“Cinnober is growing and the optimism in the market is tangible”, says Veronica Augustsson, CEO, in a comment. “The finance sector is on the verge of higher IT investments, which are being stimulated by extended regulations and higher efficiency requirements. The positive signals are reflected in net sales for the period reaching SEK 76.3 million, an increase of SEK 8.3 million compared with the corresponding quarter in 2015.
