Comments from CEO
We are pleased to see the good results in the quarter and half year for order intake and net sales, which delivered a strong increase in profitability.
Operating margins reached 11.3% for the quarter and 10.2% for the half year. This is a result of collective commitment and hard work from the teams in combination with a higher activity level on the market.
The high focus on sustainable solutions continue. During the quarter,
Fagerhult launched a new version of one of their best-selling products "Multilume Re:Think". In this new version the body of the luminaire is made from 100% recyclable cardboard, reducing climate impact by 83%.Connected solutions continue to grow, Organic Response volumes increased 60% for the first half year.
The work on together determining the Group's core values has reached its role out phase and now we start the journey to live them.
