Significant events during the third quarter:

Frisk®in the Swedish market for probiotic dietary supplements.

•    German company Symrise became Probi’s largest shareholder after acquiring
11.8% of the share capital.

“Our total net sales, excluding ProViva, to date this year have increased by
slightly more than 14% despite the prevailing business climate. For the
remainder of the year, we anticipate additional, slightly higher growth in this
area. It is particularly gratifying to note that Probi Mage, slightly more than
two years after its launch, is the product that has the highest sales value
among non-prescription products for gastrointestinal health in the Swedish
pharmacy market. In pace with a decline in the total market in Sweden for juices
and fruit drinks, we have experienced a decrease in ProViva volumes compared
with 2011 and this trend continued during the third quarter. We anticipate that
income from ProViva during the remainder of the year will be at the same level
as in the fourth quarter of 2011,” says Michael Oredsson, CEO of Probi.
