The Group's sales increased while income was affected by the ongoing transition in Denmark

Net sales totaled SEK 9,223 million (8,843), an increase of 2 percent (-8) in fixed currency for like-for-like units. Net sales increased mainly as a result of the growing parcel and logistics businesses.

Operating income totaled SEK 189 million (262). Adjusted operating income totaled SEK 239 million (291). The Group's income declined mainly as a result of the ongoing transition in Denmark, where the Danish mail business was discontinued at the end of 2025, which has resulted in lost synergies in Denmark between the parcel business and the previous mail business. The focus is now on the long-term process of transition in the parcel business and to offer Danish customers and consumers the best parcel offering on the market.

At the same time, the majority of our other operating segments improved their performance in the quarter. This provides clear confirmation that our focused efforts are delivering results and that we are continuing to take important steps in the transformation to becoming the leading parcel and logistics operator in the Nordic region.

Continued investments to further strenghen our position in the parcel market

We continue to invest in capacity, technology and customer-oriented solutions to strengthen our competitiveness. An important example of how we are further developing our Nordic network is the new and modern parcel terminal that is to be established in Timrå, just north of Sundsvall, northern Sweden. The plan is for the terminal to be operational in 2028. It will serve as an important hub in boosting our delivery capacity, growth and presence in northern Sweden. We are also continuing to expand our Nordic parcel locker network. The overall aim of these investments is to continue building a competitive Nordic parcel offering.

Changed Postal Ordinance in Sweden provides more favorable conditions for mail business

Sweden’s government has approved an changed Postal Ordinance, effective June 16, 2026. An adjustment to the required delivery time for mail, for example, allows PostNord an extra day for delivering letters in Sweden. The decision enables us to continue adjusting deliveries and services in response to actual demand, and to offer a widely-available and self-financed postal service throughout the country. In Sweden, we are focusing on ensuring a long-term sustainable and profitable mail business, while providing scope for the continued development of our growing parcel and logistics businesses.

Climate transition continues to progress

Our climate transition continues with unabated momentum. To achieve our goals, we are investing in fossil-free transportation with a focus on electrification, while biofuels are playing an important role during the transition period. The work is taking place within the framework of our green transition program Green by PostNord, with the ambition of achieving net zero emissions in the value chain by 2040.
