NOVESTRA’S HALF-YEARLY RESULT WILL BE BETTER THAN THE PREVIOUSLY INDICATED MSEK 15 – 20

AB Novestra’s half-yearly result, which will be presented on August 24, 2004, will show a better result than the previously indicated interval of a profit of MSEK 15 – 20. In connection with the report, Novestra will hold a presentation for investors in order to report in more detail on the development in the non-public portfolio companies.

”We are pleased with Novestra’s own result development during this year’s first six months. However, we regard the strong development in revenues and results among our non-public portfolio companies as being at least equally important, since it more reflects Novestra’s future potential. We look forward to presenting the development in our portfolio companies in more detail,” Novestra’s chairman, Theodor Dalenson, says.
