Sales of SEK 40 million correspond to a growth of 26 percent, which is mainly driven by continued strong development within the business area Performance Chemical.

Following the announcement of the quarterly result, Nexam Chemical will prepare a supplementary prospectus and extends the subscription period in the ongoing rights issue until Thursday, April 2, 2020.

It is extremely positive that during the current turbulence due to the corona virus we can show the strongest quarter in Nexam Chemical's history. Not only do we show the highest sales, but we also achieve a positive EBITDA, which indicates that we are on the right track towards establishing ourselves as a profitable growth company. The strongest driving force behind our growth is the strong demand in the wind power industry, where we received important orders from China during the quarter and entered into a significant supply agreement with Diab, our largest customer. Although there is great uncertainty in the world, we still year to date have well-functioning business and we continue to see strong, long-term growth opportunities for the company, says Johan Arvidsson, CEO of Nexam Chemical.
