Comment from President and CEO Bodil Sonesson:
"Performance during the quarter was weak. EBITA before items affecting comparability amounted to MSEK 130 (173), corresponding to a margin of 7.0% (8.6%). The EBITA margin thus stabilised at a level in line with the second quarter. Order intake weakened during the quarter and decreased organically by 13.8%. Activity in larger projects remained limited. Net sales amounted to MSEK 1,860 (2,027), with the decrease mainly attributable to lower order intake in previous quarters. Adjusted for currency effects and acquisitions, net sales decreased organically by 9.0%. Costs were MSEK 51 lower during the quarter, of which MSEK 25 was related to the MSEK 100 cost-saving programme, where further cost-saving activities are ongoing."
