Proha Plc   Stock Exchange Bulletin   November 11, 2004 at 9.10 a.m.

THE INTERIM REPORT OF PROHA PLC FOR JANUARY 1 - SEPTEMBER 30, 2004

- The Proha -Group's net sales for the period January 1 - September
  30, 2004 were EUR 48.4 million (EUR 57.4 million for 
  January 1 - September 30, 2003).
- Earnings before interest, taxes and amortization (EBITA) totaled
  EUR -4.6 (EUR -3.5) million
- The result for the period under review includes EUR 1.8 (0.7)
  million of non-recurring restructuring charges.
- In the third quarter net sales were EUR 14.5 (EUR 17.2) million
  and result (EBITA) EUR -1.7 (-1.5) million.
- The third quarter result includes non-recurring charges of EUR 0.6
  million, that were predominantly due to concentrating  the German
  operations in Munich.
- The sales of Artemis 7 portfolio and project management solution
  for investment planning and control continued to increase
  substantially accounting for almost half of all new licenses sold.
- The balance sheet of the Group was strengthened, as Norwegian
  Dovre became Proha's fully-owned subsidiary and Proha's subgroup Artemis
  acquired a total of USD 9 million through equity finance. After the
  transaction, Proha's ownership of Artemis reduced from 80% to 57%.
- The reorganization of operations has continued at Artemis. The
  number of personnel came down by approximately 15%.
- The Norwegian operations were profitable and both the net sales
  and result developed as expected.
- The Group's main focus remains in improving profitability. The
  net sales of 2004 are expected to be below the previous year.
  Following the reorganization efforts the lower cost level will
  allow the fourth quarter earnings (EBITA) turn positive.

BUSINESS PERFORMANCE

In line with its strategy, Proha focuses on the international
portfolio and project management software and service business. The
Proha Group includes the
subgroup Artemis, which accounts for approximately 64% of the net
sales of the
Group, and project management operations in Norway, which mainly
serve the oil
and gas sector and represent approximately 34% of the net sales of
the Group. Proha is a world leader in enterprise-level project and
portfolio management solutions.

After the decline in net sales of the Artemis subgroup during the
second quarter
of 2003, the business volume has remained on the same level. The
sales of the
new generation Artemis 7 software with a higher unit price, have
developed favourably accounting for about half of all new Artemis
license sales during the
period. The total number of new Artemis licenses sold during the
period is
35,000 (47,000).

Patrick Ternier was appointed as new President and CEO of the
Artemis subgroup
as of January 23, 2004.

The reorganization of operations at Artemis will continue. The non-
recurring restructuring charges for nine months were at Artemis EUR
1.7 million, of which EUR 0.6 million were accrued on the third
quarter. The number of personnel at Artemis
has come down by approximately 15% during the period under review.

The development of industry-specific solutions based on Artemis 7
has progressed
as planned and is continuing.

The Norwegian operations developed as anticipated and the krone-
denominated business volume has increased slightly compared to the
first nine months of
2003. The euro-denominated net sales, however, have remained nearly
unchanged
due to fluctuations of exchange rates. During the period, Proha's
subsidiary Safran has focused on the development of a distribution
channel for Safran for Microsoft Project. Dovre International AS,
which was partly owned by
Proha, was acquired into Proha's full ownership in June 2004. On
the third quarter, Dovre entered into a frame agreement with a
leading Norwegian energy company. The agreement secures business
volume for Dovre for several years.

NET SALES

The Proha Group's net sales for January 1 - September 30, 2004 were
EUR 48.4 million (57.4 million). The net sales of the Artemis
subgroup totalled EUR 30.8 (38.3) million and accounted for 64%
(67%) of the Group's net sales.
The net sales of the Norwegian operations totalled EUR 16.4 (17.6)
million and accounted for 34% (31%) of the Group's net sales.

The net sales of the third quarter amounted to EUR 14.5 (17.2)
million. The net sales of the Artemis subgroup were EUR 8.9 (11.3)
million and the net sales of the Norwegian operations were EUR 5.3
(5.6) million.

The decline in the sales volume of Artemis compared to the
corresponding period in 2003 was caused by the termination of some
consultancy agreements since and the recognition of major software
license sales as revenue during the first months of 2003. The U.S.
service sales decreased during the second quarter of 2003 and have
remained on a lower level during 2004.

During the nine months of 2004, 65% of the Group's net sales
originated from outside the euro zone. The appreciation of the euro
reduced the euro-denominated net sales for the period by EUR 1.6
million compared to the corresponding period in 2003.

The emphasis of net sales was still on services, which constituted
EUR 29.6 (35.7) million or 61.2% (62.2%) of net sales. The services
include Dovre's project management consultancy and the consultancy,
training, implementation
and support services of Artemis' software solutions.

