Anders Lidbeck, President and CEO comments:

“2015 was a really good year for Enea. Our earnings per share increased by 20
percent year on year. Operating profit was up by 17 percent on the previous
year, while revenue rose by 12 percent.

In the fourth quarter of 2015, like the first, second and third quarters, we
also set operating profit records for these periods, not only in year-on-year
terms, but for the whole of Enea’s history. The fourth quarter was the 11th
consecutive quarter of year-on-year profit gains, and the 17th consecutive
quarter of margin expansion. The profit gains were due to a combination of
revenue growth and our ongoing work on identifying and implementing productivity
improvements right across our business. I am pleased that, as well as our record
profits, we also significantly advanced Enea’s market positioning in new
segments in the year.

Revenue also made satisfactory progress in the period, with 6 percent growth on
the corresponding quarter of the previous year. Product-related service sales
are continuing to grow, even if growth was somewhat more restrained in the
fourth quarter. The high demand for expert services associated with our products
is a consequence of a growing number of solutions being based either on open
source, or a combination of open source and proprietary software. In overall
terms, our service business is continuing to outgrow our software business,
which is the main reason for our fourth-quarter gross margin (70.2 percent)
being somewhat lower than the corresponding quarter of the previous year (71.5
percent). We also enjoy a good net margin in our service business. Expertise,
not confined to our own products, but also the capacity to deliver integrated
projects effectively and with high quality, is, and will remain, a key component
in a world where open source is getting more important. Accordingly, this
business sector is becoming increasingly strategic to Enea.

Our software business grew by 4 percent in the fourth quarter, in year-on-year
terms. Revenues from key accounts increased somewhat on the corresponding period
of the previous year. These revenues remain heavily dependent on royalty
revenues, which were stable in year-on-year terms. In our software business, our
realignment to generating a growing share of revenues outside our major accounts
continues. The fourth quarter was also a period of several interesting deals and
new projects from technology and strategy perspectives. Once agian we got
confirmation that our current offering is asserting itself well in the market,
while we were also able to demonstrate the potential of new business models and
new use cases. We secured one of our biggest ever open source deals in the
quarter, enhancing our existing OSE product with new functionality. We secured
over 30 new business accounts in 2015, and in combination with Linux, our
operating system OSE has been designed into two new global LTE projects. I am
really delighted about this, and it is so important to Enea.

Our second major realignment is about creating a product portfolio with more
offerings based on open source. In this context, our focus is and will remain to
develop the offering we already make, and to create something new. Our efforts
to secure ourselves more deeply in relevant multinational open source
collaborations are continuing at an undiminished pace. In the fourth quarter, we
announced a publicly open lab environment within the OPNFV Project (a project
initiated by the Linux Foundation with the objective to develop a platform for
Network Function Virtulization solutions, based on open source) enabling the
development and test of NFV (Network Function Virtulization) solutions based on
ARM hardware. The company ARM continues to be an important partner for us in
this as well as several other technology areas. This lab environment will be
used in our development work in-house, in collaboration with partners, but also
as a platform for all-new offerings—notably service business in the NFV segment.
We also announced a new version of our middleware product “Element,” whose focus
on configuration of network nodes opens up several promising use cases in the
growing virtualized (NFV) and software-defined (SDN) network architectures,
where the software is no longer linked to specific hardware. During the quarter
we also announced a new project, where we are creating an all new, free and open
project in the IP communication segment jointly with key players like Nokia and
ARM.

The fundamental technology and market trends, as discussed in the above
subparagraph, are clear, and we are concentrating just as sharply on being part
of these trends by focusing on new technology segments and new business models,
while simultaneously continuing to develop our existing business. This gradual
but critical realignment progressed well in 2015, and Enea significantly
advanced its positioning in new segments.

We are continuing our endeavour to build an even bigger and stronger company
that delivers growing value for customers, employees and shareholders. With
strong finances, good cash flows and consolidated market positioning, we are
prepared for these changes, and view the future with confidence.

For the full year 2015, we achieved our objective of revenue growth and improved
earnings per share compared to 2014. Our objective for the full year 2016 is to
achieve revenue growth, and we expect earnings per share to improve compared to
2015.”
