Profit

It is our objective to realize above average returns, defined as a Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) of at least 12%.
We strongly believe that we will be able to realize above average returns and meet our leading financial KPIs, which are: ROCE, ROS and Net DEBT/EBITDA.

In order to be able to closely monitor and manage the execution of our strategy we have introduced underlying company specific KPIs, such as: service levels to our customers, sales of new products, working capital days on hand and turnaround time of responses to customer inquiries for example price quotes.
