Oriola’s Q3 was broadly solid quarter. However, profitability remained at the comparison period’s level, weighed down by a one-off inventory impairment. On a positive note, Kronans Apotek continued to make progress towards improved performance.
Vi träffade bolaget för att prata om vad som ligger bakom målen om minst 5 procents årlig tillväxt, synen på Kronans Apotek samt hur vägen framåt ser ut.
Higher freight costs and increased operating expenses weighed on Oriola's earnings in Q2. Meanwhile, associate company Kronans improved its result compared with the corresponding period last year.
Oriolas Q2-rapport var operationellt sett något svagare än våra förväntningar, då företagets justerade EBITDA låg kvar på jämförelseperiodens nivå och var något lägre än våra estimat.
