Statement by Jens Bjerg Sørensen, President of Schouw & Co.
– Overall, the portfolio businesses had a solid first quarter of 2025, in particular when taking the global uncertainty and economic development into consideration. The current business environment is challenged in an unprecedented way and uncertainty, risks and unease of trade increases constantly. With this backdrop, I am very satisfied with the performance of Schouw & Co.
The business model in Schouw & Co. proves its value in times like this. A high share of our revenue is non-cyclical and with our highly diversified product offering and global geographical presence, Schouw & Co. is a steady performer in turbulent times. We are also exposed to the global changes but have a very strong and well-invested platform. We remain focused on seizing opportunities and utilising our financial strength and versatility to make long-term attractive investments.
