STOCKHOLM--Swedish network technology supplier Ericsson AB (ERIC) said late Tuesday that it still aims to grow faster than the market.

Speaking at the company's annual general meeting, Chief Executive Hans Vestberg said "We aim to continue to grow faster than the market, improve operating income by monetizing our footprint, building successes in targeted growth areas and by efficiency improvements."

He said "The long-term fundamentals in the industry remain attractive and the transformation journey that accelerated during 2014 will continue throughout 2015 and beyond."
