19 Steady market deterioration since 2008 The printing & writing paper market, Arjowiggins main market segment in volume, has been deteriorating steadily since 2008 The printing & writing market has been structurally declining (internet, digital media) Volume drop ca. 8% per annum in Europe since 2008 The economic crisis has accelerated the decline in volumes and leads to a deterioration of our product mix and margins in the fine paper segment. Raw material prices (pulp, chemicals, energy) remain high, thereby pressuring margins Overcapacities on the market (15-20%) are causing strong pressures on selling prices The pace of volume decline has accelerated in 2013 Decline in volumes sharper than expected by the various market operators Expected decline of 2% to 5% per annum in printing & writing paper volumes 19
