            Head count
          
        
        
          At December 31, 2012, the Group employed 8,909 employees,
        
        
          an increase of the total workforce of 397 people, which
        
        
          represents an improvement of 4.7% compared to 2011.
        
        
          This increase of the total head count is due on the one hand, to
        
        
          a strong increase in the workforce of LISI AEROSPACE (528 more
        
        
          employees than in 2011 representing an increase of 11.3%)
        
        
          and on the other hand, to an adjustment of the head count
        
        
          within LISI AUTOMOTIVE (-99 persons / -3%) and LISI MEDICAL
        
        
          (-33 persons / -6.5%).

            Environmental information (Art. R 225-105)
          
        
        
          For several years, the LISI Group was fully engaged in placing
        
        
          environmental issues at the heart of its corporate culture in
        
        
          order to turn them into intrinsic values.
        
        
          The policy and organization put in place are based on the
        
        
          international standard ISO 14001 (international standard
        
        
          governing the management system of the environment).
        
        
          At the end of 2012, excepting the recently acquired sites in
        
        
          Casablanca and Szediszsow (LISI AEROSPACE Creuzet - Poland),
        
        
          all other sites were certified according to the international
        
        
          standard ISO 14001.
        
        
          Moreover, at the LISI Group level, environmental indicators
        
        
          are monitored semi-annually to assess the impact of the
        
        
          production facilities on the environment.

          Group sites implement several local actions to reduce their
        
        
          consumption of water and energy. These activities have helped
        
        
          to justify the reduction of water consumption per €'000
        
        
          produced by 8% and energy consumption per €'000 produced
        
        
          by 5%.
        
        
          Moreover, the LISI Group monitors the groundwater quality of
        
        
          its oldest, most risky sites in terms of pollution. In this area, the
        
        
          LISI Group observes strict compliance with local regulations.
        
        
          Thus, some industrial areas require regular monitoring of
        
        
          underground water quality.
        
        
          To prevent any chronic pollution and in accordance with
        
        
          applicable regulations, the production sites dump their
        
        
          hazardous products on appropriate retentions and seek, to
        
        
          the extent possible, to replace them with other, less harmful
        
        
          products.
        
        
          Waste production, meanwhile, remained stable at 27.3 kg per
        
        
          €'000 produced. The vast majority of the produced waste is
        
        
          recycled (metal and plastic).
        
        
          
            2012 financial results
          
        
        
          LISI AEROSPACE is the main contributor to the Group's results
        
        
          pending an improvement in the "Structural components"
        
        
          segment. The LISI AUTOMOTIVE division is sharply down
        
        
          due to adjusting production to the deteriorating market and
        
        
          continuing operating difficulties at some sites.
