Beijer Ref
Solid start to the year with good profitability and positive cash flow
"The group's total sales during the quarter amounted to SEK 7,680 million, which is an increase of 4 per cent compared with the same period last year. EBITA amounted to SEK 733 million, which is an increase of 4 per cent compared with the same period last year. The EBITA margin was in line with the same period last year and amounted to 9.5 per cent. The quarter was affected by high comparative figures and two fewer trading days. Organic sales amounted to -4 per cent (+15%), mainly related to negative growth in HVAC of 7 per cent (+17%). Despite high comparative figures, OEM reported good organic growth of 9 per cent (+24%). Commercial and industrial refrigeration had a slight negative organic growth of 3 per cent (+10%). Towards the end of the quarter, we noted a normalization of the high comparative figures. A controlled inventory build-up, adapted to seasonal variations, contributed to a strong operational cash flow of SEK 582 million," says CEO Christopher Norbye.
