Comments from the CEO
The first quarter of this year showed a continuation of the growing volumes we delivered during the fourth quarter of last year. Despite a turbulent global environment, we have increased the volumes within our largest end customer segments. The result continues to be weighed down primarily by a strong Swedish currency and by the price and product mix development. As previously communicated, we now start to report three business areas, instead of two as previously done.
