COMMENTS FROM THE PRESIDENT AND CEO

Organic sales growth continues to show a positive trend and all business segments improved compared to the first half last year. Primarily supported by the US, the organic sales growth reached 3 percent in the second quarter. In France we are showing positive organic sales growth in the second quarter, while organic sales growth in Spain continues to be negative. Latin America continues to show strong organic sales growth.

Net income improved in the first half year

In real terms, the operating result was slightly behind last year, while earnings per share improved with 3 percent. The operating margin in Security Services North America was on the same level as last year and Security Services Europe is 0.1 percent behind. The positive development in Security Solutions and Technology continued in Spain but is not yet sufficient to mitigate the difficult conditions in the guarding business and the labor related charges imposed by the Spanish Government in December last year. Corrective actions are continuously taken to adapt to the reduced guarding sales.

Sales of security solutions and technology gradually increasing

In 2012, sales of security solutions and technology represented approximately 6 percent of Group sales. We have set a target to triple this share of sales by the end of 2015. We continue to invest in resources within security solutions and technology and the share of sales run rate in the second quarter 2014 was 9 percent.

Changing market dynamics creating opportunity for growth

Due to current market dynamics and a gradual increase of the use of technology in security solutions, the security market in mature markets is no longer expected to grow 1 to 2 percent faster than GDP as it has historically, but rather at the same pace as GDP. In the future, this trend could be improved through increased outsourcing of currently insourced guarding activities and by allowing the private security industry to take over services performed by public authorities and governments.

The degree to which technology is being integrated into security solutions varies from country to country in Securitas' markets. However, as the pace accelerates, we are confident that we will be able to gain markets shares by having a stronger and more cost-efficient offering than many traditional guarding companies. We have already seen proof of this in markets where we are well equipped to offer security solutions, where we will be able to grow faster than the security market average.

Alf Göransson President and Chief Executive Officer

The Group's operating margin was 4.6 percent (4.9), a decline explained mainly by the situation in Spain in Security Services Ibero-America. Security Services Europe had a weaker operating margin compared to last year due to one-off timing differences related to social costs and training expenses in France and a few significant aviation contract renewals.

Operating income after amortization

Amortization of acquisition related intangible assets amounted to MSEK –60 (–64).

Acquisition related costs were MSEK –7 (–6). For further information refer to note 4.

The Group's operating margin was 4.6 percent (4.8), negatively impacted mainly by Security Services Ibero-America and the challenging situation in Spain. The operating margin in Spain was burdened by the labor related taxes introduced in December 2013 and volume losses in a difficult market. The total price adjustments in the Group were on par with wage cost increases in the first half year.

Amortization of acquisition related intangible assets amounted to MSEK –121 (–128).

Acquisition related costs were MSEK –11 (–14). For further information refer to note 4.

April–June 2014

Organic sales growth was 1 percent (1), driven by Turkey and Norway. France continued to improve organic sales growth and is now positive.

The operating margin was somewhat weak at 5.4 percent (5.7), due to one-off timing differences related to social costs and training expenses in France and a few significant aviation contract renewals, which have been extended for multiple years after retendering.

April–June 2014

Organic sales growth was 7 percent (5). Organic sales growth in Latin America was 20 percent, primarily driven by price increases in Argentina. Spain showed an organic sales growth of –8 percent (–11).

The operating margin was 4.2 percent (5.3). The development related to Spain with negative impact from the labor related charges introduced in December 2013, volume losses and from a lower operating margin after contract renewals in the Aviation customer segment. The operating margin in Latin America declined due to one off costs in Argentina.

The Swedish krona exchange rate weakened against the Euro. The Argentinian Peso weakened and impacted operating income before amortization negatively with MSEK –17. The real change in the segment was –11 percent in the quarter.

January–June 2014

Organic sales growth was 7 percent (3). Organic sales growth in Latin America was 22 percent, primarily driven by price increases in Argentina. Fierce price competition remains in Spain and even though the macro economic conditions improve this is not yet reflected in the security market. The positive development in Security Solutions and Technology continued but is not yet sufficient to mitigate the difficult conditions in the guarding business. Spain showed an organic sales growth of –9 percent (–12).

The operating margin was 4.3 percent (5.4), a development related to Spain. The decline in operating margin is due to the labor related charges introduced in December 2013, volume losses and price concessions as well as the lower profitability in the Aviation customer segment. The collective bargaining agreement that was signed in February stipulated a wage freeze in 2014. The operating margin improved in Latin America.

The Swedish krona exchange rate weakened against the Euro. The Argentinian Peso weakened and impacted operating income before amortization negatively with MSEK –38. The real change in the segment was –7 percent in the period.

The client retention rate was 91 percent (86). The employee turnover was 27 percent (31).

3) Estimated annual sales.

Other significant events

For critical estimates and judgments, items affecting comparability, provisions and contingent liabilities refer to the Annual Report 2013. If no significant events have occurred relating to the information in the Annual Report, no further comments are made in the Interim Report for the respective case.

Change in Group Management

Henrik Zetterberg has been appointed Senior Vice President General Counsel and Group Risk Manager. He succeeds Åsa Thunman, who as previously announced will leave Securitas in the end of September 2014.

Risks and uncertainties

Risk management is necessary in order for Securitas to be able to fulfill its strategies and achieve its corporate objectives. Securitas' risks fall into three main categories; contract risk, operational assignment risk and financial risks. Securitas approach to enterprise risk management is described in more detail in the Annual Report for 2013.

In the preparation of financial reports the Board of Directors and Group Management are required to make estimates and judgments. These estimates and judgments impact the statement of income and balance sheet as well as disclosures such as contingent liabilities. Actual outcome may differ from these estimates and judgments under different circumstances and conditions.

For the forthcoming six-month period, the financial impact of certain previously recognized items affecting comparability, provisions and contingent liabilities, as described in the Annual Report for 2013 and if applicable above under the heading "Other significant events", may vary from the current financial estimates and provisions made by management. This could affect the Group's profitability and financial position.

Review report

Translation of the Swedish original

Review report over Interim Financial Statements (Interim report) prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and Chapter 9 of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act.

Introduction

We have reviewed this report for the period January 1, 2014 to June 30, 2014 for Securitas AB. The board of directors and the CEO and President are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, Review of Interim Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, ISA, and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Group, and with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Parent Company.
