Asia Pacific reported very strong incoming orders in the quarter, including a number of significant orders in China and South East Asia. Stable development continued in the Americas, with contributions from both North and South America. Demand remains weak in Europe and is, as previously announced, primarily related to sales of larger system solutions. This development is being driven by the fact that industrial investment in general in Europe is at a low level. Profitability improved compared with Q1, mostly because of the higher sales volume. After the first six months of the year the operating margin is around the same level as last year. The announced efficiency measures concerning business activities within EMEA are proceeding according to plan and earnings have been affected by a further SEK 10 million in the quarter, which means that SEK 20 million of the total non -recurring costs of SEK 35 million have now been spent.
