Interim report Q2, April – June 2012

• Net sales for the quarter amounted to SEK 1,212m (1,120). Operating profit was
SEK –53m (70).

• Underlying net sales fell by 3.0 per cent, which is mainly explained by weak
market conditions.

• Items affecting comparability amounted to SEK –103m (–52), and consisted
mainly of costs related to the integration process and costs arising from
factory restructurings.

• Cash flow from operating activities reached SEK 102m (143).

• Underlying EBITA amounted to SEK 53m (112). The decrease is mainly due to the
fact that it has not been possible to fully compensate for higher raw material
costs through increased net prices.

• The integration process is continuing as planned. Staff reductions were
carried out in August.

• The factory restructurings are proceeding according to plan. A decision has
been made to close the factories in Aura, Alingsås and Gävle.

• The rights issue was fully subscribed.

• NASDAQ OMX Stockholm decided to move Cloetta from the Small Cap to the Mid Cap
segment as of 2 July 2012.
