Interim report Q2: We see a number of signs that the worst is now behind us

April – June 2024

  • Net sales decreased by 5% and amounted to SEK 858 (907) million
  • Organic growth amounted to -6 (-10) %
  • Adjusted EBIT amounted to SEK 48 (74) million with a margin of 5.6 (8.2) %
  • Cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK 35 (101) million
  • Earnings per share for the period before and after dilution amounted to SEK 0.47 (0.72)

– Rock Sweden continues to perform well, but the low new housing construction negatively impacts the Foundation Sweden segment. In Norway, we experienced a weaker market than expected in the second quarter, which, along with Foundation Sweden, explains the reduced turnover and lower margin for the quarter. However, we see a good underlying demand for our services and several indicators suggest that the worst is behind us. It's also encouraging that the implemented and initiated activities to restructure and concentrate our operations, as well as adjust our cost base, are yielding the desired results, says Andreas Christoffersson, CEO Nordisk Bergteknik AB.
