The positive trend we experienced in the third quarter of 2015 continued into the fourth quarter. We had organic growth of 9% and an improved EBIT margin. EMEA continues to lead the way with strong RV sales growth in the OEM business as well as in the aftermarket. It is encouraging to note that we have outpaced the market and are taking market share.
The RV (recreational vehicles) business in the US showed continued growth and we are now trading line with the market. The Marine business is displaying improving numbers on the back of positive market development and the launch of new products. However, earnings in the region were burdened by high logistics costs.
The APAC region had a solid fourth quarter, which largely compensated for a weaker first half of the year. In particular, the Australian aftermarket business experienced a strong quarter, capitalizing on new product launches and new customer accounts.
The Aftermarket business, which has improved in terms of both growth and margins, was a supported the positive development throughout the year. Several activities have been implemented across all three regions and we are starting to see the results come through. The Aftermarket business remains a significant opportunity for us to generate organic, profitable growth.
Looking back at the full year we continued to deliver on our strategic priorities, strengthening both the OEM and AM business. Sales increased organically by 8% and EBIT margin strengthened from 11.6% to 12.3% through several targeted cost programs, including the SG&A program in Europe, the initiatives to further optimize our cooking equipment production in Europe, and the integration effects of the Atwood acquisition.
Our initial public offering on November 25 gave us a significantly stronger balance sheet, allowing us the financial flexibility to make strategic investments. We have set our financial targets as outlined in the prospectus and we have a roadmap of initiatives to continue to implement our strategy. In light of this and the current conditions of our markets, we remain confident for 2016.

This represents a sales increase of 24 percent, of which 3% was organic, 6% was attributable to acquisitions and 15% to currency translation. Atwood has been excluded in the calculation of organic growth and instead included in the acquired growth calculation to achieve a better comparison, as the acquisition was made on October 17, 2014, i.e. not included in the Dometic Group for the full quarter 2014.

Q4 sales in EMEA in the OEM channels increased by 15% and Aftermarket sales report 8% growth, in constant currency. The fourth quarter is usually the weakest due to seasonal variations, particularly for Aftermarket.
Sales in the RVOEM business area rose in the quarter, mainly driven by underlying market growth combined with strong volumes for Windows and Doors.
Overall, the Marine OEM business showed modest growth in sales, but encouraging improvements in France and Italy, while the UK struggled, mainly due to the strong currency (GBP).
Sales increased in the CPVOEM business, mainly as a consequence of strong sales of roof top air conditioners and refrigerators to some of the largest truck manufacturers.
Aftermarket overall reported strong growth, with the largest improvement found in CPV aftermarket on sales of air conditioning service stations to the service network of one of the larger car manufacturers in Europe. RV aftermarket also reported strong sales growth due to increased sales activities in Central Europe, France and the UK.

Sales in the OEM channels for Q4 in APAC increased by 16%, while the Aftermarket grew by 40%, in constant currency.
In the RVOEM business, sales grew in the fourth quarter as well, mainly from Australia/New Zealand. The addition of Atwood also had a positive effect on sales development.
Sales increased in the Marine OEM business, mainly due to new customers in South East Asia, but sales in Australia also improved compared with the same quarter last year.
The CPVOEM business reported lower sales, mainly due to weaker demand for premium cars in China.
In the fourth quarter, the Aftermarket business displayed a similar pattern to the summer period in Europe and the US, with holiday preparations, but with the addition of Christmas campaigns. The strong sales growth in Q4 2015 was mainly due to successful launches of new cooling boxes combined with broader distribution in Australia.

Dometic Group AB (publ) applies International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as adopted by the EU. This consolidated Interim Financial Report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'. The Swedish Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2 Reporting for legal entities, issued by the Swedish Financial Reporting Board have been applied for the Parent Company.
The accounting policies applied correspond to those described in the 2014 Annual Report, except for with respect to a number of minor amendments to existing standards and new interpretations that took effect on January 1, 2015. These are not judged to have any material effect on the Group's result from operations, or its financial position or disclosures. In addition, Dometic Group applies hedge accounting for net investment in foreign operations from January 1, 2015.
The Group consolidated accounts for 2014 have been adjusted due to an identified currency translation difference (SEK 16 million) related to the shareholder contributions received in October 2014. This has been adjusted as a restatement against retained earnings as of January 1, 2015. The adjustment had no impact on the Group's consolidated equity.
For a detailed description of the accounting and valuation policies applied by the Group, see Notes 1, 2 and 4 in the 2014 Annual Report. The Annual Report is available at www.dometicgroup.com, under Investors.
Dometic Group is a global company selling its products in almost 100 countries, and as such is exposed to a number of commercial and financial risks. Accordingly, risk management is an important process for Dometic Group in its work to achieve established targets.
The Dometic Group is subject to transaction risks at the time of purchasing and selling, as well as when conducting financial transactions. Transaction exposure is primarily related to the currencies EUR, USD and AUD. As the majority of the Group's profit is generated outside Sweden, the Group is also exposed to translational risks in all the major currencies.
Efficient risk management is an ongoing process conducted within the framework of business control, and is part of the ongoing review of operations and forward-looking assessment of operations.
In the preparation of financial reports the Board of Directors and Group management are required to make estimates and judgments. These estimates and judgments impact the income statement and balance sheet as well as the disclosures. The actual outcome may differ from these estimates and judgments under different circumstances and conditions.
Dometic Group's future risk exposure is assumed not to deviate from the inherent exposure associated with Dometic Group's ongoing business operations. For a more in-depth analysis of risks, please refer to Dometic Group's Annual Report for 2014.
Dometic Group uses interest rate swaps to hedge senior facility term loans to move from a floating interest rate to a fixed interest rate. The Group also uses currency forward agreements to hedge part of its cash flow exposure.
The fair values of Dometic Group's derivative assets and liabilities were SEK 34 million (Q4 2014: SEK 41 million) and SEK 39 million, (Q4 2014: SEK 22 million) respectively.
The value of derivatives is based on published prices in an active market. No transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy have occurred during the period.
For financial assets and liabilities other than derivatives, fair value is assumed to be equal to the carrying amount.
