COMMENTS FROM THE PRESIDENT AND CEO

Strong organic sales growth

Organic sales growth was exceptionally strong also in the second quarter, driven
by good portfolio development and extra sales continuing at record high levels.
Most of these extra needs of security are short term in its nature, and are
expected to reduce during the second half of 2016. Securitas is well positioned
to manage the higher levels of security needs and also the increasing concerns
for operational disruptions at our customers’ sites by optimally combining on
-site, mobile and remote guarding with electronic security, fire and safety, and
corporate risk management. As a result we are presently growing faster than the
security markets in the US and Europe as well as in many of the Ibero-American
countries.

Earnings per share and operating margin improved

Earnings per share improved by 19 percent in the second quarter and by 16
percent in the first half of 2016, adjusted for changes in exchange rates. The
operating result improved by 18 percent compared to the first half of last year,
adjusted for changes in exchange rates, and the operating margin improved to 5.1
percent (4.7) in the quarter and to 4.9 percent (4.7) for the first six months.

Continued strong sales growth of security solutions and electronic security

Sales of security solutions and electronic security were strong in the first six
months and in line with our expectations. We believe that we can continue to
increase our sales of security solutions and electronic security at a high pace
in the coming years and make this a substantial part of the Group’s total sales.
The completed acquisition of Diebold’s North American Electronic Security
business on February 1, 2016 also makes an important contribution in
accelerating our transformation and we have also recently been able to agree on
two medium sized electronic security acquisitions in Europe.
