STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We have an exciting, intensive and gratifying year behind us. Exciting because we see new
services introduced and 3G roll out. Intensive because we continued to reduce costs and increase revenues. Gratifying because we are through restructuring, we are showing profit and can turn our energy forward. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Despite the crisis we have gone through we have strengthened our leadership position within
the telecom industry. We have taken market share within all of our important areas. We are the leading player in both GSM and the 3G-technology WCDMA with over 30 and 40 percent market share respectively. We continue to grow within the other
3G-technology called CDMA2000 that was developed in the USA. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We are the leader
in mobile services. And no competitor can come close to our ability to design, build and optimize networks. Therefore as Ericsson&#146;s leader, I am proud today and I am grateful. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I would like to give a big thank-you to all of my 50,000 colleagues within Ericsson. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Without your professionalism and perseverance we would not have managed this. Every time I
leave a meeting with staff, whether it is in Atlanta, Moscow, New Delhi or at Torshamnsgatan in Kista, I&#146;m filled with the same thought &#150; this company is filled with commitment, competence and determination. Thank you for many years of
loyal and target-oriented work! </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Let me now look back on the year that has
passed. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The first thing I would like to point out is of course our successful
cost-savings. There has never been such comprehensive restructuring in Swedish industry. The foundation for this achievement was laid by my predecessor Kurt Hellstr&ouml;m, and driven by our chief operating officer Per-Arne Sandstr&ouml;m.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">When we began the cost-saving effort in 2001 our annual expenses were SEK 88
billion. At year-end our expenses were SEK 37 billion. We have saved more than SEK 50 billion. Or SEK one-half billion per week for 100 weeks. This was made possible by consistently following a clear strategy. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">When Kurt and Per-Arne began the headcount reductions it was already clear what had to be
done. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Firstly, we knew that we must build on our technical leadership.
One-third of our employees work within research and development and today we have over 12,000 patents. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Secondly, we knew that our competitive edge has historically been our global presence. In 1881 we began our business in Russia, in 1892 we sold telecommunications equipment in Shanghai and Calcutta, and in 1903 we
began manufacturing in Mexico. Today we are in over 140 countries. We haven&#146;t changed this. </FONT></P>

<p Style='page-break-before:always'>
<HR  SIZE="3" COLOR="#999999" WIDTH="100%" ALIGN="CENTER">
 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Thirdly, our absolute strength is our strong and close customer relationships. 18 of the world&#146;s 20 largest
operators are our customers. 40 percent of all mobile phone calls in the world are connected via our systems. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">During the headcount reductions we have systematically taken one area at a time. We have not allowed ourselves to be stressed or do things out of order. Therefore I want to address a special thank you to Kurt and
Per-Arne. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Kurt retired at the end of last year and now Per-Arne has decided to
retire and leave the company this summer. A great thank you to you both for your contributions and your perseverance and commitment in saving Ericsson. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Dear shareholders, one year ago I stood here and described our priorities. We would reach profit again regardless of whether the market continued to decline. We have done
it. And we exceeded expectations with a profit margin of 41.6 percent in the fourth quarter. And we will continue to work with our costs, our effectiveness and our margins. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Furthermore we had to ensure our financial strength. We reached a cash flow last year of nearly SEK 20 billion, and today we are debt-free
with net cash of SEK 27 billion. We can proudly say that everyone in Ericsson was part of this historic effort. We have transformed the company. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Simultaneously we have rolled out advanced technology and new services to our customers. And we are, and have always been, the driving force in our industry. Thanks to
the recent years&#146; restructuring we have a solid base to stand on. We are well equipped. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">But we cannot be satisfied with this. We continue with cost-effectiveness and control. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">At this stage we have also taken the opportunity to review our control systems, our ways of working and our core values. A concrete example is the Code of Conduct, which
we have distributed to you today. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In this document we have assembled our core
values and principles for business ethics and how we act in society. Let me continue with a few more words on cost-effectiveness. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">You have most likely noticed that there is much discussion about price pressure in the telecom industry. But price pressure is nothing new. We have lived with it for
quite some time. And it is not worse than in any other competitive industry. But to be the most profitable, one must also be the most cost-effective. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">A cost-effective company will never experience price pressure as anything negative. We continue therefore to work more simply and effectively. No company should be able
to beat us when it comes to cost-effectiveness. Managers have a great responsibility to drive this effort. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our managers are appointed for what they will do, not for what they have done. To create simplicity means that we also review our entire supply chain. From how we buy a microchip to how we install services that make
it possible to send images over the telephone. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Another example is that we are
reducing the number of technical platforms we use. The leading 3G-technologies in the world today are WCDMA and CDMA2000. We are the only company in the world that can handle both technologies. And now we are building both solutions on the same
platform. With that we will have a great operational advantage that no other system vendor can match. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I know that there are many employees sitting here today. And many former employees who were forced to leave the company. I know you wonder if what I described implies more lay-offs in Sweden. But I can now state that
we have most of this behind us and only a few minor adjustments remain. </FONT></P>

