Year-end Report January-December 2014

“The majority of Bong’s large restructuring program was launched during 2014 and
is proceeding according to plan. The remaining part will be implemented before
end of second quarter 2015 and we expect full effect of all initiatives in 2016.
Despite high costs for restructuring, we achieved a positive cash flow in 2014
which secures the financing of the remaining restructuring costs and other
extraordinary costs. With fewer and more efficient factories we expect further
reductions in our working capital in the coming years. Our goal is to return to
profit on bottom line latest 2016.” says Stéphane Hamelin, CEO.
