- Operating profit for January-September 2024 amounted to SEK 3 005 million (January-September 2023: 4 041). The decrease in operating profit is due to lower paper prices and the positive impact of income from the sale of surplus electricity the previous year.
- Compared with the second quarter, operating profit for the third quarter increased by SEK 95 million to SEK 1 078 million. Earnings were positively impacted by higher volumes and seasonally lower costs in Board and Paper, but were negatively affected by lower selling prices in Wood Products and Renewable Energy. The operating margin was 19 per cent (17).
- Profit after tax for January-September amounted to SEK 2 304 million (3 159), which corresponds to earnings per share of SEK 14.5 (19.6).
- In the third quarter, own shares were bought back for SEK 442 million, equal to 0.6 per cent of outstanding shares.
