Statement from the CEO

A solid end to the year and further international progress

We finished 2019 with further growth in revenue. For the fourth quarter net sales grew by 23% to over 344 MSEK. It's pleasing that we have a very strong cash flow and that profitability has continued to develop well in the context of one-off costs for restructuring Damixa with the aim of making the brand even more design and customer focused.

We are very pleased with the continuation of our international development, both the acquisition of Hotbath and our existing business. Sales and margin are continuing to grow for both these parts of the business. For a long time, we have been working to increase our profitability and are seeing increasingly positive results from this. During the fourth quarter, revenue in the Nordic market was lower than last year, particularly in Sweden and Norway where the building sector was more conservative. Despite the lower sales in Norway we have maintained a relatively good profit thanks to internal improvements.

During the fourth quarter we decided to streamline our Damixa business. The assembly operation in Odense will be closed during 2020 and we will move to new premises. This change has resulted in costs of c. 8 MSEK for the quarter. We estimate that costs of 4.5 MSEK in relation to the change will be incurred in 2020. This decision is in line with our strategy to strengthen and develop our brands and product range. It will help us to create an even more design focused and flexible organisation with Danish character.

Before the year end we began to roll out new displays which will be more visible in shops, launched Damixa Bell Pro and broadened our range of concealed products. These launches give us a more complete offering as a supplier and partner. In 2020 we will follow our existing strategy with increased focus on developing our market position in the Nordic and international markets. Several launches are planned for the year to further our offering of sustainable products and services with an even clearer design content. An excellent example of this is the great response to Mora Armatur MMIX Tronic Black. It is a product which combines attractive looks with clear water and energy saving benefits and is exactly what we want to offer customers and partners.
