Our efforts to create an organisation able to grow with profitability are
beginning to bear fruit. We place a lot of time and effort in becoming more
efficient in sales and marketing. For Poolia to have the goal of becoming best
in the industry in the supply of skilled temps and employees goes without
saying. It means we must be able to make the best possible match between
temp/candidate and the relevant assignment. We are constantly improving our
efforts to achieve this task with lower resource consumption, while maintaining
consistent and high quality.

The list of new, returning and renewing clients continues to grow. Tendering
processes won during the fourth quarter included SOBI, the Swedish Transport
Administration, Volvo AB, Bergendahls, Parliament Administration, the Swedish
Pensions Agency and Svenska Spel.

Integration of the acquired company Joblink Norden AB has now been completed
according to plan. We now have a strong market position in Skåne, which is
important for achieving our long-term goals for operations in Sweden.

The leadership development programme (“No Roof Leadership”) is in progress and
is highly rated by the participants. This programme is critical to the
achievement of our 2020 targets. Poolia's long-term goals and strategies stand
firm. The positive energy is stronger than ever; we take up our challenges with
pleasure and have great confidence as we face the future.
