2007-March-12                                                                   


Opus Prodox AB (publ) has signed an agreement to acquire the Danish industrial  
group EWJ, consisting of 3 companies. The acquisition doubles Opus' turnover.

earnings per share already during 2007.                                         

This is a very important structural deal that enables higher growth, adding new 
products and markets as well as a broader technological know-how. The business  
activities of the companies complement each other which will create synergies   
and add shareholder value, says Opus Managing Director Magnus Greko.            

The EWJ group consists of the two Danish companies EWJ Teknik A/S and Autek A/S 
as well as the Swedish company EWJ Svenska AB. The companies that have key

distributors in 40 countries world wide.                                        

The merger between Opus and the EWJ group create a more competitive group which 
can offer complete solutions for vehicle inspection to our customer's world     
wide. Together with Opus products and Opus production facility in China is the  
new group able to challenge the large international competitors aiming to become
a ”Preferred Supplier” of quality equipment for safety and environmental testing
of vehicles, says Henrik Jörgensen, Managing Director and owner of the EWJ      
group.                                                                          

Henrik Jörgensen joins the new group management and will together with the      
founders of Opus, Magnus Greko and Jörgen Hentschel, aim for a continued        
international expansion. Henrik Jörgensen will also be appointed to be a member 
of the board of directors in Opus.                                              

Financial information                                                           
The acquisition will be consummated no later than the 30 June 2007 after Due    
Diligence and finalized purchase agreement. Payment will be made by a new shares
issue covered by the existing authorisation to the board of directors from the  
annual shareholders' meeting.                                                   

The EWJ group has a turnover of approx. 40 MSEK with a current profit margin of 
approx. 5 %. By co-ordinating the sales and marketing organisations synergies,  
higher growth and cost savings are expected. By utilizing Opus production unit

opportunities the new group will get.
