Sven Speaks>

Ericsson's CEO Sven-Christer Nilsson said during his speech at the Annual General Meeting:

''Ericsson is in an exciting period. 1999 is not a harvest year but a year in which we are preparing ourselves. And we are well
positioned for the next phase of development.

''We recently presented an entirely new portfolio of mobile telephones. We are equipped to strengthen our position. Our
technological leadership in 3G, which is the first generation of a true mobile Internet, is unchallenged. We have led this
development.

''In connection with the annual results we announced an expectation of lower results for the first six months of 1999. I can
confirm this and particularly in connection with the first quarter. The increase in sales has slowed at the same time as costs for
restructuring have appeared. At the same time it is important to note that the first quarter is often a poor indicator for the balance
of the year.

''This shift in technology and development will be as extensive for man as when the telephone became generally available. It
involves the mobile Internet, an area in which Ericsson has unique strength. We are the world leader in mobility. We already have
6 test systems in operation and we received the first order in the world for a so-called packet-data GPRS.

''Our long-term goal in this 3G market is to post higher growth than the market as a whole. Accordingly, our objective is to grow
by at least 20 percent.''
