The Corona Pandemic
- Well-beingof our employees is our highest priority
- All Loomis' branches are running but not everyone at full capacity
- False rumours circulate that cash spreads the virus. The rumours have been denied by medical experts. More information is available atwww.loomis.com
- Reduction of all variable costs continue to be high priority
- Comprehensive restructuring programs in several European countries ongoing
- Postponement of capital expenditures
- Full year 2020 positive free cash flow of SEK 1,626 million (2019: SEK 1,310), despite the pandemic
- Loomis is taking advantage of the current situation. New customer contracts have been signed and Loomis market share is increasing
- Loomis' employees have done a fantastic job of maintaining high quality services despite a very challenging situation
- However, due to the ongoing corona pandemic Loomis believes the revenue target, of SEK 24 billion for 2021, will likely not be achieved. As the market conditions for 2021 are still uncertain, due to the pandemic, Loomis has therefore decided to remove the revenue target
