Interim Report January – September 2015
THIRD QUARTER 2015Sales increased by 5% compared to the same period last year. Normally, flooding or other weather events during the summer and early autumn boost sales in the third quarter, which was not the case in 2015. An increase in fire and large loss damage, in addition to last year’s gain of major contracts in the UK, compensated for the slow growth in water damage. Order intake in the third quarter was 1% below last year, which included flooding in Germany, the UK, Sweden and Denmark. · Operating profit before amortisation and non-recurring items (EBITA before NRI) amounted
