  • Profit after tax amounted to SEK 42 million (51).
  • Earnings per share totalled SEK 0.80 (0.98).
  • Cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK 67 million (209).

Roland Kasper, President and CEO, comments:
"Over the third quarter, organic growth amounted to 4.0 percent. Growth was good in most of Western Europe, Slovakia, Canada and Russia. Profits for the quarter were somewhat a disappointment and impacted by larger project deliveries with low margins and non-recurring items in connection with continued restructuring. Non-recurring items for the quarter totalled SEK 21 million. Adjusted operating profit totalled SEK 88 million, as against SEK 105 million in the same quarter last year."
