In the same period last year, the figure was €-9.91 million. At €-7.72 million, changes in trade receivables were well above the prior-year figure (€-4.25 million). Working capital (the difference between current assets and current liabilities) amounted to €35.62 million as of the quarterly reporting date and was thus slightly down on year-end 2012 (€37.26 million).

Compared to 31 December 2012 (€48.17 million), noncurrent assets were up by €2.37 million to €50.54 million. This was largely due to additions to tangible assets resulting from the purchase of the new administration building.

As of 31 March 2013, current assets were well below their year-end 2012 level (€84.31 million), falling by €2.79 million to €81.52 million. The decline was mainly due to the sharp fall in liquid funds of €10.67 million to €25.24 million. By contrast, trade receivables increased by €7.64 million to €51.85 million.

Financial Reporting. Compared to the Annual Financial Statements as at 31 December 2012, the Interim Financial Statements include condensed reporting in the Notes to the Financial Statements and comply with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union.

With the exception of the changes stated below, the same accounting and valuation methods were used in these Interim Financial Statements as in the last Consolidated Financial Statements as at 31 December 2012. New or amended standards and interpretations to be applied as of the beginning of the financial year 2013 had the following impact on the Interim Financial Statements: As a result of the initial application of IAS 19 (revised), actuarial gains and losses were recognised in other comprehensive income in accordance with this standard.

Other new and revised standards to be adopted as of 1 January 2013 (IAS 7 / IFRS 7 / IFRS 13) have no material impact on the Interim Financial Statements.

In financial year 2012, the structure of the cash flow statement was amended in accord-ance with IAS 1.41 in order to improve presentation.

The amounts for taxes paid and interest paid and received disclosed in the footnotes of the previous year were integrated into the calculation of the cash flow statement. Moreover, the item »Other changes in equity«, which includes currency translation differences of subsidiaries, was distributed among the changes in assets and liabilities in the reporting period while currency translation differences in cash and cash equivalents were disclosed separately.

In drawing up these Interim Financial Statements, the Executive Board made estimations concerning the application and interpretation of ac-

ments show differences, and that the GFT Group is organised, managed and controlled on the basis of these segments. Internal reporting to the Executive Board is based on the classification of Group activities in these segments.

The products and services with which the reportable segments generate their income can be characterised as follows: all activities in connection with IT solutions (services and projects) are aggregated in the GFT Solutions segment. The emagine segment focuses on the placement of freelance IT specialists.

Internal controlling and reporting within the GFT Group, and thus also segment reporting, is based on IFRS accounting principles as applied in the Consolidated Financial Statements. The GFT Group measures the success of its segments by means of segment EBT (earnings before tax).

As a general rule, the assets of the segments include all assets, except for those from income tax and assets attributed to the holding activity.

The segment liabilities include all liabilities, except for those from income tax, financing, and liabilities in connection with the holding activity.

For detailed information about the business segments, please refer to the Appendix attached to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. It also includes disclosures concerning revenue from external clients for each group of comparable products and services.
