CEO’s comments

“Through the acquisition of Environmental Filtration Technologies Inc (EFT),
Nederman is strengthening its position on the important market in North America,
and also other markets such as Australia. The addition of EFT reinforces
Nederman’s world-leading position in industrial air filtration.

Increasing concern about the economy and falling industrial output has lead to
our customers taking a more cautious approach to investments during the third
quarter.”
