Allerød, 2016-05-27 07:56 CEST (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Board of Directors of Matas has today adopted the annual report for 1 April 2015 - 31 March 2016.

Terje List, CEO: "2015/16 and especially Q4 showed a challenging sales development for Matas. It is therefore positive that the weak finish to the financial year in especially March was more than offset by a good start to the new financial year, leading to the two months of March and April showing positive sales growth combined. Despite the difficult conditions, we maintained revenue, earnings and cash flow at high level, leading us to plan to initiate an increased share buy back program as early as Q2 2016/17. With the development of a number of new strategic initiatives, of which some will be implemented in the first half of 2016/17, we view positively on growth opportunities for 2016/17."
