Seltsam,keiner intressiert an dem Wert?????
Kennt den keiner Die Firma?????

[aenjen]

lieber gorko,
f-secure steht aktuell bei 1,12 in Finnland. Keine Ahnung wie man das umrechnet. Aber du kannst jederzeit den finnischen Kurs einsehen, wenn Du auf das Info Links klickst und dann scrollst bis als Empfehlung der Deutschen Bank (vom Fan. oder Febr.) F-Secure kommt. Dort klick das erste Icon an und der aktuelle finnische Kurs erscheint. Ich bin bei F-Secure bei 0,89 mit 850 Stck eingestiegen und denke bei 2,5 auszusteigen. Ich bin sicher, diesen Wert im Juni zu haben.
Tschüss

[germangambler]

Wird der Markt um reine Virensoftware nicht ein bischen zu eng??

Weiß jemand wie weit F-Secure bereits auf den Markt der "managed security services" vorgedrungen ist?

[Drugster]

Der Boden scheint jetzt erreicht zu sein.
Denke, in den nächsten Wochen geht es seitwärts,
wenn dann UMTS ins laufen kommt, wird`s wieder steigende
Kurse geben

bin per Zufall, durch ein Interwiew mit Articonchef Bauer auf F-secure aufmerksam geworden. Die Aktie scheint mir interessant: sie hat einen tiefen Fall wie fast alle Internetaktien hinter sich,sie steht knapp unter Emissionskurs von 1,52€, die Firma hat die Kosten durch Umstrukturierung ( auch Personalreduktion) verringert (sie schreibt noch rote Zahlen), sie konzentriert sich auf Antivirusprogramme sowohl für Handys als auch für PCs, ein Markt der attraktiv ist und erst recht nach dem tragischen 11. September boomen wird.Die Umsätze in HEX ( Helsinki) waren heute recht beachtlich, über 800000 Stück wechselten den Besitzer.Am 30. Oktober kommen die Zahlen. Hier in Deutschland wird die Aktie kaum beachtet. Lediglich in Frankfurt und Berlin wurden ein Paar gehandelt.Würde sie am liebsten in Helsinki kaufen, weiß aber nicht wie der praktische weg ist. Bin Consors-Kunde.
Vore tacksam für tipps.

F-SECURE CORPORATION STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE
Translation from Finnish
October 30, 2001, at 10am


CORRECTION TO F-SECURE GROUP’S INTERIM REPORT

Some Key Figures in the Interim Report were displayed with
"minus" signs missing. The correct version is below.

Handheld security leadership, improved earnings, steady
revenues despite the difficult conditions

Helsinki, Finland, October 30th, 2001 - For the 3rd quarter
of 2001, F-Secure reported revenues of 9.9 million euros.
This represents a decrease of 9% from 10.9 million in the
third quarter of 2000, and a decrease of 7% over the
previous quarter. For the first nine months of 2001 revenues
were 30.6 million, representing an annual increase of 7%.

Operating loss for Q3 was EUR -2.5 million (-4.0m in the
previous quarter, -2.4m in 3Q2000 without stock option
related credits). For the first nine months of 2001 the
operating loss was -11.4 million (-9.7). Stock option
related social security expenses have had no effect so far
to this year’s results (0.2).

Q3 Highlights

The Group continued to ramp up business in the handheld and
wireless security space, working together with leading
vendors Nokia and Compaq. Traditional solution sales
continued to exhibit moderate strength despite the difficult
conditions.

The encryption business continued to face the challenge of
long lead times and cautious IT spending, though some
sizable pent-up deals that were finally secured in Q3
slightly increased the proportion of encryption sales
compared to the previous quarter. The more established anti-
virus business remained more stable, while being moderately
affected by the economic slowdown in Western Europe and, as
in previous years, by the holiday period affecting the
European market.

The Group’s path to profitability programme and expense
management initiatives advanced successfully during the
quarter. The Group was able to reach the full effect of its

cost savings programme earlier and at a slightly larger
scale than originally planned. While total fixed expenses
decreased, investments in handheld technology development
increased and new, targeted demand creation marketing
campaigns were launched. The total fixed expenses were 11.2m
in Q3(compared to 13.2m in Q1 and Q2).

The Group proved the leadership of its anti-virus research
with the "Nimda" virus outbreak in September. Nimda has been
estimated to infect more than 2 million computers worldwide
and it is categorized among the five largest virus cases in
history. F-Secure`s research team was the first in the world
to send out a warning on the virus and to release detection
and stopping capability against it, bringing enormous value
to the Group’s customers.

The Group`s global customer satisfaction in technical
support declined to an average of 3.68 down from 3.86 in Q2.
The decline is the result of a slow service turnaround
speeds after a tenfold increase in demand for technical
services during the Nimda virus outbreak.

