For us, this has resulted in more new orders and higher rates. Prevas has entered into a growth phase having established new offices in Gävle, Borlänge and Oslo. The Product Development and Industrial Systems business areas are also in a phase of organic growth. Evidence of Prevas' strong delivery performance can be found in our customer satisfaction rating of 8.4 (on a scale of 1 to 10) and delivery reliability for projects of 96 percent. We are very happy that Prevas was nominated for the Swedish Embedded Award for the third year in a row. Together with its customer, Zenicor Medical Systems, Prevas has developed a hand-held ECG unit that was nominated in the category, Enterprise. Our Swedish and Norwegian operations continue to report stable profitability. In Norway, we are making new investments in the Product Development business area. In Denmark, efforts continue to establish existing and new businesses, along with restructuring efforts. This has involved costs that are essential to our future growth strategy. Overall, we have noticed that our customers are optimistic and we are confident that there is a strong and growing market for our services. Nevertheless, for 2010 overall, what we previously communicated still holds true, i.e. this will be a year of squeezed margins.

Together with Zenicor Medical Systems, Prevas competed against four other companies in the category “Enterprise” for this prestigious prize. Prevas and Interspiro won the award in 2009 for an advanced communication system for smoke diving teams. New operations in Norway within the area of product development Prevas is continuing to invest and is starting new product development activities in Norway. Prevas has been established in Norway since 2007 with offerings within industrial IT. When industrial companies are looking for manufacturing-related IT solutions, Prevas is a natural partner. The investment has been very successful, and Prevas recognizes major possibilities for expansion within the Product Development business area in Norway, with Oslo as the base. Operations will consist of 4-5 employees from the start, with the aim of growing to 30 employees within a 3-year period. Recruitment of key individuals for the initiative is complete, and Eivind Eriksen has been recruited to serve as the team leader. Eriksen most recently worked at Teknologisk Institutt where he was a group leader for electronics and instrumentation. The investment in Norway is an important and strategic step. In this area, Prevas is able to offer new services to its existing customers, as well as reaching out to a new market. Interim Report January - September 2010 page 4 (12) Prevas develops intelligence in products and industrial systems. Examples of exciting project commitments Prevas, in cooperation with National Instruments, has helped the Gothenburg-based company Medfield Diagnostics to develop the Strokefinder R10 measurement system. The Strokefinder R10 is a research instrument that can help save many lives and prevent a lot of suffering for future stroke victims. The product consists of measurement equipment and a helmet that is put on the patient and used to examine the brain with the help of microwaves. There are antennas in the helmet that, together with the measurement equipment, act as transmitters and receivers. Consultants working with embedded electronics face challenges associated with the environment. Since Prevas provides solutions and services within many sectors and application areas, we are thus involved in many types of greentech projects. It is possible to use some solutions in a general context. Most, however, are customerspecific. Examples vary from updates to existing products such that they become more environmentally friendly, to getting involved in greentech projects. General agreements In order to assist customers in the best manner possible, Prevas invests in long-term customer relationships that include deep insight into customers’ enterprises. General agreements important for continued cooperation have been signed with such companies as: ABB, Atlas Copco, Ericsson, FMV, GE Healthcare, Maquet, Saab AB, Sandvik and Volvo. Market trends and events within the business areas Recovery in the area of industrial IT continued during Q3 - Industrial Systems business area Recovery in the market for industrial IT, which got underway during the second quarter, also continued during the third quarter. The willingness to invest is increasing across the entire line and projects that had been put on hold have been dusted off and are being considered once again. The focus is on how to increase productivity with current staffing. We are also getting more and more inquiries on how to modernize equipment. Operating margin for the Industrial Systems business area remains strong. Capacity utilization is high and expansion is now on the agenda. We need to recruit more employees to several of Prevas' regions. New orders continue to increase and the newly established unit in Gävle has gotten off to a good start. Our assessment continues to be quite positive in terms of the market outlook for investments in manufacturing-related IT solutions, industrial IT. Customers want to already have efficient internal IT processes that are linked to production in place, once a recovery gets underway. Manufacturing Enterprise Solutions (MES) and Business Intelligence (BI) are two areas that are developing quite well. The driving factors for investments are the customer's own productivity in