CEO's comments

Growth, healthy earnings and cash flow

There are many reasons to be enthusiastic about Addnode Group's performance for 2014. We are generating new business, we are expanding, our earnings are increasing and our cash flow is improving. This is due to the advancement of the positions of all four of our business areas.

The Design Management business area is expanding and has strengthened its market position as the largest and leading supplier of IT solutions for digital models and drawings in the Nordic region. The PLM

business area has risen to a new level of profitability and expanded the offering to new customer segments. In the Process Management business area, we launched new offerings and secured several systemsdevelopment orders, while retaining healthy profitability. During the year, Content Management significantly improved its results, although we have not yet hit the target.

The stability and predictability of our operations have become more distinct during the year. Recurring revenue from support and maintenance agreements, as well as SaaS solutions have increased and accounted for a full 46 percent of net sales in the fourth quarter.

In a turbulent business world with many changing conditions, we have confirmed that Addnode Group has the ability to capture new business and expand with improved profitability.

With a strong balance sheet and healthy cash flows, we have significant latitude to develop the group, both organically and through acquisitions. The acquisition loan facility of SEK 200 M means we have secured further capital, which will provide us with the potential to continue the development of Addnode Group with full vigor.
