Tegevjuhi kommentaar
“2017 was a strong year for NOTE. We won new customers' trust and at the same time we strengthened our partnerships within the current customer base. During the year, sales in our units increased by 9% and during the fourth quarter we achieved a growth of 13%. At year-end, our order books were just over 20% above the previous year's level.

Increased sales, cost efficiency improvements and strong development in our Western European units contributed to boosting our profitability. In the fourth quarter, our operating margin improved by 1.3 percentage points to 7.0%.

We are financially well equipped for the future–our Balance Sheet is one of the strongest in the industry. At year-end we had an equity ratio of 49%, well above the targeted 30%,” says Per Ovrén, CEO and President.

NOTE’s Year-end Report for 2017 is now available in PDF format at the web site, www.note.eu, and attached to this message. The Interim Report for January–March will be published on 26 April.
