COMMENTS FROM THE PRESIDENT AND CEO

The positive organic sales growth continued in North America, Ibero-America and in Mobile and Monitoring. The organic sales growth in Latin America, an important area in the new business segment Security Services Ibero-America, is developing strongly and amounted to 24 percent during the period. The loss of a few important contracts has hampered the growth in Security Services Europe. Including acquisitions, the real sales growth in the Group was 13 percent in the quarter and 11 percent for the first half year.

The operating margin remains stable in North America, Ibero-America and in Mobile and Monitoring, and the real change of the operating income compared to previous year is developing well. In Security Services Europe, the loss of a few major contracts and difficulties to manage the balance between wage increases and price increases have resulted in a non-satisfactory development and actions are taken to restore the performance. The balance of labor markets recovering and competitive market conditions must be managed with prudence, and being the market leader in many European markets, we will continue to prioritize profitability rather than market share.

The recent large acquisitions in the United Kingdom, that give us an improved presence and strength in the UK security market, are developing as expected even if they dilute the operating margin during 2011.

april–june 2011

Sales and market development

Sales amounted to MSEK 15,628 (15,424) and organic sales growth was 3 percent (0). The improvement in organic sales growth was supported mainly by the development in Security Services North America, Mobile and Monitoring and Security Services Ibero-America and relates to both the contract portfolio as well as an increase in extra sales. In Security Services Europe, the organic sales growth showed a fragmented picture. The majority of countries showed positive organic sales growth, but a few countries were significantly negative which impacted the business segment.

Real sales growth, including acquisitions and adjusted for changes in exchange rates, was 13 percent (3).

Operating income before amortization

Operating income before amortization was MSEK 747 (859) which, adjusted for changes in exchange rates, represented a decrease of –2 percent.

The Group's operating margin was 4.8 percent (5.6). The operating margin was negatively impacted mainly by Security Services Europe due to the loss of a few important contracts and difficulties to manage the wage cost increases in primarily France and Sweden. Security Services North America showed a flat operating margin, however supported by a settlement in a client dispute. Mobile and Monitoring's operating margin was also flat while Security Services Ibero-America's operating margin improved slightly. The acquisitions of Reliance Security Services and Chubb in the United Kingdom, along with Paragon Systems and Security Consultants Group in the USA, diluted the operating margin by –0.2 percent.

The price adjustments in the Group were behind the total wage cost increases in the second quarter.

Operating income after amortization

Amortization of acquisition related intangible assets amounted to MSEK –53 (–39).

Acquisition related costs impacted the quarter by MSEK –47 (–20). Restructuring and integration costs for Reliance and Chubb amounted to MSEK –23. Further information is provided in note 4.

Group development

JANUARY–JUNE 2011

Sales and market development

Sales amounted to MSEK 30,403 (30,295) and organic sales growth was 3 percent (–1). The positive development in organic sales growth derives foremost from Security Services North America and Security Services Ibero-America. In Security Services Europe, the majority of the countries showed positive organic sales growth, but a few countries were significantly negative due to a few large contract losses in the first half year.

Securitas organic sales growth in the first six months is estimated to be ahead of the market in North America and below market growth in Europe.

Real sales growth, including acquisitions and adjusted for changes in exchange rates, was 11 percent (2).

Operating income before amortization

Operating income before amortization was MSEK 1,460 (1,676) which, adjusted for changes in exchange rates, represented a decrease of –3 percent.

The Group's operating margin was 4.8 percent (5.5). The operating margin was negatively impacted mainly by the margin decline in Security Services Europe and relates to the loss of a few large contracts, a price competitive environment and a discrepancy between price increases and wage cost increases. Security Services North America showed a flat operating margin, however supported by a settlement in a client dispute. Mobile and Monitoring and Security Services Ibero-America showed a decline in their respective business segments. The acquisitions of Reliance Security Services and Chubb in the United Kingdom, along with Paragon Systems and Security Consultants Group in the USA, diluted the operating margin by –0.2 percent.

The operating margin of 6.0 percent (6.0) was positively impacted by 0.4 percent through a settlement in a client dispute. The operating margin in the core business was negatively impacted by the price competitive environment. The operating margin was diluted by –0.2 percent due to the acquisitions of primarily Paragon Systems and Security Consultants Group.

The U.S. dollar exchange rate had a negative effect on the operating result in Swedish kronor. The real change was 12 percent in the second quarter.

January–June 2011

Organic sales growth was 4 percent (–5) in the first half year and was primarily driven by the positive net change in the contract portfolio in the second half of 2010. The sales of specialized security solutions as percentage of total sales increased in the first half year.

