- Profit after net financial items amounted to SEK 4,953 (3,904) million. Profit after net financial items in the previous year was boosted by non-recurring gains of SEK 118 million:

“Overall, growth in demand has been good, but there are large variations between markets and product segments. Our strong position in the property refurbishment market as well as product segments focusing on sustainable energy solutions gives us a robust profile even in the current, weaker economic environment, which primarily affects new production of housing and related product segments,”said Gerteric Lindquist, Managing Director and CEO of NIBE.
“The improvement in the components supply chain that could be seen towards the end of the first half of the year continued in the third quarter, enabling us to bring our own delivery times back to normal levels.”
”The acquisitions completed in the period will also expand our market presence and give us new product offerings and good insights into new business models.”
”Even though it is difficult to make predictions in the current business climate, we are cautiously optimistic about our full-year performance in 2023 thanks to our geographic spread, our focus on energy efficiency and sustainability, as well as our stable profitability and good financial preparedness for further offensive acquisitions,” said Gerteric Lindquist.
