The overarching aim is to maintain a high growth rate and gradually raise the margin in line with our long-term target. The limited awareness of communication aids among prescribers and potential users presents a huge opportunity for us to expand our business over the long term and thereby make a difference to a growing share of individuals diagnosed with communication challenges each year.

COMMENTS FROM THE CEO

Our robust revenue growth sustains. We continue to invest in our marketing and sales capabilities along with investments to improve scalability. The overarching aim is to maintain a high growth rate and gradually raise the margin in line with our long-term target. The limited awareness of communication aids among prescribers and potential users presents a huge opportunity for us to expand our business over the long term and thereby make a difference to a growing share of individuals diagnosed with communication challenges each year.

Sales growth was 28 percent compared to the same period last year. We continue to see solid growth across all geographies and user groups while users who need symbol-based communication and our software TD Snap, often children or young people with autism diagnoses, show a stronger growth trend than other diagnoses.

We continue to invest in further increasing the scalability of our operations, and we are confi-dent that growth and economies of scale will gradually raise the EBIT margin toward our long-term goal of achieving and exceeding 15 percent on an annual basis. In the quarter, our operating profit and earnings per share rose about 50% compared to the same period last year. Continued rising demand and high and stable gross margins are the foundations of continued margin expansion. The investments in new systems and resources, which in many cases are transitory in nature over 1-2 years are substantial, hence the underlying profitability is somewhat stronger than indicated by current results. As we continue to invest in our marketing and sales organization, we expect that total operating expenses will rise at a slower pace than revenue moving forward. The EBIT margin will increase as a result.

Product shipments continue to run efficiently through our three established delivery centers in Asia, Europe, and the US. Through them we cover the 65 countries where we sell either directly or through reseller partners. The availability of components remains solid, while we continue to maintain ample buffers to secure our ability to deliver to customers.

Acquisitions are an important part of our growth ambitions. Business logic and synergies are key when we evaluate potential candidates. The integration of last fall's acquisition, our long-term German supplier, Rehadapt, has been successful. The company both complements our offering and strengthens our market position in Germany.

There are a number of factors driving our growth and increasing profitability. The synergy of our robust product offering and committed employees, coupled with a market in its early phases with minimal penetration, points to high long-term potential. The majority of people who need communication aids do not know or are never presented with the solutions that we and our industry peers offer. In light of the low market penetration and our strong position, I remain confident about the coming year and the longer term.

Fredrik Ruben, CEO
