"Considering that a large part of our operations is late cyclical, which now can be seen in our revenues, and the fact that we have during the quarter initiated important Group wide change projects, I am relatively satisfied with the result we have achieved in this quarter. Our new organizational structure is in place and we have conducted a pilot project regarding a new sales concept, which over time could lead to a single sales force. Together with the other initiatives ongoing I am convinced that this will strengthen Eniro's position over the long term."
Our work to transform Eniro from print dependency to online opportunities continues. We are now in the midst of a Groupwide change process that will result in more relevant searches, greater customer confidence and a more efficient cost structure. To support the major projects now in progress and to gain additional cost savings, we established a new organization at the beginning of October.
The third quarter was characterized by intensive work to enhance our core local search business to become more relevant and user-friendly and to provide greater customer value. This work included launching Eniro Procurement, based on the Oreo acquisition, and a successful launch of white search. We are also conducting a test of a new sales concept based on a changed product mix over time and a single sales force that sells a directory database offering in which the key concepts are searchability, visibility and leads. The objective is to introduce a more effective sales concept that will be gradually introduced in our major markets during 2010. Thus far, the test has been successful.
Revenues declined three percent organically in the third quarter. We are never satisfied with negative growth figures, but today's weak economy continues to command great respect, at the same time as the structural decline in print continues. During the quarter, we have also seen lower operational cash flow. The extensive change projects that we are implementing
resulted in restructuring costs during the quarter that had a negative impact on earnings.
When we presented our strategy for transforming Eniro a year ago, we set mid-term targets to illustrate the development during the transition from declining demand for printed products to increasing online usage. We now see signs of a more rapid decline in print as a result of a general weakening of the economy. This is now affecting development in the short term before the full effect of the online investments now being made can be achieved. Despite this development, the medium-term outlook of a top line growth of 0 to 2 percent remains even though we expect the negative growth to continue into 2010.
However, I am convinced that we will see results of implementing our strategy towards the end of 2010 and that the development will continue during 2011 to finally achieve full effect as we reach the end the investment period in 2012. I am certain that the changes and investments now being implemented will strengthen Eniro's position over the long term.
Jesper Kärrbrink, President and CEO
During the third quarter, Eniro's online directory business with advertising revenues from small and medium-sized companies, showed continued resistance to the recession and grew organically by 7 percent. However, the print development was strongly negatively affected by the current recession during the quarter. Eniro's development must be viewed against the background of the continued negative trend for both general media investments and Internet advertising, compared with 2008. According to Mediebyråbarometern, Internet advertising in Sweden declined 12 percent during the first nine months of 2009. The trend was similar in Norway, where Internet advertising fell 11 percent over the first eight months of the year, according to Inma in Norway. Online directories, where Eniro has its core business has thus far been less affected than traditional Internet advertising.
That Eniro's online revenues were not as strongly affected by the recession was in part because Eniro's online services fulfil basic and critical marketing needs for most small and medium-sized companies in Eniro's markets.
In total, the Group's organic1 growth was a negative 3 percent during the quarter. During the same period, the Group's online revenues grew organically by 7 percent, primarily as a result of the steady growth of online directories noted during the period. However, online growth was restricted by weaker demand for more cyclically sensitive products, such as kvasir.no in Norway and banner ads.
During the quarter, the Group's revenues from Offline Media declined by 13 percent organically.
Eniro's business is undergoing a transformation in the form of a reduction in printed products to a growing online operation. This process is proceeding according to plan. Over the past 12 months, Online revenues accounted for 46 percent (42) of total Online and Offline revenues, which makes Eniro one of the companies that has made the greatest progress in the transformation from offline to online.
Work is in progress on several development projects within Online to both strengthen the customer offering and increase relevance for end users with a focus on core operations, but also on Business Facilitating Services.
During the quarter, new and improved functionality was launched for "White searches" on eniro.se (information about private persons). At the end of the period, Eniro
Upphandling (Eniro Procurement ) was launched in Sweden, a service developed on the basis of the acquisition of Oreo in February 2009. Eniro Upphandling is a new marketplace for all purchasers and suppliers. The service supports everything from large expert purchases (both public and private) to simpler requests, depending on requirements.
To improve and strengthen Eniro's customer relations, a number of measures were initiated during the period. In Sweden, a customer representative (kundombudsman) was appointed and a system will be implemented to ensure that sales work maintains high quality.
With the strategy to transform Eniro from print dependency to online opportunities, the company's offering and product mix will change over time. Since spring 2009, a Group-wide project has been in progress intended to study how Eniro's product offering and sales can be optimized based on a changed product mix. During September, a pilot project began with trial sales based on Eniro's various products and services combined in a number of package solutions containing components from all distribution channels. In the pilot, the sales force is thus selling both print and online products in a directory database concept and focusing on searchability, visibility and leads, instead of distribution channels.
The comprehensive review of the Group's cost structure that was initiated at the end of 2008 as a result of the new strategy continued according to plan during the period. In accordance with the goal of moving from a holding structure to a more rational corporate structure, it was announced after the end of the quarter that Eniro had reorganized Group management responsibilities based on Function. Three transnational functions were introduced: Products and Services, with Group responsibility for development of products and concepts, Operations with responsibility for the Group's local production and support functions, and Sales with responsibility for the Group's sales.
In Norway, customer service operations in Tönsberg were discontinued as a result of the decision to terminate production and distribution of Telefonkatalogen in Norway as of 2010. A total of 20 employees were affected by the change.
Work to increase efficiency will continue during the year and is expected to result in annual savings of about SEK 200 M as of 2010 and about SEK 300-400 M from 2013. While most of these savings will have a positive effect on earnings over the short and medium term, some of the savings will be reinvested in operations to drive long term growth and profitability.
1 Adjusted for currency effects, publication shifts, publication fees, changed bundling method, acquisitions and divestments.
Operating revenues during the quarter were in line with the same period in 2008 and amounted to SEK 1,500 M (1,480). Revenues were positively affected by currency effects. Organically, revenues declined by 3 percent.
Growth in Online continued during the quarter with an increase of 10 percent to SEK 644 M (587). Organically, Online revenues increased 7 percent, and Online revenues on a rolling 12-month basis accounted for 46 percent (42) of total Online and Offline revenues. During the quarter, the core business online directories, such as eniro.se and gulesider.no, continued to show steady growth, while the more cyclical product kvasir.no continued to show a negative trend.
Revenues from Offline Media amounted to SEK 588 M (656), a decline of 10 percent. Organically, Offline revenues declined by 13 percent, in part due to a continued decline in Norway.

