Kristofer Tonström, CEO and President: With strong sales across the range, we achieved an organic sales increase of 10 per cent in July. The development was good in all home markets and in other markets we doubled sales compared to the previous year, driven by both B2C and B2B in the various e-commerce channels under Spares. The total sales increase of 15 per cent was positively impacted by both acquisitions and currency effects from NOK. However, as previously communicated, the rapid fluctuations in NOK will have negative effects from currency hedging in the quarter compared to last year.
