Summary from Hexagon’s Capital Markets Day


Hexagon, a leading global provider of information technologies that drive
productivity and quality across geospatial and industrial enterprise solutions,
is holding a Capital Markets Day in London today, 4 December 2015. Hexagon’s
President and CEO, Ola Rollén, will comment on the company’s operational
development and announce that the company’s financial plan remains intact. In
addition, Rollén will give an update on the market conditions for the current
quarter, for which reported growth is expected to be 6-9 per cent.

Financial plan

Hexagon’s current financial plan was launched in 2011 and most recently updated
in connection with the company’s 2014 Capital Markets Day to extend through
2016. The sales target of 3.5bn EUR and EBIT margin target of 25 per cent remain
unchanged. A combination of organic growth focused on new solutions and
acquisitions focused on software will be used to reach these targets.

“The question is not if, but when we will reach these targets,” comments Ola
Rollén, President and CEO of Hexagon. “While achievement in 2016 remains a
possibility, the momentum that we’ve built up since 2011 that will lift the
company higher than the financial targets for 2016, is much more significant. To
date, our long-term growth strategy, centered around innovative and high-tech
solutions, has enabled us to achieve higher organic growth than the underlying
market. Our financial position is strong, which is also enabling us to continue
expanding and strengthening our software portfolio through innovations and
acquisitions.”

In pace with the company’s business model shift to a higher share of software
and solutions, Hexagon’s cost structure has improved considerably. The greater
proportion of revenues coming from subscription-based contracts continues to
increase the stability of business.

Fourth quarter update

Reported growth for the fourth quarter is expected to be 6-9 per cent. The
underlying trend of rising operating margins is expected to continue during the
fourth quarter.

Update from Hexagon’s divisions

During the Capital Markets Day, senior executives from Hexagon’s divisions will
give presentations on operational progress and provide insight into product
development.

Geospatial Enterprise Solutions will present how Hexagon’s unique sensor
portfolio is enabling a virtual world and maps of the future, made available to
a much wider audience than just professional users. Hexagon’s role in the
world’s autonomous future, which relies heavily on accuracy and precision, will
also be discussed.

Industrial Enterprise Solutions will describe the manufacturing plant of the
future – the smart connected factory – which will rely heavily on increasing
amounts of automation and information connectivity to achieve quality and
productivity improvements. Cloud solutions that boost efficiency for customers
