Intrum Justitia publishes Annual Report 2005

The Intrum Justitia AB Annual Report 2005 will be available on the corporate web site, www.intrum.com, as of today, Thursday 30 March 2006, at 3 pm CET. In the statement by the CEO, Jan Roxendal comments: “For the vast majority of our clients, effective cash flow management is critical in order to build on a financially solid foundation. One of the cornerstones of our strategy is therefore to further develop and strengthen our core business, Consumer and Commercial Collection. At the same time we are striving in each local market to provide just the right offering that clients demand.” “Economic activity in Europe is expected to remain high in 2006, along with consumer spending. A further increase in debt levels can be expected as well. Interest rates have begun to rise in several countries, but from historically low levels, and thus we do not regard this as disruptive to our business. If anything, it may lead to more collection cases.” The printed version will be distributed as of next week and can be ordered on the corporate web site or from Intrum Justitia, Investor Relations at +46 8 546 10 204.
