For Immediate Distribution




[Stockholm,  24 May 2012] - At  the SinterCast AB  (publ) Annual General Meeting
(AGM) to be held later today, SinterCast will present a positive market outlook,
with  continued  series  production  growth,  and  new  opportunities for series
production commitments and new installations.

Specifically,  the  CEO  presentation  will  note  that, although the annualised
series   production  has  stabilised  since  the  fourth  quarter  of  2011, the
components  that are currently  in series production  have a mature potential of
more than two million Engine Equivalents.  Beyond the current series production,
further  growth opportunities are expected  with increased diesel penetration in
North   America,   new  commercial  vehicle  engine  commitments  in  Asia,  the
application of CGI for the first high volume petrol engine, and continued demand
for  new  installations,  particularly  in  Asia.   Although no new installation
commitments  have been secured  prior to the  AGM, the Company  targets at least
three  new  installations  before  year-end.   The  Company  will  also take the
opportunity  of the AGM to present the  establishment of its new local companies
in China and Korea.


For and on behalf of the Board of Directors:
