CEO COMMENT

"An increasingly strong platform for future growth"
Lagercrantz sums up another successful financial year 2023/24. For the full-year, the operating profit (EBITA) increased by 19% to MSEK 1,431 and the EBITA margin strengthened by a further percentage point to a good 17.6%. Earnings per share thus reached SEK 4.25, an increase of 15% compared to the previous year and a new record level for the 14th consecutive year. In addition, cash flow from operating activities increased by 24% to MSEK 1,327 and we have completed nine exciting acquisitions, which add a good 16% in annual business volume with high margin content.
