New accounting principle 2008

As previously announced in the 2007 Year-end Report, Nobia will
change its accounting principle for conditional discounts. Effective
1 January 2008, conditional discounts will, in accordance with IAS
18:10, be reported as reduced sales. Conditional discounts were
previously reported as cost of goods sold. Operating profit will not
be affected by this change.

The restated effects on net sales and the operating margin for each
region and the Group for 2007 are described below.
