“2012 has in many ways been a challenging year for Peab. The year has been characterized by a high level of production at the same time as profitability has been weak. On top of that demand on the Nordic construction market has declined during the second half of the year. Right now our main focus is on energetically resolving the profitability problems we have in Construction and continue the review of the Peab group’s costs, says Peab’s CEO and President, Jan Johansson.
