Third quarter 2016
Maintained margins despite declining sales – continuous improvements and cost control in focus
“In the third quarter, profitability improved slightly as better underlying performance offset the impact from lower volumes. Sales decreased by 6% to SEK 69 billion. The adjusted operating income amounted to SEK 4.8 billion, corresponding to an operating margin of 7.0% due to a positive cost development and a strong European truck market,” says Martin Lundstedt, President and CEO.
