CEO Comments
In September, we reached an important milestone in our 73-year history with a successful listing on Nasdaq Stockholm. We are proud of the great interest in the company, both from institutional investors and from the general public, and we would like to extend a warm welcome to all new shareholders.

We are continuing our active acquisition strategy, which during the third quarter resulted in a net revenue growth of 28%. The acquisition of Ralarsa in Spain was completed during the quarter, representing another important step in our continued expansion in Europe. In its first two months, the company had a strong start within Cary Group, which further strengthens our conviction that the acquisition is a perfect fit both from a strategic and operational standpoint. We completed four acquisitions during the quarter, together representing annual revenue of just over SEK 300 million. During the year we have made 15 acquisitions in total, with annual revenue of just over SEK 500 million.

We are constantly working to increase profitability at Cary Group by reviewing and improving our business and the operational efficiency of our workshops as well as realising synergies from our acquisitions. We are now able to intensify this work as pandemic-related restrictions are relaxed. The growth of our Rest of Europe business area also gives us opportunities for further economies of scale.

We operate in a non-cyclical market with good underlying growth. As pandemic related restrictions are being eased, we are positive of organic growth prospects. Acquisitions caters our market position and enables synergies and economies of scale. We are optimistic about the opportunities in our markets and to achieve our financial goals.
