MacGregor’s CEO Jonas Gustavsson: Strong profitability in an uncertain market environment

“I am pleased with our performance in the quarter, where we delivered an adjusted EBIT of EUR 28 million, corresponding to a 14 percent margin. Solid operational execution, a favorable product mix, and effective cost management drove the strong result across the business. In Offshore, it is encouraging to see that the actions taken have yielded improved operational and financial performance.

We continue to operate in an uncertain market affected by geopolitical and trade tensions. However, growing freight volumes and fleet renewal remain solid long-term drivers. While our order intake decreased from the strong comparison period, our order book of EUR 999 million provides good visibility for the years ahead.

The third quarter of 2025 marked the beginning of our new era as a standalone company.
Our ambition is to be the leading provider of maritime cargo and load-handling solutions. We have introduced a new organization to strengthen our capabilities and enable us to deliver on our targets. Overall, we are entering this new era with high ambitions, clear plans, and full of energy.”
