DIRECTORS’ REPORT
The Board and the Managing Director of OEM International AB (publ), corporate identity number 556184-6691, hereby submit the Annual Report and the consolidated financial statements for the 2007 financial year. The Annual Report and the consolidated financial statements, including for the auditors’ report cover pages 37-82. BUSINESS ACTIVITIES OEM International AB is represented via its subsidiaries in the Nordic countries, as well as in the UK, Poland, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands and Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Slovakia. OEM is an industrial trading Group operating primarily in northern Europe. Our product range consists of industrial components and systems from suppliers that are each specialists in their fields. Our product range spans from basic mechanical components such as seals and couplings to complete production systems for circuit boards, for instance. OEM’s broad, extensive selection allows the company to customise its offers to best suit the needs of our customers. We constantly expand our range by adding new products and discontinuing or replacing unprofitable products. Each company markets a clearly defined product range which, coupled with the added value of the organisation, forms a brand concept. The brand concepts are launched on new geographic markets as they grow in strength. In 2007, the Group was organised into four company groups/business segments: OEM Automatic, OEM Electronics, Cyncrona and Development. NET SALES AND PROFIT The Group’s net sales amounted to SEK 1,482 million (1,448) for the remaining business units, marking an increase of 2%. This figure also includes SEK 43 million in acquired net sales. Profit before tax rose 9% to SEK 139.1 million (127.5). The year’s profit after tax for the remaining business units totalled SEK 100.8 million (90.8), an increase of 11%. This corresponds to SEK 4.34 (3.92) per share. The Group’s hydraulics unit was divested in 2006 with the result of the sale contributing an additional SEK 2 million (90.8) after tax. This is reported in a separate row in the consolidated income statement. The year’s profit after tax including divested business units totalled SEK 102.8 million (181.6). Earnings per share reached SEK 4.43 (7.84). OEM AUTOMATIC Sales climbed by 16 % to SEK 813 million (698). The group made three acquisitions in 2007, namely Crouzet AB, MPX ApS and Klitsö Processtechnic AS. The acquisitions’ contribution to net sales for 2007 amounts to SEK 43 million, meaning that the group’s net sales rose by 10% excepting the acquisitions. On a whole year basis the acquisitions contribute net sales of about SEK 130 million. Profit before tax rose 4% to SEK 94.6 million (91.0). Business organisations have been set up in Latvia, Lithuania and Slovakia as part of the

group’s geographical expansion plan. Moreover, the group broadened its collaboration geographically with several existing suppliers while concurrently introducing five new suppliers in 2007. OEM ELECTRONICS Net sales dropped to SEK 276 million (307). Lower demand in general in Sweden coupled with changes in the product offer caused the decline in sales. The business units in Finland and Polen report positive growth for 2007. Profit before tax dropped to SEK 14.1 million (18.8). Capacity adjustment measures were implemented in the Swedish unit in the autumn. New power supply and communication solution suppliers were introduced in 2007 and various activities carried out within the Keyboard & Display business area. CYNCRONA Net sales amounted to SEK 188 million (245). Profit before tax dropped to SEK 3.6 million (14.2). Sales figures in Finland dropped by SEK 72 million after the company’s largest customer started working on commission and the number of equipment orders were fewer than in previous years. After a period of low demand in Sweden and Denmark, several deals were settled in these markets. Demand in Norway and the Baltic countries is still very good. Measures to adapt the organisation to lower sales were carried out the second half of the year. DEVELOPMENT Company group Development boosted both sales and profit due to a sound demand and streamlining initiatives. Net sales climbed by 4% from SEK 213 million to SEK 221 million. Profit before tax rose 148% from SEK 13.0 million to SEK 15.4 million. Development is comprised of business units that are in various stages of growth and aim to either evolve into a strong brand concept or be modified to merge with another business unit. The group constantly evaluates opportunities for acquisitions within affiliated product areas, but also within brand new product areas. PROFITABILITY, FINANCIAL POSITION AND CASH FLOW Return on capital employed was 22% (21.2) and return on equity was 17.6% (32.5). The Group’s equity/assets ratio at year-end was 58.9 % (67.2). Shareholders’ equity per share was SEK 22.88 (27.65). Cash equivalents and unutilised credit commitments in the Group amounted to SEK 315 million (495) at the turn of the year. Cash flow from current operations totalled SEK 44.3 million (113.4). After net investments of SEK 10.6 million (31.9), as well as amortisation, new loans, paid dividends and redemption of shares for a total of SEK 220.9 million (-4.8), the year’s cash flow was SEK 166.0 million (140.5). Investments in the Group during the year amounted to SEK 16.0 million (15.3) in
machinery and equipment, SEK 16.0 million (25.8) in buildings, and SEK 28.4 million (11.1) in other intangible fixed assets. GROUP CHANGES On 2 January 2007, OEM acquired the remaining 50% of the shares in Crouzet AB, name changed to OEM Control AB, for EUR 0.6 million in cash. The company trades in automation components. The business has been integrated into OEM Automatic AB and OEM Motor AB. The acquisition means an annual increase in sales of about SEK 30 million but had an insignificant impact on the Group’s profits in 2007. On 1 September 2007, OEM acquired 100% of the shares in MPX Elektra ApS in Denmark for DKR 4 million. The company trades in a broad selection of industrial batteries for the Danish market. The acquired unit contributes sales of SEK 7.7 million and profit before tax of SEK 0.4 million for the 1 September to 31 December period. Had the acquisition occurred as per 1 January, impact on the Group’s sales would have been SEK 16.7 million and profit SEK 1 million. On 10 December 2007 OEM acquired 100% of the shares in Klitsö Processtechnic A/S in Denmark for DKR 28.2 million plus a maximum DKR 6 million in additional purchase price. The company trades in valves and pneumatic systems for Danish industrial customers primarily. Klitsö Processtechnic A/S represents several important suppliers for the OEM Automatic group, which generates significant synergy effects. The acquired unit contributed sales of SEK 5.5 million and profit before tax of SEK 0.2 million. Had the acquisition occurred as per 1 January, impact on the Group’s sales would have been SEK 87.8 million and profit SEK 5.6 million. More information about the acquisitions is presented in Note 5. Legal companies were formed in Latvia, Lithuania and Slovakia in 2007. Restructuring of the Group is still in progress. The objective is to achieve a simpler, more distinct legal Group structure through fusions and voluntary liquidations. Dormant companies Hydroprodukter International i Ängelholm AB and OEM Ejendomsselskab A/S were eliminated from the Group in 2007. EMPLOYEES The number of employees at year-end was 595 (532). The year’s acquisitions contributed an addition 32 (10) employees. The average number of employees in 2007 was 569, compared with 531 during the previous financial year. More detailed information is provided in Note 7 and on pages 12-13, “Employees”. GUIDELINES FOR REMUNERATION TO SENIOR MANAGEMENT The policies for remuneration to senior management adopted at the 2007 Annual General Meeting are described in Note 7. The Board’s proposed policies for remuneration to senior management to be presented at the 2008 Annual General Meeting is that corporate man-

