That’s some heroic spin from our man Jorgen. See this:

    The result after tax for the year was DKK -1,931m compared with DKK -935m
    in 2003.

Obviously, all the cost-cutting is good news, and once they unload the parks they’ll be in much better shape. But it ain’t happened yet.

Forbes has a less positive spin than the TLC press release:

  Struggling Danish toy maker Lego Systems A/S Wednesday said its full-year
  net loss more than doubled as sales fell.

  The net loss for 2004 was 1.93 billion kroner, or about $333 million, a
  widening from last year’s loss of 935 million kroner.