<p Style='page-break-before:always'>
<HR  SIZE="3" COLOR="#999999" WIDTH="100%" ALIGN="CENTER">
 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">This can amount to lay-offs for a few hundred people. At the same time, I cannot of course guarantee that there will
never be more lay-offs. Despite the lay-offs, we are still a large company with approximately 50,000 employees. And we will continue to work as effectively and simply as possible. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Let me share some reflections on the telecom industry. The fundamental growth in the industry is healthy. Over the past years one half
million new subscribers have been added every day. In China alone, subscribers increase by five million every month. China has historically been our second largest market. USA has the leading position. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In many regions of the world we see mobile phone penetration is extremely high. For example
in Western Europe, parts of the USA and Asia. In these regions mobile penetration is close to 80 percent or more. And we can see that those who already have mobile phones use them even more. Not only for voice but also to send text and images and
other new services. And each day our joint venture, Sony Ericsson reports new successes with its camera telephones. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Let me take the opportunity to say a few words about Sony Ericsson. When we created the company together with Sony in 2001 we were convinced of our knowledge in mobile
communications and Sony&#146;s knowledge in consumer technology would be a strong combination. And we were right. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Last year Sony Ericsson reported a nice result. And this year at the major telecom trade show 3GSM in Cannes, Sony Ericsson&#146;s T610 was awarded the prestigious prize
for the world&#146;s best telephone. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The T610 is a good example of how
today&#146;s telephones have more functionality. We also see that people are beginning to change the way they communicate. We now have a telephone, a camera and a music player all in one. And we see new functionality continuing to develop.
Ultimately it is about what people need to communicate. We humans want to share our experiences, both verbally and with images. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">This year 3G is being rolled out. We will be part of 46 WCDMA networks around the world by year end. Yesterday we announced a new 3G contract with the operator ONE in
Austria. And as recently as last week the first 3G-call took place in Vietnam. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">Now 3G with broadband to our mobile phones will be launched around the world. To give you an idea of what services in our phones we are talking about, I have asked Gunilla Fransson to join us today. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Gunilla is head of Service Layer. An area that we believe will have increasing importance for
us. Please welcome Gunilla with a warm round of applause. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Thank you Gunilla!
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I hope that you are as enthusiastic as I am over the benefits and
gratification, that the new generation of mobile telephony can offer. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Let me
continue to discuss the growth we see ahead of us. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Beside the ongoing roll out
of 3G we see a continued strong demand for the second generation mobile systems GSM and CDMA. 80 percent of the world&#146;s population still lacks a telephone. Consequently the potential for GSM and CDMA is huge. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In order to stimulate demand we have developed a solution for rural areas. We call this
solution Ericsson Expander. With Expander each base station covers a wider geographical area than any other similar technology. Consumers previously unprofitable for operators can now become profitable ones. Therefore operators can motivate building
coverage in rural areas for consumers only willing to pay the equivalent of SEK 25-30 per month. We see great potential for Expander in Asia, Russia as well as in the USA and Australia. </FONT></P>

<p Style='page-break-before:always'>
<HR  SIZE="3" COLOR="#999999" WIDTH="100%" ALIGN="CENTER">
 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Today we have 1.3 billion mobile subscribers worldwide. We believe that with Expander that number can grow to three
billion subscribers. With Expander, people who have never had TV, telephones or computers can now have contact with the rest of the world. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Recently I met India&#146;s ambassador Chitra Narayanan. She described to me very concretely what mobile telephony could do for a remotely situated village in India.
Women in villages often buy one mobile telephone the entire village can use to keep in touch with the outside world. For many people this mobile phone is their only possibility to have contact with the outside world. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">This is just one good example of how we are driving and shaping the telecommunications
industry. We create contact between people and contribute to growth and the development of democracy. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Another area where we see good growth opportunities is in services. That is to say, our professional services within the business unit Global Services. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">This is also an example of how we drive the telecommunications industry by establishing new business models with operators. Today we help

in and manage network operations. In this way operators can reduce their operational costs and spend more time developing their business and customer care. Operators have great demand for this because of the speed and complexity of technological
development. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Today we are the largest provider of services in the telecom

reach databases, read emails and update calendars on telephones. And in critical situations, the availability of image and voice communications can save lives. The consequence for us as a telecommunications vendor is that we cannot only be a
technology leader and work most effectively. We must also be the best at understanding society and consumer needs. And together with operators &#150; in close partnership &#150; develop our technology so that we can meet society and consumer needs.

industry. One third of our products have been introduced during the last 12 months. And remember that the new products must be compatible with the oldest products and they also have to work with products from our competitors, in one global seamless
network. And the maximum down time, planned or unplanned, for a network is a couple of minutes per year. This is the challenge of the industry. And this is what makes the telecoms industry so existing and unique. </FONT></P> <P

Without your support for the rights offering, we would not have had such a strong financial position. In light of the successes with cost savings, one could say that the rights offering was unnecessary. But dear shareholders, during 2002 we were in
