President and CEO comments

Elekta's focus on its customers and their patients, combined with strategic investments in emerging markets, are yielding favorable results. Demand for Elekta's solutions continued to rise and order bookings in the first quarter increased 13* percent. Order bookings in Asia rose 11* percent. Following the close of the quarter, we signed our largest order to date in China valued at USD 35 M. The order further strengthens our position as the leading supplier in China, where Elekta is currently represented in seven of the ten leading clinics. The trend was favorable in North and South America. All 50 of the top-ranked cancer clinics in the US have solutions from Elekta**. In Europe, the scenario remained mixed with favorable development in the northern regions while the trend in southern Europe is weaker due to the ongoing financial crisis. At present, it is difficult to predict the full effects of this or when there will be an improvement in the situation.

The success of Elekta's new Agility beam-shaping solution continues. During the quarter, we received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and clearance from the Pharmaceutical and Medical Devices Agency, PMDA in Japan. These approvals mean that patients in most of our major markets can now receive treatment using the new solution. At present, Agility is being used to treat patients at clinics in some 10 countries throughout the world.

With regard to deliveries, the first quarter, which largely comprises the summer period, is seasonally the weakest for Elekta. Net sales rose 1* percent. The trend in Asia was strong while deliveries in North and South America and Europe were weaker. Nucletron noted comparatively low volumes during the quarter, due to seasonality and the fact that the products largely form part of comprehensive solutions from Elekta, thus entailing longer delivery cycles. Order bookings for our brachytherapy products match our expectations, and the trend for Nucletron is expected to be strengthened going forward.

Operating profit in the first quarter was lower than in the corresponding quarter last year, which was primarily an effect of a limited volume increase. However, we anticipate normal seasonal variations during the fiscal year including a significant increase in operating profit in forthcoming quarters.

Elekta foresees significant potential for further growth, both through expansion in emerging markets and established markets. Looking to the year ahead, we believe that market demand will generally remain favorable.

With planned deliveries from our order backlog and continued demand in our markets, we anticipate that net sales for full-year 2012/13 will increase by more than 15 percent in local currency, including Nucletron.

Due to the strengthening of the Swedish krona, the outlook for the company's growth in operating profit in SEK has been changed from over 17 percent to over 15 percent for the fiscal year 2012/13. Currency is estimated to have a neutral impact including hedging effects on operating profit for fiscal year 2012/13.

Elekta's efforts to develop new technology are intensifying and we remain strongly comitted to product development. Our project aimed at combining treatment with a linear accelerator with advanced magnetic resonance (MR) is progressing. We look forward to even more patients gaining access to advanced cancer care for curative purposes and a better quality of life.

Order bookings and order backlog

Order bookings increased 32 percent to SEK 2,252 M (1,700). Order bookings increased 13 percent excluding Nucletron and based on unchanged exchange rates.

Order backlog was SEK 11,019 M, compared to SEK 10,546 M on April 30, 2012. Order backlog is converted at closing exchange rates. The translation of the backlog at exchange rates on July 31, 2012 compared to exchange rates on April 30, 2012 resulted in a negative translation difference of SEK 119 M.

Market development

North and South America

Order bookings continued to grow and increased by 52 percent in the quarter. Excluding Nucletron and based on unchanged exchange rates, order bookings increased by 28 percent.

In North America the incidence of cancer is growing mainly as a result of an aging and growing population. In addition, there is a need for investments to gradually replace the large installed base of linear accelerators. Elekta's growth in Canada was strong during the quarter. In Canada, there are several ongoing efforts to expand the capacity within radiation therapy. In the US, it is too early to assess whether the proposed changes in reimbursement levels for radiation therapy will impact market demand.

Like other emerging markets, the South American market is driven by a substantial shortage of treatment capacity and an increased focus on improving cancer care. A major procurement process for radiation therapy equipment is currently in progress in Brazil. Elekta's order bookings in South America grew strongly during the first quarter. When combined with Elekta's increasing presence in selected countries, this level of progress supports the company's long-term growth prospects on this continent.

