CEO’S comments
“It is positive to report a Q2 with a growth in incoming orders measured both against Q2 2009 and Q1 2010. The trend towards an increased earnings capability is continuing thanks to the savings programmes introduced. The integration of Dantherm Filtration has entered an intensive phase and is proceeding according to plan.”
