Norske Skog in Q1 2010: Weak results characterised by low prices and higher input factor costs

Thursday 06. May 2010 - Norske Skog reported gross operating earnings (EBITDA) of NOK 275 million in the first quarter of 2010, down from NOK 472 million in the previous quarter and NOK 504 million in the first quarter of 2009.
