Company in Mozambique becomes wholly-owned


G & L Beijer AB is exercising its option and acquires the remaining 60 per cent
of the shares in the jointly owned company, Metraclark LDA, in Mozambique. G & L
Beijer established an operation in Mozambique in November 2011 through its South
African subsidiary, Metraclark, which together with the wholesaler, Logos
Industrias, formed a joint-venture company. Initially, G & L Beijer acquired 40
per cent of the newly formed company to which an operation was provided with
annual sales of approximately SEK 15M.

In connection with the transaction, G & L Beijer received an option to acquire
the remaining 60 per cent of the company, which is now exercised. The operation
in Mozambique has developed positively and reported sales of around SEK 20M for
2012 with good profitability. Now that the company becomes wholly-owned,
additional resources can be provided to enable the further development of the
operation in the country.

G & L Beijer’s operations in southern Africa, which includes South Africa,
Botswana, Namibia and Mozambique, report strong growth. During 2012, sales
increased by 13 per cent to more than SEK 620M, equivalent to nine per cent of
consolidated sales.
