Anders Frisinger, President and CEO of ProfilGruppen, says:
"The demand weakened further in the fourth quarter and our competitiveness was
challenged by the strong Swedish krona. Even though the reduction of working
hours for all employees has contributed to a cost reduction, the operating
result for the last quarter of the year was negative excluding positive one-off
items.
