Operating profit was up 50.2 % on the comparison period and amounted to EUR 0.31 million (EUR 0.20 million), which represents 1.9 % of net sales (1.2 %). Earnings per share were EUR -0.01 (EUR 0.00). NET SALES AND PROFIT DEVELOPMENT Wulff-Group Plc's net sales saw a year-over-year growth of 8.0 %. The Group's net sales in January-September 2008 amounted to EUR 56.0 million (EUR 51.9 million). The net sales were boosted by well-continued contract sales and the acquisition of Entre Marketing in May 2007. Wulff-Group's operating profit was EUR 1.54 million (EUR 1.31 million), representing 2.7 % (2.5 %) of net sales. Profit before extraordinary items increased to EUR 0.84 million (EUR 0.78 million). Net profit after financial expenses and minority interests amounted to amounted to EUR 0.07 million (EUR 0.41 million). Earnings per share (EPS) were EUR 0.01 (EUR 0.06). Heikki Vienola, CEO: "I believe that the predicted economic slowdown offers us an opportunity to help our customers while simultaneously increasing our own sales. Our service is designed to support and enhance the business of our customers. For example, Wulff's MiniBar and other versatile office supplies services, as well as the business gift service of KB-tuote, offer customers an efficient and controlled way to acquire office supplies and business gifts. Enhancing these acquisitions means clear cost savings to customers and helps them to focus on their core business. In my opinion, the companies that manage to correctly focus their activities are the ones that will succeed in these economically challenging times.” Positive business development continued at Wulff Oy Ab, which accounts for some 40 per cent of Wulff-Group's net sales. Wulff acquired several new contract customers during the review period. The company has also been successful in developing its customer relationships and profitability. The Wulff organisation continues to be enhanced using tools offered by the Great Place to Work Institute. In line with its contract customer concept, Wulff sells office supplies and computer accessories to large and medium-sized businesses, municipalities, cities and the Finnish government. The investments that KB-tuote, a specialist in business and promotional gifts, has made in its product and customer strategy and co-operation with goods suppliers, have had a positive impact on the company's profitability. The company also acquired new contract customers in the review period. KB-tuote Oy provides major corporations with an outsourced business gift service whereby the customer can order products designed in line with the company brand though an electronic order system, among other things. The profitability of Finnish direct sales developed positively in the third quarter. In the review period, direct sales emphasised new customer acquisition, brand work and the improvement of recognition. The direct sales companies and Wulff Group Plc were highly visible at the Secretary&Assistant trade fair in September. In accordance with the Group's strategy, the Wulff brand will be used in the direct sales companies' communications in the future. Wulff-Group's direct sales business consists of ten direct sales companies in Finland, all of which sell computer accessories, office supplies, corporate promotional products and ergonomic products. Wulff-Group's Scandinavian operations developed favourably in the Group's Norwegian subsidiary. Both sales and financial performance have continued to develop well in Norway, thanks to the continued good results from telephone sales. One of the biggest challenges of the Group's Swedish subsidiary is the recruiting of skilled sales personnel. Entre Marketing, a company selling fair and event marketing services, which has been included in the consolidated financial statements since 9 May 2007, was unprofitable in the review period. The subsidiary has taken measures to reinvigorate its operations and improve its performance. As a result of the cooperation negotiations carried out in June, Entre Marketing cut its headcount by four. In addition to this, Entre decided to sell its production unit to Silver Zombie on 1 July 2008. This solution enables Entre to focus on core business in accordance with its strategy and adds thus to its competitive capabilities. According to the agreement, 12 employees in Entre Marketing's production unit transferred to Silver Zombie. The employees started at Silver Zombie on 3 July 2008 as old employees. FINANCING AND INVESTMENTS Cash flow from business operations amounted to EUR 0.90 million (EUR 0.48 million). The consolidated balance sheet total at the end of the period amounted to EUR 39.9 million (EUR 41.0 million) and the equity ratio was 48.9 % (43.9 %). Equity per share was EUR 3.00 (EUR 2.77). The investments in fixed assets entered in the balance sheet amounted to EUR 0.65 million (EUR 0.90 million), or 1.2 % (1.7 %) of net sales. Investments focused mainly on machinery and equipment. PERSONNEL Wulff-Group Plc had 432 (486) employees at the end of the review period and an average of 450 (480) employees over the period. A total of 96 (104) employees worked in Sweden, Norway and Estonia. TREASURY SHARES The Board of Directors of Wulff-Group Plc decided in its meeting on 22 April 2008 to initiate a share buyback of maximum of 300,000 own shares in accordance with the authorisation given to it at the Annual General Meeting on 4 April 2008. Treasury share acquisition was initiated on 12 May 2008. By 30 September 2008, a total of 3,901 shares have been acquired with the said authorization. The acquired shares represent 0.1% of the share capital and votes of Wulff-Group. The shares have been purchased through public trading at OMX Nordic Exchange Helsinki in a proportion other than that of current shareholder holdings. The shares have been purchased at the market price determined in public trading at the time of purchase. The Group's registered share capital on 30 September 2008 amounted to EUR 2,603,051.20 and the total amount of shares is 6,507,628. Wulff Group held 20,102 of its own shares on 30 September 2008, which represents 0.3% of the Group's shares and votes. After the review period, on 15 October 2008, the Group received 1,425 company shares previously included in the incentive system for subsidiary sales. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES IN THE NEAR FUTURE Wulff-Group's business experiences seasonal change, and a significant share of the company's turnover and profit is generated in the fourth quarter. The main uncertainty factors in the near future are related to the profit development of Entre Marketing and the economic sentiment. The demand for corporate promotional products may begin to change, as the general economic sentiment takes a downward turn. No other significant changes have affected Wulff-Group's risks and uncertainty factors during the review period. EVENTS AFTER THE REVIEW PERIOD: THE ACQUISITION OF IBERO LIIKELAHJAT OY Wulff-Group Plc acquired the entire share capital of Ibero Liikelahjat Oy from Progift Oy by an agreement signed on 1 October 2008. For the financial year ended on 31 December 2007, Ibero Liikelahjat Oy, a company selling and marketing business and advertising gifts, posted net sales of EUR 3.3 million, an operating profit of EUR 0.5 million and a net profit of EUR 0.4 million. The company's balance sheet total on 31 December 2007 was EUR 1.7 million, of which equity stood at EUR 0.5 million. The company's showroom, operating facilities and warehouse are located in Pitäjänmäki, Helsinki. Ibero Liikelahjat Oy employs 12 people, five of which are sales professionals. The basic acquisition price of the acquired shares is EUR 700,000 and 100,000 shares of Wulff-Group. A targeted new issue of shares to the seller party will be realised during 2008. The new shares will have a so-called lock-up condition concerning them. 50,000 pieces of the shares will be released from the transfer restriction in December 31, 2009, and the remaining 50,000 shares in December 31, 2011. The final acquisition price will be based on the financial performance during the years 2008 to 2011. Ibero Liikelahjat will continue its operations as an independent unit in its own business premises. Tanu Rautio will continue as the Managing Director of Ibero Liikelahjat Oy. The acquisition will strengthen the Group's business and advertising gift sales and its position in the corporate promotional products market. The acquisition is expected to have a positive impact on the Wulff Group's earnings per share already in 2008. OUTLOOK FOR THE REST OF 2008 The weaker economic situation has also affected the demand for office supplies. Nevertheless, the company management believes that the Group's turnover will increase in 2008 and that the company is positioned to achieve better year-over-year results from business operations.
