Comments from CEO Linda Pålsson:
"AFRY reported an improved EBITA margin and a positive development of the order backlog in the third quarter. This was achieved despite a decline in net sales due to a still challenging market in several segments and negative currency effects.
With the launch of our simplified Group structure, the third quarter marked a decisive step toward establishing a fit-for-purpose operating model aligned with AFRY's new strategic direction. We further intensified our work to improve utilization and structurally address our cost base. As part of this, we continued to execute on our restructuring agenda, and we reiterate our estimate of related costs in the range of SEK 200-300 million from the third quarter of 2025 to the second quarter of 2026.
While we are still in the initial stages of our execution journey, it is encouraging to see early indications of progress. I have great confidence in our strategic direction and look forward to sharing more details at AFRY's upcoming Capital Markets Day on November 4."
