Challenges faced toward end 2014 - and focus areas for 2015

Fourth quarter

Focus areas

Weak demand, especially Sweden

  • Implementing new cost savings package of 15 MSEK yearly, full

effect from Q3: Merger two subsidiaries, streamlining backoffice, staff reduction

  • ne manufacturing subsidiary
  • Continued investments and efforts in sales - some promising signs

Challenges

Adverse currencies: weak SEK, strong USD

  • Weak SEK: Price increases being implemented since mid-Q4

Strong USD: Increased efforts in purchasing – organization strengthened and tools improved – helped by good outlook for raw material prices

Insufficient leverage

  • n growth

in International

  • Investments made 2014 are “good cost”, …
  • …but we are holding back increases from level of Q3, 2014 until

we see positive margin effects from growth

  • Strong focus on landing and ramping up business already awarded