License sales amounted to EUR 18.8 (21.7) million, accounting for
38.8% (37.8%)
of net sales. The share of one-time licenses was EUR 7.7 (9.4)
million and that
of recurring licenses EUR 11.1 (12.3) million.

During the period under review, the Group's customers bought 35,000
(47,000)
new Artemis end-user licenses. The total number of Artemis licenses
sold worldwide is over 590,000. The number of licenses sold in the
first nine months
of 2004 is not fully comparable to the corresponding period in 2003
because now
license sales were focused on products with richer feature sets
than before.

PROFITABILITY

Earnings before interest, taxes and amortization (EBITA) for the
nine months totaled EUR -4.6 (-3.5) million. The third quarter
earnings EBITA were
EUR -1.7 (-1.5) million

The Artemis subgroup's earnings (EBITA) were EUR -4.2 (-2.7)
million during January-September 2004 and EUR -1.5 (-1.2) million
during the third quarter of 2004. Cost-cuttings were continued
during the period. However, the realized
sales level did not enable reaching the set profitability targets.

Earnings (EBITA) of the Norwegian operations were EUR 0.6 (1.0)
million during the first nine months of 2004 and EUR 0.1 (0.1)
million during the third
quarter of 2004. The result of the Norwegian operations was as
expected.

The operating result (EBIT) of the Group was EUR -6.1 (-5.0)
million, amounting
to -12.6% (-8.7%) of net sales during January-September 2004.

The operating result for the period under review includes EUR 1.8
(0.7) million of non-recurring restructuring charges. The charges
include employment termination costs of EUR 1.2 (0.7) million and
other operating expenses of
EUR 0.6 (0.0) million. The third quarter restructuring charges were
EUR 0.6 million, which were caused by the closing of the Düsseldorf
offices in Germany. The German operations were concentrated in
Munich.

During the period under review the cost level of the Group business
operations before non-recurring items was approximately 15% lower
compared to the previous year. Compared to the second quarter of
2004 the cost level has declined by 13% due to reorganization
efforts.

During the period under review the result before appropriations,
taxes and extraordinary items was EUR -6.4 (-5.3) million. The net
result for the period was EUR -7.0 (-5.6) million.

Earnings per share amounted to EUR -0.11 (-0.11). Return on
investment (ROI)
was -32.8% (-22.4%) and return on equity (ROE) was -74.3% (-56.5%).

FINANCING AND INVESTMENTS

At the end of the first nine months of 2004, cash and cash
equivalents totaled EUR 7.3 million (10.4 million). The amount of
cash and cash equivalents
increased by EUR 0.2 million from December 31, 2003. In
the period, cash flow from operating activities was EUR -6.7
million, which was
mainly due to the unprofitable operations of Artemis.

In June 2004, the Proha Group's financial position was
strengthened, as its subsidiary Artemis acquired a total of USD 9
million through equity finance. In
a special issue, Artemis offered a group of investors led by the US
Emancipation
Capital LLP a total of 4,090,909 new shares of Artemis' preferred
stock, at USD 2.20 each, amounting to a value of USD 9 million.
With the transaction, Artemis'
working capital was increased and debt repaid. The transaction
strengthened the balance sheet of Artemis.

On September 30, 2004, interest-bearing liabilities amounted to EUR
9.7 (11.4)
million, accounting for 21.8 (23.4%) of the Group's capital and
reserves, provisions, and creditors total. Of the interest-bearing
liabilities,
EUR 4.1 (4.9) million were non-current liabilities and EUR 5.6
(6.5) million current liabilities.

The Group's Quick Ratio was 1.1 (1.1).

Capital expenditure was EUR 0.5 (0.7) million.

Total assets on September 30, 2004 were EUR 44.5 (49.1) million.
Equity to assets ratio was 32.1% (24.5%) and gearing 17.9% (9.2%).

STATEMENT ON THE ADEQUACY OF THE GROUP'S ASSETS

On September 30, 2004 the Group's cash and cash equivalents
amounted to EUR 7.3 (10.4) million. According to Proha's
management, this is sufficient to continue as a going concern.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

The product development costs of strategic products were EUR 5.3
(6.1) million, representing 10.8% (10.7%) of the period's net
sales.

The development of Artemis 7 and solutions based on it has
continued intensively.
Safran has focused on the development of Safran for Microsoft
Project.

Research and development costs are expensed in the year they are
incurred. The product development costs of regionally developed
tactical products are also expensed in full.

The accounting treatment of product development costs is planned to
be changed to correspond to the IFRS principles and the decision
50/1998 of Finland's Ministry of Trade and Industry during the
financial year 2004. This would mean that part of the product
development costs that are now expensed would be capitalized and
amortized over their expected useful lives.

According to plan, the IFRS principles will be applied for the
first time in the financial statements for January 1 - December 31,
2004. However, in the interim reports for 2004 development costs
are expensed.