agement apply market salaries and other remuneration terms. In addition to a base salary, management can also receive variable remuneration which can amount to a maximum 50% of the basic pay. Senior executives are to have defined contribution pension terms that are adjusted to market conditions and amount to a maximum 25% of the basic pay. All sharerelated incentive schemes are to be resolved by the Annual General Meeting. The level of remuneration coincides basically with previous years except for the fact that the defined contribution pension terms have been altered from a maximum 20% to a maximum 25% of basic pay. The period of notice will not exceed 24 months and involves the obligation to work during the period of notice. No employment agreements may contain conditions for severance pay. RISKS AND RISK MANAGEMENT OEM’s results and financial position as well as its strategic position are affected by a number of internal factors over which OEM has control and a number of external factors where the opportunity to influence the chain of events is limited. The most important risk factors include the economic situation combined with structural changes, the situation in terms of competition and exchange rate trends. Furthermore, OEM is affected by financial risks such as transaction exposure, translation exposure, financing risk, interest rate risk as well as credit and third-party risks. A description of the financial instruments and how OEM manages the financial risks is presented in Note 26.
votes and one Class B share represents one vote. The face value per share is SEK 1.67. REPURCHASE OF OWN SHARES With the objective of improving the Group’s return on shareholder’s equity and earnings per share, OEM International AB has an authorisation granted to the Board of Directors by the Annual General Meeting, to repurchase its own shares. The Annual General Meeting’s authorisation for the repurchase of shares extends to 10% of the total number of shares, that is, 2,316,690 shares. The company did not repurchase any shares in 2007 and at year-end, the company held no company shares. SHARE SPLIT AND REDEMPTION PROCESS To facilitate trading of company shares and alter the company’s capital structure, the Annual General Meeting decided to carry out a 4:1 share split combined with an automatic redemption procedure. This was carried out in 2007 and gave the shareholders three new shares and one redemption share. The redemption share was redeemed at SEK 20 per share and a total of SEK 154 million was paid to the shareholders for redeemed shares. The key indicators are corrected with a factor of 3 since the financial implication of the transaction is a 3:1 split combined with an extra dividend.
SHARES AND OWNERSHIP STRUCTURE, ETC
OTHER The Board of Directors is appointed by the Annual General Meeting. The Articles of Association include pre-emption clause that means if Class A shares are transferred from one shareholder to another shareholder in the company, or to someone not previously a shareholder in the company, the shares are to be offered immediately to the other holders of Class A shares for redemption through a written application to the company’s Board. If the company decides to issue new shares of Class A and B through cash issue or set-off, the owners of Class A and B shares have preferential right to subscribe for new shares of the same type. Notification of the Annual General Meeting and extraordinary meeting that will address the matter of changes in the Articles of Association is to be issued no earlier than six and no later than four weeks from the date of the Meeting. At year-end, there were four owners who through direct or indirect ownership represent at least one tenth of the voting rights for all shares in the company, namely Orvar Pantzar 28.9%, Hans Franzén and family 21.5%, Agne Svenberg and family 19.2% and Investment AB Latour 11.3%. Severance pay is not included in the employment conditions and notice of termination for the Managing Director is 24 months and a maximum 12 months for the rest of senior management.
OEM SHARES The company has 23,169,309 shares divided among 4,767,096 Class A shares and 18,402,213 Class B shares. One Class A share represents ten

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT The Group does not conduct any research and development of its own. R&D is mainly conducted at our suppliers, using information about market demands that we provide. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT The Group had no operations that require registration under the Swedish Environmental Code in 2007. The Group’s greatest impact on the environment stems from goods and personnel transports, the presence of environmentally-damaging substances in products, printing and distribution of product catalogues, packaging materials and office heating, lighting and cooling. The OEM Group’s environmental policy dictates continuous efforts to minimise our external environmental impact. Environmental efforts will be governed by legal requirements as well as what is financially feasible, technically possible and ecologically justified. The aim is to reduce the impact of our business on the environment in both the short and long term.
three deputies elected by the Annual General Meeting. The members are presented on pages 16-17. Six Board meetings were held in 2007, all of which were recorded in the minutes as well as a Board meeting following election. The work of the Board complies with the rules of procedure adopted by the Board. Once a year, the principal auditor attends and reports on the auditing process. Decisions and the division of responsibility between the Board and the Managing Director are regulated in the written instructions for the Managing Director. The Nomination and Remuneration Committee is comprised of Chairman of the Board Jan Svensson as well as Board members Hans Franzén, Orvar Pantzar and Agne Svenberg. The Committee nominates members to the Board and provides guidelines for remuneration to the Managing Director. The Committee convened once in 2007. PARENT COMPANY The Parent Company is to be an active owner and develop the subsidiaries. In addition to succinct management-by-objectives, this means also contributing expertise and resources in the fields of IT, financial control, HR administration, market communication, quality and environmental control as well as warehouse management. The Parent Company’s sales amounted to SEK 42.7 million (41.3). Of this, SEK 42.5 million (39.3) relates to sales to subsidiary companies. Profit before appropriations and tax amount to SEK48.2 million (105.9). Of the year’s profit, SEK 1 (101.5) million stems from the sale of shares in JMS Systemhydraulik AB and Fastighets AB Hydraulen. In regard to non financial information and financial risk management, the Group’s information also refers to the Parent Company where applicable. PROPOSED DIVIDEND The Board of Directors proposes that the divided be raised from SEK 2.83 to SEK 3. The complete proposal for profit allocation is presented on page 81. FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS OEM’s objective is to achieve a good return on shareholders’ equity with limited financial risks during a period of stable growth. The targets for one business cycle are 15% annual growth in profit, 20% return on equity and an equity/assets ratio not lower than 35%. With its market position, organisation and financial position OEM is well equipped for continued expansion. Growth will be realised through organic growth, geographical expansion and acquisitions. The figures for 2006 are in parenthesis.

NOTE 1. ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
COMPLIANCE WITH STANDARDS AND LEGISLATION The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and interpretations published by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), as approved by the European Commission for application in all Member States. Furthermore, the Group has applied the Swedish Financial Accounting Standards Council’s recommendation RR 30:06 (Supplementary Accounting Regulations for Groups). The Parent Company applies the same accounting principles as the Group, except in those cases specified below in the section “Accounting Principles of the Parent Company”. The differences between the accounting principles of the Parent Company and the Group result from restrictions on how IFRS can be implemented in the Parent Company on account of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and the Act on Safeguarding of Pension Obligations (Tryggandelagen) and, in some cases, for fiscal reasons. REQUIREMENTS FOR PREPARING PARENT COMPANY AND GROUP FINANCIAL REPORTS The Parent Company’s functional currency is the Swedish krona (SEK), which is also the official reporting currency for the Parent Company and the Group. This means that the financial reports are presented in Swedish krona. All amounts are rounded off to the nearest million unless otherwise stated. Assets and liabilities are reported at the historical acquisition value, except for certain financial assets and derivate instruments that are valued at their fair value and available-for-sale assets and disposal groups. Financial instruments, which are valued at their fair value, consist of financial assets classified as financial assets valued at fair value via the income statement or as financial assets that can be sold. Available-for-sale assets and disposal groups are reported at the lowest of the previously reported value and the fair value after deductions for sales costs. To prepare the financial statements in accordance with IFRS, management must make assessments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the accounting principles and the reported amounts pertaining to assets, liabilities, income and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and a number of other factors that are deemed reasonable and prudent at the time they are made. Consequently, actual outcomes may differ from these estimates and assessments. The estimates and assumptions are regularly reviewed. Changes in estimates are reported in the period in which the change is made, if the change affects that period only, or in the period in which the change is made and future periods if the change affects both the current and future periods.

