*          High organic growth, 10 per cent in the second quarter, 14
  per cent in the first half year.
*          Operating profit for the second quarter amounted to SEK
  32.1 million (15.8). Adjusted for non-recurring items, profit
  improved by SEK 5.8 million or 22 per cent.
*          Barnwell, which was the repository for medium-level waste
  in the USA, closed at the end of June. Capacity utilization and
  profitability at the treatment facility in Erwin were positively
  affected before the closure.
*          Studsvik's market initiative of offering waste treatment
  at Erwin and then storage of the residual products in Texas as an
  alternative to deposition at Barnwell met with a positive response.
  Contract negotiations and licensing processes are under way.
