WEBVTT 00:00:01.111 -- 00:00:06.199 Thank you very much. Welcome everyone to the Bergman & Beving interim report for our 00:00:06.199 -- 00:00:11.246 Q3 quarter. My name is Magnus Söderlin, I'm the CEO and on my side here 00:00:11.246 -- 00:00:14.808 I have Peter Schön, our CFO. 00:00:16.293 -- 00:00:21.561 So just to start off with some highlights from the Q3 00:00:21.561 -- 00:00:27.590 quarter. We have another quarter with increased earnings profitability 00:00:27.590 -- 00:00:31.283 and we also now have an increased EPS. 00:00:31.283 -- 00:00:33.045 and 00:00:33.045 -- 00:00:39.231 if you have followed us we have now 20 consecutive quarters with increased profits 00:00:39.231 -- 00:00:44.317 and this quarter the turnover increased six percent but that was mainly 00:00:44.317 -- 00:00:49.582 due to acquisition and we'll come back to them about the organic uh 00:00:49.582 -- 00:00:51.765 top line growth 00:00:51.765 -- 00:00:57.410 but we had an ebta increase of 10 and and that was mainly driven by the acquisitions 00:00:57.410 -- 00:01:02.699 contribution we had during the quarter And we continue also to improve 00:01:02.699 -- 00:01:08.345 the EBTA margins. So we're now at 9.6 this quarter compared with 9.3, 00:01:08.345 -- 00:01:11.827 the comparable quarter. 00:01:12.229 -- 00:01:17.073 And we also continue to improve our profitability. 00:01:17.315 -- 00:01:22.320 So our profitability measure has profit of working capital, and we now have an increase 00:01:22.320 -- 00:01:24.659 of 6% units. 00:01:24.659 -- 00:01:29.868 And this is measured rolling 12. So there's a kind of 00:01:29.868 -- 00:01:35.277 lag of the improvements we have made. So the rolling three figures 00:01:35.277 -- 00:01:37.901 is even higher than the rolling 12 figures. 00:01:37.901 -- 00:01...
