Atria Group's net sales continued to grow – result was strong
• In April-June consolidated net sales (+ EUR 25 Million) increased as a result of stable sales volumes and sales prices that were higher than in the comparison period.
• Additional costs related to the roll-out of Atria's investments in Finland and Sweden reduced EBIT. In addition, EBIT was weighed down by the increased cost of raw materials, supplies and external services, as well as increased wage costs.
• Atria acquired 100,000 of its own series A shares.
• Kai Gyllström took over as Group CEO on 1 June 2023.
• In January-June net sales grew by almost EUR 80 million year-on-year. The growth resulted from stable sales volumes and sales prices that were higher than in the comparison period.

• In April-June the growth of net sales in local currencies, excluding the Russian fast-food business, was almost 5%.
• Raw material prices have continued to rise during April-June. Higher raw material prices, the weakening of the Swedish krona and costs related to the Sköllersta expansion project weighed on Atria Sweden's result.
• Sales volumes remained stable, but it has not been possible to pass on price increases sufficiently to customers in a tight market environment.
• The expansion of the Sköllersta plant was completed during the reporting period. • The EBIT for the comparison period includes a non-recurring gain of EUR 9.9 million on the sale of the factory property in Malmö and a nonrecurring recovery of EUR 1.0 million in pension contributions.
• In January-June the growth of net sales in local currencies, excluding the Russian fast-food business, was almost 10%. Sales price increases strengthened net sales.
• EBIT was weighed down by higher costs and weaker consumer purchasing power resulting from inflation. Consumers prefer products in the lower price range. The sales price increases have not been sufficient to cover rapidly rising costs.
