temporary staffing and permanent placement, including the Swedish University of
Agricultural Sciences, Ovako Steel, Tekniska Verken, Mercedes Benz and the
Municipality of Sollentuna. Our information letter, which is sent to 35,000
managers every month, has a good response rate and generates many good client
enquiries.

The integration of the acquired company Joblink Norden AB is underway and
progressing according to plan. The full effects will be achieved from the first
quarter of 2016.

Investments in infrastructure and skills development continue. We are currently
conducting a management training programme for all managers in the Company.
These initiatives will improve Poolia's competitiveness.

Our focus on growing companies with ambitious managers is a strategy that is
beginning to prove successful. Poolia's business supports the development of
society by making it easier for managers to ensure they find the best employees
for both the assignment and the culture – in the short and long term.

Poolia's long-term goals and strategies stand firm. We have a high energy level
in the Company and have great confidence as we face the future.
