Torbjörn Kronander,  
President and CEO 
CEO’S COMMENTS  
A sustainable future is about making our customers successful. I can’t repeat 
this enough. To succeed we must have satisfied customers, which in turn 
requires that we have satisfied employees and a corporate culture that 
encourages engagement and motivation. At Sectra, we are proud that our 
customers time and time again say how satisfied they are with our employees 
and our efforts to make a positive difference in society.  
Our awards for high customer satisfaction and our ranking as one of Sweden’s best employers 
demonstrate that we are achieving our goals of delivering customer value and building a long -
term business. All of our operating areas are growing. Secure Communications is continuing to 
make a more significant contribution to the Group’s profit than in the past and, for the first time, 
exceeded SEK 300 million in sales for the rolling 12 -month period.  We are also in an expansive 
phase in medical imaging IT, with ma jor investments in delivery capacity in parallel with 
transitioning our business to service sales instead of product sales.  
The Group’s profitability for the nine-month period exceeded our target operating margin, even if variations between individual quarters 
still are significant. We will have to live with this for a while yet. The important thing s in the long term are  that we continue to have 
satisfied customers and that we are continuing to grow. During the quarter, we won several new, major contracts, within secur e 
communications and within medical imaging IT, which contributed to contracted order bookings once again surpas sing our previous 
record-breaking levels. Some of these projects could have a major immediate financial impact in a given quarter, even if the contract 
runs for several years. In the long term, we are heading towards a more even allocation across quarters as traditional system deliveries 
are replaced with invoicing of services. However, in the short term, the impact of the growing size of the contracts outweigh ed the 
equalizing effect. 
We have made substantial progress in the shift to selling services, which is clear in our key figures for recurring revenue. Satisfied 
customers also mean that we lose very little recurring revenue, or “churn.” One year ago, we saw that demand for purchasing software 
as a service was growing rapidly, although it varied across different markets. Despite major changes, this is still the case. Europe 
continues to be dominated by traditional license sales, even if service sales are now growing rapidly. In North America, however, almost 
all of our new sales are for Sectra One Cloud, although individual contracts may pertain to deliveries for which part or all of the revenue 
is recognized immediately.  
Transitioning from traditional system deliveries to service sales inevitably lead s to a temporary dampening effect on financial 
performance. For Sectra, the positive currency situation in the first half of the year, in combination with strong underlying growth and 
the fact that not all transactions pertain to subscription services yet, helped mitigate the effects of the transition. Our assessment is that 
this will continue for a couple of years before the positive effects outweigh the negative impact. How fast this happens will  depend 
primarily on how quickly new and existing customers outside North America transition to purchasing services. 
The protracted transition to service sales means that we have decided to continue reporting order bookings. This is a change from our 
previous announcement—that reporting would end after the current fiscal year. Going forward, we will therefore continue to  report 
order bookings as before.   
Healthcare and data security are both areas that are expected to grow for a long time to come, and that are relatively unaffected by the 
economic climate. While our strategic investment in service sales is having a short-term negative impact on our financial outcome and 
growth, it will be beneficial in the long term. Not least because Sectra’s customers are satisfied and stay with us for a lon g time. With 
loyal customers and long-term relationships combined with a strong brand in growing areas, we have every reason to remain optimistic 
about the future.

Continued global success in customer satisfaction 
Sectra was awarded five “Best in KLAS” distinctions for customer satisfaction with the enterprise imaging 
module for radiology,  Sectra PACS. This is now the eleventh consecutive year in the US and the fifth 
consecutive year in Canada that Sectra has been ranked the highest in customer satisfaction. In the new 
categories for Europe, Sectra won in both northern and southern Europe. The “Best in KLAS” awards are 
handed out by the US healthcare IT data and insights company KLAS, which conducts annual customer 
satisfaction surveys for healthcare IT systems.  
 
“Manager in healthcare, November 2023 on the KLAS website, about the radiology module and Sectra: 
“Sectra has a good, solid platform. Sectra is, as my radiologists tell me, the Ferrari of PACS products. Our 
radiologists consider Sectra a high-end solution, and other hospitals agree; that is why they are buying it. The 
one thing I love about Sectra is i ts ease of use. If a user is not a radiologist, they can pretty much use the 
system on their own. That is how easy it is to use. We have Sectra monitoring things, so they are proactive.”  
 
