Automotive revenue, which was impacted in early 2009 by the drop in worldwide automobile production and manufacturer inventory drawdowns, rose by 53.4% compared with first-quarter 2009 to €605.6 million, on a par with fourth-quarter 2009 (€594 million). This sharp increase was led by the rebound in production in North America and Europe, continued strong growth in Asia (especially in China, where revenue was up 152% for the period) and the launch of the BMW X1 in Germany, the restyled X5 in the United States, the Citroën C3 and DS3 in France, and the Opel Astra in Germany.

Second-quarter 2010 revenue is expected to be roughly comparable.

In the first quarter, the Environment Division returned to growth, which is expected to accelerate over the full year.
