Press release from Trelleborg AB’s Annual General Meeting


Trelleborg AB’s Annual General Meeting was held on April 24, 2013 in Trelleborg.
Approximately 700 shareholders participated in the Meeting. The theme of CEO
Peter Nilsson’s address was “Change and continuity.”

“2012 was a highly eventful year for Trelleborg. We continued our efforts aimed
at improving the Group’s geographic balance by increasing our presence in
markets outside Western Europe and North America. During the year, we
established and acquired no fewer than nine operations in China, India and
Brazil.

“One strategic milestone during the year was the formation of
TrelleborgVibracoustic. This joint venture comprises a merger of our operation
in antivibration solutions for light and heavy vehicles with Freudenberg’s
corresponding operation. The businesses complement each other in an excellent
manner in terms of geographical coverage, product portfolios and customers, and
command a global, market-leading position.

“We are now expanding our efforts to further improve our various processes in
sales, production, purchasing and capital management. At the same time, our
shift to attractive geographies and market segments is continuing untiringly.
This work has already generated results in the form of strengthened market
positions, higher sales, improved profitability and a stronger financial
position. Despite the considerably weakened market position during the second
half of the year, 2012 was our best year to date. But we are far from satisfied.
We are working with full focus toward new, higher financial targets as of 2013.”

Anders Narvinger, Trelleborg’s Chairman for many years, who had declined
