Dovre Group's refined guidance for 2014

Dovre Group Plc´s Board of Directors has decided to refine the guidance for
2014. 

The refined guidance is: In 2014 Dovre Group Plc´s net sales will be MEUR
95-105 and operating result MEUR 1,0-2,0. 

Previous guidance (24 April 2014) was: In 2014, net sales are expected to grow
and operating result to improve in local currencies from 2013. 

In 2013, Dovre Group's net sales were EUR 98.5 million and operating result EUR
2.4 million. In 2014 operating result in euros is expected to decrease from
previous year. This is mainly due to a rapid weakening of the Norwegian market
in the beginning of this year, lower margins in Canada compared to the previous
year, strategic investment in future growth - especially in the development of
Dovre Club -service platform and sales team- as well as currency changes and
extraordinary items. 

The growth investments are expected to improve net sales and operating profit
during the next 12 months. In the second half of 2014 net sales and operating
result is expected to grow compared to the first half. 

Dovre Group's interim report for January 1 - June 30, 2014 will be released on
Thursday July 24, 2014.
