As always exhibit turnover periodic fluctuations based on customers' irregular buying patterns. This is offset to some extent that we have customers in over 100 countries.

Instrument Sales - which form the foundation of our systems - remained robust and grew by 19 percent for the year 2011th Sales of consumer goods increased slightly during the year, but we expect a higher rate of increase as a result of a growing installed base of instruments. Sales of systems on the human market performed well on our key markets, despite a year that was characterized by continued financial turmoil. Particularly gratifying sales in Asia and in the U.S. market, where we continues to show good growth and gain market share despite intense competition. Our new fempartssystem Quintus has also been well received, with strong demand for certain geographic markets. Sales of systems to the veterinary market declined slightly in the U.S. in 2011 but the underlying market remains stable. In Europe we have a slow but steady growth, which includes a new distributor in the French market have contributed to the increase in sales. In November 2011 participated Boule at Medica in Dusseldorf, one of the largest International medical trade fairs. We had meetings with a large number of existing and potential distributors. The trend of increasing interest to leasing scheme continues, which provides benefits for our reliable, closed system in the fierce competition that exists. We have also strengthened our leadership role by Fredrik Alpsten who has taken over as new CFO and Claes Blanche who was appointed as the new CEO of our Swedish subsidiary Boule Medical AB. Frederick Alpsten has many years experience in senior positions in both listed and private companies and Claes Blanche Among another great experience in the medical and sales through distributors in key markets in Europe, Middle East and Asia. This enhanced leadership, we are well equipped to meet the challenges of Boules continued growth. At the turn sold our remaining interest in the associate company Nordic Biolabs AB. Sale resulted in a positive liquidity effect of SEK 5 million of which 4 affects 2011 and a capital gain of SEK 1 million. The sale was completed realignment of the Boule Diagnostics AB, an international diagnostics company focusing on human and veterinary blood analysis.