The contribution margin for the region was 31 percent (34).

Region Europe, Middle East and Africa

Order bookings increased by 13 percent during the quarter. Excluding Nucletron and based on unchanged exchange rates, order bookings decreased by 3 percent.

The market trend was mixed, with favorable growth in northern regions of Europe. Demand in the southern regions of Europe was weak, impacted by the ongoing financial crisis. Emerging markets in the region are largely characterized by an increased incidence of cancer and capacity shortages for linear accelerators.

The contribution margin for the region was 29 percent (28).

Region Asia Pacific

The trend was healthy and order bookings increased 32 percent in the quarter. Excluding Nucletron and based on unchanged exchange rates, order bookings rose 11 percent.

In general, the region is characterized by a major shortage of treatment capacity, although countries including Australia, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore have highly developed healthcare systems. Elekta is the market leader and, by maintaining a focus on growth, the company is well positioned to support care providers in these countries in their endeavor to advance and enhance cancer care. Order bookings were highly favorable in China.

The demand trend in Japan continued to give positive indications during the first quarter. Elekta has a strong presence in neurosurgery and software and is well positioned to increase its market share in oncology. During the quarter, Elekta and Toshiba Medical Systems Corporation opened a radiation therapy training center in Japan. The facility provides customers a fully functional training environment. In Japan, only 25-30 percent of cancer patients receive radiation therapy, compared with more than 50 percent in Europe.

The contribution margin for the region was 25 percent (19).

Net sales

Net sales increased 19 percent to SEK 1,695 M (1,428). Excluding Nucletron and based on unchanged exchange rates, net sales grew by 1 percent.

Transaction costs related to the acquisition of Radon was less then SEK 1 M. Gross margin amounted to 44 percent (43). Operating margin amounted to 4 percent (6). Mainly due to a limited volume increase operating result during the first quarter was lower compared to the same quarter last year. Selling and administrative expenses equaled to 30 (28) percentage of net sales.

Research and development expenditures, before capitalization of development costs, increased to SEK 217 M (164) equal to 13 percent (11) of net sales.

Costs for Elekta's ongoing incentive programs amounted to SEK 4 M (7).

The change in unrealized exchange rate effects from cash flow hedges amounted to SEK 12 M (-68) and is reported in other comprehensive income. Closing balance of unrealized exchange rate effects from cash flow hedges in shareholders' equity was SEK 47 M (34 on April 30, 2012) exclusive of tax.

Net financial items amounted to SEK -42 M (-27).

Income before tax amounted to SEK 21 M (65). Tax expense amounted to SEK 6 M (19) or 27 percent (29). Net income amounted to SEK 15 M (46).

Capitalization of development costs and amortization of capitalized development costs amounted to net SEK 27 M (34), of which 18 M (25) relates to the R&D function. Capitalization within the R&D function amounted to SEK 49 M (42) and amortization to SEK 31 M (17).

Liquidity and financial position

Cash flow from operating activities was SEK -151 M (159). Cash flow after investments amounted to SEK -254 M (108), including business combinations and investment in associates of net SEK -79 M (-32). Cash flow in the first quarter was affected by seasonal inventory build-up and tax payments of SEK 140 M. Cash conversion for the fiscal year 2012/13 is forecasted to be >70%.

Cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 1,642 M (1,895 on April 30, 2012) and interestbearing liabilities amounted to SEK 4,545 M (4,530 on April 30, 2012). Thus, net debt amounted to SEK 2,903 M (2,635). Net debt/equity ratio was 0.60 (0.53 on April 30, 2012).

Shares

During the period 451,854 new B-shares were subscribed through exercise of warrants distributed within the framework of the established employee option programs. Total number of registered shares on July 31, 2012 was 95,701,670 divided between 3,562,500 Ashares and 92,139,170 B-shares.

Employees

The average number of employees was 3,304 (2,752). The increase is mainly related to the Nucletron acquisition. The average number of employees in the Parent Company was 23 (20).

The number of employees on July 31, 2012 totaled 3,374 whereof Radon had 24 employees. On April 30, 2012, the number of employees in Elekta totaled 3,366.

