CEO comments:

During the second quarter the market conditions have remained stable in our principal markets and there are no signs of a reduced demand for our services.

We have seen a certain upturn in the segment oil and gas which has stabilised the Norwegian market. The large postal operators have continued to focus on unit cost reductions in volume-driven package flows, which has created an opportunity for us to further develop our express services which have great earning potentials. However, the major industrial operators, including the automotive industry, are still looking for cost-effective solutions which adds a certain amount of pressure to the margins of the Express Systemized segment.

Commercial initiatives and a favourable development in the Express Ad-hoc segment has ensured an EBITA margin of 11.4% (10.9%). The improved margin is driven by growth in the Express Ad-hoc segment and in particular for our Jetpak Direct service. Completed campaigns for consumer discretionary customers and new customers’ general Ad-hoc needs as well as a targeted campaign for the healthcare sector have produced results.

Revenue development remains at the expected level of 4.1%. The total growth is primarily driven by our acquisition in Belgium, which is progressing entirely as planned. The underlying organic growth (0.6%) decreased during the second quarter. Efforts to optimise the profitability has resulted in reduced revenue from customers primarily in our Express Systemized segment. Our long-term growth targets remain unchanged since we have a strong sales pipeline which includes potential new orders as well as the impact of already signed but not yet activated agreements.

Our commercial initiatives have continued according to plan and we still have a strong focus on developing both the Ad-hoc and the Systemized segment through solutions sales and industry vertical expertise. New partnerships and supplier concepts are being prepared, which will potentially further improve our market position and our services in combination with an improved margin.

Following our successful acquisition and integration of Jetpak Belgium we are now exploring new potential acquisition targets in Europe and the Nordic countries, although we are still at the initial stage.

Based on our progress during the first six months of 2019 we expect to continue on our “journey” towards our long-term targets.
