Kristofer Tonström, CEO and President: We have continued our positive sales trend and increased organic sales by 10 per cent in June compared with the previous year. Performance was good in all Nordic home markets, with particular strong growth in Norway, where the organic sales increase amounted to 16 per cent. Challenges related to the USD continued to negatively impact Spares' B2B business, contributing to a weaker performance in other markets.

We are continuing to work on creating sustainable and profitable growth. In the near term, this means offering our customers products and a customer meeting that makes us relevant this summer, before we look ahead to the rest of the year.
