somewhat weaker than in the other markets. In Russia, the rouble-denominated

Lindex showed good sales development and in local currencies Lindex’s sales were
up 9 per cent from June 2008. The euro-denominated sales of Lindex declined by
3.0 per cent, an increase of 9.6 per cent in Finland and a decline of 4.7 per
