Olivier Piou, Chief Executive Officer, commented: “In 2011, halfway through our strategic plan, we clearly outperformed our objectives. Secure Transactions and Security have become double-digit profit margin businesses, with strong growth and scale effects. Mobile Communication is back to revenue and profit expansion, benefitting from our investments in software and services. Consequently, the combined profit from operations of our four main segments1 grew by 28% in 2011. These results provide a strong base for the second part of our plan. We will continue along our strategy of transformation and expansion in the growing market of digital security, and have confidence in reaching our €300 million profit from operations target in 2013.”
1 The four main segments are the Mobile Communication, Machine-to-Machine, Secure Transactions, and Security business segments. They represented almost all the Company revenue in 2011 and in 2010.
