Statement by the President and CEO
Rejlers achieves a new record quarter, with an EBITA result exceeding SEK 100 million. Our sales have doubled since 2018 and the EBITA margin has increased to around 8 per cent from a previous five-year average of 2.5 per cent. We have provided good growth and profit development throughout the year thanks to good utilisation and generally improved hourly fees. If we broaden the time perspective to the past five years, we see that Rejlers has had an organic growth of more than 5 per cent on average, which is among the highest levels in the industry", says Viktor Svensson, President and CEO of Rejlers AB.
