WHAT IS THE OUTLOOK<br />
FOR GROUPE <strong>SEB</strong> IN 2008?<br />
INTERVIEW WITH THE CHAIRMAN<br />
Last year was a remarkable year. Despite uncertainties<br />
surrounding raw materials prices and exchange rates,<br />
and fears of a slowdown in consumer demand, I am confident<br />
in our ability to generate organic growth in 2008<br />
through our presence in emerging markets, and by geographically<br />
extending <strong>the</strong> success of last year’s top performing<br />
products with strong marketing and advertising<br />
support. Beyond actual sales figures, we are also aiming<br />
in 2008 for a fur<strong>the</strong>r improvement in <strong>the</strong> operating margin<br />
and continued lowering of debt for constant structure.<br />
With <strong>the</strong>se goals and <strong>the</strong> task of integrating Supor, 2008<br />
promises to be a busy year.<br />
