STOCKHOLM, Sweden, March 23, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- In the "Proposed distribution of unappropriated earnings" in Hufvudstaden's Annual Report for 2003, the balance brought forward incorrectly refers to the Group instead of the Parent Company. The amount to be carried forward for the Parent Company after the dividend of SEK 1.20 per share should be SEK 1,934,591,231, not SEK 2,216,481,812 as was stated.
The Annual Report sent to the Swedish Patent and Registration Office will be adjusted in this respect.
The same adjustment will be made regarding the Annual Report for 2002.
The correct Annual Reports are available on Hufvudstaden's website, www.hufvudstaden.se
