Financial objectives
The ÅF Group’s financial objectives as stated by the Board of Directors in August 2007
ÅF is to be the most profitable among the closest comparable companies in the industry and achieve an operating margin (EBIT) of at least 10 percent over a business cycle.
ÅF is to be a net debtor. Net debt shall not exceed 40 percent of equity.
The earlier formulation for the Group's growth target, which specifies that ÅF is to attain sales of at least SEK 5 billion by 2010, remains unchanged.
![Page 10: The ÅF Group Jonas Wiström, President & CEO Jonas Ågrup, CFO Viktor Svensson, IR Per Magnusson, Engineering September 2008](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e565503460f94b4eb98/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
A possible downturn
Make sure that you monitor: Order backlog, utilization rate, prospect list and sales calls all the way out in the entire organisation.
Trust your numbers, they do not lie.
Act before your competitors.
