Increased focus in Enea's new strategy

In order to increase growth and profitability Enea creates two
business units, Software and Consulting.

Enea® (Nordic Exchange/Small Cap/ENEA), a global software and
services company focused on solutions for communication-driven
products, today announced that it is introducing a focused strategy
with two business units. The Software business unit, which includes
Enea's global software business and related services, will focus on
the company's strong position in the real-time operating system
(RTOS) market in which Enea is a world leading supplier to the
telecom industry. The Consulting business unit, which consists of the
professional services business in Sweden, Romania and the United
States, focus on local expertise combined with off-shoring services.
This enables each business unit to develop and achieve increased
revenue with the objective to reach 20% profitability within Software
and 10% for Consulting.

Enea Software
Real-time operating system OSE is Enea's dominant product and
currently accounts for 46% of sales within Software. OSE has over the
years from 2006 to 2008 showed a total sales growth of 31%.

The global RTOS market is growing and changing. New advanced
hardware-based multicore technology has been introduced to meet the
need for increased performance and decreased cost for embedded
systems. This technology is used by telecom equipment manufacturers
among others to manage parts of the ever increasing IP traffic within
the networks. Multicore places new and increased demands on operating
systems and applications in order to take advantage of the benefits.

According to the market research firm VDC, growth of operating
systems and tools for multicore is expected to amount to more than
40% per year. Enea will increase its competitiveness by concentrating
their investments in development, marketing and sales within this
unit.

Enea has previously launched several product innovations in multicore
during 2009. Enea has also strengthened its presence in Asia
gradually in 2009 through an expansion of RTOS-specialists in the
Shanghai and Beijing offices to support customers' local R&D.

Recently, global suppliers of semiconductors have shown an increased
interest in the RTOS market. Enea is well positioned to benefit from
this trend by strengthening our cooperation with selected
semiconductor suppliers, thus enabling further growth in sales.

"Enea has a leading position in the RTOS market. The market is very
interesting and we see significant opportunities for growth in this
area thanks to the strong emerging need for new operating systems for
multicore." says Anders Lidbeck, Chairman of the Board for Enea, and
continues:" We are now focusing all of Enea in the areas where we are
leaders, to develop and strengthen our market position and in doing
so create even better opportunities for good growth and
profitability. "

Enea Consulting
The Consulting business unit is a significant part of Enea and has
over the period 2006 to 2008 shown a growth of 29%. The unit
specializes in supporting developers of embedded systems and other
software in which Enea's consultancy has extensive experience and
expertise.

The new strategy for Consulting involves increasing market focus for
the various local businesses within their established industrial and
specialty areas. Furthermore an increased degree of autonomy is
introduced in order to increase competitiveness and flexibility in
the local markets.

Consulting, with offices in Sweden, Romania and the United States has
specific industry expertise in mobile telephony, telecom
infrastructure, aerospace and automotive. Established specialties are
real-time systems, test, Linux, Android, Autosar and certification
standards such as DO-178B.

"The local consultant business differs substantially from our global
software. Each business unit is now optimized to better exploit its
own unique business opportunities, while we can adjust cost levels,
"said Per Åkerberg, President and CEO of Enea.
