“The market is currently pervaded by increasing optimism, associated in
particular with increasing trading volumes, which generate a willingness to
invest in systems in our niche,” says Veronica Augustsson, CEO, in a comment. “A
gradually increasing proportion of license revenues, combined with the influx of
customers over the past year, is beginning to have a positive impact on sales
and operational profitability. This is reflected in our net sales for the third
quarter of the year amounting to SEK 74.0 million, representing an increase of
SEK 9.9 million compared with the corresponding quarter in 2014. At the same
time, operating income for the third quarter amounted to SEK 8.0 million,
compared with SEK 0.0 million for the corresponding period last year.”
