Comments by CEO Johan Hjertonsson:

  · Increased sales compared with the previous year
  · The effects of the financial downturn were felt, primarily, within Retail
lighting, resulting in a lower level of orders received and a weaker operating
margin than in the corresponding quarter during the previous year
  · Continued focus on adapting expenses but investments in product development
continue
  · Good cash flow during the quarter
  · Negative impact of currency effects
  · We estimate that we are increasing market share in all product areas
