CEO Magnus Brännström comments

“A clearly improved operational efficiency and profitability give us a stable
foundation to address the challenges ahead. I am very pleased to see another
quarter of strong growth in Asia, Africa and Latin America with further margin
expansion, while sales in the CIS and Europe are slightly lower than expected.
The decline in the group sales force is fully compensated by strong
productivity. Going forward, we are confident in our ambitions to strengthen the
income opportunity for our Oriflame Consultants through innovation and brand
building thereby securing a long term sales force increase.”
