Roland Kasper, President and CEO, comments:
"In the fourth quarter, growth totalled 14.9 percent, 6.8 percent organic. Over the whole year, growth increased 12.3 percent, 7.7 percent organic. In view of the caution prevailing in many markets, this may be seen as a good performance. Operating profit in the quarter landed below anticipation, partly because of a series of non-recurring items. Adjusted operating profit for the quarter amounted to SEK 67 million, as against SEK 62 million in the same quarter last year. Restructuring costs in the quarter totalled SEK 19 million. Adjusted profit for the whole year increased to SEK 484 million, from SEK 354 million in the preceding year."
