The year began with continued strengthening of profitability and a clear step toward our long-term margin ambitions. Adjusted for restructuring costs, the EBITA margin amounted to 9.3 percent, driven by gradually improved utilization, cost control and continued positive performance in Finland. The EBITA marginal was 8.4 (8.3) percent and EBITA amounted to SEK 35.7 (35.6) million. Net sales for the first quarter amounted to SEK 425.8 (430.7) million, slightly below the previous year. Operating cash flow was affected by working capital effects related to larger engagements and amounted to SEK 10.8 (32.3) million. Diluted earnings per share were SEK 1.57 (1.75) and were negatively affected by currency effects compared with the corresponding quarter in the previous year.

In summary, we are taking clear steps forward in the first quarter of the year. We are combining improved profitability and organic growth across large parts of the business with active efforts to strengthen units that are not performing according to plan. We view developments in AI positively. It is already contributing to increased efficiency, both internally and in our customer engagements. Our strong domain expertise enables us to translate the technology into tangible, business-driven customer value.