April–June 2011

Organic sales growth was 0 percent (3) in the second quarter. The organic sales growth levels differ between the countries in the business segment even though the majority were positive in the quarter. In the guarding operation, countries such as Germany and Turkey showed good organic sales growth. Due to large contract losses, as previously reported, the development was significantly negative in Belgium and the United Kingdom. As reported in the first quarter 2011, the contract with the European Commission in Belgium worth approximately MEUR 36 in annual sales, expired on April 1, 2011. The level of extra sales increased in the quarter compared to last year.

The operating margin was 3.1 percent (4.7). The loss of major contracts represented –0.6 percent of the decline, acquisition related margin dilution –0.4 percent and discrepancy between price and wage cost increases represented –0.6 percent. The discrepancy between price and wage cost increases is primarily deriving from France and Sweden.

The euro exchange rate had a slight negative impact on the operating income in Swedish kronor. The real change was –25 percent in the quarter.

January–June 2011

Organic sales growth was 1 percent (2) in the first half year. Most countries had positive organic sales growth, but despite that organic sales growth declined in the first half year. The decline is explained by the significantly negative organic sales growth in Belgium and the United Kingdom. As previously reported in the third quarter report 2010, the first half year was impacted by some contracts losses of exceptional magnitude. Security Services Europe lost a major contract in the United Kingdom and the contract with Brussels Airport in Belgium during the second half of 2010. Both contract losses were effective early in the first quarter 2011. On April 1 2011, the contract with the European Commission in Belgium worth approximately MEUR 36 annually in sales expired. The annual impact on sales from the contract losses is estimated to –3 percent in the business segment. The price pressure in the security market and the price aggressiveness from competition is fierce in many countries and especially in France.

The operating margin was 3.5 percent (4.8). The lost contracts had a negative effect on the operating margin and together with the transition and reduction of personnel, the total negative impact on the operating margin was –0.4 percent in the business segment. The acquisitions of Reliance Security Services and Chubb in the United Kingdom diluted the operating margin by –0.4 percent compared to the same period last year. The remaining deviation of –0.5 percent is due to discrepancies between price and wage cost increases, primarily in France and Sweden.

The remedy to manage the development in Europe is to continue with the specialization and added value strategy, to prioritize profitability when managing the price increases in relation to wage cost increases and to reduce overhead costs.

The euro exchange rate had a negative impact on the operating income in Swedish kronor. The real change was –19 percent for the first half year.

The client retention rate was slightly below 90 percent. The employee turnover rate was 29 percent (25).

April–June 2011

Organic sales growth was 4 percent (1). In the Mobile operation, most countries had positive organic sales growth and countries such as Belgium, Germany and Norway were above average. In the Monitoring operation, all countries except Belgium and Spain had positive organic sales growth.

The operating margin was 10.5 percent (10.5). In the Mobile operation, the operating margin was diluted by –0.1 percent due to the acquisition of Reliance Security Services in the United Kingdom. In the Monitoring operation, the operating margin was negatively affected by due diligence costs related to an acquisition that was not completed. Adjusted for these one off effects, the operating margin improved. The real change in operating income in the business segment was 8 percent in the quarter.

January–June 2011

Organic sales growth was 3 percent (2). In the Mobile operation, the improvement in organic sales growth was supported by countries such as Belgium and Norway. In the Monitoring operation, good organic sales growth was seen in Sweden and Norway while Belgium, France and Spain showed negative organic sales growth.

The operating margin was 10.5 percent (10.9). In the Mobile operation, the operating margin was negatively impacted by primarily increased fuel costs. Also, it was diluted by –0.1 percent due to the acquisition of Reliance Security Services in the United Kingdom. In the Monitoring operation, the operating margin was negatively affected by restructuring costs in Belgium, France and Spain and due diligence costs related to an acquisition that was not completed. Adjusted for these one off costs, the operating margin in the Monitoring operation improved. The real change in operating income in the business segment was 1 percent in the first half year.

April–June 2011

Organic sales growth was 11 percent (0) in the second quarter and all countries in Security Services Ibero-America had positive organic sales growth. The second quarter last year was pressured by negative organic sales growth in Spain.

The operating margin was 6.3 percent (6.2). The improvement derives from the Latin American countries with good performance and helped by acquisitions made in Argentina and Chile. The operating margin in Spain and Portugal has declined due to the highly price competitive market and a discrepancy between price and wage cost increases.

The currency exchange rates had a negative impact on the operating income in Swedish kronor. The real change was 20 percent in the quarter.

January–June 2011

Organic sales growth was 9 percent (0) in the first half year and positive organic sales growth was seen in all countries. The first half 2010 was pressured by negative organic sales growth in Spain.

The operating margin was 6.0 percent (6.3). The decline in the operating margin is due to the development in Spain and Portugal, where market conditions remain difficult and price increases did not meet wage cost increases.

The currency exchange rates had a negative impact on the operating income in Swedish kronor. The real change was 8 percent in the first half year.

The client retention rate was 87 percent. The employee turnover rate was 34 percent.

Cash flow

Quarterly free cash flow Quarterly free cash flow

April–June 2011

Operating income before amortization amounted to MSEK 747 (859). Net investments in noncurrent tangible and intangible assets amounted to MSEK –35 (22).

Changes in accounts receivable was MSEK –484 (–354) for the second quarter. An increase in days of sales outstanding (DSO) impacted the quarter negatively. A major explanation for the increase in DSO is due to the integration of Reliance Security Services where a change in credit- and collection procedures have resulted in an increase. This is expected to be collected during the second half of the year.

Changes in other operating capital employed was MSEK –107 (–185). The negative payroll timing from the Netherlands that impacted the first quarter 2011 has been reduced during the second quarter, but for the full year 2011 a negative impact is expected compared to full year 2010. This is due to the payroll system with almost a full extra salary period falling into 2011 compared to 2010. Another negative impact in the quarter was explained by a VAT payment that is related to the Reliance Security Services acquisition.

Cash flow from operating activities amounted to MSEK 121 (342), equivalent to 16 percent (40) of operating income before amortization.

Financial income and expenses paid amounted to MSEK –274 (–317). Current taxes paid amounted to MSEK –333 (–295).

Free cash flow was MSEK –486 (–270), equivalent to –100 percent (–49) of adjusted income.

Cash flow from items affecting comparability was MSEK –3 (–1).

Cash flow from financing activities was MSEK 134 (153).

Cash flow for the period was MSEK –1,195 (–465).

Operating income before amortization amounted to MSEK 1,460 (1,676). Net investments in non-current tangible and intangible assets amounted to MSEK –33 (28).

Changes in accounts receivable was MSEK –743 (–644) for the period, and is explained by an increase in the days of sales outstanding (DSO) including the impact relating to the integration of Reliance Security Services described above.

Changes in other operating capital employed was MSEK –754 (1). The first half year was negatively impacted by the settlement with US Army in the first quarter. The negative payroll timing from the Netherlands that impacted the first quarter 2011 has been reduced during the second quarter, but for the full year 2011 a negative impact is expected compared to full year 2010. Another negative impact in the second quarter was explained by a VAT payment that is related to the Reliance Security Services acquisition. The first six months last year was positively impacted by payroll timing in the US and Canada.

Cash flow from operating activities amounted to MSEK –70 (1,061), equivalent to –5 percent (63) of operating income before amortization.

Financial income and expenses paid amounted to MSEK –335 (–403). Current taxes paid amounted to MSEK –442 (–404).

The Group's net debt amounted to MSEK 10,924 (8,209 as of December 31, 2010). Acquisitions and acquisition related payments increased the Group's net debt by MSEK 977, of which purchase price payments accounted for MSEK 846, assumed net debt for MSEK 51 and acquisition related costs paid accounted for MSEK 80. The Group's net debt decreased by MSEK –212 due to the translation of net debt in foreign currency to Swedish kronor.

A dividend of MSEK 1,095 (1,095) was paid to the shareholders in May 2011.

The free cash flow to net debt ratio amounted to 0.08 (0.24).

The main capital market instruments drawn as of the end of June 2011 were eight bonds issued under the Group's Euro Medium Term Note Program. These comprised the 6.50 percent MEUR 500 Eurobond loan maturing in 2013, and seven floating rates notes (FRN's). Four of these FRN's are denominated in SEK, two for MSEK 1,000 issued in the second quarter 2011 and maturing in 2012, and two for MSEK 500 maturing in 2014. Another two FRN's are denominated in USD, one for MUSD 40 and one for MUSD 62. Both of these loans mature in 2015. There is also a MEUR 45 FRN maturing in 2014.

In addition to the above, Securitas has access to committed bank financing through a new Revolving Credit Facility (RCF) which was signed with 12 Swedish and international banks in January 2011. The new RCF comprises two respective tranches of MUSD 550 and MEUR 420 (MUSD 1,100 in total), and matures in 2016. There is also an RCF maturing in 2012 of MUSD 100 for issuance of letters of credit only.

Review report

Translation of the Swedish original

We have reviewed this report for the period January 1, 2011 to June 30, 2011 for Securitas AB (publ). The board of directors and the President and CEO 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.

We conducted our review in accordance with the Swedish Standard on Review Engagements SÖG 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.

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.
