  million

  million
* Earning per share after tax for the first quarter were SEK -0.27
  (-0.28)
* Cash-flow from operating activities for the period was SEK 42.8
  (23.7) million"Our sales growth for the first quarter of 2009 was 14 percent and
  the operating profit EBITDA improved by SEK 6.1 million compared to
  the same period last year. The cash flow from continuous business
  operations almost doubled to SEK 42.8 (23.7) million. All our
  geographic markets show organic growth in local currencies. The
  speed of growth varies however, between the individual markets.

  The current market state has a negative influence on us, however,
  we sell products that offer considerable cost savings, and that is
  an advantage in the prevailing situation. Favorable currencies
  rates have also been helped along during the most recent period.

  All in all, we are pleased with the way 2009 has started and are
  optimistic about the possibility for continued growth throughout
  the year. Our objective is to continue to improve our results, to
  win market shares and to capitalize on those opportunities that a
  weaker market could present."
