Grenoble -- May 16, 2008 -- The sales turnover of the first fiscal semester, closed on March 31, reaches 4,6 M€, with a decrease of 9 % with respect to the sales turnover generated over the same period of last year.
While the company had to sustain the drop of the dollar over the semester, of -12%, in a market shaken by operations of disinvestments, acquisitions and mergers, it has succeeded in performing 42 % of its sales at export – beyond the European Union, versus 32 % a year ago.
This demonstrates and validates again the adequacy of its offering of products, of integration services and of its commercial action.
The good shape of its order backlog, as well as the promotion of strategic innovations based upon the patents most recently registered by the company, invite to aim at catching-up with the yearly objective of growth over the second semester.

The level of demand, notwithstanding the clouds over the economic landscape, and the Asian focus of commercial efforts, confirm the relevance of the strategic positioning of the company.
