Lower tax expense for Nolato in the fourth quarter

A decision by authorities concerning a subsidiary in the Nolato Group has allowed a lower tax expense than calculated previously.

The decision means that about SEK 15 M of the Nolato Group’s tax liability will be reversed and that its tax expense will be reduced by the same amount for the fourth quarter.

This translates to a positive effect on earnings per share of SEK 0.57 for Q4 2005.
