Growth &
Technology
•
•
… every single detail …
Revenue growth of 22.1% yoy in 9M 2008 on the back of higher production output
and annual growth in material prices
EBITDA up by 0.8% yoy in 9M 2008 and by 4.7% yoy in Q3 2008
Profitability was mostly affected by CZK development, volatility of polymer price
indices and higher stock levels related to a lower demand for technical materials
High net profit of EUR 23.5 million in 9M 2008 mainly due to unrealized FX gains
and lower interest expenses
Steady net debt levels after the dividend pay-out and financial stability
The polymer price decline should positively impact EBITDA in Q4 2008
Higher stock levels of finished products due to demand decline from the
construction industry should continue also for the rest of this year
Negotiations with customers for 2009 to-date are satisfactory in terms of committed
volumes
Finalisation of investment incentives conditions related to the possible
construction of the next production line
PEGAS will continue monitoring M&A opportunities
Commercialisation of new R&D projects and anticipated launch of pilot equipment
for plasma treated nonwovens

2008 Guidance
• The achieved results in the first nine months of 2008 indicate a strong
position of the Company in its core market and an outstanding
performance in a highly volatile financial and economic environment
• Number
of unforeseen developments had negative impacts on the
financial performance to date - lower demand for technical materials,
unexpected appreciation of the CZK and extreme polymer price
volatility in 2008
• In Q4 2008 the Company will benefit from the decline in polymer prices
• EBITDA for the full year is expected to exceed the one achieved in 2007,
however the communicated guidance range might not be met
… every single detail …

2009 Outlook
• Negotiations
with customers to-date for 2009 indicate that production
capacity should be sold out
• Level of inventories should decline in Q2 and Q3 2009
• Anticipated further debt repayment to improve leverage
if no other
investment opportunities materialize
• Rising operating costs and lower demand for technical materials leading
to more competition in hygienic segment
• Tailormade R&D projects to satisfy needs of key customers
