EBIT adj. was EUR 3.9m (vs. ABGSCe 0.70m), for a margin of +8% (ABGSCe 1.9%). EBIT has been adjusted for a one-off of EUR 0.24m related to the relocation of Cavotec's registered office from Switzerland to Sweden. Industry showed improved margins, with an EBITDA margin of 16% (vs. ABGSCe 4.3%), thanks to the recently implemented change programmes.