OEM ANNUAL REPORT 2007 ❚ FINANCIAL REPORTING
Assessments made by the management in the application of IFRS that have a significant impact on the financial statements, and estimates and which may give rise to significant adjustments in future financial statements are described in detail in Note 31. The consolidated accounting principles outlined below have been applied consistently throughout the periods reported in the Group’s financial reports unless otherwise stipulated below. Consolidated accounting principles have also been applied consistently to the accounting and consolidation of the Parent Company, subsidiaries and associated companies. STANDARDS, AMENDMENTS AND INTERPRETATIONS ADOPTED FIRST IN 2007 The following new standards, amendments and interpretations have been applied when preparing the financial reports for 2007: IFRS 7 Financial instruments: Information and related amendments in IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statementsdemands extensive information about the significance that financial instruments have for the company’s financial position and earnings, as well as qualitative and quantitative information about the character and scope of the risks. IFRS 7 and the affiliated changes in IAS 1 have lead to more information in the Group’s financial reports for 2007 in terms of the Group’s financial goals and capital management. The standard has not entailed any changes in the accounting principle, but only changes in terms of disclosure of financial instruments. IFRIC 10 Interim Financial Reporting and Impairment does not allow the impairment losses recognised during a period for goodwill, investments in equity instruments and financial assets at cost to be reversed on the subsequent closing day. IFRIC 10 will be applied in the Group’s financial reports for 2007. The interpretation will be applied future-oriented from the date when the Group first began to apply the impairment rules in IAS 36 and the measurement regulations in IAS 39, i.e. in terms of goodwill on 1 January 2004 and in terms of financial instruments as of 1 January 2005. Since no such reversals have been made, the interpretation has no impact on OEM’s financial reports. The Group is not affected by the phenomena covered in other interpretation statements from IFRIC that apply as of 2007. STANDARDS, AMENDMENTS AND INTERPRETATIONS FOR FUTURE APPLICATION WHERE THE GROUP DOES NOT APPLY EARLY ADOPTION The Group has not applied early adoption of new or amended standards and new interpretations that when taken into effect can come to have an impact on the Group’s financial reports. The following IASB and IFRIC adopted revisions with future application can com to have an impact on the Group’s financial reports:
Revised IFRS 3 Business combinations and revised IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements entail changes regarding consolidated accounts and reporting business combinations. The revised standards are to be applied to business combinations beginning the financial year on 1 July 2009 or after. Early adoption is permitted. IFRS 8 Operating segments stipulates what an operative segment is and what information is to be disclosed about these segments in the financial reports. The standard is to apply beginning the financial year on 1 January 2009 or after. Early adoption is permitted. Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements: A Revised Presentation means that the presentation of the financial reports is altered in a few regards and proposes new, non-mandatory titles for the reports. The amendment will not affect the determination of the amounts reported. The revised IAS 1 is to apply beginning the financial year on 1 January 2009 or after. Early adoption is permitted. Based on the Group’s current situation, the following IASB and IFRIC adopted revisions with future application are not expected to have an impact on the Group’s financial reports: Amendments to IFRS 2 Share-based payment: Vesting conditions and cancellations; amendments to IAS 23 Borrowing costs IFRIC 11 IFRS 2: Group and Treasury Share Transactions; IFRIC 12 Service Concession Arrangements; IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes and IFRIC 14 IAS 19 – The Limit on a Defined Benefit Asset Minimum Funding Requirements and their Interaction. CLASSIFICATION, ETC. Fixed assets and long-term liabilities essentially consist only of amounts that can be expected to be recovered or paid more than twelve months after the balance sheet date. Current assets and current liabilities essentially consist only of amounts expected to be recovered or paid within twelve months from the balance sheet date. SEGMENT REPORTING A segment is a part of the Group which is identifiable for accounting purposes that either supplies products or services (business segments), or goods or services in a given economic environment (geographic segment) that are exposed to risks and opportunities that differ from other segments. The Group’s primary segments are business segments. Segment information is presented only for the Group in accordance with IAS 14. CONSOLIDATION PRINCIPLES FOR SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES Subsidiaries are those businesses over which OEM International AB has a controlling influence. Control influence means the controlling entity has the direct or indirect right to structure the company’s financial and operating strategies to obtain economic advantages.
OEM2008_del2_ENG_OK
08-04-22
09.19
Sida 53
When determining whether a controlling influence exists, potential voting equity that can be used or converted without delay should be taken into account. Subsidiaries are reported in line with the purchase method. The method means that the acquisition of a subsidiary is regarded as a transaction through which the Group indirectly acquires the subsidiary’s assets and assumes its liabilities and contingent liabilities. The analysis determines the acquisition value of the shares or business, the fair value of acquired identifiable assets on the acquisition date, and assumed liabilities and contingent liabilities. The cost of an acquisition of the subsidiary’s shares and business respectively is measured as the fair values on the transfer date for assets, incurred or assumed liabilities and equity instruments issued in exchange for the acquired net assets and transaction-related costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition. The excess cost of acquisition over the fair value of the of the Group’s share of the identifiable assets, assumed liabilities and contingent liabilities is reported as goodwill. A negative difference is recognised directly in the income statement. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the effective date of acquisition until the day that control ceases. CONSOLIDATION PRINCIPLES FOR ASSOCIATED COMPANIES Associated companies are companies in which the Group exercises substantial, but not controlling influence over the operational and financial management, generally through a holding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. From the date on which the Group acquires substantial influence, holdings in associated companies are reported in the consolidated financial statements according to the equity method. The equity method means that the value of the shares in the associated companies reported in the consolidated accounts corresponds to the Group’s share in the associated companies’ equity, the consolidated goodwill and other residual values that might exist in the consolidated fair value adjustments. In the consolidated income statement, the Group’s share in the associated companies’ net earnings after tax and minority interest adjusted for depreciation, write-downs or resolution of acquired fair value adjustments respectively is reported under “Participations in associated companies”. Dividends obtained from the associated company reduce the booked value of the investment. On acquisition, any differences between the acquisition value of the holding and the owning company’s share of the net fair value of the associated company’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are reported in accordance with IFRS 3 “Business Combinations”. When the Group’s share of reported losses in the associated company exceeds the reported value of the shares in the Group, the value of the shares is reduced to zero. Deductions for losses are also made against unsecured, longterm financial transactions which, in their financial sense, constitute part of the owning company’s net investment in the associated company. Further losses are not reported,
unless the Group has undertaken to cover losses arising in the associated company. The equity method is adopted until the substantial influence is no longer exercised. TRANSACTIONS TO BE ELIMINATED ON CONSOLIDATION All intra-Group receivables and liabilities, income or expenses, and unrealised gains or losses arising from intra-Group transactions between Group companies are eliminated in their entirety when preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealised gains arising from transactions with associated companies are eliminated to an extent that corresponds to the Group’s share of ownership in the company. Unrealised losses are similarly eliminated as unrealised gains, but only if there is no indication of impairment. FOREIGN CURRENCY Transactions in foreign currencies Functional currency is the currency that applies in the primary economic environments in which the Group companies operate. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate prevailing on balance sheet date. Exchange rate differences resulting from translations are reported in the income statement. Exchange rate differences regarding operating assets and liabilities are reported in the operating income, while changes in value attributable to financial assets and liabilities are reported in net financial items. Non-monetary assets and liabilities reported at their historical acquisition values are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction. Non-monetary assets and liabilities carried at fair value are translated to the functional currency at the rate prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Exchange rate fluctuations are then reported in the same way as other changes in value with regard to assets or liabilities. Foreign entities’ financial reports Assets and liabilities in foreign entities, including goodwill and other corporate fair value adjustments, are translated to Swedish kronor (SEK) at the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses in foreign entities are translated to Swedish kronor (SEK) at an average rate that represents an approximation of the rates that applied when each transaction took place. Differences that arise when translating currency in foreign entities are recognised immediately in shareholders’ equity as a translation reserve. The translation reserve includes the translation difference accumulated as of 1 January 2004. When a foreign entity is divested, the accumulated translation differences related to the entity are realised in the consolidated income statement. INCOME Sale of goods Income includes only the gross inflow of economic benefits that the company receives or
can receive for its own benefit. Revenue from the sale of goods is booked as income when the company has transferred to the purchaser to the essential risks and benefits associated with ownership of the goods. If there is considerable uncertainty in terms of payment, attached costs or risk for returns and if the seller retains involvement with the ongoing administration which is usually associated with ownership, revenue is not taken up as income. Income is booked at the fair value of what has been received or will be received with deductions for discounts. Amounts collected for the benefit of another are not included in the company’s income but instead constitute received commission. Sales of services and similar assignments Income from the sale of services is recognised in the income statement when the service is supplied based on the degree of completion on balance sheet date. The degree of completion is determined on the basis of costs that have been incurred in relation to the total calculated costs for the assignment. Income from the sale of services and similar assignments is recognised as revenue when the following conditions are met: • The income attributable to the assignment can be calculated in a reliable way. • It is likely that payment corresponding to the completed assignment will flow to the company. • The costs that have occurred and the costs that remain to complete the assignment can be calculated in a reliable manner. If it is considered probable that the combined costs for an assignment will exceed the total income, the suspected loss must be immediately reported in full as a cost. OPERATING EXPENSES AND FINANCIAL INCOME AND EXPENSES Operating leases Payments for operating leases are recognised in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Benefits obtained on signing an agreement are reported as part of the overall leasing cost in the income statement. Financial leases The minimum leasing fees are allocated as interest expenses and amortisation of the outstanding liability. The interest expenses are distributed over the period of the lease, so that each accounting period is charged with an amount corresponding to a fixed rate of interest for the liability reported in the respective period. Variable payments are entered as expenses in the periods they occur. Financial income and expenses Financial income and expenses include interest revenue from bank assets, receivables and interest-bearing securities, interest expenses related to loans, dividend incomes, exchange rate differences attributable to financial investments and financing activities, unrealised and realised gains and losses on financial investments, and derivative instruments used in financial operations. Interest revenue from receivables and interest expenses related to liabilities are calculated

