Pihlajalinna reports Q3 results on Nov 4. We still expect Q3 EBITA to have remained a bit muted, but Q4 should see earnings growth while multiples and margins imply upside.
Pihlajalinna’s Q2 didn’t deliver many surprises; we expect further improvement to materialize over the course of H2.
Pihlajalinna’s Q2 results came in largely according to expectations. Top line growth continued strong and certain cost items remained high.
