Statement from President and CEO Eva Nygren:

Rejlers continues to experience growth. During 2012, growth was 16 per cent, two-thirds of which was organic. With a strong position on markets such as Energy and Infrastructure and despite indications of a weaker market within both Industry and Construction and property, we have continued to see a good inflow of orders during the fourth quarter.

Excluding non-recurring costs and calendar effects, profit is at a similar level to last year and growth is in line to meet the 2015 target. With a good profit trend for activities and a continued focus on profitable growth, the profit margin target over one business cycle has been increased to 10 per cent.

A reorganisation has taken place in Sweden, which is expected to lead to greater cooperation at national level. It also gives us better opportunities to meet the future needs of our customers and our employees. The change also facilitates international cooperation and helps us to continue building a strong Rejlers in our Nordic and Baltic markets.

Based on Rejlers' corporate culture and with intensified brand work, we are building on the platform for continued growth.

Revenue and profits

October–December 2012

Revenue for the fourth quarter totalled SEK 388.6 million (322.7), an increase of 20 per cent compared with the same quarter last year. The operating profit was SEK 24.1 million (26.4). The operating margin was 6.2 per cent (8.2). Earnings per share were SEK 1.60 (1.21). The debiting ratio was 77 per cent (76). The reasons for the fall in profit for the quarter include there being two fewer working days in the quarter compared with the previous year and a weaker inflow of orders for Finland's Industry operations.

January–December 2012

Revenue for the year totalled SEK 1,332.7 million (1,146.0), an increase of 16 per cent compared with the previous year. The operating profit was SEK 79.4 million (100.3).

The profit after net financial items was SEK 76.0 million (97.6) and the profit after tax was SEK 58.5 million (64.4). Earnings per share were SEK 5.17 (5.68). Financial income totalled SEK 2.2 million (2.4), and financial expenses totalled SEK -5.6 million (-5.1).

Profit was affected by non-recurring costs of around SEK 16 million, which related to the employee conference in connection with Rejlers' 70th anniversary and restructuring costs. There were three fewer working days in the year compared with the previous year.

The organisation was strengthened during the year through the key recruitment of new employees in order to support the continued expansion of Rejlers and the growth target of 2015 x 3, i.e. by the year 2015 we will have at least 2,015 employees and revenue of at least SEK 2,015 million.

The Parent Company

The Parent Company's net revenue for the period amounted to SEK 18.0 million (16.7), with the profit after tax amounting to SEK 28.1 million (19.2).

Significant events during the fourth quarter and after the end of the period

Eva K Nygren has been appointed the new CFO of Rejlers. She joins the Group Management and took up her post on 1 February. Conny Udd becomes the new MD of the largest company in the Rejlers Group, Rejlers Ingenjörer.

Rejlers will be implementing an organisational change in Sweden from 1 March 2013. The primary aim of this change is to increase cooperation within and between Rejlers activities in the Nordic and Baltic regions.

Rejlers is strengthening its competence within ventilation and sanitation and electrical engineering for the construction and property market in Finland through the acquisition of Insinööritoimisto Enerplan Oy. The company has six employees and achieved revenue of EUR 0.5 million in 2011.

Rejlers activities in Estonia are being discontinued.

Segment Rejlers Sweden (including Norway and Estonia)

Operations in the Sweden operating segment are run by the Group companies Rejlers Ingenjörer AB, Rejlers Energitjänster AB, ComIT Rejlers AB and Rejlers Drift och Underhåll AB, as well as the Estonian company Rejlers OÜ and the Norwegian company Rejlers AS. Rejlers Sweden provides consultancy services in the fields of electrical engineering, energy, mechanical engineering, automation, electronics, IT and telecommunications, primarily to four customer groups: Infrastructure, Industry, Energy, and Construction and property. Rejlers also provides energy metering services to utility companies, electricity trading companies, and property companies. At the end of the period, the Rejlers Sweden segment had 1,079 (957) employees.

The market

The market situation is difficult to judge, but the outlook remains good within the Energy and Infrastructure markets in the Nordic region. Rejlers occupies a strong position here, with an increased inflow of orders and new business opportunities. Rejlers has a continuous need for recruitment within all customer groups. Revenue increased by 18 per cent and the number of employees rose by 13 per cent in segment Sweden over the year.

Rejlers industrial consultants were fully employed during the year, thanks to an increase in investments in machinery and product development. Both order inflow and profitability have improved. Demand for our services within environment and energy surveys for the industry and property sectors is good.

The growth in the energy market is being driven by improved energy efficiency, sustainability and security solutions. Rejlers is contracted for planning, project planning and inspection when new wind farms are constructed at various sites in Sweden. Rejlers has ongoing assignments for the nuclear power industry, where our customers are OKG, Forsmark and Ringhals. Demand for energy metering services is increasing and there is market potential for the handling and analysis of large volumes of energy data.

Large-scale investments are planned for the next few years, including upgrading the road and rail networks in the Nordic region and expanding the telecommunications network. New investments and the maintenance of railways is a priority area and we have signed new framework agreements with the Swedish Transport Administration. Rejlers has been entrusted with assignments for large ongoing infrastructure projects, including Citybanan and Norra länken (the Northern Link). Rejlers telecommunications activities are growing through new assignments and new customers. Cross-border projects are becoming increasingly common. Rejlers is following the customer and working on the network planning and network design of fixed and mobile networks covering the entire Nordic region.

During the second half of 2012, we saw a drop in orders received from the construction sector. We believe that there will continue to be healthy demand for consultancy services with regard to new offices, as well as public and commercial properties in the major cities.

