BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT
The Systems segment's long order book for automation systems was reflected in
high net sales in the second quarter, while demand for software deliveries was
at a satisfactory level. A steady stream of orders continued in the second
quarter, which will increase the segment's net sales towards the year end.
Demand for the documentation and visualization services provided by the Services
segment remained brisk in the second quarter.
The Health Care segment's sales of tonometers in the second quarter were
unsatisfactory while probe sales were strong. As in the previous year, the
second quarter net sales and the segment's profit remained lower than in the
first quarter. The application for an FDA (Food and Drug Administration) license
to sell iCare tonometers in the USA was approved on May 31, 2007. An agreement
with a distributor in the USA was concluded in the middle of July. The
deliveries
of iCare-tonometers to the USA have not yet begun.
