Comments from the CEO
"After six quarters of weakened profits as a consequence of the market downturn, bucking the trend with a positive earnings performance during the third quarter is a very welcome development."
"We consider the improved profitability to be evidence that we are making the right investments and implementing the right measures and that they are delivering results."
"Reducing our inventories is still a priority but this needs to be balanced against demand for our own brands and must not impact on our opportunities for profitable growth."
"Hopefully, we are now reaching the end of a protracted recession, and after 12 years with the Group it feels like the right time to hand on the role of CEO over the coming year."
