"In the second quarter, net sales reached SEK 9,243 million (9,462). Adjusted EBITA was SEK 894 million (922), with an adjusted EBITA margin of 9.7 percent (9.7). Cash flow, organic profit growth and profitability remain our top priorities. In the quarter, this was reflected in a cash conversion rate of 101 percent (LTM) and an EBITA margin in line with last year. Once we start to deliver organic profit growth consistently and reduce our leverage ratio, Storskogen will be able to return to a normalised state, allowing us to allocate capital to achieve both organic and acquired profit growth", says Christer Hansson, CEO of Storskogen.
