ÅF is to sell its French subsidiary AF Cheq Froté S.A. The company
has 50 employees.
The purchasers are the management of AF Chleq Forté. The transaction
amounts to 1 EURO.
The sale will have no effect on profits as provisions for this
transaction were made in the annual accounts for 2006.
The sale is part of the strategic re-alignment currently being
undertaken within ÅF's Process Division.
As the sale requires the approval of a general meeting of
shareholders in AB Ångpanneföreningen, an extraordinary meeting of
shareholders has preliminarily been planned for August. A separate
call to the meeting will be published no later than two weeks prior
to the meeting.
