Kristofer Tonström, CEO and President: Sales in October show continued positive development in all prioritised product niches. Growth remains strong in our two largest sales markets, Sweden and Norway, but it is especially encouraging that Finland grew organically by as much as 11 per cent in October, which stands out positively in comparison with the historical trend. As earlier in the year, the trend in other markets is negative due to the weaker US dollar, which is having a negative impact on Spares' B2B business.
