“The third quarter was yet another strong quarter for OMX. Operating income rose by 34 percent
compared with the year-earlier period. It is particularly gratifying that profit, excluding capital gains, also increased compared with the second quarter of 2007, since the third quarter is normally a seasonally weaker quarter. In addition, it is highly positive that all business areas contributed to the increase in earnings,” says Magnus Böcker, President and CEO of OMX.
