CEO Krister Blomgren comments:
“engcon posted a strong third quarter with increased net sales and an improved operating profit. Sales continue to rise and the order intake amounted to SEK 367 million (347), an organic increase of 8 per cent. Net sales amounted to SEK 412 million (391) and increased organically by 8 per cent.

Europe is the engine of our growth and continued strong demand in the region provided organic order growth of 39 per cent. In the Nordic region, the order intake remains at the same level as the previous year. Demand remains low and even if customers are needing to replace their vehicle fleets, factors such as high interest rates have led to cautious purchasing behaviour.

The gross margin improved considerably and amounted to 46 per cent (40) for the quarter, and was primarily a result of a strong market and product mix. Operating profit amounted to SEK 91 million (55), corresponding to an operating margin of 22 per cent (14). The strong performance in the quarter was the result of the high gross margin and lower selling costs.

The quarter demonstrated that our scalable and capital-efficient business model can generate strong earnings despite relatively low volumes. At the same time, we are well prepared to meet increased demand. Our efforts to change the world of digging together are continuing every single day across the entire world.”
