A return to strong organic growth in the third quarter and promising performance improvements for Stendi.
CEO comment:
In the third quarter, the efforts carried out in Stendi showed results. Stendi is now standing on firmer ground and efforts to further improve the performance of the Norwegian operation have continued. At the same time, demand for elderly care was favourable in Sweden and Vardaga delivered strong growth in the third quarter. In line with our updated strategy, Klara divested its medical staffing area to focus on subscription services and specialised solutions instead, such as mobile teams and student health services. Following our strategic efforts with Klara during the year, we now see an opportunity for the division to play a stronger role in Ambea moving forward and to increase its contribution to the Group's performance.
