The full 2008 SAS Group Annual Report is now available as a .pdf file on the Internet, www.sasgroup.net under Investor Relations/Reports and presentations/Annual reports and a printed version will be distributed to shareholders and other stakeholders.

Proposal regarding dividends

The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that no dividends be paid to SAS AB’s shareholders for the 2008 fiscal year. The reasoning behind this proposal is the weak financial position and cash flow of the SAS Group, which is why it is essential to have financial scope at our disposal to manage future restructuring and investments.
