Electrolux to apply for deregistration with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission

Electrolux to apply for deregistration with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission

In 2005, Electrolux de-listed its American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) from
Nasdaq in response to the internationalization of capital markets and the
increase in international ownership of shares on the Stockholm and London stock
exchanges. 

Electrolux intends to apply for deregistration with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC). Deregistration is expected to become effective during
the fourth quarter 2007. 

As a consequence of the application, Electrolux obligation to file certain
reports and forms with the SEC, including the 20-F and 6-K, will be immediately
suspended. Electrolux financial reports and press releases will continue to be
made available in English on Electrolux website (www.electrolux.com).

Electrolux shares will continue to be listed on the stock exchanges in Stockholm
and London. Electrolux has not terminated its ADR facility.
