Interim Report January-March 2022 - Stronger margin

Report this content

EBITA improved to SEK 20.0 million (18.2) in the quarter, which equates to an EBITA margin of 8.0 percent (6.5). The improvement is driven by our focus on buildings, which has led to a higher utilisation rate, lower overheads and a more efficient organisation. Net revenue totalled SEK 250 million (282.0). The decline is an effect of our new strategic direction, which has involved divesting and discontinuing businesses.