Rejlers has increased its presence in the Norwegian energy market over the course of the year. Large-scale investments are being made within the electric mains area, among others. In 2012 we performed a basic review of the energy consumption of all Norwegian prisons for the Norwegian public construction and property management company, Statsbygg. 2012 was also a successful year for telecommunications activities in Norway.

Examples of assignments during the fourth quarter and after the end of the period

• In Piteå the plans to construct a large new wind farm, with the potential for almost 1,100 wind power turbines, are far advanced. Rejlers has been commissioned to project plan parts of the new power cable that will transfer electricity from the wind farm to the national grid. Rejlers' assignments are worth almost EUR 500,000.

• Norway's national football stadium, the Ullevaal Stadium, is to be expanded with 3,000 new seats, new VIP areas and space for 160 new office workers. Rejlers is responsible for the project planning of all electrical installations associated with the redevelopment.

• Rejlers has been commissioned to provide strategic support to the Swedish Transport Administration and has been given the assignment to draft two of the Swedish Transport Administration's applications within the EU TEN-T programme, the Trans-European Transport Network. The applications must demonstrate how an improved Swedish transport network can contribute to greater mobility and more sustainable travel within Europe.

• Rejlers has been given the assigment to assist in the project planning when LKAB invests in a new plant for purifying flue gases in Svappavaara. Rejlers is opening an office in Gällivare in connection with this assignment.

Segment Rejlers Finland (including Russia)^U

Activities in the Finland operating segment are run by the Group companies Rejlers Finland Oy, Rejlers Oy, Elmil Oy, Rejlers Projektit Oy, Insinööritoimisto Lausamo Oy, OOO Lausamo Project and Enerplan Oy. Rejlers has operations in 14 locations in Finland as well as in Moscow and St Petersburg. Rejlers Finland provides consultancy services in the fields of electrical engineering, automation, mechanical engineering, heating, ventilation and sanitation, energy, environmental technology and architecture, as well as turnkey deliveries mainly to major industrial customers, but also to Rejlers' other customer groups: Infrastructure, Construction and property, and Energy. The number of employees at the end of the period was 440 (353).

The market

During the year, the debiting ratio increased to nearly 80 per cent. At the same time, we received signals that the demand for our services in the industrial sector was declining. There continues to be good demand for energy assignments and there is good growth for our services for construction and property. Revenue increased by 27 per cent measured in euros and the number of employees rose by 25 per cent. Several new customer relationships were established during the year.

A fall in demand for the export industry led to a reduction in the order inflow for the engineering consultants. Within the Industry customer group, demand is currently greatest for services for the shipbuilding industry. The order inflow from the plant and mill industry fell over the year, as did assignments relating to mechanical design. Rejlers has been engaged for several assignments for Konecranes, Outotec, Alstom and Cargotec.

The energy sector continues to see a high level of investment and the inflow of orders from our energy customers is higher than it was a year ago. The prospects of growth are good for services within electricity distribution, energy efficiency and energy metering. Demand for our services is particularly strong within renewable energy production and within the oil industry. Demand for wind power assignments is increasing.

Thanks to the government's new infrastructure policy for 2012-2020, there will continue to be good demand for engineering consultancy services in the transport sector. According to the policy, the extension and modernisation of the railways will play an important role in the future. Rejlers has a signed framework agreement with the Finnish Transport Agency.

Rejlers' activities within construction and property are now well-established in Finland and in Russia, where we have a good market situation and a high invoicing ratio. New projects are being planned for the rebuilding and new production of properties with the focus on energy efficiency. Project management has become an increasingly significant part of Rejlers' construction services. Rejlers is strengthening its expertise in HVAC and electrical engineering directed to the construction and property market in Finland by the acquisition of Enerplan Oy in Mikkeli.

Examples of assignments in the fourth quarter and after the end of the period

• The Finnish Transport Agency has engaged Rejlers in connection with the investment being made in renewing the system for remote control of the railway network in southern Finland. Rejlers has been entrusted with the construction management and monitoring of the works to renew the system for remote control of the electrified railway network in southern Finland. Rejlers will act as the safety coordinator.
• TUI Cruises has ordered a new cruise ship, which will be built at the STX yard in Turku. Rejlers has signed a cooperation agreement with STX Europe Finland Oy for the project planning and design of HVAC systems (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning). The assignment also involves complying with the strict environmental requirements and designing energy efficient systems.

Significant risks and uncertainties

There is a certain degree of risk associated with all enterprises. Rejlers' primary business risks consist of reduced demand for consultancy services, difficulties in recruitment and retention of competent personnel, loss of personnel in connection with acquisitions, risks associated with fixed-price assignments and credit risks.

Rejlers' strategy is to have customers in various industries and to work actively to transfer resources following changes in demand, in order to even out fluctuations in demand. Employees are a key asset and Rejlers therefore places significant emphasis on good workplaces, ongoing training and health in order to retain existing staff and as a means of achieving our growth targets. Acquisitions create added value for both the purchasing and acquired companies, which helps limit the risk of losing employees. Rejlers has, for the most part, financially strong customers and the credit risk is considered to be low. The majority of sales and borrowing takes place in local currency, which ultimately results in a very low currency risk. Fixed-price assignments comprise a small part of revenue, but nonetheless constitute a risk. Rejlers therefore has a system for monitoring and following up such assignments in order to minimise the risk of impairments.

The Parent Company pursues, to a minor extent, activities in which the risks are mainly limited to currency and liquidity risks.
