Our growth has been strong in the Asian region while Europe is still weak. Our investment in the very important North American market continues and we have during the period taken a number of important projects in Access/Parking for some major universities. Our work on a new product family within UHF continues according to plan and we already see a great interest among our partners to get a wider offering from TagMaster. With our new product family we will be able to address a market segment where the growth rate is high and the launch will start during the end of the year and sales start will be in the first quarter of 2014. This is just a beginning of our development efforts to offer attractive and innovative products meeting the customer needs today and for the future. During the period we have worked on strengthening our offering to the Transportation (Rail) business by clarifying the components of which our value adding offering is composed. Ourdelivery will for the future consist of consulting, products and service and we will thereby be able to increase the value for our customers by offering them the competence and experience we have consolidated over a number of years. As we have said earlier, we are still in a mode of change which may influence the stability in our quarterly figures during a few more quarters ahead of us. Our profitability is still too low but we can see that all the initiatives we work with in different departments are producing good results which will also show up financially. We are on good way to show a profitable full year for TagMaster which is the first step in building a future growth company.
