The year kicks off with stable improvement in earnings


This information is such that Inwido AB (publ) is obliged to publish in
accordance with the Swedish Securities Market Act and/or Financial Instruments
Trading Act. The information was submitted for publication on Monday 25 April
2016, at 7:46 a.m.

Inwido’s CEO Håkan Jeppsson comments on the first quarter:
“We began 2016 in a stable manner. The improvement in earnings derives mainly
from the strength of our consumer business.”

“Seasonally, the first quarter is clearly the weakest of the year for us, and
this year Easter also fell in the first quarter. The fact that we delivered an
improvement in earnings of nearly 30 percent on the same quarter last year is
pleasing.”

“Sales were in line with last year, which was a little disappointing. The
explanation lies mainly in the lower order bookings from the industry segment at
the end of the fourth quarter last year, and the effect of the early Easter.”

“The agreements we have signed to acquire Outrup in Denmark and Lämpölux in
Finland fit into our strategy well. They are two excellent, profitable companies
with skilful management that are strong in sales channels and markets that we
focus on.”

“Although the year has begun well, the longer-term market outlook is difficult
to assess due to external financial and political risks that could affect many
consumers and accordingly also Inwido. At the same time, there remains a strong
underlying need for both renovations and new housing in Europe.”
