Securitas creates an Ibero-American division

Luis Miguel Posadas has been appointed Divisional President Security
Services Ibero-America.

Securitas has over the past years successfully built a significant
presence in Latin America, covering six countries with in total
approximately 32,000 employees, annualized sales of close to MSEK 3,000
and a positive profitability trend.

Numerous Spanish and Portuguese large corporations have an extensive
presence in Latin America and vice versa, and the commercial exchange
and coordination between Spain and Portugal, and Latin America is
increasingly important.

Consequently, Securitas has decided to create an Ibero-American division
consisting of its guarding operations in Argentina, Chile, Colombia,
Ecuador, Peru, Portugal, Spain and Uruguay with total sales in 2010 of
approximately MSEK 8,000 and approximately 58,000 employees.

Luis Miguel Posadas, presently Divisional President Latin America, has
been appointed Divisional President Security Services Ibero-America. He
will report to the CEO of Securitas and be a member of Securitas Group
Management.
