In his speech, CEO Magnus Nilsson described the Group's business and development during 2023 and the first quarter 2024. Considering the very challenging year, characterized by falling demand and a negative organic growth, Elanders had a relatively good result in 2023. The year ended on a positive note due to a strong cash flow, which enabled the acquisition of Kammac. Furthermore, Magnus Nilsson also reported on the investments that have been made and the sustainability work that is being carried out within the Group.
The minutes from the Annual General Meeting will be available on the company website as soon as they have been verified.
