Roland Kasper, President and CEO, comments:
"The third quarter was characterised by weak development in several markets. Sales fell by 1 percent organically, but incoming orders were strengthened by a number of major projects. We are working intensively on the launch of new products within several applications to ensure future growth. Reduced volumes affect profitability. Operating margin totalled 2.1 percent, compared to 3.8 percent in the same quarter of the previous year. A number of efficiency activities and restructuring projects have been initiated, including at Menerga in Germany with annual saving of around SEK 12 million at an on-off cost of SEK 10 million."
