Report this content

“Ework continued to progress as planned in the second quarter. Again, sales and order intake were in healthy growth, and our EBIT improved year on year. Growth is still being driven by very high client demand. We have reached the final stage of an investment phase that we expect to make a progressive positive contribution to our earnings performance.”
