"We had a solid second quarter with sales of SEK 9.5 billion (9.1) and an adjusted EBITA margin of 9.7 percent (9.7). Market conditions remain challenging but efforts across our business units are yielding results, with strong cash flow from operating activities and a sustained trend towards our 10 percent adjusted EBITA margin target. In addition, we further strengthened our balance sheet as we completed strategic divestments and extended the maturity profile of our debt portfolio", says Daniel Kaplan, CEO of Storskogen.