“CMIO in healthcare, October 2023 on the KLAS website, about Sectra: 
“Sectra has a lot of professional knowledge about the processes they support. They have very good people, 
and they have a lot of clinical contacts. The vendor has good discussions with their customers on what we 
should expect to come in the near future and what lies beyond that. Then, the vendor actually delivers on those 
things.”

OPERATIONAL TARGETS AND FINANCIAL GOALS  
Sectra’s overall operational target is to create significant value for its customers. Customers should be so satisfied with t heir 
experience that they remain for a long time, expand their use of our solutions and recommend Sectra to others. Delivering cus tomer 
value is also the Group’s most important sustainability target since our customers’ work to treat patients and increase cyber security 
is essential for functioning societies. 
Customer satisfaction cannot be achieved without satisfied and dedicated employees. Employees who are motivated, understand their 
customers, feel good and are satisfied in their jobs will also increasingly develop new, creative solutions that can further increase the 
value we provide for Sectra’s customers. Operating in markets that are growing, combined with satisfied customers and employe es, 
provides a long-term sound financial performance.  
Sectra has three Group-wide financial goals. Stability and profitability are considered fundamental goals. Once these goals have been 
met, the focus shifts to earnings growth per share, which in practice is our primary financial goal.  All result indicators currently 
exceed the target levels by a comfortable margin despite the effects of changes in the business model.

Sectra ranked among Sweden’s  
best employers  
We retained a high rating among major employers in 
Sweden in Universum’s annual “Sweden’s best employers” 
survey. More than 170 companies participated in the 
survey, in which employees answer questions about how 
satisfied they are with the companies as employers, what 
they think about the company culture and opportunities for 
future career development.  
Our annual internal employee survey shows that Sectra is 
also perceived globally as an equal opportunity workplace 
with satisfied employees and a strong corporate culture.

EVENTS 
Third quarter 
Imaging IT Solutions 
• Sectra signed a ten-year agreement with NHS National Services Scotland, which chose Sectra’s cloud-based services for 
medical imaging. The services will be used across all of Scotland to review and report approximately five million 
radiology examinations per year.  
• Another healthcare provider in the US Midwest ordered Sectra’s enterprise imaging module for radiology. The five-year 
contract pertains to on-site system installation at the customer’s premises, where it will be used to coordinate the 
management of approximately two million images. The contracted order value amounted to USD 15.7 million 
(corresponding to approximately SEK 166 million), of which USD 14.3 million (corresponding approximately SEK 151 
million) is guaranteed order bookings. Sectra’s medical imaging solution will thus be used for the majority of patients in 
the Midwest, which will simplify coordination between healthcare systems in the region.  
• A US network of hospitals and outpatient clinics signed a six-year agreement for Sectra’s cloud-based enterprise imaging 
service to handle increasing imaging volumes and strengthen security. Initially the customer will utilize the module for 
radiology. The contracted and guaranteed order value amounts to USD 20.4 million (corresponding to approximately  
SEK 216 million).  
• GE Healthcare and Sectra announced that the companies are partnering to simplify radiologists’ work through seamless 
integration between Sectra’s diagnostic applications for radiology and GE Healthcare’s applications for advanced 
visualization. 
• Rigshospitalet in Copenhagen deployed Sectra One Cloud. The hospital, which is ranked among the best in the world
1, is 
part of Region Hovedstaden, and the deployment is an important milestone for introducing Sectra’s cloud-based services 
for medical imaging in the entire region.  
• The PACS 2023 Decisions Insights Report from the IT data and insights company KLAS Research highlights Sectra as the 
supplier most often considered in PACS (Picture Archive and Communication Systems) procurements in the US
2. 
According to the report, Sectra was considered in half of healthcare providers’ decisions to purchase PACS and was 
selected as a supplier in 25% of all decisions—significantly more than any other vendor.  
Business Innovation 
• Sectra signed a contract with the University of Saarland, which chose Sectra Education Portal for medical education of 
radiographer students. 
Secure Communications 
• Swedish authorities expanded their partnership with Sectra through orders of systems and solutions for secure 
communication that will improve the ability of Swedish civil and military defense to communicate securely and 
efficiently. The orders pertain to the final development and delivery of a desktop phone with conference call functionality 
and to the delivery of units for Sectra’s system for secure communication, Sectra Tiger/S. The total contracted and 
guaranteed order value amounts to approximately SEK 90 million. 
• EU organizations, including new customers in three EU member states, ordered additional units of Sectra’s approved 
mobile encryption system and extended existing support agreements for the same system. 
After the end of the reporting period 
• Sectra was awarded five “Best in KLAS” distinctions for customer satisfaction with the enterprise imaging module for 
radiology, Sectra PACS. Read more on page 3.

