"We expect that the measures carried out last year in the Engineering Services Nordic business area will gradually provide better results in 2015. Results however remain weak in the Engineering Services Germany business area. Further measures have been taken,which initially mean that Q2's results are expected to be negatively affected by around SEK 20 million in restructuring costs.The change of the delivery model and adjustment of the offer in Germany mean that the business area is expected to report weak results throughout 2015.The underlying market in Germany is however strong and the German automotive industry is expected to retain its high demand of development services.
Semcon has after the end of the quarter won a major development contract.We are proud to have once again been selected as an engineering partner for a European premium automotive manufacturer.The development contract is fully in line with Semcon's strategy of being an independent partner with the expertise and capacity to deliver complex automotive projects.This project is another good example of when we successfully use the advantages of Semcon's global infrastructure."

It is mainly the business area, Engineering Services Germany that is reporting a lower result.Work on adapting the offer to the market, started in December 2014, is ongoing,with measures taken that are expected to negatively affect Q2's operating profit by around SEK 20 million in restructuring costs.

Semcon follows the IFRS standards adopted by the EU and its interpretations of these (IFRIC). This quarterly report has been drawn up in accordance with IAS 34. A number of new standards and IFRIC statements were introduced on 1 January 2015. None of these have had any affect on the Group's accounts over the period. In general,the same accounting policies and methods of calculation have been used in this report as in the latest annual report.
Semcon signed a development contract with a European premium automotive manufacturer at the end of April. More than 70 of Semcon's engineers will at most be involved in the development project, which will be carried out at Semcon's offices in Germany, Sweden, India and the UK. The project is expected to run for approximately 18 months and includes interior development for two new car models.
No other significant events occurred after the end of the period.

A change in purchasing patterns, due to legislation, has involved the automotive industry in particular, moving over to buying more projects and packaged services instead of having specialists on customer site. Further measures have been taken to meet customers'expectations,which initially mean that Q2's operating profit is expected to be negatively affected by around SEK 20 million in restructuring costs. The change of the delivery model and adjustment of the offer in Germany means that the business area is expected to report weak result throughout 2015.The underlying market in Germany remains strong however, and the German automotive industry is expected to retain its high demand for development services.
