CEO’s comments
“The difficult market situation in Europe continued in Q1, but has shown some
signs of improvement, mainly in Southern Europe, Turkey and on distribution
markets. Customers are still being cautious as a result of political
uncertainty, with investment decisions being delayed and put off. There are
significant differences between markets in the Asia Pacific region, with strong
developments in China but weaker developments on other markets. The markets in
the Americas are still characterised by positive development.

We will also remain focused on improving efficiency, especially in our European
organisation and will therefore be carrying out an accelerated program for
achieving more efficient administration, back-office and other support functions
in EMEA. The program will run between 2014-2015 and is expected to mean savings
of around SEK 40 million a year from year-end 2015. This efficiency drive will
lead to one-off costs of around SEK 35 million in 2014, of which SEK 10 million
in Q1.”