EBITDA for the period amounted to SEK 404 M (478). Increased investments in product development and Online sales and lower revenues in Offline Media had a negative impact on EBITDA. Restructuring costs related to Groupwide projects and related to the organizational change also had a negative impact on EBITDA.

Operating profit for the nine-month period amounted to SEK 351 M (-192).
After ordinary impairment test of intangible assets in the third quarter, Eniro decided to recognize an impairment loss of SEK 67 M in Norway on the Telefonkatalogen brand and of SEK 454 M on customer relations related to Offline Media. Together with impairment made in the second quarter (Spray Passagen and non-core operations within Din Del), a total of SEK 549 M (1,203) has been recorded in marketing costs during the nine-month period.
It was also decided to shorten the amortization period for customer relations in Norway from ten to seven years. The shorter amortization period will result in a higher annual amortization of approximately SEK 80 M from Q4 2009.
Net financial items for the nine-month period amounted to SEK -359 M (-489).
Profit before tax, amounted to SEK -8 M (-681) for the ninemonth period.

The value of the tax deficit in Sweden had a positive effect on net profit in the first quarter of 2009 of about SEK 383 M. As a result of this ruling, Eniro expects to start using the tax losses during 2010 and will therefore not pay any tax in Sweden for the coming years.

Interest-bearing net debt in relation to EBITDA was 3.6, compared with 4.8 at the beginning of the year. During June, a rights offering was carried through that generated about SEK 2,360 M after transaction costs. During the first nine months of 2009, SEK 2,996 M of interest-bearing net debt was amortized.
On September 30, 2009, outstanding debt under the credit facility amounted to NOK 4,750 M, EUR 80 M, DKK 400 M and SEK 432 M.
Of this facility, NOK 4,250 M and SEK 360 M is hedged at a fixed interest rate until the maturity date (August 2012), corresponding to approximately 71 percent of the facility.
Eniro has a credit facility of SEK 1,000 M, of which SEK 72 M has been used. Cash and unutilized credit facilities amounted to about SEK 1,243 M at September 30, 2009.

