In 2009, consolidated revenues totalled DKK 5,701 million, matching a growth rate of 6% of which acquisitions account for approximately half. The effect of exchange rate fluctuations was neutral. Operating profits (EBIT) amounted to DKK 1,149 million and generated net revenues of DKK 795 million, corresponding to growth rates of 10% and 16%, respectively. The profit margin in 2009 was 20.2% against 19.4% in 2008. In the second half-year 2009, in particular, the Group saw considerable growth compared with the difficult second half-year 2008. In the second half of 2009, the Group thus realised growth in revenues, operating profits (EBIT) and net profits of 10%, 26% and 37%, respectively. The Group's ability to generate cash flows remains strong. Cash flows from operating activities thus amounted to DKK 950 million in 2009, which is an increase of 15% on 2008. In 2010, we expect fair growth in both consolidated revenues and operating profits (EBIT), and we expect this growth to be driven, among other factors, by the prospect of an increase in the Group's wholesale of hearing aids that is expected to exceed market growth by 3-5 percentage points in terms of value.
