STOCKHOLM, Oct. 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ --

Strong operating cash flow and operating margin (EBITA%)

We had a strong performance in the third quarter. Revenues reached SEK 7.6 billion with an organic growth of 3.9 percent. Acquisitions contributed to growth while the strengthening of the SEK had a materially negative impact on revenue for all segments. The business mix, along with higher efficiency, resulted in an increased operating margin (EBITA) of 13.2 percent (12.9), with an operating income (EBITA) of above SEK 1 billion. We had a strong operating cash flow, which was close to SEK 1 billion for the quarter. Over the latest twelve months, our cash flow from operating activities in relation to operating income (EBITA) was 95 percent.
