Ratos announces positive earnings impact of approximately SEK 300 million related to arbitration award involving Diab Group
Today, an arbitration award has been issued in a dispute involving Diab Group, a Ratos subsidiary, as one of the parties. As a result of the award and in line with Ratos’s ongoing streamlining strategy, a decision has been made to decrease the capacity in Diab Group’s PET production and to impair and right-size certain assets directly linked to the dispute.
Together, these measures will result in a positive effect on the Group’s reported earnings of approximately SEK 300 million, which will be recognised as items affecting comparability in the interim report for the third quarter of 2025. The total positive impact on cash flow is expected to amount to approximately SEK 600 million.
