First-Quarter 2009 Highlights
In yesterday’s stock exchange notification, Norske Skog stated that the gross operating earnings in the first quarter of 2009 would be significantly weaker than in the fourth quarter of 2008, but somewhat better than in the first quarter of 2008. This is mainly due to low volumes in the beginning of 2009.
Ball Corporation (NYSE:BLL) today reported first quarter net earnings of $69.5 million, or 73 cents per diluted share, on sales of $1.59 billion, compared to $83.8 million, or 85 cents per diluted share, on sales of $1.74 billion in the first quarter of 2008.
