million, which is equivalent to an operating margin of 10.3 per cent. Liquid

flow and a solid balance sheet,” says Lars Stugemo, HiQ’s President and CEO.

During the period HiQ commences on exciting collaborations with key clients such
as Ascom, Cramo, Fintoto, Kuusakoski and Volvo Cars. The connected society is
more and more evident in our surroundings, thanks to the expansion of high-speed
internet and mobile devices. This creates great possibilities for HiQ and for
our clients.

“There is something new happening all the time in our exciting industry. The
connected society is here to stay. With a broad customer base, a strong brand, a
curiosity in new technology and the best consultants in the business, we are
