Munters has signed an agreement to divest division MCS to Triton


 Munters focuses on the core business and has therefore signed an agreement to
divest division MCS to Triton. The deal value and estimated cash flow effect
comprises cash payment and repayment of intra-group loans to a total value of
around SEK 1,300 M. Estimated impact on net profit is approximately SEK 650 M.

Division MCS is a global leader in damage restoration services. The business had
during 2009 net sales of SEK 2,768 M and 1,805 employees in 18 countries.

"After an intensive transformation phase within division MCS, a foundation has
been laid making it possible to take the next step in developing the damage
restoration business. Since the synergies between MCS and the other divisions
within Munters are limited, we believe that the next step in MCS development is
best taken outside Munters", says Lars Engström, CEO.

Completion of the transaction is conditional upon approval from the relevant
competition authorities, and Munters' fulfillment of the obligation to inform
and consult with relevant employee representative bodies in each country where
so is required.

The transaction is expected to be completed during Quarter 3, 2010. After the
divestment of MCS, Munters remaining businesses are focused on energy efficient
air treatment solutions based on expertise in humidity and climate control.

"Munters is now able to focus on the core business and the development of the
strong market position we have in our niches. There is growth potential in
several geographies and adjacent product areas, and the transaction reinforces
Munters growth capabilities, both organically and by acquisitions", continues
Lars Engström.

Due to the transaction, Munters quarterly report for January-September 2010 will
be published November 11 instead of October 27 as previously planned.