SECTRA’S MARKETS 
Sectra plays a key role in meeting the need for  medical imaging IT and cybersecurity. We help solve major social problems in 
changing markets, where scope for expansion remains. The global trends of an aging population and increased digitization mean that 
these markets are expected to continue to grow even in a weaker economic climate.  
Our customers operate in some of society’s most critical functions, which means that it is important that our brand is associated with 
reliability, trustworthiness and stability. Our job is to help customers become more efficient and give them the tools ne eded to make 
people’s lives healthier, safer and more secure. In line with Sectra’s vision, this is how the company creates value for its customers, 
shareholders and society as a whole.  
IT support for more efficient care and medical education 
Today’s demographic development and increased survival rates among cancer patients are putting pressure on healthcare. The ag ing 
population of the industrialized world entails major challenges. At the same time, the proportion of people of working age is  
decreasing. In order to maintain high quality of care with fewer people in healthcare taking care of more patients, healthcare must 
become more efficient. The growing population of senior citizens is also shining a spotlight on diseases affecting the elderly. The 
diagnosis and treatment of patients with cancer and skeletal diseases, for example, entails enormous challenges. These diseas es 
represent some of the most costly and resource -intensive areas in the healthcare sector and are dependent on medical diag nostic 
imaging. Healthcare providers across the globe use Sectra’s expertise and solutions in medical imaging IT not only to increas e 
productivity and coordinate their resources but also to improve efficiency in orthopaedic surgery through better planning and follow-
up. The number of clinical DNA sequencings carried out during pathology examinations is increasing very rapidly. IT support f or 
genomics is a market that Sectra is now entering through partnerships with customers in the US and Sweden. Sectra als o helps to 
raise the quality of medical education by providing solutions where the user can interact with medical images and share educa tional 
materials. We are also seeing increasing synergies between our operating areas since healthcare is increasingly subject to cybercrime, 
resulting in, for example, the authorities in the US issuing a particular warning to healthcare providers.  
We enable our customers to take care of more patients and save more lives at a long -term sustainable cost. This work is carried out 
in our Imaging IT Solutions and Business Innovation operating areas. 
Cybersecurity for a more stable and safer society 
The ability to safely and efficiently handle and transmit sensitive information is central to the stability and security of s ociety, 
particularly when it comes to critical social functions and critical infrastructure. As digitization increases, the players  in these areas 
have a major need for products and services that increase cybersecurity. Sectra has extensive experience of protecting society’s most 
critical communications and control systems and we are a strong brand in the niche markets of encryption a nd secure mobile 
communications. IT developments in society, political instability in the world, and the growth of cybercrime are creating a greater 
need for Sectra’s expertise and product offerings.  
We help customers to provide increased security, thereby contributing to a more stable and safer society. This work is carried out in 
the Secure Communications operating area.  
COMMENTS ON THE GROUP’S FINANCIAL OUTCOME 
Order bookings 
Demand for the company’s customer offerings in both medical imaging IT and 
secure communication contributed to the increase in contracted order bookings. 
Total contracted order bookings rose 54.4% to SEK 5,326.5 million (3,448.8), 
of which SEK 1,853.6 million (549.2) pertained to the third quarter. A total of 
SEK 2,457.0 million (1,795.0) was guaranteed order bookings, of which SEK 
1,652.5 million (484.0) pertained to the third quarter. The ratio of contracted 
order bookings to net sales for the latest rolling 12-month period totaled 2.3, up 
from 2.0 at the end of the previous fiscal year.  
Order bookings include comprehensive, long- term customer contracts, for 
example for managing large volumes of medical images. The most compre-
hensive customer contract for the current fiscal year is a Sectra One Cloud 
contract with a major healthcare provider in the US. If the full term of the 
contract (which extends until 2033) is realized, the order value will amount 
to approximately SEK 2.4 billion (USD 227 million), of which no part is 
guaranteed. Orders of this size are not secured every quarter and th erefore 
lead to significant variations in order bookings between individual quarters 
and periods. 
Contracted order bookings, SEK million

