of any discrepancies between the Swedish report and this English
translation, the Swedish version shall prevail.
At the meeting, Tom Erixon, Alfa Laval’s President and CEO,
talked about the company’s development last year, a year affected
by a decline in the oil and gas industry, following a low oil
price, as well as a decline in ship contracting. Alfa Laval’s order
intake still remained unchanged while sales rose 13 percent and
earnings per share by a full 30 percent. Strong cash flows
contributed to lowering the indebtedness.
The income statements and balance sheets were adopted, together
with the Board’s proposal for distribution of surplus. The proposed
dividend of SEK 4:25 per share was approved. The AGM also approved
discharge from liability for the members of the Board of Directors
and the Managing Director.
It was resolved that the number of members of the Board of
Directors shall be eight, with no deputies. As Board members
Gunilla Berg, Ulla Litzén, Anders Narvinger, Arne Frank, Finn
Rausing, J�rn Rausing, Ulf Wiinberg and Margareth Øvrum were
re-elected. Anders Narvinger was appointed Chairman of the Board.

Furthermore, it was resolved that the number of auditors shall
be two, as shall the number of deputy auditors. The Nomination
Committee’s proposal regarding auditors was also adopted.

while authorized public accountant Joakim Thilstedt was newly
elected as ordinary auditors for the coming year. The authorized
public accountants David Olow and Duane Swanson were re-elected

proposal. Remuneration amounts to SEK 5,105,000, an increase from
SEK 4,850,000 in 2015. Additional remuneration will be paid for
