First quarter 2014

• Sales declined by 25%, adjusted for currency and companies disposed of, to SEK 932 million (1,254)
• Operating profit (EBITA) totalled SEK 94 million (122)
• Strong EBITA margin of 10.1% (9.7)
• The Board of Directors has set new financial targets and revised the dividend policy

Sales

Group sales totalled SEK 932 million (1,254). Adjusted for currency and companies disposed of, sales declined by 25%.

Nolato Medical's sales totalled SEK 326 million (328) which, adjusted for currency, was a decline of 2%. Volumes were solid during February and March, while January was weaker than last year's strong January.

Nolato Telecom's sales totalled SEK 320 million (627) which, adjusted for currency, was a decline of 50%. As announced in the year-end report, the very strong demand in the consumer market for a number of models which contributed to the very high sales in 2013, has not been repeated this quarter. At the same time, the business area has been negatively affected by developments for a North American customer. Operations within the EMC area, electromagnetic screening, have developed positively during the quarter.

Nolato Industrial's sales totalled SEK 286 million (299) which, adjusted for currency and companies disposed, was an increase of a full 6%. Demand within the automotive segment has been satisfactory, at the same time as increased market shares have delivered a positive effect.

Profit

Consolidated operating profit (EBITA) totalled SEK 94 million (122). The decline in sales has resulted in lower earnings.

Nolato Medical's operating profit (EBITA) rose to SEK 45 million (43), Nolato Telecom's earnings declined to SEK 23 million (57) and Nolato Industrial's amounted to SEK 31 million (29).

Overall, the Group's EBITA margin was 10.1% (9.7). Strong margins for Nolato Medical and Nolato Industrial contributed to the good Group margin. The flexible cost structure in Asia has at the same time enabled the margin to be kept at a satisfactory level for Nolato Telecom despite lower sales.

Operating profit (EBIT) totalled SEK 90 million (118).

Profit after net financial income/expense was SEK 88 million (113). Net financial income/expense included exchange rate fluctuations affecting earnings by SEK -1 million (-3).

Profit after tax amounted to SEK 67 million (85). Earnings per share, basic and diluted, stood at SEK 2.55 (3.23). Adjusted earnings per share excluding amortisation of intangible assets arising from acquisitions were SEK 2.66 SEK (3.35). The effective tax rate was 24% (25).

Return on capital employed was 24.7% for the last twelve months (26.7% for the 2013 calendar year). Return on equity was 22.3% for the last twelve months (24.9% for the 2013 calendar year).

Operating profit (EBITA) rose to SEK 45 million (43). The EBITA margin was a solid 13.8% (13.1). The margin was positively impacted by high productivity and favorable product mix.

Nolato Telecom's sales totalled SEK 320 million (627) which, adjusted for currency, was a fall of 50%. As announced in the year-end report, the very strong demand in the consumer market for a number of models which contributed to the very high sales in 2013, has not been repeated this quarter.

Operations within the EMC area, electromagnetic screening, have developed positively during the quarter.

Operating profit (EBITA) declined to SEK 23 million (57). The EBITA margin was 7.2% (9.1). The flexible cost structure in Asia, along with the increased proportion of EMC, has enabled the margin to be kept at a satisfactory level despite the lower sales.

Sales	286	299
Operating profit (EBITA)	31	29
EBITA margin (%)	10.8	9.7
Operating profit (EBIT)	30	28

Nolato Industrial's sales totalled SEK 286 million (299) which, adjusted for currency and companies disposed of, was an increase of a full 6%. Demand within the automotive segment has been good, at the same time as increased market shares have delivered a positive effect.

Operating profit (EBITA) rose to SEK 31 million (29), with a strong EBITA margin of 10.8% (9.7). Successful lean work and a favourable product mix had a positive impact on the margin.

Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1

The lower requirement for working capital compared with the corresponding period of the previous year led cash flow before investments to rise to SEK 61 million (40). However, increased sales and activity during the quarter compared with late 2013, which was affected by the long Christmas holiday, led to an increased requirement for working capital. The change in working capital was a negative SEK 44 million (-72). Cash flow after investment activities was SEK 17 million (16). Net investments affecting cash flow totalled SEK 44 million (24).

Financial position

Interest-bearing assets totalled SEK 283 million (238) and interest-bearing liabilities and provisions totalled SEK 150 million (338). The financial net assets thus totalled SEK 133 million (-100). Equity amounted to SEK 1,407 million (1,247). The equity/assets ratio was 54% (44). Adjusted for the proposed dividend of SEK 210 million, the equity/assets ratio was 50% (41).

Personnel Contact:

The average number of employees during the period was 6,039 (11,418). The decrease in the number of employees is attributable to Nolato Telecom in China and arose as a result of lower volumes.

Significant risks and uncertainty factors

The business risks and risk management of the Group and the Parent Company, along with the management of financial risks, are described in the 2013 Annual Report on pages 14, 48 – 49, and in Note 4 on pages 59 – 60.

No significant events have occurred during the period that would significantly affect or change these descriptions of the Group's and the Parent Company's risks or the management thereof.

Events after the balance sheet date

The Board of Directors has set new financial targets for the Nolato Group, and also revised the dividend policy. The new targets mean that the Group will be managed in respect of good earnings, capacity to generate cash flow and a sound level of financial risk. The change should be viewed in the light of today's balanced group structure with three business areas and more prominent market positions. The new financial targets are a better reflection of this strategic focus, and simultaneously provide financial freedom with regard to new acquisitions and/or good potential for dividends for the shareholders.

The new financial targets, which should be viewed over a business cycle, are as follows:

• To achieve an operating margin (EBITA) in excess of 10% (an increase compared with the previous target of a minimum of 8%).

• To achieve cash conversion in excess of 75% of EBIT profit, measured as a ratio of cash flow after investments and the EBIT profit. Cash flow after investments is debited with financial expenses and tax plus investments, but not acquisitions or disposal. Cash conversion is a new target which includes possibilities for self-financing acquisitions and/or dividends to shareholders with internally generated funds.

• To achieve an equity/assets ratio in excess of 35% (unchanged).

In addition, the Board of Directors intends to propose an annual dividend which exceeds 50% of profits after tax, taking into account Nolato's longterm development potential, financial position and investment requirements. (An increase compared with the previous policy of a minimum of 35%).

No other significant events have occurred since the end of the period.
