Kåre Wetterberg, acting CEO of ProfilGruppen, comments:

"The demand on the domestic market during forth quarter continued weak, which was compensated with increased sales on the export market. Parts of these sales were made to margin pressure that negatively affected the earnings for the quarter. Our long term work on the market side, with extra focus on Sweden, continues and beginning to show result in form of new customers. A highlight for the company is the order to Volvo Cars, which we recently announced.”