Risks and uncertainties

A weak economic development and high levels of public debt might, for some markets, mean less availability of financing for private customers and reduced future health care spending by the governments.

Elekta's ability to deliver treatment equipment is to a large extent dependent on customers' readiness to receive the delivery and to pay within the agreed timeframe. This results in a risk of delayed deliveries and corresponding delayed revenue recognition.

The Group's credit risks are normally limited since customer operations are, to a large extent, financed either directly or indirectly by public funds.

Elekta's development in southern Europe has been weak due to the ongoing financial crisis. At present, it is difficult to predict the full effects of this or when there will be an improvement in the situation.

In its operations Elekta is subject to a number of financial risks primarily related to exchange rate fluctuations. In the short term the effect of currency movements is reduced through forward contracts. Hedging is conducted on the basis of expected net sales over a period of up to 24 months. The scope of the hedging is determined by the Company's assessment of currency risks.

Product safety issues and the regulatory approval processes in various countries constitute a risk since they could delay the ability of introducing products into the countries concerned.

A description of the generic risks and uncertainties in Elekta's business can be found in the Annual Report 2011/12 on page 74 and in note 2.

Acquisition of Nucletron

On September 15, 2011, Elekta acquired Nucletron who is world leading in brachytherapy, treatment planning and delivery. Elekta has consolidated Nucletron from September 15, 2011. From the date of acquisition Nucletron has contributed with net sales of SEK 1,047 M and operating result of SEK 193 M. In the first quarter 2012/2013 Nucletron has contributed with net sales of SEK 174 M and operating result of SEK 4 M.

Other significant events

On June 19, 2012, Elekta acquired Radon Ltda. group, the leading linear accelerator (linac) service company in Brazil. Most of the service contracts held by the company are with clinics that use equipment delivered by Siemens. The acquisition significantly strengthens Elekta's market position, making it the leading organization for installation, service and aftermarket services. Through the acquisition, Elekta's customer base has increased with 25 percent in Brazil. The acquisition price consists of one fixed amount of SEK 69 M (BRL 21 M) and one variable amount of SEK 27 M (BRL 8 M). Elekta has consolidated Radon Ltda. from June 19, 2012. Goodwill and identifiable intangible assets amount to approximately

SEK 92 M (BRL 28 M) calculated on the maximal acquisition price. Transaction costs related to the acquisition have been expensed when incurred and amount to less than SEK 1 M. Radon Ltda. is expected to add net sales to Elekta by approximately SEK 40 M during the 2012/13 fiscal year. From the date of acquisition Radon Ltda. has contributed with an operating result of BRL 238 K (SEK 824 K). The transaction is forecasted to be accretive to Elekta earnings per share (EPS) during Elekta's fiscal year 2012/13.

Significant events after the reporting period

Elekta wins USD 35 million tender in China

In August, Elekta won a major tender where the Health Department of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) is expanding its capacity to treat cancer. Elekta will deliver a comprehensive range of clinical solutions, including Leksell Gamma Knife®, linear accelerators, brachytherapy equipment and associated software. The total value of the contract amounts to USD 35 million, making it Elekta's largest deal ever in China. The order will be booked when all conditions in the tender have been finalized.

Varian Medical Systems filed a lawsuit in the United States against Elekta

In the lawsuit Varian claims that two former Varian sales representatives, recently hired by Elekta Inc., have inappropriately taken information and shared alleged trade secret information with a few Elekta employees in the late spring 2012. Elekta intends to defend itself against the allegations made by Varian. It is too early to make an assessment of the outcome of this lawsuit.

Outlook for fiscal year 2012/13

For the 2012/13 fiscal year, net sales is expected to grow by more than 15 percent in local currency, including Nucletron.

Due to the strengthening of the Swedish krona, the outlook for the company's growth in operating profit in SEK has been changed from over 17 percent to over 15 percent for the fiscal year 2012/13. Currency is estimated to have a neutral impact including hedging effects on operating profit for fiscal year 2012/13.
