups of risks related to its operations: risks related to business operations (country, customer, service delivery, personnel, legal and financial risks as well as risks related to the Company’s resellers), risks related to information and products (QPR products, IPR, data security), risks related to financing (foreign currency, bad debt), and risks related to new businesses (growth of new business, product development investments in new business). The Company has an insurance policy for property, operational and liability risks. The Company monitors country, customer, personnel and finance risks also in the Russian subsidiary OOO QPR Software.
Financial risks include reasonable credit risk concerning individual business partners, which is characteristic to any international business. QPR seeks to limit this credit risk by continuous monitoring of standard payment terms, receivables and credit limits. The escalated economic crisis in the euro area has, according to management’s estimate, to some extent increased the credit risk that has earlier remained on a moderate level, and has resulted in increased credit losses. During the current year, however, the amount of credit losses and overdue receivables has been clearly lower than in the previous year. In January-June, EUR 21 thousand (149) of credit losses were recorded. The amount of trade receivables over 60 days past due was 7% (10) of total trade receivables at the end of the quarter.
Approximately 65% of Group’s trade receivables were in euro at the end of the quarter. At the end of the quarter, the Company had not hedged its foreign currency (non-euro) trade receivables.
No significant changes have taken place in the Company’s short-term risks and uncertainties during January-June. Risks and risk management related to the Company’s business are further described in the Annual Report 2012, pages 14-15 (www.qpr.com/investors/key-figures-and-reports.htm).
OUTLOOK 2013
QPR estimates its net sales in 2013 to remain on the same level or to grow slightly compared to previous year (2012: EUR 9.3 million). Especially net sales from software rentals and enterprise architecture services are expected to grow, but software license net sales to decrease. Operating profit is estimated to be lower than in previous year (2012: EUR 0.9 million), but to improve significantly from the level in January-June 2013.
In 2013, the Company aims to continue investments in the development of its new software products. In recent years, QPR has launched two new software products that have excellent growth prospects. The strong growth of QPR EnterpriseArchitect business in Finland is estimated to continue, and in 2013 the Company is building a new international reseller network for the product. QPR EnterpriseArchitect is software for agile management of all dimensions in the enterprise architecture. The Company also continues investing into the growth of its new QPR ProcessAnalyzer software product that offers a fast way to automatically discover processes by using data stored in the IT systems of an organization.
The Company is also developing its professional service offering, with the aim to grow its local business in Finland and to accelerate its international software sales. Internationally, this happens by offering complementary service concepts and solutions to the Company’s reseller partners.

NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
ACCOUNTING PRICIPLES
This report complies with requirements of IAS 34 ”Interim Financial Reporting”. Starting from the beginning of 2013, the Company has applied certain new or revised IFRS standards and IFRIC interpretations as described in the Consolidated Financial Statements 2012. The implementation of these new and revised requirements have not materially impacted the reported figures. For all other parts, the accounting and valuation principles are the same as they were in the 2012 financial statements.
When preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions regarding the future and to consider the appropriate application of accounting principles, which means that actual results may differ from those estimated.
All amounts presented in this report are consolidated figures, unless otherwise noted. The amounts presented in the report are rounded, so the sum of individual figures may differ from the sum reported. This report is unaudited.
During the reporting period, the Group did not have any financial instruments measured at fair value.
