"I am pleased and proud to be CEO of Dustin since April, after 14 years as CFO. During the third quarter we faced a challenging market dominated by macroeconomic concerns and a distinctly cautious trend for several of our customer groups. Through our strong position and price discipline together with an improved product mix, we have strengthened the gross margin in the quarter, despite lower sales. The adjusted EBITA margin fell slightly due to lower volumes and continuing cost inflation. Cash flow was strong and tied-up working capital decreased through the continued reduction in inventory. We focus our work on cutting our costs and compensating for high inflationary pressure. Dustin holds a strong market position and our business acumen, entrepreneurial spirit and culture remain as strong as ever. Together with all my colleagues, I am looking forward to further developing the operations", says Johan Karlsson, President and CEO at Dustin.
