Hexagon announces new segment reporting


Hexagon AB, a leading global provider of information technologies that drive
productivity and quality across geospatial and industrial enterprise
applications, today announced a new segment reporting structure. As of Q1 2015,
Hexagon will replace the current Measurement Technologies and Other Operations
segments with Geospatial Enterprise Solutions and Industrial Enterprise
Solutions.

The new structure is a result of the divestment of Other Operations and will
also improve the alignment between Hexagon’s financial reporting and operational
strategy.

The Geospatial Enterprise Solutions (GES) segment will consist of businesses
focused on capturing, managing and leveraging geospatial and positioning
information. These are Leica Geosystems, Intergraph SG&I, Hexagon Geospatial,
Hexagon Positioning and Hexagon Mining. Solutions in this segment leverage GIS
(Geographic Information Systems) and mapping software as well as hardware such
as laser instruments, GNSS and airborne imaging sensors to understand and act
upon georeferenced data.

The Industrial Enterprise Solutions (IES) segment will consist of the
manufacturing and engineering focused businesses, Hexagon Metrology and
Intergraph PP&M. It includes engineering software for creating and leveraging
information critical to the planning, construction and operation of plants and
process facilities as well as CAD (computer-aided design) and CAM (computer
-aided manufacturing) manufacturing software and metrology systems that
incorporate the latest in laser and sensor technology for fast and accurate
measurements.

While both segments share a common goal of delivering actionable information,
linking isolated silos of information across entire organisations and supply
networks, each specialises in its own mix of hardware, software and services.

In order to maintain consistency in the financial reporting, Hexagon will
continue to report numbers for the former segment Measurement Technologies
during 2015. Pro forma figures for the new segments for the period 2011 to 2014
can be downloaded in the financial statements
section (http://investors.hexagon.com/en/financial-statements) of the investor
relations page on Hexagon’s website as well as in the most recent investor
presentation. (http://investors.hexagon.com/en/investor-presentations)
