1) Year-end closing price / earnings per share before
extraordinary expense
2) Year-end closing price / cash flow per share
3) Cash flow from operating activities
4) Source: Thomson Financials
5) Prior-period amount restated due to a change
in the basis for calculation
6) Per day
7) Profit from ordinary activities / average equity
8) The Board of Management intends to propose
this dividend to the Annual General Meeting
9) Based on consolidated net profit
