Sales: $1,699 million
Operating Margin: 7.4%
Earnings per Share: $0.91

(Stockholm, April 26, 2007) - - - For the quarter ended March 31, 2007, Autoliv
Inc. (NYSE: ALV and SSE: ALIV) - the world¬wide leader in automotive safety
systems - reported a sales increase of 8% to $1,699 million compared to the same
quarter last year despite an almost 2% decline in light vehicle production.

However, primarily due to higher direct costs, operating income declined by 10%
to $126 million and the operating margin to 7.4%. Excluding a one-time charge of
$4 million, operating margin was 7.6% and in line with prior guidance. 
Income before taxes declined by 15% or $20 million to $113 million and net
income by 23% or $21 million to $73 million, partially as an effect of higher
interest expense due to an acquisition and share repurchases. Earnings per share
declined by 19% to $0.91. 
Sales for the second quarter 2007 are expected to increase by approximately 6%
despite an anticipated 9% drop in West European light vehicle production.
Operat¬ing margin is expected to remain on approximately the same level as in
the first quarter of this year.
