BALANCE SHEET CHANGE DUE TO THE ACQUISITION

October-December

▪ The main driver behind the change in cash position was the acquisition of MWR InfoSecurity

▪ Cash flow from operating activities before financial items and taxes was 10.5m (13.1m).

▪ Cash flow decreased due to decline in EBIT and a change in net working capital. Acquisition and integration related costs impacted cash flow negatively in third quarter.

▪ Cash flow from operations was EUR 8.3 million (11.4m).

▪ Gearing ratio was 13.9% (127.8% negative)

▪ F-Secure’s financial position remained solid. Short term investments were sold in June 2018 as F-Secure prepared to finance the acquisition of MWR InfoSecurity in the beginning of third quarter.
