I have huge respect for the challenge it is to take over the management of a company I care so much for, and which I have been a part of since 1997. I am looking forward to continuing the company’s successful journey and would like to share with you my thoughts on 2013 and the future. Going into 2013, economists were positive about GDP growth within our region, and IT market analysts on this basis expected positive market conditions. GDP and IT market expectations were gradually lowered throughout the year. The challenging market conditions from 2012 therefore continued and throughout the year Atea experienced a reluctance to invest and prolonged sales processes with the customers. The market bounced back somewhat in the last part of the year. The challenging market conditions were combined with a transition within both the client and the datacenter environment. The year saw the largest decline in the history of the PC according to a Gartner report. On the other hand, we noticed an increasing demand for mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets. The important thing for Atea is, however, not whether we are Steinar Sønsteby delivering a PC or mobile device, but that we are capable of CEO delivering what our customers require.

You have changes within our organization, but, on the other hand, we are to grow revenue to improve your financial results. Gaining market seeing an increased demand for our private cloud and hybrid cloud share also means that we grow in importance to our vendors, who services and solutions. This is another example of an area where then in turn will invest more in their cooperation with us. we have adapted our deliveries to our customers changed require- ments due to technological changes during 2013. From a shareholder perspective, 2013 was a good year. As a consequence of Atea's strong cash flow and deleveraged balance In the future, we will continue to develop solutions, increase compe- needs in a more efficient manner and to improve profitability go- sheet, an extraordinary dividend of NOK 4.00 was distributed in tencies and focus on the segments where we believe the market ing forward.

In order to create room for investments within these out in May, this yields a total cash return of 16 per cent, based on areas and to drive profitable growth, we launched a programme to I am glad to report that we, despite the challenging market conditions the share price at the end of 2012. enhance our operational efficiency in October. The operational and technological transition, returned to positive growth rates efficiency program is two-sided. The first part was a cost reduction for both revenue and EBITDA in the third and the fourth quarter. We enter 2014 in a robust financial position with expectations of a programme, which lowered the September 2013 run-rate cost base To me this is proof of Atea's ability to adapt the business to the somewhat improved market environment. In combination with the by NOK 200 million through a reduction of the number of employees changes in customer requirements, market conditions or techno- operational efficiency programme, this will give us growth in both by approximately 350. The second part of the programme focuses logical shifts. Obviously, such setbacks in the macro environment revenue and earnings in the coming years. I am therefore certain on moving back office functions to our shared service operations will have a negative impact on our business in the short term, that Atea will continue to be “The Place to Be” for employees, centre in Riga, Latvia. The aim is to enhance quality, strengthen as it has had numerous times before, but due to our relevance to customers, vendors and shareholders. our competitive edge and lower the yearly costs by approximately customers and our ability to adapt, we today hold the position as NOK 100 million when fully implemented in 2016.