Sida 54
using the effective interest method. The effective interest is the rate that ensures that the current value of all estimated future receipts and payments during the expected interest duration is the same as the reported value of the receivable or the liability. The interest element of financial lease payments is recognised in the income statement by using the effective interest method. Interest revenue and interest expenses respectively include a periodic amount of transaction expenses and discounts where applicable, premiums and other differences between the original reported value of the receivable and liability respectively and the amount received on maturity and the estimated future receipts and payments during the term of the agreement. Dividend income is recognised when the right to retain payment has been established. The Group and the Parent Company do not capitalise interest in the acquisition value of assets. TAXES Income tax consists of current tax and deferred tax. Income tax is reported in the income statement except where the underlying transactions is recognised in equity, in which case any tax effect is recognised in equity. Current tax is the tax to be paid or received for the current year with the application of the tax rates that have been established or which in practice have been adopted as of the balance sheet date. This includes adjustments of current tax attributable to prior periods. Deferred tax is calculated according to the balance sheet method on the basis of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax values of assets and liabilities. Temporary differences are not taken into consideration for differences relating to the initial recognition of goodwill, nor relating to the initial recognition of assets and liabilities that are not a business acquisition which, at the time of the transaction, do not affect either accounting or taxable income. Nor are temporary differences attributable to shares in subsidiaries and associated companies that are not expected to be reversed in the foreseeable future taken into consideration. Measurement of deferred tax is based on how the carrying amount of assets or liabilities is expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax is calculated with application of the tax rate and regulations in effect or in practice adopted as of the balance sheet date. Deferred tax claims relating to deductible temporary differences and loss carry-forwards are only recognised to the extent that it is likely that they can be utilised. The value of the deferred tax claims is reduced when it is no longer deemed likely that they can be utilised. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Financial instruments recognised in the balance sheet include as assets cash and cash equivalents, loan receivables, accounts receivable and financial investments. Accounts payable and loan liabilities are reported as liabilities. A financial asset or financial liability is included in the balance sheet when the company is party to the instrument’s conditions of agreement. Liabilities are included when the counterparty has performed and there is a contrac-
54
OEM ANNUAL REPORT 2007 ❚ FINANCIAL REPORTING
tual liability to pay, even if the invoice has not been received. A financial asset (or part thereof) is removed from the balance sheet when the contractual rights are realised, expire or the company transfers, in all essentials, the risks and benefits associated with ownership. A financial liability (or part thereof) is removed from the balance sheet when the contractual liability is fulfilled or otherwise discharged. Borrowing and investments are reported when the transaction is carried out (settlement date accounting), while derivative instruments are reported when the agreement has been entered into (trade date accounting). A financial asset and a financial liability are offset and reported in the balance sheet as a net amount only when there is a legal right to set off the amount and an intention to adjust the items with a net amount or, at the same time, realise the asset and settle the liability. Financial instruments are reported initially at an acquisition value corresponding to the fair value of the instrument plus transaction expenses for all financial instruments, except those instruments categorised as financial assets reported at their fair value in the income statement, which are reported at their fair value excluding transaction expenses. The financial instruments are classified in the initial recognition depending on the purpose for which the instruments were acquired which affects recognition thereafter. The fair value of listed financial assets corresponds to the asset’s listed bid price on the balance sheet date. The fair value of unlisted financial assets is established by applying valuation techniques such as recently completed transactions, references to similar instruments and discounted cash flow.
Financial investments are measured continuously at fair value, with changes in value being reported in the income statement in net financial items.
Accounts receivable and other current and long-term receivables classified in the category “loans and receivables” in accordance with IFRS 7. Receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted on an active market and are reported at the accrued acquisition value according to the effective interest method. Accounts receivable and other current receivables that normally have a remaining duration of less than twelve months are reported at nominal value. A receivable is individually assessed with regard to its estimated loss risk and is entered at the amount it is expected to generate. Impairments are made where necessary and are reported in the income statement.
Interest-bearing liabilities classified in the category “Other liabilities” in accordance with IFRS 7 Loans are recognised continuously at accrued acquisition value, which means that the value is adjusted through discounts where applicable, or premiums when the loan is taken and costs when borrowing is spread over the expected term of the loan. The scheduling is calculated on the basis of the initial interest rate of the loan. Gains and losses arising when the loan is settled are recognised in the income statement.
Financial investments Financial investments are categorised as financial assets measured at fair value in the income statement. This category has two subgroups: financial assets held for trading and other financial assets that the Company initially chose to include in this category. A financial asset is classified as being held for trading if it was acquired for the purpose of being sold in the short term. To the second subgroup, the company has chosen to attribute financial assets which, according to the management’s risk management and investment strategy, are administered and evaluated based on the fair value. These assets include financial investments in equity instruments and interest-bearing securities.
Derivative instruments Derivatives are categorised as financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the income statement as instruments available-for-sale. Derivative instruments include forward exchange contracts and currency options to cover risks associated with changes in exchange rates. Derivatives are also contractual terms that are embedded in other agreements. Embedded derivatives are recognised separately if they are not closely related to the host contract. Derivative instruments are measured in the initial recognition and regularly thereafter at fair value with value changes recognised as income and expenses in the operating income or in net financial items, based on the intended use of the derivative instrument and how this use is related to an operating item or a financial item. The Group has not used derivatives for hedging purposes during the year 2007 or during the comparative year. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, deposits held with banks and similar institutions, plus short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, which are only exposed to insignificant risk for fluctuations in value. The cash and bank balance is recognised at accrued acquisition value. The definition of cash and cash equivalents in the cash flow statement corresponds with cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet.
Accounts payable and other operating liabilities classified in the category “Other liabilities” in accordance with IFRS 7 Liabilities are recognised at the accrued acquisition value determined from the effective interest that was calculated at the time of acquisition which normally implies nominal value. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT Owned assets Property, plant and equipment are recognised at acquisition value after deductions for accumulated depreciation and impairment costs. The acquisition price includes the purchase price including expenses directly attributable to putting the asset into place and condition to be used as intended by the acquisition. Directly attributable costs, which are included in the acquisition value, include cost of delivery and handling, installation, title deeds, consultancy services and legal services.

