SKF files to deregister from SEC, USA

SKF intends to file on 5 June 2007 a Form 15F with the US Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC) to deregister under the US Securities Exchange Act of
1934 its Class B shares and to terminate reporting obligations with respect to
its 7 1/8% Notes due 1 July 2007. SKF expects that the deregistration will
become effective 90 days after filing. As a result of the filing, SKF's
obligation to file certain reports and forms with the SEC, including Forms 20-F
and 6-K, will be immediately suspended. In 2003, SKF delisted its ADRs from
trading on NASDAQ as the globalization of the capital markets eliminated the
need of a presence on a local stock exchange. SKF intends to maintain its ADR
facility in the United States.
