CEO's comments
The third quarter of 2015 was a fantastic quarter for CellaVision, with historically strong growth in both sales and profitability. Sales increased by 58 percent compared with the same period in the previous year and the operating margin was 41 percent, to be compared with an operating margin of 16 percent in the corresponding quarter in 2014.
The main explanation for this very sound growth is the order for veterinary medicine laboratories in North America. Deliveries and installation have gone according to plan and final delivery will be completed before the end of the current year. For the full year 2015 we continue to expect an operative operating profit in excess of SEK 65 million.
The veterinary order had a major impact on growth in the Americas, which was 113 percent in the quarter. APAC also reported a positive trend, with sales growth of 50 percent and satisfactory growth in Japan and China that are our priority markets in the region.
The human market continues to be the most important for CellaVision and constitutes about 15,000 large laboratories, where we have currently penetrated about 12 percent. The corresponding market for large veterinary laboratories is currently estimated to be about 500.
We are now at a stage where we are identifying the most important success factors in the veterinary market, a market where we see long term growth potential.
CellaVision's growth ambitions also include expanding the product offer to the approximately 100,000 small and medium-sized laboratories in the human segment and the approximately 5,000 small laboratories in the veterinary segment. Development of the future technology platform adapted to this type of laboratory passed an important milestone during the quarter, when the prototype phase was concluded and the project moved into a concrete development phase.
CellaVision implemented a new organization during the quarter, which includes greater focus on sales and marketing. As part of this, Mattias Lundin has taken up the newly established position of VP Global Sales. During the quarter we also established a new regional office in Shanghai with responsibility for our APAC operations.
We took several important steps in the quarter towards achieving our vision to be a leader in global digitization and automation of blood analyses for both the human and veterinary segments. Our method contributes to improved patient diagnostics, streamlining and reduced healthcare costs.

Sales, earnings and investment
July 1 - September 30
Net sales for the Group in the third quarter were SEK 74.5 million (47.0), an increase of 58 percent compared with the corresponding period in 2014. The increase is mainly because of the previously announced follow-up order to the veterinary market where the majority of the order was delivered during the quarter.
CellaVision invoices more than 90 percent of sales in EUR or USD, which means that exchange rate fluctuations have a major impact on the company's reported sales. Adjusted for exchange rate effects, sales increased by 47 per cent compared with the corresponding quarter in 2014.
The gross margin for the quarter was 74 percent (65). CellaVision sells directly to end customers in the veterinary market, which contributed to the improved gross margin in the quarter. In the third quarter of the previous year gross earnings were reduced by SEK 1.2 million for impairment loss on intangible assets. Cella-Vision usually has variations in gross margins between individual quarters, which is due to the distribution of sales via distributors as against own sales companies, as well as the product mix sold.
Total operating expenses in the third quarter were SEK 24.5 million (22.7). The increase is due to slightly increasing selling expenses and product development costs, which are in line with planned initiatives to
broaden the product portfolio and increase market presence.
CellaVision is conducting several development projects, aimed at strengthening the company's product offer to customers in the field of hematology. Capitalized expenditure for development projects was SEK 1.6 million for the quarter. The corresponding amount in the same period last year was SEK 0.3 million.
Increased sales combined with CellaVision's scalable business model led to strong operating profit in the quarter. The operating profit for the quarter was SEK 30.3 million (7.7) with an operating margin of 40.6 percent (16.3).
Investments in property, plant and equipment during the quarter amounted to SEK 0.4 million (0.6).
Seasonal variations
CellaVision has an unevenly distributed order flow over the year, depending on the distributors' sales, inventory levels and agreed volumes. The variation in order volume in individual quarters may be great in the different geographical regions.
Financial targets
Our objective is to create a global standard for digital microscopy in the sub-field hematology, aiming in the long term to be a world leading supplier in several sub-fields of laboratory medicine. The objective is broken down into two financial targets.
- • Sales growth ≥15% Increase sales over an economic cycle by an average of at least 15 percent per year.
- Operating margin >20 % The operating margin is to exceed 20 percent over an economic cycle.

Americas
Sales in the Americas amounted to SEK 47.8 million (22.4), which implies an increase of 113 percent compared with the corresponding quarter in 2014. The increase in sales is mainly explained by the order to laboratories for veterinary medicine in North America. Deliveries and installation have gone according to plan and final delivery will be completed before the end of the year.
The launch in the previous quarter of CellaVision® Remote Review Software Vet, which was specially developed for the needs of the veterinary market, was one of the factors that made the follow-up order possible. The software enables laboratory chains working in networks to share test results and digital cell images effectively.
On the human side, analyzer sales development was weaker in relation to the comparative quarter in 2014. The lower sales are mainly explained by some build-up of inventories at CellaVision's distributors and the product mix sold. However, the number of end customer installations in the quarter is at the same level as the previous year.
The replacement market in the Americas has not as yet taken off, since sales in the region got started somewhat later than in EMEA.

