Outlook

The outlook remains unchanged, meaning that Ework anticipates that demand will gradually strengthen, and we will thus be able to show growth in late 2024. A limited decrease in sales year-on-year remains the forecast for the full-year 2024. In line with our financial targets, we retain our previous assessment that operating profit (EBIT) and earnings per share will increase at least 30 percent for the full-year 2024.
