Read and translate an extract from CEO’s report to the shareholders.

Dear Shareholders,

Your company can look back on a year of unprecedental success, in which we far surpassed our ambitions goals.

Heading the list of outstanding achievements was the record result of EUR 3.4 billion in net income after taxes, an increase of more than 80 percent over the previous year. Dramatic growth was a further highlight of the year. New orders rose by 20 percent and sales climed by 14 percent. As a result we are increasing the dividend from EUR 1.00 to EUR 1.40 and we are distributing an extra dividend of EUR 1.00 per share. In addition we are offering our shareholders a one-time oppotunity to buy shares at a 50-percent discount to market value.
