In the first nine months of the year, gross profit grew by 50%, while EBIT before special items grew 75% and adjusted free cash flow more than quadrupled compared to the same period last year. 

We are very pleased to report a strong set of results for Q3 2022 and for the first nine months of the year. All three divisions continued the good performance with growth in earnings and market share gains across most of our business areas. The global economic uncertainty has increased, but we have great trust in our flexible business model, which enables us to quickly adapt to changes.
