President and Chief Executive Officer Joakim Olsson comments on the first quarter of 2010 Haldex delivered strong earnings during the quarter, reflecting an upturn in demand among our customers from very low levels. Higher manufacturing and delivery volumes are instilling hopes that the worst is now over when it comes to the global vehicle industry. The improvement in operating margins also shows that the cost reductions that we have implemented are having a significant impact on earnings at volumes that are much lower that what may be regarded as normal. The improvement trend continued throughout the quarter and was amplified considerably during March. It is gratifying to note that all of our divisions achieved improvements in terms of both earnings and demand, which bodes well for the future. * Continuing operations, excluding restructuring costs, nonrecurring items and amortization of acquisition-related surplus values.
