    Torbjörn Kronander, President and CEO of Sectra AB.
    Financially, our underlying operating profit trend was positive for the nine-month period, although the outcome did not surpass the figures for the comparative period, which included significant positive non-recurring effects from a patent settlement. The outcome for this year was also negatively impacted by exchange-rate movements and delays in product deliveries in Secure Communications. As previously communicated, these delays are expected to have a relatively powerful impact on the financial outcome of the security operations for the remainder of the fiscal year. We do not expect these effects to subside until next year.
    Torbjörn Kronander, President and CEO of Sectra AB.

    Several customers who signed comprehensive service contracts during the previous fiscal year have now entered the pilot phase. The focus is on optimizing services before major deployments. We expect to gradually increase the volumes from these contracts in the coming years. However, it is important to note that implementing these large projects will entail major increased costs, including costs for cloud computing, until our revenue starts to gain momentum after a quarter or two. This will have a negative impact on the rest of the fiscal year.
    Torbjörn Kronander, President and CEO of Sectra AB.
    We are also experiencing product delivery delays in Secure Communications that will have a negative impact on the full year. Long development cycles and approval processes for encryption solutions as well as changing threat scenarios may have such effects. In the case of Secure Communications, these effects—which have been quite substantial—will continue for the rest of the fiscal year and are not expected to subside until next year. Otherwise this operating area has a strong positive trend, and we believe that the global security situation will continue to drive demand for products and services that can strengthen information security in society.
    Torbjörn Kronander, President and CEO of Sectra AB.
    The transition to selling cloud-based services is an investment in the future that requires persistence and a long-term focus. While this investment is putting pressure on our short-term financial performance, we are building a stronger and more resilient Sectra in the long term.
