VALBY, Denmark, May 8, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- Carlsberg A/S (Other OTC:CABHF):

Difficult market conditions during off-season 


 -- The beer volume is at level with last year but the Carlsberg
    brand experienced an increase of just over 5%.

 -- Net revenue totalled DKK 6,855m against DKK 7,572m last year.

 -- Operating profit (EBITA) amounted to DKK 18m against DKK 440m
    last year.

 -- Profit before amortisation and write-down of goodwill
    totalled a negative DKK 112m against DKK 172m last year.

 -- Expectations to Carlsberg A/S' and Carlsberg Breweries A/S'
    share of profit for the year remain unchanged, as reduced
    expectations to operating profit in Carlsberg Breweries are
    compensated by lower financial expenses and lower tax rate.
