President and CEO Rune Glavare presented PartnerTech's sales and
earnings
figures for 2009 and the first quarter of 2010. Despite challenges in
the
market, he noted that the company's performance, technology and service
offering
had improved over the past year, thereby increasing customer
value.
Restructuring into six market areas was providing customers with
greater
transparency and focus. As part of the effort to boost sales in Eastern
Europe,
a new plant is opening in Myslowice, Poland this spring. Both capacity
and
competitiveness will benefit as a result. Greater options for final
assembly,
service and distribution in the United States, along with the
geographic
location of the new Polish unit, will expand PartnerTech's range of
logistics
and after-sales services. He concluded by pointing out that the
company's
strategic direction and ongoing change processes are positioning it
well for the
future while supplying it with the capacity and flexibility it
needs to take on
challenges and exploit new opportunities.

Leif Thorwaldsson
took over as President and CEO of PartnerTech at the meeting.
He introduced
himself and said that improved competitiveness, higher
productivity and
additional technological expertise are particularly important
factors in
permitting PartnerTech to offer more attractive services to its
customers and
to achieve success.