Borrowing costs are not included in the acquisition value for fixed asset produced by the company. The accounting principles for impairment are described below. The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment is removed from the balance sheet on the disposal or retirement of the asset, or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal/retirement. Gains or losses arising on the disposal or retirement of an asset is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, less direct sales costs. The gain or loss is recognised in other operating income/cost.
• Frame 100 years • Frame extensions, interior walls, etc. 30 years • Installations, heating, electricity, water and sanitation facilities, ventilation, etc. 20-32 years • External surfaces, walls, roof, etc. 20-50 years The depreciation methods applied, and the residual value of the assets and their useful life are reviewed at the close of every year. INTANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS
Leased assets Leases are classified in the consolidated financial statements either as finance or operating leases. In a finance lease, the financial risks and benefits associated with the ownership are essentially transferred to the lessee, otherwise it is an operating lease. Assets leased under a finance lease are recognised as assets in the Group balance sheet. The obligation to pay future lease fees is recognised as long-term and current liabilities. The leased assets are depreciated according to plan, and the lease payments are recognised as interest and amortisation of liabilities.
Goodwill Goodwill is measured at the acquisition value minus any accumulated impairment. Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units and tested annually for impairment. Goodwill arising from the acquisition of associated companies is included in the recognised value for participations in associated companies. If the acquisition value is less than the net value of the acquired company’s assets and assumed liabilities and contingent liabilities, the difference is recognised immediately in the income statement. In respect of goodwill in acquisitions that were made before January 1, 2004, the Group has not adopted IFRS retroactively on transition to IFRS. Instead, the recognised value in the future will be the acquisition value for the Group, after impairment testing.
Subsequent expenditure Subsequent expenditure is added to the acquisition value only if it is likely that the future economic benefits associated with the asset will flow to the enterprise and the acquisition value can be calculated in a reliable manner. All other subsequent expenditure is reported as an expense in the period it is incurred. A subsequent expenditure is added to the acquisition value if the expense refers to the exchange of identified components or parts thereof. Even in those cases when a new component has been constructed, the expense is added to the acquisition value. Any undepreciated values reported for replaced components, or parts of components, are discarded and charged to expenses when the component is replaced. Repairs are expensed as incurred.
Other intangible fixed assets Supplier relations are measured at the acquisition value minus any accumulated impairment. These have arisen through acquisition and have an indeterminable useful life. Testing is done each year to determine if the circumstances still indicate that the useful life is indeterminable. Impairment testing is done annually and performed when indicated. Other intangible assets include software, trademarks and customer relations. These have a determinable useful life and are recognised at acquisition value less accumulated amortisation and impairment. Expenses of internally generated goodwill and internally generated trademarks are capitalised not as assets but recognised as incurred as expense in the income statement.
Depreciation principles Straight-line depreciation is applied over the estimated utilisation period of the assets. Land is not depreciated. The Group applies component depreciation, meaning that the estimated useful life of components forms the basis for depreciation.
Subsequent expenditure Subsequent expenditure on capitalised intangible assets is reported as an asset in the balance sheet only when it increases the future economic benefits of the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure is expensed when incurred.
Estimates of useful life: • buildings, business property, see below • land improvements 20 years • machinery and other technical facilities 5-10 years • equipment, tools and installations 3-10 years
Amortisation Amortisation is reported in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the estimated utilisation period of the assets, unless such utilisation periods are undetermined. Goodwill has an undetermined utilisation period and is tested for impairment annually or as soon as indications arise that suggest the asset in question has dropped in value. The useful life periods are reviewed annually at least, refer also to Notes 13 and 14.
Business property consists of a number of components with different useful lives. The main group is buildings and land. Land is not depreciated as its useful life is considered to be indefinite. The buildings consist of a number of components with different useful lives. The following main groups of components have been identified and form the basis for depreciation of buildings:
Estimates of useful life: • IT software 5 years • trademarks 5 years • customer relations 5 years
INVENTORIES Inventories are measured at the lowest of the acquisition value and net realisable value. The net realisable value is the estimated sales price in the current operations after deductions for estimated costs for completion and for realising a sale. The first-in, first-out method (FIFO) is applied in estimating inventories. The acquisition value of inhouse manufactured semi-finished and finished products consists of the direct manufacturing costs and a reasonable share of the indirect manufacturing costs. Normal capacity utilisation is taken into account for measurement purposes. IMPAIRMENT The recognised values of the Group’s assets are tested on each balance sheet day for any indication of impairment. Below is a description of the impairment test performed for property, plant and equipment and intangible fixed assets, shares in subsidiaries and associated companies, as well as financial assets. Assets for sale and disposal groups, inventory and deferred tax claims are exempt. The recognised value of the exempt assets is assessed in accordance with the respective accounting standards. Impairment tests for property, plant and equipment and intangible assets as well as shares in subsidiaries and associated companies If there is any indication of impairment, then the asset’s recoverable value is calculated, according to IAS 36 (see below). The recoverable value for goodwill and other intangible assets with undetermined utilisation period is calculated annually. If essentially independent cash flow cannot be isolated for individual assets, then the assets are grouped at the lowest levels where essentially independent cash flows can be identified — a so-called cash-generating unit. An impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit, or pool of units, exceeds its recoverable value. Impairment losses are charged against the income statement. Impairment losses attributable to a cash-generating unit, or pool of units, are mainly allocated to goodwill They are thereafter divided proportionately among other assets in the unit (pool of units). The recoverable value is the highest of the fair value minus sales expenses and utilisation value. Utilisation value is measured by discounting future cash flows using a discounting factor that takes into account the risk-free rate of interest and the risk associated with the specific asset. Impairment test for financial assets All financial assets except those categorised as financial assets valued at fair value via the income statement are tested for impairment. For each report, the company assesses if there is objective proof that indicates impairment of a financial asset or group of financial assets. A financial asset has impairment only if objective proof indicates that one or more events have occurred that have an effect on the financial asset’s future cash flows, if these can be reliably calculated. The recoverable value for the assets categorised as loan receivables and accounts receivable recognised at accrued acquisition value are calculated as current value of the future cash flow discounted by the effective interest that applied on initial recognition.

Assets with a short term are not discounted. Impairment losses are charged against the income statement. Reversal of amortisation An impairment is reversed if there is both an indication that the impairment no longer exists and there has been a change in the assumptions that served as the basis for determining the recoverable amount. Impairment goodwill is however never reversed. Impairment is reversed only to the extent the carrying amount of the assets following the reversal does not exceed the carrying amount that the asset would have had if the impairment had not been recognised, taking into account the amortisation that would have been recognised. Impairment of loan receivables and accounts receivables recognised at accrued acquisition value are reversed if a later increase in the recoverable amount can objectively be attributed to an event that occurred after the writedown was made. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY Repurchase of shares Purchase of such instruments is recognised as a deduction from shareholder’s equity. Payment from sales of equity instruments is recognised as an increase of shareholder’s equity. Any transaction expenses are recognised directly against shareholders’ equity. Paid dividends Dividends are recognised as a liability after the Annual General Meeting has approved the dividend. EARNINGS PER SHARE Earnings per share are based on the Group’s net earnings for the year attributable to the Parent Company’s shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS Defined-contribution pension plans Defined-contribution pension plans are classified as those plans for which the company’s obligation extends only to the contributions the company has committed to pay. In such cases, the size of the employee’s pension is determined by the contribution the company pays to the plan or to an insurance company and the return on capital yielded by the contributions. Consequently, it is the employee that carries the actuarial risk (that compensation is lower than expected) and the investment risk (that the invested assets will be insufficient to cover the expected compensation). Obligations concerning the amounts to the definedcontribution plans are recognised as an expense in the income statement at the rate they are earned as the employees perform their work. Defined-benefit pension plans The Group’s net obligation regarding definedbenefit pension plans is calculated separately for each plan by estimating the future compensation that the employees have earned through their employment in both present and previous periods; this compensation is discounted to current value. The discount rate is the interest

