Amer Sports announces changes in its Golf Business

To ensure positive results in its Golf business for 2008, Amer Sports
is announcing the following changes:

In the United States, Wilson will be closing its golf ball production
in Humboldt, Tennessee, on December 14, 2007. In the future all golf
ball production will be outsourced.

In Japan, Amer Sports Japan Inc. and Kasco Inc. have announced a
distribution agreement for the Wilson Golf business. Kasco will begin
to distribute and license Wilson Golf products as of January 1, 2008.

These reorganization measures will reduce in total approximately 100
staff positions and are expected to provide annual operating savings
of approximately 5 million US dollars per year. The one-time costs
are estimated to total 4 million US dollars.
