  the previous year.
• Operating earnings (EBIT) totaled SEK 62 (36) million, equating to an operating margin of 8.0% (4.3).
• Earnings after tax amounted to SEK 38 (16) million.
• Cash flow from operating activities totaled SEK 26 (13) million.

“The second quarter was characterized by continued improvement in profitability and resilient margins, despite lower volumes in parts of the market. At the same time, Bulten took a decisive step in its transformation through agreements to divest its contract manufacturing operations within the automotive industry in Europe and China. Overall, we enter the next phase with a more focused portfolio, a stable financial position and growing opportunities to scale established businesses within precision manufacturing and full-service C-parts solutions.”, says Axel Berntsson, President and CEO.

A live presentation for analysts, media and investors will be held today, at 11:00 AM CEST, during which President and CEO Axel Berntsson and CFO Anna Åkerblad will comment on the results. The presentation will be held in English and will include a Q&A session.
