Interim Report January-September 2022 - Continued improvements in two of our three segments

During the quarter, we continued to build our culture and met a lot internally, which is important investments for the future. Two of our three segments reported organic growth, improved EBITA and margins. The development in parts of the Systems segment remained weak during the quarter and the EBITA result is negative. Net revenue for the quarter totalled SEK 181 million (194). The decrease is due to PE’s efficiency improvements in 2021, involving the divestment and discontinuation of operations, and low number of hours worked in August. EBITA totalled SEK –5.3 million (0.9), which equates to an EBITA margin of –2.9 percent (0.5).
