what happened

Swedish group Lifco AB reported third-quarter profit of SEK975 million, or SEK2.15 per share, up from SEK892 million, or SEK1.96 per share, a year earlier. Revenue climbed 8.3% to SEK7.407 billion from SEK6.842 billion.

Securitas AB posted a bottom line of SEK2.109 billion, or SEK3.68 per share, compared with SEK625 million, or SEK1.09 per share, in the same period last year. Adjusted earnings came to SEK1.852 billion, or SEK3.24 per share. Revenue rose 0.1% to SEK38.566 billion from SEK38.521 billion.

The figures are GAAP results. The information was published by TradingView, citing RTTNews and dpa-AFX.

why it matters

For markets, this is mainly a report from two large Swedish companies rather than a signal for the whole sector. Securitas' revenue was almost flat, and its reported profit sits above adjusted earnings, meaning items excluded from the adjusted figure shaped the result. Lifco's revenue and profit both grew noticeably, a cleaner trend for investors to track.
