PRESS RELEASE
18 January 2011
KORSNÄS FOURTH QUARTER RESULT 2010
Investment AB Kinnevik (publ) ("Kinnevik") today announces that, as a result of production disturbances in the fourth quarter, the production and operating profit in Korsnäs is lower than anticipated. Production was approximately 240 Ktonnes and the operating profit is expected to amount to approximately SEK 115-120 million in the fourth quarter 2010 (SEK 242 million). Operating profit for 2010 is still expected to increase to approximately SEK 925-930 million (SEK 851 million).
The lower production in the fourth quarter is explained by problems at the Gävle plant in connection with the start-up after the annual maintenance stop in October and a fire in a power station in December. The problems have been analysed and measures have been implemented to ensure that they will not reoccur.
