OEM International changes its financial targets

The Board of OEM International has decided to change the company’s financial
targets. The reason is that the market today is different than when the earlier
targets were set, and that the company wants clearer targets for its result.
The target for turnover growth over a business cycle is changed from 15 per cent
to at least 10 per cent per annum. Having considered the underlying growth and
inflation in the markets where OEM International operates, the Board has
concluded that this is a more pertinent target. The previous target was set in
the 1990’s when both the underlying growth and inflation were different.

The target for annual earnings growth of 15 per cent over a business cycle is
replaced by a new financial target: an EBITA-margin of at least 10 per cent per
annum over a business cycle. The reason is that this financial target creates
greater clarity with respect to the profitability level that the company strives
to achieve.

OEM International’s new financial targets are:

-      Turnover growth of at least 10 per cent per annum over a business cycle.

-      An EBITA-margin of at least 10 per cent per annum over a business cycle.

-      Return on equity of at least 20 per cent per annum over a business cycle.

-      Equity ratio of at least 35 per cent.