rate on balance sheet date for a first-class corporate bond with a maturity corresponding to the Group’s pension obligations. When there is no active market for such corporate bonds, the market interest rate on government bonds with a similar maturity is used instead. Calculations are carried out by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. Moreover, the fair value of any plan assets is calculated on reporting day. Actuarial gains and losses can arise when determining the obligation’s current value and fair value of the plan assets. These arise either when the actual outcome differs from prior assumptions, or when an actuarial assumption changes. The corridor rule is applied. The corridor rule means that the portion of the accumulated actuarial gains and losses in excess of 10% of the higher of the obligation’s current value and the fair value of assets under plan is recognised over the anticipated average remaining period of employment of the employees covered by the plan. Actuarial gains and losses are otherwise not taken into account. The liability recognised in the balance sheet in respect of pensions and similar obligations is the current value of the obligation at the balance sheet date, less the fair value of the plan assets, together with adjustments for unrecognised actuarial gains or losses and unrecognised costs for past service. When the calculation leads to an asset for the group, the carrying amount of the asset is limited to the net of unrecognised actuarial losses and unrecognised costs associated with service in previous periods and the current value of future repayments from the plan or reduced future payments to the plan. When the compensation in a plan improves, the portion of the increased compensation attributable to the employee’s services in previous periods is expensed through the income statement on a straight-line basis over the average period until the compensation is fully vested. If the compensation is fully vested, an expense is recognised directly in the income statement. All the components included in the period’s cost for a defined benefit plan are recognised in the operating income. Termination benefits A provision is recognised when employees are given notice of termination only if the company is demonstrably committed to terminate an employment before the normal date or when providing termination benefits as a result of an offer to encourage voluntary redundancy. Short-term benefits to employees Short-term benefits to employees are calculated without discounting and recognised as costs when the related services are received. A provision is recognised for the expected cost of bonuses when the Group has a contractual obligation or informal obligation to make such payments when the services received from the employee and the obligation can be reliably calculated. PROVISIONS A provision is reported in the balance sheet when the Group has a legal or informal obligation owing to an event that has occurred and it is likely that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation and a
reliable estimate of the amount can be made. Where it is important when in time payment is made, provisions are estimated by discounting the expected future cash flow at a pre-tax interest rate that reflects current market estimates of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks associated with the liability. A provision for losses is reported when the underlying products or services are sold. The provision is based on historic data on losses and a total appraisal of feasible outcomes in relation to the probabilities associated with the outcome. FIXED ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR SALE AND DIVESTED BUSINESS UNITS The implication of a fixed asset (or a disposal group) classified as available-for-sale is that its recognised value will be recovered principally through a sale and not through use. When initially classified as available-for-sale, fixed assets and disposal groups are recognised at the lower of their carrying amount before classification as available for sale and fair value with deductions for sales expenses. Certain balance sheet items are exempt from the mentioned measurement rules and measured in the same was as before the reclassification. Exempt balance sheet items include financial assets, inventory, plan assets and deferred tax claims. On each subsequent reporting date, the fixed asset or disposal group as a whole is measured at the lowest of fair value minus sales costs and recognised value at the time of reclassification plus impairment that can be reversed without the recognised value exceeding fair value minus sales costs. Losses resulting from a change in value upon initial classification as available for sale are included in the income statement, as are gains or losses following subsequent revaluation. A divested business unit is a component of a company’s operations that represents an independent operation or significant operations within a geographic area or a subsidiary acquired exclusively with the intent to resale. Classification as a divested business unit is made upon divestment or at a previous time when the business unit meets the criteria to be classified as available for sale. A disposal group that will be discontinued can also qualify for classification as a divested business unit from the time it is no longer used. The figures for the comparative years in the consolidated income statement and cash flow statement have been restated and presented as if the business unit sold during the current year had been sold already at the start of the comparative year (refer also to Note 5 and Note 26). CONTINGENT LIABILITIES A contingent liability is reported when there is a possible obligation that stems from past events and the existence of which will be confirmed only by one or more uncertain future events, or when there is an obligation that is not recognised as a liability or provision because it is not possible that an outflow of resources will be required. PARENT COMPANY’S ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES The Parent Company has prepared the Annual Report according to the Annual Accounts Act
OEM2008_del2_ENG_OK
08-04-22
09.19
Sida 57
(1995:1554) and the Swedish Financial Accounting Council’s recommendation RR 32:06 “Reporting for Legal Entities”. Also the Swedish Financial Accounting Council’s Emerging Issues Task Force’s statements for listed companies are applied. RR 32:06 means that the Parent Company in the annual report for the legal entity must apply all EU-approved IFRS and statements as far as possible within the framework of the Annual Accounts Act and taking into account the connections between reporting and taxation. The recommendation specifies exemptions and additions relative to IFRS. The same accounting principles applied for the consolidated financial statements as described above have been applied to the Parent Company, except in the instances described below. Classification and presentation The Parent Company’s income statement and balance sheets are prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act’s scheme. The difference to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements applied when presenting the consolidated financial statements refers primarily to reporting financial income and expenses, equity and the occurrence of provisions as a separate heading in the balance sheets. Subsidiaries and associated companies The parent company reports participation in subsidiaries and associated companies according to the acquisition value method. Only dividends received are reported as income on the condition that these stem from profits earned after the acquisition. Dividends that exceed profits earned are considered a repayment of the investment and reduce the reported value of the participation. Income Completion of service assignments In the Parent Company, income from service assignments is reported according to ÅRL 2, chapter 4 §when the service is completed. Until such time, ongoing work on behalf of another party in regard to the service assignment is reported at the lowest of the acquisition value and net sale value on balance sheet date.
Taxes The Parent Company recognises untaxed reserves including deferred tax liabilities. In the consolidated financial statements however, untaxed reserves are divided among deferred tax liability and shareholders’ equity. Financial guarantee contracts The Parent Company’s financial guarantee contracts consist primarily of security undertaking to the benefit of subsidiaries. Financial guarantees mean that the company has a commitment to compensate the owner of a debt instrument for losses incurred because a named debtor did not make payment on maturity in accordance with the contractual terms. In reporting financial guarantee contracts, the Parent Company adopts the Swedish Financial Accounting Council’s respite compared with the rules in IAS 39. The respite refers to financial guarantee contracts issued on behalf of subsidiaries. The Parent Company recognises financial guarantee contracts as provision in the balance sheet when the company has an obligation for which payment will probably be required to settle the obligation. Group contributions and owner contributions for legal entities The company reports Group contributions and owner contributions in accordance with the statement from the Swedish Financial Accounting Council’s Emerging Issues Task Force. Owner contributions are booked directly against shareholders’ equity for the receiver and capitalised in shares and contributor participations, to the extent that impairment is not required. Group contributions are reported in accordance with their financial substance. This means that Group contributions issued with the purpose of minimising the Group’s total tax are reported directly against profit brought forward after deductions for their current tax effects.
Anticipated dividends Anticipated dividends from subsidiaries are reported when the parent company has sole right to determine the size of the dividend and the Parent Company has decided on the size of the dividend before the Parent Company has published its financial statements. Property, plant and equipment Owned assets Property, plant and equipment in the Parent Company are recognised at acquisition value after deductions for accumulated depreciations and impairment when applicable in the same way applied for the Group but with additions for revaluation of assets when applicable. Leased assets The Parent Company recognises all leases in accordance with the regulations for operating leases.

NOTE 2. BUSINESS SEGMENTS AND GEOGRAPHIC AREAS
Segment reporting is presented for the Group’s business segments and geographic areas. The Group’s internal reporting system is set up on follow-up on the returns of the Group’s goods and services, which is why the business segments are the primary basis for division. Internal prices between the Group’s different segments are fixed using the “arm’s-length principle”, i.e. between parties who are selfsufficient from each other, well informed and with an interest in completing the transaction. In the segments’ profit, assets and liabilities include directly attributable items and items that can be distributed to the segment in a rea-
sonable and reliable manner Non-distributed items consist of interest and dividend income, gains from the sale of financial investments, interest expenses, losses from the sale of financial investments, the Group’s share of losses in associated companies, tax expenses and general administration expenses. Assets and liabilities not distributed to the segments are deferred tax claims and deferred tax liabilities. The segments’ investments in property, plant and equipment as well as intangible fixed assets include all investments except investments in short-term equipment and equipment of a lesser value.

