FRANKFURT (AFX) - Altana AG expects annual organic growth rates of 6 pct following the sale of its pharma operations, future group CEO and current Altana Chemie head Matthias Wolfgruber told Financial Times Deutschland.Not taking possible acquisitions into account, sales and profit are expected to increase by about 6 pct this year, Wolfgruber said, adding that in the future sales are seen increasing by 10 pct annually.Wolfgruber also said, should the US SEC amend its rules, and allow companies with a US trading volume of less than 5 pct of the volume on the company's home market to de-register from US stock exchanges, it will do so immediately.Altana sold its pharmaceutical operations to Danish company Nycomed Holding AS last year.newsdesk@afxnews.comjcs/jfrCOPYRIGHTCopyright AFX News Limited 2006.
