Statement by the President and CEO

“For more than one year, we have deliberately downsized the operations with the aim of creating a more efficient and more profitable Rejlers that lets us achieve our full potential. During the first quarter, our sales stabilised and we noted a small growth. In parallel, we see a good development for earnings and margins all three segments, where we made major changes in the past year. With the launch of a new strategy and vision in the second quarter of the year, we are continuing to build the new Rejlers”, says Viktor Svensson, President and CEO, Rejlers AB.
