As from January 1, 2007, Ericsson reports three segments according to the structure below.



Ericsson reports the following business segments:

Business segment Networks includes products for mobile and fixed broadband access, core networks, transmission and next-generation IP-networks. Related network rollout services are also included. In addition, the power modules and cables operations are included within Networks, as well as the acquired operations of Redback and Entrisphere.

Business segment Professional Services includes all service operations, excluding Network rollout reported under Networks. Services for system integration of IP and core networks previously reported as network rollout are now reclassified as Professional Services. Sales of managed services as a part of the total Professional Services will be disclosed since this represents service revenues of a recurring nature.

Business segment Multimedia includes multimedia systems enterprise solutions and mobile platforms. The operations of Tandberg TV, Drutt, LHS and Mobeon will also be included in Multimedia.
