Arjo interim report January-March 2020

”We deliver a strong start to the year with an organic growth of 3,4%. We see clear results from our efficiency measures and our operating profit increases by over 20%, while at the same time having a solid financial position. The effects from the coronapandemic becomes clear at the end of the quarter with an increased demand for hospital beds and therapeutic mattresses, but also lower focus on products and services not directly addressing Covid-19,” says Joacim Lindoff, President & CEO. “We put an intense quarter behind us and I find it very satisfying that we can support healthcare during this challenging time. At the same time, we are facing increased uncertainty, making it difficult to assess the effects for the remaining part of the year,” adds Joacim Lindoff.
