Swiss Equity Award received<br />

In September we won the Swiss Equity Award for<br />

our third-place ranking among the more than 150<br />

companies in the SIX Swiss Exchange’s small and<br />

mid-cap segment.<br />

The scoring system was based on stock performance<br />

during the period from September 2010 to<br />

August <strong>2011</strong>, when Starrag Group clearly beat the<br />

SPI Extra benchmark index with a gain of nearly<br />

30 %, as well as on a survey of 300 professional<br />

investors and financial analysts who are specialized<br />

in Swiss small and mid-cap stocks.<br />

––<br />

New service solutions and<br />

opportunities<br />

We continued to develop and refine our modular<br />

service packages and added CBM (Condition-<br />

Based Monitoring) to our offering. The assessments<br />

of current status and trend reports made<br />

possible through CBM enable preventive maintenance<br />

to be carried out in a more selective and<br />

efficient manner. For the first time a large HEC<br />

machine in China was assembled and commissioned<br />

by local service technicians alone – an<br />

important step forward in enhancing the skills and<br />

capabilities of our regional service centers.<br />

A Dörries Scharmann center of competence for<br />

the complete reconditioning and refurbishment<br />

of machine tool systems and equipment, including<br />

a dedicated team of engineering and project<br />

management specialists, was established, creating<br />

new business opportunities in retrofitting for<br />

every brand in the Group.
