Year-End Report 2019

Comments from CEO Bodil Sonesson:

  • The positive trend on organic order intake is pleasing to see, especially with the steady recovery in the UK compared to last year.
  • Here in Scandinavia we see a slight weakening of demand in the last quarter and we will monitor this very closely.
  • Where actions have been executed the performance improvement programme continues to benefit. 
  • In some businesses the results are still slow. We expect cost down actions  start to benefit in 3 months whilst sales & marketing improvements activities take between 6-9 months to see the start of the recovery.
  • Overall I am pleased with my first full 12 months in the Group, we have performed well in some challenging conditions.
  • The integration of iGuzzini goes according to plan, the long term benefits remain strong, but in the short term the business needs to close out the new ERP IT installation.
  • Looking forward to 2020 and beyond, growth is the number one focus and at the heart of the strategic alignment process, a process which is now fully communicated internally and we move to implementation and execution.