*Including the fee for acquisition expenses in the amount of SEK 0.1 million.
On 1 September 2007, OEM acquired 100% of the shares in MPX Elektra ApS in Denmark for DKR 4 million. 75 % was paid cash in 2007 and the remaining 25% will be paid in 2008 in accordance with the agreement. The company trades in a broad selection of industrial batteries for the Danish market.

NOTE 6. DIVESTED BUSINESS UNITS On 30 November, the Group sold the Hydraulik group comprised of JMS Systemhydraulik AB and affiliated property company, Fastighets AB Hydraulen, where the company conducts its business activities in Borås. Hydraulik was an independent business segment. The Board’s plan to divest the business unit was adopted during the second half of 2006 in conjunction with a decision that JMS Systemhydraulik AB is a relatively small player on a large market, one which is restricted to a few major players. In calculating the profit of divested business units, SEK 3 million was reserved based on the fact that the final payment of SEK 11.4 million in accordance with the agreement in would be made 31 December 2007. The agreement included provisions for accounts receivable and deliveries, etc. The settlement has been made and the provision was SEK 2 million in excess which has a positive effect on profits for 2007. The purchase price was SEK 120 million.

Guidelines for remuneration and other employment conditions for senior executives The Annual General Meeting decided on guidelines for senior executives by which management is to apply salaries adjusted to market conditions and other remuneration terms. In addition to a base salary, management can also receive variable remuneration which can amount to a maximum 50% of the basic pay. Senior executives are to have defined contribution pension terms that are adjusted to market conditions and amount to a maximum 20% of the basic pay.

The period of notice will not exceed 24 months and involves the obligation to work during the period of notice. No employment agreements are to contain conditions for severance pay.

The Group has SEK 0.5 million (2.3) in inactive deferred tax claims corresponding to deficit deduction, which, when measured in accordance with the probability principle, cannot be assumed to be usable as it is not possible to offset the surpluses against these within a reasonable period of time. Deficit deductions that are not calculated and can be used within 3 years have not been activated. The acquisition of subsidiaries affected the deferred tax liability in the amount of SEK 3.8 million while translation differences recognised directly in shareholdersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; equity affected deferred tax liability in the amount of SEK 0.4 million.

These are long-standing supplier relations that are appraised as stable over the foreseeable future. The usage values are based on estimated future cash flows for a total of twenty (20) years
with the starting point in the existing business plans for the next three (3) years. The principal assumptions for the measurement for all cashgenerating units are assumptions about margins and volume growth. The business plans are based on experience from previous years. Current market shares are expected to increase marginally in the forecast period. According to the business plans, operational growth is expected to reach between 5 and 10% each year. Growth is expected to be 3 to 5% each year for other years in the period of use.
The gross profit margins are expected to reach the same level as at the end of 2007. The forecast cash flows have been converted to a present value using a discount rate of 12% before tax. The recoverable values for the units are greatly in excess of their reported values. The Company management is of the opinion that no reasonable changes in the key assumptions will lead to the estimated recoverable values for the units being lower than the reported values.

Booked value
When Klitsö Processtechnic A/S was acquired in 2007, a purchase sum was paid that exceeded the net of assets and liabilities in the Company by SEK 28.5 million with deductions for deferred tax liabilities of SEK 3.8 million. The surplus value was analysed and distributed as SEK 5.7 million to buildings, SEK 9.5 million to trademarks and SEK 13.3 million to goodwill. Trademarks amounting to SEK 9.5 million are assessed to have a useful life of five (5) years, which means that these will be amortised by 20% every year. Other acquisitions made in 2007 have not affected the intangible fixed assets.
The Parent Company’s purchase relates to development costs for software amounting to SEK 1.1 million, which is written off during its assessed useful life of five (5) years. Amortisation begins January 2008. The purchase sum paid for the acquisition of EIG — OEM Automatic spol.s.r.o. in 2006 exceeded the net of assets and liabilities in the company by SEK 11.1 million. The surplus value was analysed and distributed as SEK 0.9 million to orders on hand and SEK 10.2 million to customer relations. The value of orders on hand relates to contribution margin and is
amortised in line with invoicing. At the end of 2006, all invoicing had been completed and SEK 0.9 million amortised. The amount has been charged to costs for trading goods. Customer relations amounting to SEK 10.2 million are assessed to have a useful life of five (5) years, which means that these will be amortised by 20% every year. Impairment test for other intangible assets, refer to Note 15.

( C O N T. N O T E 2 3 ) In Norway, all employees are covered by defined-benefit pension plans. SEK 0.9 million is expected to be paid in contributions for the plans and the expected return on the pension funds is expected to total SEK 0.6 million. In countries other than Sweden, all employees are covered by definedcontribution plans for which the Company pays fixed contributions to a separate legal entity and has no obligation to pay further contributions. The Group’s results are charged by costs as the benefits are earned. The obligation of old age pension and family pension by a small section of the employees in Sweden is secured by an insurance policy with Alecta. According to a statement from the Swedish Financial Accounting Standards Council’s Emerging Issues Task Force, URA 42, this is a defined benefit plan which covers several employers. The Company has not had access to sufficient information to make it possible to report this plan as a defined benefit plan for financial years 2007 and 2006. The pension plan according to ITP, which is secured via insurance with Alecta, is therefore reported as a defined-contribution plan. Contributions this year for pension insurance with Alecta amount to SEK 1.3 million (1.9). Alecta’s excess can be allocated to the policy holders and/or the insured. At the end of 2007, Alecta’s excess in the form of the collective consolidation level was 152% (143). The collective consolidation level is made up of the market value of Alecta’s assets as a percentage of the insurance commitment calculated according to Alecta’s insurance calculation premise, which does not comply with IAS 19. Most of the employees in Sweden are covered by defined-contribution plans. The Group’s total cost for defined-contribution plans is SEK 15.8 million (14.9). The Group’s total cost for defined-contribution plans is SEK 2.5 million (2.4).
NOTE 24. OVERDRAFT The majority of the Swedish companies are connected to a central account system with a total limit of SEK 125 million (150). The overall degree of utilisation is reported in the Parent Company under this item. The subsidiaries’ balance/liability in the central account system is reported in the Parent Company, either as a receivable from, or a liability to, the subsidiaries. The total limit in the Group is SEK 259 million (260).

NOTE 26. FINANCIAL RISKS AND RISK MANAGEMENT
The OEM Group’s primary risks are connected to currencies, customer credits and customer guarantees. Through matching, however, the risks have almost been completely eliminated, through risk elimination that contributes to securing a relatively stable coverage ratio over time for the Group. In addition to the named risks, the Group has a limited interest risk in the form of a cash flow risk. Customer guarantees have not been a cause of any risks of practical significance. There are often corresponding rights of recourse against the supplier for provided guarantees. This management has worked well in practice. The OEM Group’s financial activities and management of financial risks is primarily performed in the Parent Company. There are plans for risk management and how the risks are to be limited. The plans are distinguished by a low level of risk. The basis is a structured and effective management of the financial risks that arise in the business units.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The OEM Group’s holdings of financial instruments that constitute fixed assets are fairly limited. At the end of 2007, the book value of the financial assets of long-term securities holdings was SEK 1.4 million (1.3) and other long-term receivables SEK 1.2 million (0.5). The Group’s holding of financial instruments that represent current assets amounted at year end to SEK 261 million (206) and accrued income to SEK 0.8 million (1.8) and other receivables to SEK 15.9 million (55.0). As is evident above, the financial assets are categorised as loans receivable and accounts receivable to 99%. The financial liabilities are measured at accrued acquisition value. The Group does not have any liabilities with fixed interest and at year-end long-term receivables amounted to SEK 1.2 million (0.5), which is less than one percent of total assets. The risk of a shift in the interest rate causing a significant change in fair value is thus non-existent. The item cash and bank balance SEK 127
million (288), the overdraft item SEK 71.3 million (53.1) and other interest-bearing liabilities (finance leases) SEK 13.0 million (12.2) have variable interest rates and are thus marred by cash flow risks. Overdrafts apply for one (1) year and are not combined with any specific requirements from the guarantor. LIQUIDITY RISKS Liquidity risk relates to the risk that the Group will not be able to fulfil its obligations associated with financial liabilities. This is prevented whenever possible by ensuring an age structure that makes it possible to take any necessary alternative capital procurement measures should it be needed. Cash and bank balance at the end of the year was SEK 127 million (288) and financial current assets were SEK 261 million (206). The Group’s financial liabilities at the end of the year totalled SEK 266 million (223) and the age structure is presented in the table below.

