UPDATED GUIDANCE FOR NORMA In order to provide all investors with the same information following Autoliv's offer for the outstanding shares in AS Norma, the management board of Norma is giving its investors the following financial guidance for the first quarter and the full year 2010:. According to 1Q10 forecasts specified in February 2010, sales during the first quarter of 2010 will be at the same level as the fourth quarter of 2009 but is expected to increase compared to the same period in 2009 by 65% to approximately EUR 16 million. Profitability for the first quarter of 2010 is expected to decrease from the fourth quarter of 2009 to an operating margin of approximately 8%. On a full year basis, management believes that sales growth will be below first quarter growth due to market and volume uncertainty for the remainder of 2010 and sales are expected to reach approximately EUR 57 million. This would indicate a sales growth of 12% compared to 2009. Primarily due to the weaker trading during the rest of the year, operating margin from the first quarter cannot be sustained but is still expected to recover from the 2009 level and amount to approximately 5 % for the full year. The preliminary data is unaudited and is not based on financial statements approved by the Management Board. Norma will publish its annual report for 2009 on March 25 and a release of the first quarter 2010 financial statements on April 26, 2010.
