The acquisition of the retail cash handling operations from Cardtronics in the UK will positively impact growth in Europe. Our margin-enhancing activities, performed in accordance with the Loomis model, continue to yield results both in the USA and in Europe”, states Loomis President and CEO Jarl Dahlfors.
