OUTLOOK AND SHAREHOLDER STRUCTURE

OUTLOOK

Collection Solutions

• The replacement demand in Germany is assumed to continue in 2016, but first quarter 2016 is expected to be slower than the last quarters in 2015, and more in line with first quarter 2015

Sorting Solutions • Due to a reduced backlog during fourth quarter 2015, first quarter 2016 revenue is expected to be lower than the last quarters in 2015, and more in line with first quarter 2015

Currency

  • Reporting in NOK and with some NOK cost base, TOMRA will in general benefit from a weak NOK, measured particularly against EUR
  • TOMRA will consequently continue to gain from a weak NOK, provided current exchange rate levels are maintained