Net sales and recurring revenue 
All operating areas continued to grow and the Group’s net sales for the nine -month period rose 27.0% to SEK 2,065.5 million 
(1,626.0), of which SEK 694.0 million (580.3) pertained to the third quarter. Based on unadjusted exchange rates, consolidated sales 
increased 23.9% compared with the nine-month period in the previous fiscal year.  
The ongoing transition to selling products and software as services, of which cloud deliveries account for a quickly growing share, 
contributed to an increase in recurring revenue.  SEK 1,261.5 million (983.3) of sales pertained to recurring revenue, of which SEK 
434.7 million (356.4) pertained to the third quarter. This represents an increase of 28.3% compared with the nine-month period in the 
previous fiscal year and an increase of 25.1% based on unchanged exchange rates. Lost recurring revenue (recurring revenue churn) 
for the last 12-month period was 0.4%. CRR for the nine-month period rose 55.8% to SEK 283.1 million (181.7), of which SEK 103.2 
million (72.1) pertained to the third quarter. Non-recurring revenue also performed well during the period and rose 25.1% to SEK 
804.0 million (642.7), of which SEK 259.3 million (223.9) pertained to the third quarter. 
Sectra grew in all geographic markets. The operations in the UK reported the largest individual sales increase from the comparative 
period, of which more than half pertained to recurring revenue. More than 70% of the Group’s sales are carried out in foreign currency, 
primarily EUR, GBP and USD, which entails a relatively large sensitivity to currency fluctuations.

Result 
The Group’s operating profit increased 23.8% to SEK 320.4 million (258.9), of which SEK 74.4 million (87.0) pertained to the third 
quarter. Based on unadjusted exchange rates, operating profit increased 17.8% compared with the nine-month period in the preceding 
year. The positive operating profit trend for the nine -month period is a result of sales growth in all operating areas in combination 
with favorable currency movements and Secure Communications’ increased contribution to the Group’s profit. The comprehensive 
initiative within Imaging IT Solutions to transition to service sales and cloud deliveries had an impact on operating profit for the 
quarter. Currency movements were favorable in the period and continued to mitigate the effects of the Group’s ongoing investments 
in the period, but had the opposite effect during the third quarter. The Group’s operating margin was 15.5% (15.9) for the nine-month 
period. 
The Group’s financial items amounted to SEK 20.3 million (18.6), of which SEK -1.5 million (4.1) pertained to the third quarter. The 
improvement in financial items for the period was primarily due to increased interest income, while the outcome for the quarter was 
mainly related to currency headwinds. Currency fluctuations had an adverse impact of SEK 2.0 million (pos: 13.2) on financial items 
for the period. Sectra does not hedge its operations, and currency fluctuations therefore have an immediate impact on profit or loss or 
on comprehensive income. Profit after financial items amounted to SEK 340.7 million (277.5), of which SEK 72.9 million (91.1) 
pertained to the third quarter. This outcome corresponds to a profit margin of 16.5% (17.1) for the nine -month period and 10.5% 
(15.7) for the third quarter. Earnings per share before and after dilution totaled SEK 1.40 (1.14) for the period, of which SEK 0.30 
(0.38) pertained to the third quarter.  
F
inancial position and cash flow 
The Group’s cash and cash equivalents at the end of the reporting period amounted 
to SEK 688.8 million (482.5). The short -term investment of SEK 120 million made 
during the comparative period was repaid in the second quarter. 
The Group’s debt/equity ratio was 0.02 (0.07) as of the balance -sheet date. Interest-
bearing lease liabilities amounted to SEK 24.3 million (80.4). The change is 
primarily due to the termination of the lease for Sectra’s head office in conjunction 
with the acquisition  of the property. Refer to the additional information under the 
heading “Investments and depreciation/amortization” on the next page. 
Cash flow from operations amounted to SEK 192.6 million (58.3) for the period, of 
which SEK 233.2 million (83.6) was attributable to the third quarter. The change 
from the comparative period is due to advance invoicing and reduced outflows 
related to non-current liabilities. Cash flow per share amounted to SEK 1.00 (0.30), 
of which SEK 1.21 (0.43) pertained to the third quarter. 
Cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK - 107.3 million ( -188.1), of 
which SEK - 30.8 million ( -22.8) was attributable to the third quarter. Refer to the

