Fourth quarter

Top line development
  Product mix; continues to have a positive impact
  Market volumes; flat year-over-year
  Electrolux volumes; still impacted from exiting low-profit business in NA
  Price pressure; temporary price cuts driven by promotion in NA
Cost development
  Cost savings; positive impact from the restructuring program
  Raw-material prices; still a negative year-over-year effect
  Increased marketing and brand spend

Take into account
  Similar seasonal pattern as last year; slightly weaker Q4


                                                                        16
Full year 2010




        …one quarter remains, and I am
        confident that 2010 will be the year
        we reach our target of an
        operating margin of 6%.
