Statement from President and CEO Peter Rejler
Industrial market conditions have weakened further during the
quarter, which has resulted in lower capacity for Rejlers industrial
group. We are adapting to the order situation in Finland by making
temporary lay-offs. The poorer profit in the Swedish business is
mainly due to lower demand for industrial orders in the northern
region where we are adapting to the market conditions.

Assignments within urban development are dominating Swedish
operations and are increasing in importance in Finland. Energy and
infrastructure assignments are providing a stable employment base.
Capacity within Building and Property is satisfying due to
assignments within public sector construction while private sector
construction business is shrinking in line with falling property
prices.

We continue to work hard with investments in training that will
improve the company's efficiency and strength on the market. Part of
our strategy is to assign industrial engineers to projects within
urban development as well as cost reductions.

Rejlers' Norwegian operations received two significant orders during
the quarter; one was a maintenance contract for Nokia Siemens, while
the other was an energy metering assignment for Vattenfall in Norway.
In Finland we will design and deliver all the electrical engineering
and automation to a new boiler facility in Tantunmaa in Estonia.

Rejlers' financial position is good, and we are well prepared for any
further adjustment to market conditions.
Our growth target remains. We are strengthening our business by
recruiting a new CFO for the Rejler Group with effect from 17 August
2009.