INTEREST RISKS The interest risk is low. The Group does not have any liabilities with fixed interest, and longterm receivables with fixed interest are very small. The risk of a shift in the interest rate causing a significant change in fair value for the Group is thus non-existent. The cash and bank items, the overdraft item and other interestbearing liabilities (finance leases) are marred by cash flow risks. A one per cent change in interest would on the balance sheet date entail a change of SEK 0.4 million (2.2) in the profit.
Purchasing is split as a percentage as follows:
CURRENCY RISKS The currency risks are primarily due to purchases being made in foreign currency. The risks are managed by the customer contract often prescribing that the price must be adjusted in relation to any currency changes. Alternatively, the sale is carried out in the same currency as the purchase. A detailed report is given in connection with the below table. The currency flow of the Group is attributable to imports from Europe, Asia and North America.

As long as it is possible, the Group eliminates the effects of exchange rate fluctuations by
using currency clauses in the customer contract and by purchasing and selling in the same currency. On the whole, purchasing is carried out in the supplier’s functional currency. From the table above it can be seen that 21% (11) for USD, 53% (53) for EUR, 8% (12) for Yen and 5% (5) for GBP, 2% (7) for SEK and 11% (12) for other currencies are attributable to purchasing in 2007. The OEM Group manages the effects of changing exchange rates by currency clauses in the sales contract and by invoicing in the same currency as the corresponding purchase. OEM sells goods to Swedish and foreign customers and either invoices in the purchasing currency or in another currency with currency clauses with regard to the purchase currency. The currency clauses adjust 80-100% of the changes in the exchange rate from the sales order to the date of invoicing, depending on whether OEM receives currency compensation for the profit margin or not. There is often a threshold value, which means that exchange rate changes below 2.25% are not taken into account. Currency adjustments are made

symmetrically for rising and falling currency rates. There are no conditions that give debt ratios or that are similar to options. Currency clauses and sales in the purchasing currency make up about 71% (75) of all sales contracts. Where purchasing is based on sales orders, economic hedging of currency risks is achieved in sales and purchasing. However, in many cases there is a mismatch in timing between purchase orders and sales orders. Purchase orders normally run 7-60 days prior to delivery. The customer credit period is about 30 days. The currency adjustment clauses means that only currency changes between the time of sale and the time of invoicing affect the amount reported in Swedish Kronor. Since invoicing, in accordance with currency adjustment clauses, is carried out in SEK, there is no exchange rate difference after the date of invoicing. OEM applies the same terms and conditions for adjusting currencies and prices for its Swedish and overseas customers. The changes in values related to the currency clauses are therefore treated consistently from the points of view of risk and accounting. A ten per cent change in exchange rates for the EUR and USD would, using a simplified model, mean about SEK 80 million in change in earnings. With regard to currency risk, it can be determined that OEM also has balance exposures in the form of net investment in independent foreign operations. At present, these currency risks are not hedged.

CUSTOMER AND CREDIT RISKS The customer credit risks are small. Defined customer limits are carefully decided and strictly applied. Short credit periods and absence of risk concentrations for individual customers, segments or geographic areas contribute to a good risk picture, one that is confirmed by the small historical customer losses. The Group has approximately 22,000 purchasing customers in total. The largest individual customer accounted for approximately 4.5% (6.6) of sales. The five largest customers accounted for 9.9% (12.1) of sales and the ten largest customers accounted for 13.7% (15.8) of sales. The distribution of risk is thus very good. Customer losses during the year amounted to SEK 1.1 million (0.5), which corresponds to 0.07% (0.03) of sales. The average credit period rose to approximately 45 days.

Executive management has together with the chairman of the Board and the auditors discussed the developments, the choices and the information regarding the Group’s most important accounting principles and estimates, as well as the application of these principles and estimates. The recognised values for certain assets and liabilities are based in part on assessments and estimates. Executive management does not however find that the recognised assets and liabilities amount are associated with substantial risks mitigating the need to make significant adjustments over the course of next year. The presentation below discusses the areas that may mitigate significant adjustments, but where the risk that so will occur during the course of next year is not deemed significant.
Impairment test of goodwill In calculating the recoverable value of cashgenerating units for the company’s assessment if amortisation is required for goodwill, future circumstances and estimates of parameters have been assumed. An account of these is described in Note 15. The management is of the opinion that no reasonable changes in the key assumptions will lead to the estimated recoverable values for the units being lower than the reported values. Valuation other intangible fixed assets Other intangible fixed assets consist primarily of the values arising at acquisition, divided into SEK 8.8 million for supplier relations, SEK 6.6
million for customer relations and SEK 9.3 million for trademarks. Supplier relations have continued to develop positively, explaining the assessment that impairment is not necessary for 2007. Customer relations entail establishments on new markets and the assessment is that these will be written-down over a five-year period. 39 months remain of the amortisation period. Trademarks include the company name Klitsö which is well established on the Danish market in the sector of valve and pneumatic trading and the assessment is that this be written off over a five-year period.

We have examined the Annual Report, the consolidated financial statements, the accounting records and the administration of the Board of Directors and the Managing Director of OEM International AB (Publ.) for the financial year 2007. The Company’s Annual Report is included in the printed version of this document on pages 36-81. The Board of Directors and the Managing Director are responsible for the accounts and the administration of the Company, and for ensuring that the Swedish Annual Accounts Act is applied when preparing the Annual Report and for ensuring that the international accounting standards IFRS, as approved by the European Union, and the Annual Accounts Act are applied when preparing the consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Annual Report, the consolidated financial statements and the administration based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted accounting standards in Sweden, which meant that we planned and performed the audit to obtain reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the Annual Report and the consolidated financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining a selection of the documentation with respect to amounts and other information in the accounting records. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and their application by the Board of Directors and the Managing Director, as well as evaluating the important assessments made by the Board of Directors and the Managing Director when preparing the Annual Report and the consolidated financial statements, as well as appraising the overall presentation of information in the Annual Report and the consolidated financial statements. As a basis for our pronouncement on discharge from liability, we have examined significant decisions, actions taken and circumstances at the Company in order to determine the possible liability to the Company of any Board Member or the Managing Director. We have also examined the question of whether any Director or the Managing Director has otherwise acted in contravention of the Swedish Companies Act, the Swedish Annual Accounts Act or the Company’s Articles of Association. We are of the opinion that our

audit gives us reasonable grounds on which to pronounce as follows. The Annual Report has been prepared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and, consequently, provides a true picture of the Company’s income and position in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice in Sweden. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with international accounting standards IFRS, in line with the requirements of the European Union and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, and provide a true picture of the Group’s income and position. The Directors’ Report is consistent with the remainder of the Annual Report and the Consolidated Financial Statements. We recommend that the Annual General Meeting adopt the income statement and the balance sheet of the Parent Company and of the Group, appropriate the Parent Company’s surplus as proposed in the Directors’ Report and grant the Members of the Board and the Managing Director discharge from liability for the financial year.