F-Secure Online Solutions’ (F-SOS) business advanced
according to plans, though the uncertainty in the ISP sector
continued to prolong lead times. Q3 operating result for the
subsidiary was -0.3m (-0.5m in Q2 and -0.6m in Q1). These
figures have been included in the Group profit and loss
statement. F-SOS has focused its activities on the European
market and anti-virus solutions.

In addition to the recognized revenues, the Group had 10.9
million euros of deferred revenues on its balance sheet
(10.5 at the end of Q2). The deferred revenues are a result
of having received revenue for existing support contracts,
but where the actual support will take place in the months
ahead.

The geographical breakdown of revenues for the nine months
of 2001 (compared to the same period in 2000) was as
follows: North America 38% (44%), Scandinavia 32% (27%),
Rest of Europe 22% (20%), and Rest of the World 8% (9%).
Anti-virus products represented 50% (47%) of the revenues,
encryption 44% (46%), and other products 6% (7%).

New Products

The Group announced new products, F-Secure FileCrypto and
F-Secure Anti-Virus, for the newly released Pocket PC 2002
handheld operating system. The development of the Anti-Virus
and FileCrypto solutions for the Nokia 9200 Communicator
series continued on schedule.

The Group successfully launched new major releases of a
large number of its products, including F-Secure Anti-Virus
versions for desktop, file server and Microsoft Exchange
server. The new versions have received positive customer
feedback for their features and quality.

New Customers and Partners

The Group secured significant deals with, for example, major
industrial customers in Sweden and with the Federal
Government in the US. EDS and F-Secure announced a global
partnering contract.

The Group worked on a license and distribution agreement
with Compaq Computer Corporation to provide data protection
for the new Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC family. The product
F-Secure FileCrypto for Pocket PC Personal Edition will be
provided as part of the standard package on all Compaq H3800
Series handheld computers. F-Secure FileCrypto for Pocket PC
Enterprise Edition will also be made available through
F-Secure and selected Compaq sales units.

Personnel and Organization

As a result of the cost savings programme, the Group’s
personnel decreased to 326 during Q3 (from 367 at the end of
Q2) of which the personnel of F-Secure Online Solutions
accounted for 15 (22 at the end of Q2) employees. 255
employees were based in the Finnish offices, 45 in North
America and 26 in other countries.

Financing

The Group’s financial position remained strong during the
quarter. The Group’s equity ratio on September 30, 2001, was
76 % (compared to 77 % at the end of Q2 and 82% at the end
of 3Q2000). Financial income for the quarter was 0.4m euros.
The liquid assets of the Group on September 30, 2001 were
27.3m euros (29.7m on June 30, 2001).

Investments

For the first nine months of 2001 the Group’s investments
were 1.8m euros (2.5). The investments consisted mainly of
IT hardware and software and furniture to the new
headquarters.

Shares, shareholders` equity, and option programs

During Q3, a total of 151,041 new F-Secure Corporation
shares were entered into the Trade Register. They were
subscribed with the warrants attached to the F-Secure Option
Programs. As a result of the subscription, the Shareholders’
Equity increased by EUR 17,176. In addition, in October a
total of 170,300 new shares were entered into the Trade
Register and as a result the Shareholders’s Equity was
increased by EUR 19,366.

The number of shares is 141,717,776 on October 30th, 2001.
The corresponding number of shares fully diluted would be
163,507,265, including all stock options programs.

In April, The Annual General Meeting accepted the Board
proposal to authorize the Board for a period of one year
from the general meeting to decide on an increase of share
capital by one or more new issue of shares or by issuing one
or more convertible bonds, option loans or option rights.
The share capital of the company may, as a result of such
share issues, option loans, option rights or convertible
bonds, be increased at the most by 280,000 euros. New shares
may be issued up to maximum of 28,000,000. To the extent the
authorization is used to create incentive systems for the
personnel of the group, the share capital may increase by a
maximum of 70,000 EUR, in which case a maximum amount of
7,000,000 shares may be issued. The authorization remains
fully unused.

Key Events in Early Q4

A major licensing and distribution deal with Compaq related
to handheld security products was announced in early Q4.

The Group was one of Microsoft’s launch partners for the
Pocket PC 2002 operating system.

The Group signed a global distribution agreement with
Deutsche Telekom to integrate the group’s security software
solutions into T-Systems’ newly launched öSecureIPö concept.

The Group signed an agreement with L-Soft to integrate
F-Secure`s Anti-Virus technology into L-Soft`s LISTSERV(R)
product line protecting 60 million subscriptions. L-Soft is
a creator of the industry`s most widely used e-mail list
management software. The deal provides good marketing value
for F-Secure through product visibility to the L-Soft
LISTSERV users.

