INTERIM REPORT JANUARY – JUNE 2022

CEO's Statement

After several years of investment in innovation and product development, we are upscaling our sales & marketing efforts to reach out to the market with new solutions. Our positioning as a vendor of specialized software for telecom and cybersecurity is clear now that we have divested our Services business. Delays in some projects and new deals impacted net sales and operating profit in the quarter.

The divestment of our Software Development Services business was completed in the second quarter of 2022. This transaction strengthens our financial position and sharpens the focus on our core business in Network Solutions. This is another vital step in the transformation that Enea is undergoing, from its role as a subcontractor of services and embedded software for a few key accounts, to a company delivering telecom and cybersecurity software products for a global base of leading operators and system vendors. We are building this transformation on several carefully selected strategic acquisitions, where we have succeeded in creating world-leading products and winning new accounts, thanks to our successful integration strategy.

The transformation is enabling closer relationships with customers and a higher share of direct sales of software products. During the pandemic, we saw our customers' priorities shift towards short-term needs for coverage and capacity. We see that the macro-environment continues to make operators cautious in investment decisions, which has caused some delayed projects and a negative effect on sales of network solutions. Net sales in the second quarter of 2022 were SEK 217 million, and our operating profit was SEK 28 million, equivalent to an operating margin of 13 percent. Cash flow from operating activities was SEK 73 million. The net sales of our continued operations increased by 9 percent year over year, due to the acquisition of AdaptiveMobile Security, a company with a leading market position in cybersecurity solutions for telecom networks.

We have a stable base of recurring revenues from maintenance contracts and license sales, including traffic intelligence software for some of the world's largest OEMs in enterprise communication. A new, more flexible financing structure offers scope to deal with quarterly variations in revenues and cash flow. Continued cost control and recently executed rationalizations of our organization contribute to lower costs in the quarter and during the rest of the year. We have started to strengthen our sales & marketing capability to improve the reach of our offering. As part of this initiative, new staff will work on sales to our largest accounts. Those actions create a base for further sequential improvements during the second half of the year. We are confident in our positioning as a specialized vendor of software for telecom and cybersecurity on a market with constantly increasing traffic volumes, new applications, as well as higher security and network performance standards.

Data management for 4G and 5G is a segment where we are challenging the established providers with innovative products and contracts with leading operators across Europe and North America. In the second quarter, we passed key milestones on these customer projects, which are approaching the point of commercial operation. Our solutions are built on open interfaces, enabling "digital telecom operators" to build systems with software from multiple vendors. This model offers major commercial benefits, and it is important that the leading operators show the way and demonstrate that this new technology is stable and ready for large-scale use.

The security of telecom systems remains a key issue and cyberattacks are increasing in many countries because of geopolitical tensions. Our solutions for signaling and messaging security are already in use on networks worldwide. In the second quarter, we integrated the AdaptiveMobile Security brand more closely with Enea, and announced a contract with Digicel, who entrusted us to deliver cybersecurity solutions for 26 mobile networks across Central America, increasing our market shares in this region. We note growing interest on several markets, including North America, while we are also seeing that the division of responsibility between European regulators and private telecom operators is unclear, which risks delaying secure telecommunication in the region.

Outlook

The market for data management in 5G and advanced cybersecurity is in an early phase, where we can challenge established competitors and win market shares with innovative products and new business models. Our ambition is to increase revenues briskly, while maintaining good profitability, through organic growth in Network Solutions plus complementary strategic acquisitions that advance our market positioning.

Individual deals and licensing revenues may cause variations in revenues between individual quarters. This effect has increased as Network Solutions represent a larger share of our total net sales. Our long-term target of sales growth and an operating profit above 20 percent remains, but an uncertain macro environment and a weak first half-year means that we judge it challenging to reach our profitability target for 2022.

The listed market price used for the group's financial assets is the current purchase price for corporate bonds. These are level 1 instruments.

Level 2: Fair value of financial instruments not traded on an active market (e.g. OTC derivatives are measured with the aid of valuation techniques). The group has currency derivatives, which are used for hedging purposes. Currency hedges are measured at market value by conducting an early allocation of the currency hedge to determine what the forward price would be if the maturity were at the reporting date. As of 30 June 2022, the group's currency hedged amounted to a liability of SEK 0.3 million, which is the total of level 2.

Level 3: The group does not report any financial instruments at level 3 as of 30 June 2022 in the balance sheet but has a 1.7 MEUR holdback regarding divested business as mentioned on page 8.

For other financial assets and liabilities, carrying amount is consistent with fair value

INTERIM REPORT JANUARY – JUNE 2022

Accounting for Legal Entities, for the parent company. The same accounting policies, definitions of key figures and computation methods have been applied as in the most recent annual accounts of the group and the parent company, unless otherwise stated below.

Material Risks and Uncertainties

Enea is mainly active in cybersecurity and telecommunication. Current external uncertainties, such as pandemic, the war in Ukraine and the global economy, affect some customers' risk appetites and willingness to invest. For Enea, this could mean some projects being delayed or aborted. Meanwhile, the underlying drivers of telecommunication, involving a continued focus on virtualization, 5G and increased network capacity, remain.

Enea's business strategy is based on developing new products and refining existing solutions, which means substantial investments. At period-end, capitalized development expenses amounted to SEK 313.1 million (250.5). Investments target markets with high growth and profitability potential, after thorough analysis. If despite this, products fail to achieve technical or financial success, the company's business and financial position may be negatively affected. This may lead to changes in strategies and priorities.

Since there were no other significant changes to material risks and uncertainties in the quarter, the reader is referred to the review on pages 34-37 of the most recent Annual Report.

Long-term Ambition

Enea's mission is to be a world-leading supplier of software components for telecommunication and cybersecurity. The market for data management in 5G, virtualization, and advanced cybersecurity is entering an exciting phase, where Enea can challenge established competitors and win market shares with innovative products and new business models. Overall, its ambition is to increase revenue robustly through the coming years, with an operating margin exceeding 20 percent, through organic growth in Network Solutions, plus complementary strategic acquisitions that advance Enea's market position. The operating margin will vary between quarters, tracking growth. Growth and earnings performance will vary during years and between quarters, primarily due to when individual transactions occur, and the progress of royalty streams. The divestment of the Software Development Services business means that the company's long-term financial ambition needs review, which is scheduled after the fourth quarter of 2022.

Outlook for 2022

Individual deals and licensing revenues may cause variations in revenues between individual quarters. This effect has increased as Network Solutions represent a larger share of our total net sales. Our long-term target of sales growth and an operating profit above 20 percent remains, but an uncertain macro environment and a weak first half-year means that we now judge it challenging to reach the profitability target during 2022.
