Lars Bering, CEO:

”I am pleased that we have continued to create strong growth at SP Group in these turbulent times, both in subsupplier orders and own products. Trade wars, tariffs and geopolitical unrest make it very difficult to predict activity in the coming months, as there is a risk that the uncertainty will cause customers to exercise restraint and postpone projects and orders. We are in close dialogue with our customers, and with our global production apparatus, we manufacture where it makes the most sense.”
