  • Volume had a slightly positive impact with organic growth in all business areas

  • Positive price increase across all, mainly in DCT. Negative impacts from tariffs in DCT as well as product mix in AirTech & DCT

  • Negative operational excellence effects due to under-absorption in AirTech and new factory ramp-up in DCT

  • Strategic initiatives for scalability in digitization and automation continues along with footprint and growth investments. Positive support from cost saving measures in AirTech

    Negative currency effect for the quarter