The Group’s total cash flow for the period amounted to SEK -136.9 million (-340.6). 
This includes a transfer of SEK 211.9 million to the shareholders through Sectra’s 
2023 share redemption program, refer to page 13. The equivalent disbursement in 
the comparative period was SEK 192.7 million. 
Investments and depreciation/amortization 
Investments for the period amounted to SEK 227.3 million (188.1), of which SEK 
30.8 million (22.8) was attributable to the third quarter. The outcome for the period 
includes SEK 144.6 million (0) for the acquisition of two properties. The acquisition 
is not expected to have a significant effect on the Sectra Group’s financial position. 
The short-term investment of SEK 120 million made during the comparative period 
was repaid in the second quarter. 
Capitalized work for own use amounted to SEK 55.2 million (35.1), of which SEK 
19.3 million (14.7) pertained to the third quarter. Capitalization, which includes the 
development of cloud- based services for medical diagnostics, increased from the 
comparative period in all operating areas.  
Total depreciation and amortization for the period was SEK 72.9 million (67.7), of 
which the third quarter accounted for SEK 24.7 million (23.3). SEK 28.9 million 
(26.0) of the period’s outcome pertained to capitalized development expenditures, of 
which SEK 10.4 million (8.8) was attributable to the third quarter. At the end of the 
period, capitalized development expenditures totaled SEK 197.6 million (158.9).  
S
easonal variations 
Sectra has historically experienced major seasonal variations, since individual 
projects can be very large relative to Sectra’s sales. This applies for both medical 
systems and encryption systems. The beginning of the fiscal year is usually weaker 
since few customers want to deploy new systems during the summer. The variations 
in order volumes between individual quarters are significant since certain contracts 
are very large and have long terms. As Sectra transitions to selling products as a 
service, this variation is expected to gradually decrease over the next several years 
since revenue will be spread more evenly over time. For further information about 
seasonal patterns, refer to Sectra’s Annual and Sustainability Report for the 
2022/2023 fiscal year.

maging IT Solutions continues to win comprehensive contracts where traditional 
solutions are replaced with cloud services, including a contract with NHS in Scotland 
in the third quarter. The single largest order during the fiscal year was for Sectra One 
Cloud from a healthcare provider in the US, with a contracted order value of approxi -
mately SEK 2.4 billion. These orders contributed to contracted order bookings for the 
nine-month period exceeding previous top levels.  
The business area’s operations are in a strong growth phase and the financial outcomes 
are impacted by ongoing investments. The earnings trend for the nine-month period as 
a whole was positive, although considerable fluctuations between quarters remain. The 
deployment of services and infrastructure at new major customers initially entails 
increased costs. Revenue then grows gradually as customers put systems into 
operation, but it can take several years for major customers to become fully operational 
and reach planned volumes. To date, the growth in sales, in combination with favorable 
currency movements, has partially offset the effects of the transition to service sales 
and cloud-based deliveries.  
The long- term trend is positive. Recurring revenue is increasing and revenue from 
cloud services is growing the fastest. The outcomes for the business area show how 
the ongoing transition from traditional software deliveries to services and cloud 
deliveries is progressing. Sectra was early to convert its operations and currently offers 
medical imaging IT as a subscription service with deliveries in public or private clouds, 
Sectra One Cloud.  During the nine -month period, several customers deployed the 
service, including customers in Canada, the UK and the US. These customers are 
among the first in each country to use Sectra One Cloud. One of the cloud installations 
was also the first through Sectra’s partner organization, where Sectra One Cloud offers 
improved prospects to expand operations. In the US, where we first introduced Sectra 
One, as well as in Canada, essentially all new customer sales are for subscription-based 
services. However, some customers are still choosing traditional system installations 
instead of cloud services.  
Trend, SEK million 
How does Sectra have such satisfied and loyal customers? 
“Our dominance in customer satisfaction surveys like Best in KLAS shows how 
fantastic our employees are. They do what it takes to solve our customers’ problems—
no matter what. Over the last year, we have restructured and grouped our organization 
internally to better support our customers through the entire process, everything from 
their initial choice of us t o implementation and support. This, in combination with 
products that reduce IT costs and improve security and that can be scaled according 
to customer needs, lays the groundwork for our success.”

Business Innovation comprises the Genomics IT, Medical Education and 
Orthopaedics business units. Genomics IT does not yet have any sales, since it is in 
a development phase with initial deliveries planned for the spring of 2024. We also 
report the expense s for medical research activities in Business Innovation, which 
includes initiatives in the field of AI for medical applications.  
Recurring revenue is growing quickly, and the financial outcome in terms of sales and 
operating profit showed a positive trend compared with the comparative period. 
However, the results may vary significantly between quarters and periods. 
Subscription-based business models and growing volumes will generate higher 
recurring revenue, resulting in less variation in the long term.