Future Outlook

The Group believes strongly in its strategy and maintains a
longer term positive outlook in the growing security market,
especially in the handheld space.

The licensing and distribution deal with Compaq, combined
with the earlier announced relationship with Nokia, puts the
Group in a strong position as a major player in the emerging
handheld security solutions market. Leadership in this
market has been the Group’s key objective during the recent
years and that goal is now closer than ever before. However,
significant uncertainty still exists regarding the timing,
structure and growth of the handheld security solutions
market.

The Group will keep emphasizing excellence in product
quality and competitiveness, but is continuously increasing
its focus in developing world-class sales and marketing
functions. This effort will continue to pay off through more
aggressive marketing campaigns, precisely understanding and
meeting key customers’ needs and, in general, being much
closer to its customers and partners.

The current revenue estimate for Q4 revenue is EUR 10.5
million, with an error margin of 10% in both directions.
Improving profitability continues to be of paramount
importance and fixed costs are estimated to be below EUR
11.5 million in Q4.

Despite the market uncertainties the Group believes that,
during the first half of 2002, it is able to grow its
revenues at a moderate annual rate and to further improve
its operating result.

F-Secure Group`s financial results January 1-June 30,2003

Moderate growth in anti-virus, continuing steady growth in service subscriptions through ISPs
Helsinki, Finland - August 6, 2003


For the second quarter of 2003, F-Secure reported revenues of 9.1 million euros. This represents the same level as for the previous quarter and for the second quarter of 2002. The operating result was EUR 0.4 million negative for the second quarter (1.4 m negative in 2Q02).

The anti-virus revenues continued to increase at a steady rate, by 6% in the second quarter. The Security as a Service business (service subscriptions through ISPs) grew steadily and the second quarter of 2003 was the 9th consecutive quarter with approximately 20% growth. Related revenues grew by 131% in the first six months. The encryption business declined by 14% in the second quarter.

New Security as a Service partners during the second quarter were Glocalnet and Eesti Telefon (Estonia). Glocalnet is the 3rd largest ISP in Sweden. This further increases F-Secure’s market share in Sweden as the Group is already offering security services through Telia. The Group launched the Security as a Service concept in the North American market in May. Other new customer wins were Saudi Aramco, the world’s largest oil company, Microsoft MSN, Alma Media, and the Finnish Parliament.

The Group launched a new retail channel to consumers in cooperation with a pan-European software re-publisher WSKA in Germany, France and the UK. The cooperation provides access to key retail chains such as Media Markt, Carrefour and Dixon’s. Still the Group’s main focus remains the small and medium businesses (SMB) sector. Similar partnerships will be developed in other territories.

The Company’s virus scanning and protection system F-Secure Anti-Virus was given the VB100 award for the third time in a row by Virus Bulletin magazine. The independent test results of the Virus Bulletin magazine demonstrate once again that F-Secure is the technology leader in virus protection.The French Décision Micro & Réseaux gave the product highest points for performance. In addition, The Virus Test Center of the University of Hamburg ranked F-Secure’s detection rates to be excellent in all categories together with only one other vendor.

The F-Secure Internet Gatekeeper anti-virus gateway product for web and email traffic was introduced in Q2.

Key events after the end of the reporting period

During Q3 F-Secure Group will launch its most important product for the year. F-Secure Anti-Virus Client Security product contains anti-virus, email scanning, firewall, intrusion detection and application control in one single package. This product provides complete protection and prevents security threats such as the one caused by the July 2003 RPC vulnerability in Microsoft Windows. Experts agree that this hole is among the most serious ever seen and it affects tens of millions of computers around the world.

The first shipments of the F-Secure Mobile Filter, which is content security solution for wireless download systems, were made in Q3.

“In 2003 our key goal is to grow the anti-virus business faster than the industry in the European Small and Medium Businesses and consumer market. Our excellent Security as a Service concept, new products introduced and increasing the number of reselling partners will support our efforts in this challenging business environment”, says Risto Siilasmaa, President and CEO of F-Secure Corporation.

Financial Reporting

A press and analyst conference will be arranged today, August 6th, at 11 am Finnish time at the Group’s Headquarters, Tammasaarenkatu 7, Helsinki. A conference call for international investors and analysts will be arranged at 15.30 Finnish time (14.00 CET, 1.00 pm UK time). Instructions at: http://www.europe.fsecure.com/investor-relations/

The quarterly report for the third quarter of 2003 will be published on October 30th. A Stock Exchange bulletin will be sent at 9 am Finnish time to the Helsinki Exchanges, a press and analyst conference will be arranged at 11 am Finnish time in Helsinki, and an international conference call will be arranged in the afternoon.
