CEO comment, Per-Johan Dahlgren
“We continued to expand our industrial group at the start of the year. We have completed the acquisition of six new companies so far this year. In total, our forma sales are SEK 1,652 million over the past twelve months with EBITDA of SEK 232 million. We will continue to carefully select companies and focus on quality rather than quantity. At the same time, we are accumulating expertise and capacity to ensure that we are a good owner that creates long-term value even after the acquisition.“
Outlook for 2022
Our operations are naturally not unaffected by the tragic geopolitical situation in the world around us. However, I am confident that our decentralised model – whereby our entrepreneurs with their distinct niche positions constantly keep their ears to the ground, are agile and quick to readjust and to find creative solutions – means we are well prepared to also manage these challenges.
