Interim Report Orc Group Holding AB January 1 – September 30, 2014

Regulatory News:

Orc Group (STO:ORC):

PROGRESS FOR ORC’S PRODUCTS BUT MARKETS REMAIN CHALLENGING

> Operating revenue for the period from July to September 2014 was SEK 98m (105), a decrease of 7% compared to the same period of 2013 that is mainly due to continued low activity in the financial markets. Revenue was unchanged compared to the first two quarters of the year.

> Adjusted EBITDA was SEK 43m (54) and adjusted EBITDA-CAPEX was SEK 17m (26). Operating expenses and CAPEX are on a level with the corresponding period of last year and the previous quarter. Income for the period is on par with the past two quarters.

COMMENTS FROM CEO TORBEN MUNCH:

"The third quarter revenue remained at the same level as previous quarters. However, there is lingering uncertainty concerning the market outlook in Europe, as well as North America and Asia.

The third quarter saw continued success for Orc’s new product suite. Orc Flow Control, a versatile tool for risk control and regulatory compliance, was awarded the title of "Best New Product for Risk Management of the Year” by the industry organization Futures and Options World (FOW).

Like revenue, our costs were stable during the quarter. As previously mentioned, Orc has established a strong cost culture, which has made it possible for the company to show solid margins even when revenue is under pressure.

The global financial market is continuing to evolve, with a slowly growing clarity regarding the regulatory framework and future structure of the financial system. Orc is closely following this trend and proactively adapting its offering and services in order to best enable our clients to succeed in their core businesses.”
