Autoliv Inc (ALV) SEC Filing 10-K Annual report for the fiscal year ending Monday, December 31, 2012

Exhibit 99.1

Financial Report

October – December 2012

(Stockholm, Jan. 31, 2013) – For the three-month period ended December 31, 2012, Autoliv, Inc. (NYSE: ALV and SSE: ALIV.Sdb) – the worldwide leader in automotive safety systems – reported an operating margin, excluding costs for capacity alignments and antitrust investigations, of 9.4% compared to our guidance of “around 9%”. On the same basis, operating income amounted to $193 million.

Consolidated sales hit a new fourth quarter record of $2,052 million and organic sales grew by 1.5%, in line with our guidance. Operating income amounted to $174 million with an operating margin of 8.5%, which includes costs for the antitrust investigations and capacity alignments totaling $19 million. Income before taxes amounted to $170 million, net income to $140 million and earnings per share assuming dilution to $1.45.

Cash flow from operations amounted to $241 million and to $141 million before financing.

For the first quarter of 2013, we expect consolidated sales to decline by 4%, due to a similar decline in organic sales resulting from the depressed light vehicle production in Western Europe, while the indication for the full year is a consolidated sales increase of 2-4%, primarily due to a 1-3% increase in organic sales. An operating margin of around 8% is expected for the first quarter, while the indication for the full year is a margin of around 9%. Both margin forecasts are excluding costs for capacity alignments and antitrust investigations. Capacity alignment costs for 2013 are expected to reach at least $25 million but not to exceed $50 million.