combination with their demands for traceability and quality assurance. In certain sectors, requirements from authorities must also be considered, e.g. product traceability in manufacturing. Energy savings is another area where there is increased interest from customers. Prevas works with several world-leading companies, such as ABB, Ericsson, Outokumpu, Sandvik, SSAB, Statoil and Volvo. Nordic Leader in Embedded Systems - Product Development business area The Product Development business area has continued to experience increased demand for its services during the last quarter. Customers' greatest needs continue to be for on-site consulting. However, new orders and inquiries have increased significantly, particularly regarding outsourcing of product development for both complete products and subsystems. Operating margin has gradually improved during the year. In September, it was at a satisfactory level for Swedish operations within the Product Development business area. In Denmark, the situation continues to be difficult and anticipated bad debt losses have a negative impact on profits. For the third year in a row, Prevas has been nominated for the Swedish Embedded Award. This year, Prevas was nominated along with its customer, Zenicor Medical Systems. Prevas has developed Zenicor's new, innovative product, Zenicor ECG-2. It is a unique product that can be used in a home environment to easily diagnose heart rhythm disturbances. Interim Report January - September 2010 page 5 (12) Prevas develops intelligence in products and industrial systems. During the period, Medfield Diagnostics, a Prevas customer, launched its new product, Strokefinder R10. Prevas was involved in developing the product in close cooperation with the strategic partner, National Instruments. Strokefinder R10 is an instrument that is used for diagnosis of stroke patients. This groundbreaking system received a great deal of attention as Key-Note at the annual NI-Week in Austin, Texas. Prevas works with many world-leading companies, such as ABB, Atlas Copco, Bombardier, Danfoss, Ericsson, Maquet Critical Care, Novo Nordisk, Saab, Vestas and Volvo. The Parent Company JANUARY – SEPTEMBER Sales were SEK 308.6 (320.6) million and profit/loss after financial items was SEK 5.1 (-3.3) million. Risks and uncertainties The market situation improved during the period and we have noticed that things are stabilizing. However, VC-funded companies are still experiencing the aftermath of the recession. Prevas relies on certain guiding principles when it comes to managing risks in various parts of its business. Successful risk management is a continuous process conducted within the framework for operations management. It is an integral part of the everyday follow-up of the business. Examples of business and market related risks are: competition and downward pressure on prices, how our customers' businesses develop, bad debt losses, risks associated with the state of the market and fluctuations in exchange/interest rates. During the period, Prevas increased its provision for anticipated bad debt losses. Accounting principles This summary interim report for the Group was prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting and the Annual Accounts Act, where applicable. The interim report for the Parent Company was prepared in accordance with Chapter 9, Interim Report, of the Annual Accounts Act. The revised accounting standards that affect Prevas as of 2010 are as follows: IFRS 3, Business Combinations and IAS 27, Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements. The revisions result in changes to how transaction costs are reported in conjunction with acquisitions as well as the revaluation of additional consideration reported in net profit/loss for the year. These changes only have an effect going forward. As of 2010, there are holdings without controlling influence. The revised IAS 27 has an effect on what certain things are called, but no effect on the amounts reported in this report. Except for the changes mentioned above, the company has applied the same accounting principles and bases of calculation as in the most recent Annual Report.

Auditor's Report Regarding Review of the Interim Report To the Board of Directors of Prevas AB (publ.), CIN: 556252-1384 Introduction We have conducted a review of the summary financial information for Prevas AB (publ.) as of 30 September 2010 and the nine-month period ending on that date. The Board of Directors and CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this interim report that is based upon our review. Focus and scope of the review We conducted our review in accordance with the Swedish Standard on Review Engagements SÖG 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity," issued by FAR. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially more limited in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing in Sweden, RS, and other generally accepted auditing practices. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain a level of assurance that would make us aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion expressed based on a review does not give the same level of assurance as a conclusion based on an audit. Conclusion Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim financial information does not, in all material respects, accord with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act for the Group, and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act for the Parent Company.