According to preliminary estimates the product development costs
capitalized for the whole financial year are estimated to be
approximately EUR 4 - 5 million.
The majority of the product development at Proha Group is done at
the Artemis subgroup. A study is being made on whether the Artemis’
product development costs meet the IFRS capitalization criteria.
Thus the amount of capitalized development costs may differ from
the above-presented preliminary estimate.

PERSONNEL

On September 30, 2004, the Proha Group employed 563 (623) people,
of whom
91 (94) worked in Finland and 472 (529) abroad. The average number
of personnel
in the period was 581 (646).

Staff costs amounted to EUR 38.1 (43.1) million, constituting 78.7%
(75.2%) of net sales. The staff costs for the first nine months of
2004 include charges
of EUR 1.2 (0.7) million caused by terminations of employment.

ADOPTION OF IFRS

Proha will publish its first IFRS Financial Statements for the
financial year ending December 31, 2005. As of 2005, the interim
reports will also be prepared in accordance with the IFRS
standards. The company will follow the recommendations of the
Committee of European Securities Regulators (CESR) to inform about
the implementation of the IFRS standards.

The company estimates that the main differences from the Group's
current accounting principles will pertain to the accounting
treatment of product development costs (IAS 38). Part of the
product development costs that were previously expensed will be
capitalized and amortized over their expected useful lives. In
addition, the implementation of the following IFRS standards may
have a significant impact on the financial statements: business
combinations (IFRS 3), impairment of assets (IAS 36), employee
benefits (IAS 19), income taxes (IAS 12) and share-based payment
(IFRS 2).

In Proha's current accounting principles, research and development
costs are expensed in the year they are incurred. The accounting
treatment of product development costs is planned to be changed to
correspond to the IFRS principles during the financial year 2004.
According to plan, the IFRS principles will be applied for the 
first time in the financial statements for
January 1 - December 31, 2004. The majority of the product 
development at Proha Group is done at the Artemis subgroup.
A study is being made on whether the Artemis’ product development
costs meet the IFRS capitalization criteria.

GROUP STRUCTURE

The essential parts of the Proha Group's business operations are
the Artemis subgroup, and the Norwegian operations that are
represented by Safran Software Solutions AS and Dovre International
AS. After the transactions conducted during the second quarter of
2004, Proha now owns approximately 57% of Artemis and 100% of the
operations in Norway.

Artemis acquired a total of USD 9 million through equity finance

The subgroup Artemis' financial position was strengthened by a
transaction implemented in the US, as Proha's subsidiary Artemis
International Solutions Corporation (Artemis) acquired a total of
USD 9 million through equity finance. After the transaction, the
preferred shares issued constitute 29% of all
Artemis' shares. The issue reduced Proha's ownership of Artemis
from 80% to 57%. The transaction also increased the Proha Group's
capital and reserves (share premium account) by EUR 7.4 million, as
the minority share has not been separated from the subgroup Artemis
because of the subgroup's accumulated losses.

In a special issue, a group of investors led by Emancipation
Capital LLP was granted Artemis' preferred shares that do not
entitle the shareholder to a dividend but take priority over common
shares in the creditors' order of priority. Also, the approval of
the majority of shareholders who own
preferred shares is required for certain decisions that affect
Artemis' group structure. Each preferred share is convertible into
one Artemis common share.

In addition to Emancipation Capital, the investors include Potomac
Capital and Trilogy Software Corporation, whose founder and CEO
Joseph Liemandt has become a member of Artemis' Board of Directors.

Members of the AISC Board of Directors are:
Steven Yager (Chairman), Amos Barzilay, Pekka Halonen, Ari
Horowitz, Joseph Liemandt, Michael Murphy, Pekka Mäkelä, Pekka
Pere, Bengt-Åke Älgevik, and
Olof Ödman.

Dovre to Proha's full ownership

The Proha Group's share in the Norwegian Dovre International AS
grew to 100%. Proha used its option and acquired the remaining 60%
of Dovre. Prior to this,
the Proha Group owned 40% of Dovre through its fully-owned
Norwegian subsidiary Safran Software Solutions AS. The transaction
was conducted as a share exchange, in which the shareholders of
Dovre International AS received a total of
7,850,000 new Proha Plc shares, amounting to approximately 12.8% of
Proha's
share capital after the increase in the share capital. Based on
Proha's control
over Dovre as determined in the shareholder agreement, Dovre has
already been consolidated as a subsidiary of the Proha Group.

The total subscription price of the shares given to the
shareholders of Dovre,
was EUR 3.9 million. The share premium created by the transaction
was EUR 1.9 million.

Members of the Dovre International AS Board of Directors are:
Birger Flaa (Chairman), Olof Ödman, Pekka Pere, Steinar Dalva, and
Finn Olav Mjærum.
