Roland Kasper, President and CEO, comments:
“With the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, the quarter started weakly in May, but June and July showed signs of recovery with good sales in both. Overall, sales development during the quarter was better than expected, but nevertheless decreased by 6.8 percent, of which 4.4 percent was negative organic growth. The gross margin narrowed slightly to 33.6 percent (34.0) as a result of lower capacity utilisation. Operating profit totalled SEK 182 million, or 8.7 percent, which was 1.0 percentage better than last year. Good ventilation reduces spread of infection, which has a positive effect on demand.”
