Gerald Engström, CEO and president comments:

" Organic growth has revived, and profitability has improved, so the second quarter was satisfactory. However, we are not completely pleased, as growth is uneven and has not returned to all markets. We also see potential for improvement in several companies in the Group where we are not satisfied with the results achieved."
