Anders Lidbeck, President and CEO, comments:
“The first quarter of 2014 went slightly better than expected. Once again we
have set a record for profitability, this time for the first quarter. Never
before has Enea had a better margin, a better operating profit or a greater net
profit per share in the first quarter of a year.

Perhaps the most pleasing aspect of the first quarter is that we returned to
sales growth. The general market trend is a relatively weak market growth and
our growth development over the coming quarters will therefore be largely
dependent on an increasing royalty revenue.

In the software part of our business, we have seen growth year over year. Growth
there stood at 3 percent. We saw both growth and good gross margins in our
software business. The business has developed relatively evenly in geographical
terms, with a slight weakness in the USA.

Our service business also developed well over the first quarter and grew
sequentially quarter on quarter, for the second quarter in a row. We have been
awarded a number of new contracts in this field. Among others, we have been
awarded a Bridged Services contract in Germany, which is our first contract of
this type in Germany. Our ambition in the long term is to be able to win more
contracts there, so giving us another major market for these types of contract,
alongside the USA. Given the contracts we have at present, in our opinion the
sequential growth for our service business should be able to continue over the
second quarter as well.

Our market position has developed well over the past year. We are standing firm
as an independent software supplier in a world in which our competitors are
becoming ever more vertically integrated and linked more tightly with specific
kinds of hardware. We are continuing to invest heavily in our product
development in order to maintain and improve our competitiveness. More than 20
percent of our revenue is being reinvested in R&D, where more than 40 percent of
our staff work. We are continuing to focus on built-in Linux-based solutions in
general and ARM as a hardware platform in particular. One result of this work is
Enea Linux, a new version of which will be released in Q2 with greatly enhanced
content. Our commitment to the world of open source is increasing at the same
time – one relevant example is the “Carrier Grade Linux” field. All this
constitutes important building blocks for the next generation of solutions for
networking and mobile broadband, where new concepts such as NFV (Network
Functions Virtualization) and SDN (Software-Defined Networking) will have an
important part to play over the coming years. Although revenues in these new
fields are a long way off, it is important for us to position ourselves well
both technically and on market terms. We are continuing our efforts to further
develop the content of our product portfolio and also to form strategic
alliances within these key fields.

The changes made to the sales and marketing organization which came into force
from the start of 2014 have developed well. Now, as the second quarter begins,
we are making a few minor adjustments and increasing net investment in the sales
organization in the USA. We also hope to be able to increase our sales capacity
in both EMEA and Asia by means of new recruitments before the second half of the
year. We made changes to our product management and increased our investment
there ahead of this year. This has also been very significant to us during the
first quarter, partly ahead of our Linux 4.0, but we are expecting to see the
more significant effects of this during the second six months of this year and
afterwards, when our new products start to reach the market.

We are continuing our attempts to improve growth and achieve high profitability.
Our aim is to consolidate a 20 percent operating margin and deliver revenue
growth year on year.

We will be prepared for ongoing subdued demand, but we maintain our forecast for
the year. Our estimate for the whole year 2014 is that profit per share will be
improved compared with the previous year.”
