Industrial conglomerate Lifco misses the market's expectations with its report for the second quarter. Sales increased by 3.2 percent, corresponding to 6.94 billion Swedish kronor.
This at the same time as the market predicted sales of 7.11 billion kronor. The company's profit before tax increased at the same time by 6.4 percent to just over 2.3 billion kronor.
Lifco stepped into the OMXS30 list on the Stockholm Stock Exchange at the mid-year shift, which in turn means that the company is now included in the index funds that are based on the OMXS30 list.
