On account of the substantial increase in net sales and earnings for the first quarter of 2020 compared with the corresponding period a year ago, Essity is today publishing its preliminary result for the first quarter of 2020. The strong development is partially a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Group’s net sales amounted to SEK 33,712m and organic net sales increased 7.8% in the first quarter of 2020 compared with the corresponding period a year ago. Adjusted EBITA[1)] increased 67% to SEK 5,333m.
