RNS Number:9866L Kvaerner ASA 23 October 2001 Kvaerner sees increased provisions and write-down of asset values LONDON, 23 OCTOBER 2001: The Board and management of Kvaerner are currently conducting a thorough review of the Group's performance and results. In this connection, a detailed assessment is being undertaken of the book value of the Group's investments and financial assets to provide necessary input to the documentation being prepared for the proposed Rights Issue. Further to what the Board has previously said about deteriorating results in E&C and Pulp & Paper in the third quarter, the Board has determined in its meeting on 22 October, that it would be appropriate to increase provisions made in the second quarter for previously announced disputed projects in E&C. The additional provision is expected to be in the range of NOK 450 million. The Board also expects that it will be prudent to write-down the book value of some items in the Group's balance sheet related to investments made in the period from 1995 to 1998. The Board has not yet been provided with all the necessary information to determine which items are to be affected, or the total amount of write-downs to be made, but it anticipates that these will be substantial. The final amount will be announced at the presentation of the Group's third quarter results on 1 November this year. Write-downs and provisions will have an accounting effect in the third quarter, but will not have a cash effect that will impact on the Group's short-term liquidity position.
