Electrolux (Hold, TP: SEK165.00) - Better than feared Q2
Electrolux illustrated that it is a champion in reducing costs very rapidly as Q2 EBIT was better than initially feared, mostly due to higher than expected net cost-savings. We expected costs to drop dramatically in Q4, but it appears savings have been generated earlier than that. Although the savings surely cannot be extrapolated (as they are mainly related to the crisis), we believe the company’s quality is improving, as is set to be exemplified by the Q2 results.AB Electrolux sells home appliance for households and businesses, with products such as refrigerators, dishwashers, washing machines, cookers, vacuum cleaners, air conditioners and small domestic appliances under brands such as Electrolux, AEG, Zanussi, Frigidaire and Electrolux Grand Cuisine.
