Annual Report 2006

The year saw a good demand but dramatically higher prices for raw materials and energy. Net sales increased by 15 % to SEK 7,273 million (6,299 m) on the back of price increases and volume growth. The operating earnings before depreciation and impairment, EBITDA, amounted to SEK 1,091 million (1,156 m). Adjusted for nonrecurring items, EBITDA increased to SEK 1,097 million (1,079 m). 

A sustainability report for 2006 will be published in the middle of April as an addition to the Group’s Annual Report, with reports of Perstorp’s work with the environment, health, security and Human Resources. Both reports will be available in printed format.