Sales in EMEA amounted to SEK 20.4 million, and were by large unchanged in relation to the comparative quarter in 2014 (20.5).
CellaVision is seeing continued wide interest in automated solutions in hematology in Western Europe and interest in the integrated Sysmex analyzer, the DI-60, is great. Sales have been made both to new customers with no previous digital morphology systems and as a replacement for older systems. The business is steered by procurements at the end user stage, which entails fluctuations in sales between quarters.
In the Middle East as well there are clear indications from CellaVision's distribution partners that interest in complete automation in hematology continues to grow. CellaVision therefore intends to establish a market support organization in the Middle East and initiated this work during the quarter.

The veterinary market
CellaVision's offer targets the pet market that is estimated to include upwards of 500 large reference laboratories globally and to date is most developed in North America and Northern Europe. This growing market is consolidated and dominated by a small number of major actors, constituting a market value of up to SEK 100 million annually.
Other market segments, not currently addressed by CellaVision, are fragmented and mainly consist of animal hospitals, small clinics, research and universities.
Globally the number of veterinary laboratories is about 100,000.
APAC
Sales in APAC were SEK 6.3 million (4.2), which means an increase of 50 percent compared with the corresponding quarter in 2014. Growth is still from a low level and primarily Japan continues to develop well in the region.
During the year the underlying growth in China of analyzer installations was good and the previously high inventory levels at CellaVision's distribution partners decreased during the quarter.
The registration process for the CellaVision® DM9600 in China is running according to plan and the sales start is expected to be at the beginning of 2016.
The focus of the newly established organization in APAC is continued penetration and growth in China and Japan. CellaVision is working actively with market development initiatives for further expansion in other markets in the region.
Research and Development
CellaVision is continually conducting a number of development projects, aimed at further strengthening the product portfolio.
The pre-study to produce products for small and midsize laboratories was completed during the quarter. The prototypes prepared have been evaluated and the most important questions concerning the technology have been answered. Consequently a project has been started aimed at producing a smaller analyzer. The project is extensive and is expected to continue over the coming years.
The work of strengthening CellaVision's offer for large, centralized networks has continued during the quarter and new software is being evaluated. It is planned to have the software ready for launch in early 2016.
CellaVision's patent portfolio today consists of 23 patent families covering 57 registered patents. During the quarter CellaVision pursued a number of cases concerning several different patent families in both extended protection and extended geographical scope.
The company continuously capitalizes expenditure on new development. Capitalized expenditure for development projects during the quarter amounted to SEK 1.6 million (0.3). The low level of capitalization in the corresponding quarter of the previous year was mainly due to the projects then being in the pre-study phase and thus not capitalizable.
Cash flow
The Group's cash and cash equivalents at the close of the quarter amounted to SEK 98.6 million (58.5).
Cash flow from operating activities for the quarter was SEK 34.5 million (13.3).
Total cash flow for the quarter was SEK 32.4 million (12.3).
Parent company
Parent company sales for the first quarter were SEK 73.5 million (44.7).
The pre-tax profit was SEK 26.6 million (6.4).
The parent company's investments in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets during the quarter amounted to SEK 1.9 million (0.9) and the cash flow to SEK 29.8 million (12.0).
In other respects please refer to the information for the Group.
Personnel
The number of employees of the Group, restated as full-time equivalents, was 74 (72) at the close of the period. Of these, 50 were men (44) and 24 women (28).
During the quarter Mattias Lundin took up the position of VP Global Sales. Mattias took up his new assignment on September 14, 2015. His most recent employment was with ArjoHuntleigh AB. Mattias Lundin has more than 17 years' experience of different senior management positions in sales and marketing, most of them in medical technology companies.
The previously initiated organization development was completed during the quarter, focusing on offering stronger market support in the various geographical regions.

Review Report
To the Board of Directors of CellaVision AB
Corporate identity number 556500-0998
Introduction
We have performed a review of the interim report for CellaVision AB (publ.) as per September 30, 2015 and the nine-month period ending on that date. The Board of Directors and the President are responsible for preparing and presenting this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.
Emphasis and scope of the review
We conducted our review in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information 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 has a different focus and is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with ISA and other generally accepted auditing standards. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain a level of assurance that would make us aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion that is expressed on the basis of a review does not give the same level of assurance as a conclusion based on an audit.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim report does not, in all material respects, accord with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act and, for the parent com¬pany, with the Annual Accounts Act.
