Aspo's financial performance for the October-December period was stronger than expected. Revenue growth accelerated and will reach a 27% jump for the year as a whole. All divisions improved their operating profits and exceeded forecasts in December. This will generate an approximately 50% improvement in Aspo's operating earnings on the fiscal year.
Aspo will announce its fiscal 2004 figures on February 9, 2005.
