EAC Group's consolidated revenue reached DKK 1.1bn up 14 per cent in DKK
compared to Q1 2007. Operating profit grew by 46 per cent to DKK 124m based on
a strong opening of 2008 by EAC Foods supported by solid results in the other
two businesses.
The Group maintains the expectations of double-digit revenue growth both in
local currencies and in DKK to around DKK 5.2bn.
The Group's consolidated operating profit (EBIT) excluding non-recurring items
is expected to be around DKK 540m in line with the previous expectations.
Yours sincerely,
The East Asiatic Company Ltd. A/S
