Significant events in Q3-2012
Trifork Amsterdam (formerly Orange11)
has been integrated in the
group. A big effort has
been made to integrate the
company in the group. The
process is going well and
Trifork expects a future positive
development in both revenue and
profit-margins.
Trifork Projects Copenhagen was
adopted 100% into the group,
giving an expectation to create
even more future growth.
Trifork announced a new cooperation
with Syd Energi (SE)
establishing a new company
"Next Step Citizen", which will
focus on delivering integrated
solutions in telemedicine services
to the public sector in
Denmark.
Trifork established a cooperation
with the company IT Minds
ApS to be able to recruit
new employees via the company.
At the same time Trifork
acquired a 5% ownership of
the company. It has been
difficult to keep the momentum
in the ongoing business and
hard to keep the profit-
margins. Significant resources and
cost has been spend in
marketing and development of
new proofs of technology.
Trifork expects a positive
development in profit-margins on
the international activities. This
based on optimizations carried out
in Q3 and current forecasts
for the quarter.
GOTO Aarhus (October) and QCon
San Francisco (November) are
two of the major conferences

02/11/12 Trifork A/S - Quarterly announcement Q3-??2012
carried out in Q4-2012. Both
conferences are expected to
outdo the results in 2011
and in this way giving a
significant raise in both
revenue and profit.
Higher profit-margins are expected
due to the fact that most
expenses to marketing activities
has been held in Q3 and a
high utilization of resources
is predicted in profitable
projects in Q4.
Trifork CEO Jørn Larsen: "Q4 is
historically one of the best
quarters in Trifork and we
expect history to repeat itself
in Q4-2012. A major part
of this is due to the
timing and nature of our
conferences. The revenue and profit
from these will have an
impact on in the quarter
where they are carried out
- even though tickets are
already sold and we are
working on them for more
than a half year in
advance".
