COMMENTS BY LARS CORNELIUSSON, CEO AND PRESIDENT:

· The challenging geopolitical situation relating to the turmoil in Ukraine has continued throughout the second quarter and has contributed to a significant slowdown in the overall market for our products in Russia. Despite all of this we still managed to deliver a relatively strong result during the quarter. Compared to the second quarter of 2013, which was very strong, our revenue was down 12% in SEK and only 2% in local currency. Our gross margin was 1.8%-points higher at 17.8%. The improved margin combined with lower selling and general and administrative expenses resulted in a 4% increase in EBITDA to SEK 49m. Net income for the period increased significantly to SEK 14m.

· The overall market during the first five months, based on import statistics, dropped by c. 20% compared to last year. At the same time we only experienced a 7% drop in sales of new units in the first six months. This once again shows that we continue to gain market share, especially in our key product areas.

In view of the turbulent political situation and the uncertain market environment, we are pleased to have been able to maintain almost the same revenue as in the second quarter of 2013, while at the same time increasing our profitability. We take this as a sign that our significant investments in our extensive network and competence development of our personnel continue to bear fruit.

· Going forward, notwithstanding our relatively strong performance throughout the turmoil so far, it is clear that the difficult political and economic situation in Russia most probably will create challenges for our business in the short term. Despite this, however, we are confident that the long term fundamentals in the Russian construction equipment market remain strong.
