We will maintain this focus in the years ahead. However, if we are to be able to actively develop and support the different units in the Group, our portfolio cannot be too broad. More particularly, it must not be too heavily weighted towards capital-intensive activities. Orkla is therefore focusing the portfolio on a smaller number of businesses. By doing so, we will ensure that we have an adequate capital and resource base to aggressively develop the areas in which we have the best potential for long-term value creation. “Going forward, Orkla’s competitive edge will continue to lie in the combination of industrial and Bjørn M.

Orkla’s share investments have a dual objective. The investments must gener- ate a higher return than relevant benchmarks while simultaneously developing industrial options for the Group. Some investments will therefore be realised, such as XXL (15.5% inter- est sold in 2010), while others will expand Orkla’s range of industrial options, as with the purchase of Elkem back in 2005. In both cases, Orkla will focus on the businesses’ long-term value creation. Orkla will therefore be an active shareholder in REC (39.7% interest), with the ongoing objective of creating value for both Orkla’s and Bjørn M. Wiggen REC’s shareholders.
