  • Operating result for the period before depreciations (EBITDA) totaled -12.9 (20.8) MSEK.

“After the fourth quarter of 2019, we are 7.6 % below in net sales compared to same period last year and 11.6 % below on orders received. As stated in the Q3 report, a major cause of this lag is orders being pushed forward and we continued to experience this in Q4 where multiple orders were being pushed into 2020. Our start to the first quarter is ahead of last year both from a net sales and order point of view and we see relevant progress on the delayed deals from last year,” says Göran Malmberg, CEO of Mentice AB (publ).
