Kinnevik (STO:KINVB) The Production Stoppages In Korsnäs Have Been Prolonged

Kinnevik (STO:KINVB) Investment AB Kinnevik (publ) ("Kinnevik") today announces that as a result of a weakening demand in all product segments the production stoppages in Korsnäs in the fourth quarter will exceed the previously planned 12 days, which will impact profitability in the fourth quarter.

The result in the fourth quarter 2008 will be impacted by the maintenance stoppages implemented according to plan, prolonged market-related stoppages and write-downs and is expected to amount to minus SEK 70-90 million. In addition, the previously communicated provision to meet staff reductions of approximately SEK 75 million will be taken in the fourth quarter.
