Comments from the CEO

"In the first quarter of 2025, we have continued to pursue sales and product initiatives where we see potential, while at the same time balancing investments with good cost control."

"During the quarter, for example, we launched ReCare, our full-service solution for workwear, in Sweden… ReCare opens the way for important new sales opportunities and it is pleasing to see that the service has been well received by those customers who have trialled it."

"As we continue to await the overdue upturn in the market, we have implemented further cost reductions during the first quarter. These measures will have a gradual effect from mid-year 2025 onwards."

"Sales are now our single most important focus during 2025. In order to achieve even greater reach with our offering to new and existing customers, we are pursuing new sales and marketing initiatives."
