Pergo Applies for Delisting, Sets 1Q Report Date

Trelleborg, Sweden, March 9, 2007--Pergo AB said today that its Board of Directors has decided to apply to the Stockholm Stock Exchange for the delisting of its shares, with the last trading date to be as soon as possible.

 

This follows a request from Pfleiderer Sweden AB (“Pfleiderer”), which now owns 51,908,083 Pergo shares following the first settlement of its recommended public cash offer for Pergo’s issued and outstanding share capital.

 

The holding is equivalent to 96.9% of Pergo’s shares and voting rights.

 

The Board of Directors noted in its application that recent trading in the stock has been sporadic, and that Pfleiderer has initiated proceedings in respect of the compulsory redemption of the outstanding shares from the remaining Pergo shareholders.

 

A notice regarding this procedure will be published in ‘Post-och Inrikes Tidningar’ and ‘Svenska Dagbladet’ as soon as possible.

 

In connection with the ongoing offer, Pergo has also today announced that the date for the announcement of its financial results for the first quarter ending March 31, 2007 has been changed from April 27, 2007 to May 9, 2007.
