yoy and large contracts was down by 52% yoy.

operations adjusted for other operating income/expenses, depreciation and

acquisition, defined benefits scheme expense and provisions (including
provision for obsolete inventory, provision for impairment of accounts
receivable, unused vacation allowance, warranty provision, provision for
legal claims, tax provision and other provisions). This measurement basis,
