COMMENTS FROM THE PRESIDENT AND CEO

Organic sales growth continued to be strong, supported by favorable market
conditions in the US, positive development in some important markets in Europe,
and an improving macro economy in Spain.

Earnings per share improved
The operating margin improved compared to last year and earnings per share grew
10 percent, adjusted for changes in exchange rates.

Technology is reshaping the security industry
Increasing the sales of security solutions and technology will continue to be
the most important strategic focus of Securitas in years to come. In 2014,
security solutions and technology sales grew with 28 percent compared to 2013.
We estimate that we can continue to grow the sales of security solutions and
technology in at least the same range in 2015. The trend in the second quarter
supports the target and all business segments are driving the increase at
similar pace.

Alf Göransson
President and Chief Executive Officer
