The operating profit includes a total of EUR 0.8 million of non-recurring expenses based on restructuring of the company's production. The comparable operating profit in 2007 includes a total of EUR 3.2 million of capital gain on the sales of property. The Group's operating result over the entire year stood at EUR -3.6 million, including the non-recurring expense reserve of about EUR 0.8 million registered for the final quarter of the year regarding reorganisation of the production structure. During the year, non-recurring costs amounted to EUR 1.8 million. Because of tight competition on the contract manufacturing market, great pressure was directed at sales margins. However, the price level of certain products could be increased through price adjustments agreed upon with the customers.
