Solid organic growth and increased result
“Demand for our products and services remained healthy through the first quarter, but has been adversely impacted by delayed decisions by our customers due to uncertainty in the construction market, mainly driven by continued material shortages and price volatility. Continued spread of coronavirus and subsequent shutdowns, together with the war in Ukraine, has created challenges for the construction industry in terms of materials supply and delivery times. As a result, Byggfakta Group reports slightly weaker new sales resulting in an organic sales growth of 7.1 percent in the first quarter and an adjusted EBITDA margin in line with the fourth quarter”, says Stefan Lindqvist, CEO of Byggfakta Group.
