Catena´s CEO Jörgen Eriksson comments on the year-end report:
”The company’s strong operational capacity, combined with resources generated by two successful directed share issues, has supported an active acquisition strategy which, in its turn, has significantly boosted earnings capacity per share.”
”Catena is well placed to continue to grow, and our organisation is structurally sound. Two important components of our approach are that we never stop thinking long-term and we always aim to exceed expectations.”