Medical education portal supports recruitment of 
radiologists 
Not only does Sectra’s education portal modernize medical 
education—it is also useful in recruitment. Telemedicine Clinic 
(TMC) is one of the leading telemedicine companies in Europe and 
helps more than 150 hospitals in Denmark, the UK and Sweden 
review medical images and report the results all hours of the day. 
The company has been using Sectra Education Portal in its 
recruitment strategy for little over a year. The customer uses 
Sectra’s cloud-based education portal as a step in the recruitment 
process to ensure the quality of the radiologists that they hire. The 
candidates are assessed based on their expertise and specializa -
tion by analyzing and reporting on patient cases presented in the 
portal. The number of cases varies based on the position, and all 
tests are designed by TMC’s radiologists.

The uncertain geopolitical situation, with an ongoing war in Europe and further tensions 
worldwide, continues to highlight the importance of defense capabilities and public 
security. This, in turn, is placing greater demands on communication and fueling the need 
for investments in high assurance products, encryption development and cybersecurity 
both in Sweden and in the rest of Europe.  
Secure Communications’ operations form part of Sweden’s collective national capability 
within crypto—a capability classified as an essential security interest. Sectra’s ability to 
help customers has led to strong order bookings and sales growth. The positive trend 
during the first half of the year continued during the third quarter. Operating profit trended 
in the right direction and contributed to the Group’s overall financial goals  to a larger 
extent than previously. The long-term trend is positive, although outcomes can naturally 
vary greatly between quarters due to the nature of the operations. 
Order bookings during the fiscal year include development assignments and product sales 
as well as support and service commitments. During the third quarter, Sectra received 
orders for development assignments primarily from customers in Sweden and international 
orders for communication infrastructure from both existing and new customers. Customers 
also extended agreements for deployment and support of secure communications, 
including security monitoring for critical infrastru cture. The growing demand for our 
offerings has the potential to contribute to the future development of operations. At the 
same time, certain challenges connected to the global political situation remain, which are 
affecting component supplies and sales chains and, to a certain extent, resulting in a 
strained local labor market. 
Budget appropriations for cybersecurity for the defense forces, authorities and critical 
infrastructure have increased, and we are well positioned with offerings that meet 
customers’ stringent demands. To meet increased needs and new regulations, during the 
last few years we have made extensive investments in our development environment, 
which is already approved and operational. Ongoing initiatives also include new offerings 
with the potential to contribute to substantial customer value and growth in all p roduct 
segments. These include several initiatives to supplement our established position within 
the highest levels of assurance with products and offerings for a wider customer base, 
primarily within government authorities.
 
Development of new Tiger product 
Sectra plays an important role in the Swedish civil and 
military defense’s ability to share information. During 
the quarter, Swedish authorit ies placed an order for 
the development and launch of a new communication 
solution in the form of a desktop phone. The solution 
is part of the Tiger/S product family, which protects 
classified information up to and including the 
classification level SECRET. The new product will 
allow multiple people to participate in a secure 
conference call, thereby further contributing to efficient 
collaboration within and between Swedish authorities.

AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT 
Introduction 
We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information for Sectra AB (publ) at January 31, 2024 and for the nine -month 
period ended on that date. The Board of Directors and the President are responsible for the preparation of this interim repor t in 
accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the interim financi al 
information based on our review.  
F
ocus and scope of the review 
We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, Review of Interim 
Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons 
responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review has a different 
direction and is substantially more limited in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditi ng 
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 signific ant 
matters that might be identified in an audit. Therefore, the opinion expressed on the basis of a review does not provide the same level 
of assurance as an opinion expressed on the basis of an audit.  
O
pinion 
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report has not, in all material aspects, 
been compiled for the Group in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Reporting and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and for the Parent 
Company, in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act.

Note 5 Financial definitions and alternative performance measures 
The Group applies the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) Guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures. Alternative 
performance measures are applied since the company believes they provide valuable supplementary information for management and 
investors given that they play a central role when it comes to understanding and evaluating the Group’s operations.

Recurring revenue mainly refers to revenue from subscription, support and maintenance agreements. The share delivered via the cloud is 
reported as cloud recurring revenue (CRR). Revenue from system implementations, migration and one- time purchases of licenses are not 
recognized as recurring revenue. 
Calculation 
Recurring revenue divided by total external sales. Refer to the table on page 21.
