Statistics Lithuania informs that GDP, estimated based on available statistical data and econometric models, in 2010 amounted to LTL 93 939 million at current prices and, compared to 2009, grew by 1.3 per cent (the changes have been estimated using a chain-linked volume of the added value). 

In 2010, a growth in the gross value added was observed in industry and energy (by 5.7 per cent) and trade, transport and communication (by 3.1 per cent). The largest decrease in the gross value added was observed in construction (by 8.6 per cent) and agriculture, forestry and fishing (by 3.1 per cent). A smaller decrease in the gross value added was observed in public administration and defence, education, health care and social work (1.9 per cent). 

In IV quarter 2010, GDP amounted to LTL 24 538 million at current prices and, compared to IV quarter 2009, grew by 4.6 per cent. Such a rapid growth in the added value was conditioned by particularly good results for industry; it was also, to a considerable extent, influenced by a growth in the added value of transport and storage.
