slightly year on year but still represented a return to the positive
side of the equation.

Interest income fell to TEUR 309 (PY: TEUR 743) in the first half of
2005 following the cash distribution, down considerably on the
previous year. Consequentially, the net result of the USU Group was
TEUR -77 (PY: TEUR 208). With an average number of shares of
8,628,992 (PY: 8,605,593), earnings per share in the period under
consideration were EUR -0.01 (PY: EUR 0.02).
Even after the special distribution, the USU Group still held liquid
funds and investments totalling TEUR 12,951 (31 December 2004: TEUR
47,859) as at 30 June 2005. The liabilities of the USU Group declined
accordingly to TEUR 5,770 (31 December 2004: TEUR 40,310). At the end
of the first half of 2005, shareholders’ equity totalled TEUR 35,272
(31 December 2004: TEUR 33,145). With a balance sheet total of TEUR
41,042 (31 December 2004: TEUR 73,455) the equity ratio was 85.9% (31
December 2004: 45.1%).

expended to 197 (PY: 188) employees. The Group order book also
