Schouw & Co. upgrades full-year 2011 EBIT guidance to approximately DKK 640 million

In our consolidated interim report for the third quarter of 2011, issued on November 3, 2011, full-year EBIT guidance was upgraded for BioMar, Grene, Hydra-Grene and Martin Professional and downgraded for Fibertex Personal Care, Fibertex Nonwovens and Xergi.

However, based on the preliminary reports received, which are unaudited, it is clear that BioMar's earnings in Q4 2011 were substantially better than expected, and bad debt provisions are expected to be less than previously anticipated.

In addition, Grene, Hydra-Grene and Martin Professional are all expected to report slightly better full-year 2011 EBIT than most recently guided, while Fibertex Personal Care, Fibertex Nonwovens and Xergi are all expected to report EBIT in line with the previous guidance.

As a result, Schouw & Co. now expects to report consolidated full-year 2011 EBIT of around DKK 640 million rather than the previously guided range of DKK 540-590 million.

Schouw & Co.'s 2011 Annual Report is scheduled for release on March 8, 2012.
