Beijer Electronics Group — Earnings Release 2014

Oct 13, 2014

Malmö, Sweden, October 13, 2014

Beijer Electronics implements a number of actions aimed at improving profitability within business area IAS

In respect of the information which appeared in the media, Beijer Electronics announces the following:

Business area IAS has struggled with unsatisfactory profitability for a long time. To address the problem, a process has been initiated to identify measures that are designed to restore profitability over the coming three years. The initial efforts aim at lifting the earnings in the IAS division by 25 million during 2015. The restructuring costs will primarily be taken in the fourth quarter in 2014.

To achieve this improvement in profitability, the business area will narrow its focus both in terms of geography and offer to the market. Some minor parts of the business will therefore be closed while efficiency measures are introduced elsewhere.

Overall, expected around 40 full time positions are affected, of which ten in Sweden.