The financial information is presented in line with the new organization and based on the management's monitoring of financial trends. In addition, comparison data for 2008 is presented. See also pages 15 and 16 in the interim report.
The amendment means that an entity shall capitalize only borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset as part of the cost of that asset. The amendment has not had a material impact on the financial statements.
The following changes of existing standards have been published and are mandatory for financial years starting on July 1, 2009 or later and will be adopted from the effective date.
The amendment is still subject to endorsement by the European Union. The amendment requires that results relating to minority interests should always reflect the minority shareholders' proportionate interest, even if the minority interest is negative. The amendment will affect the reporting of future transactions.
-IFRS 3 (Amendment), Business Combinations (effective July 1, 2009). The amendment is still subject to endorsement by the European Union. The amendment applies to acquisitions after the effective date and stipulates changes in reporting of future acquisitions. For example, all payments for acquiring businesses are to be recognized at fair value on the date of acquisition. Adjustments to the initial purchase value are recognized in profit and loss. All transaction costs concerning the acquisition are expensed. The amendment will not affect previous acquisitions but will affect the reporting of future transactions as of 1 January 2010.
A more detailed description of the accounting principles applied by Eniro is presented in the 2008 Annual Report.
Revenues from the sale of printed directories are reported when the various directories are published. Changes in planned publication dates can thus affect comparisons between the same quarters for different years.

Revenues from the sale of bundled products are distributed between offline and online revenues according to a distribution ratio that reflects the market value of each product. The value for the advertiser is measured continuously through customer surveys where the customers estimate the value of commercial use.
Sales of bundled products in the Swedish operations are expected to amount to approximately SEK 400 M. 50 percent (40) of bundled revenues will be reported as online revenues, while 50 percent (60) will be reported as offline revenues.
Sales of bundled products in Norway are expected to amount to approximately NOK 140 M. A total of 70 percent (70) of bundled revenues will be reported as online revenues, while 30 percent (30) will be reported as offline revenues.
Eniro has a structured Group-wide program for risk analysis, which is integrated with business planning work in order to further improve Eniro's processes for risk analysis and risk management.
Eniro endeavors to efficiently identify, assess and manage a wide range of risks. Eniro has categorized the risks it faces as industry- and market-related risks, commercial risks, operative risks, financial risks, compliance risks relating to laws and regulations, and financial reporting risks. Annually, the company assesses the different risk categories in order to identify risks and uncertainties in a systematic manner.
Eniro's business environment is undergoing changes. Examples of significant industry and market-related risks in Eniro's operations include the risk of new types of competitor constellations and competitor cooperation, the risk of changes in customer behavior and user behavior, the risk of rapid technological advances or technology shifts, as well as the risk that competitors will develop new and improved services. The current macro-economic uncertainty has increased the market and financial risks, especially the re-financing risk in the light of the Group's high indebtedness. A more complete description of Eniro's risks and uncertainties are presented in Eniro's annual report for 2008 on pages 54-56 under the heading Risk management.
In accordance with the goal of moving from a holding structure to a more rational corporate structure, Eniro has reorganized Group management and introducing three transnational functions Products and Services, Operations and Sales. Mattias Hedlund has been appointed Senior Vice President of Products and Services with Group-wide responsibility for development of products and concepts. Hans-Petter Terning has been appointed Senior Vice President of Operations with responsibility for the Group's local production and local support functions. Peter
Kusendahl has been appointed Senior Vice President of Sales with responsibility for the Group's sales.
Eniro's new management group consist of Jesper Kärrbrink, President and CEO; Jan Johansson, CFO; Mathias Hedlund, Senior Vice President of Products and Services; Hans-Petter Terning, Senior Vice President of Operations; Peter Kusendahl, Senior Vice President of Sales; Roger Asplund, President of Eniro Poland; Mattias Wedar, Chief Information Officer; Charlotta Wikström, Director HR; and Åsa Wallenberg, Director Communications.
Martin Carlesund, former President of Eniro Sweden and acting President of Eniro Finland and Henrik Dyring, previously President of Eniro Denmark, decided to resign in conjunction with the changes.
Following a decision by the 2009 Annual General Meeting, a Nomination Committee was appointed. The Nomination Committee for the 2010 Annual General Meeting consists of Jan Andersson, Swedbank Robur funds, Hans Ek, SEB funds, Peter Rudman, Nordea Investment funds, Pia Axelsson, Fourth Swedish National Pension Fund and Lars Berg, Chairman of the Eniro Board. The Nomination Committee appointed Jan Andersson to serve as Chairman of the committee. Shareholders wishing to submit proposals to the Nomination Committee can do so by email to: [email protected]
Stockholm, October 28, 2009
Jesper Kärrbrink President and CEO
We have reviewed the interim report for the period January 1, 2009 - September 30, 2009 for Eniro AB (Publ). The board of directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements SÖG 2410, Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, issued by FAR. 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 Standards on Auditing in Sweden RS and other generally accepted auditing practices. 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 expressed based on a review does not give the same level of assurance as a conclusion expressed based on an audit.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim financial information is not, in all material respects, prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act.
