“We did see a gradual improvement month on month, even though the quarter was severely affected by the pandemic. Sales showed a positive trend, albeit from low levels, while the order intake remained weak. Looking ahead, there is however a significant uncertainty in the macro economic outlook not least due to the impact from the ongoing pandemic.” Stefan Syrén, President and CEO, Gunnebo

“During the quarter we have continued to focus on change processes for a stronger, more profitable Gunnebo that creates more value. Unfortunately, in August, Gunnebo discovered that an IT attack was carried out, which meant focus on customer dialogue and to further strengthening our IT environment. Gateway was divested, a result of the ongoing review of the business unit Other Business and The EverydaySafe™ innovation was also launched.” Stefan Syrén, President & CEO, Gunnebo.
