Fredrik Zöögling, CEO and President of ProfilGruppen, comments:

”In terms of volume the fourth quarter has meant a recovery to the previous year’s levels, but with lower prices. Considering the second wave of the pandemic hit us in Novbember it is a strong achievement by the organization to deliver at the requested level. Despite the effort we are not able to see the positive effect on the result, which is due to a continued unfavourable product mix.

We are working hard to secure additional volumes at higher margins, streamline our production and our internal processes.“
