Innofactor - EBIT misses estimates

Innofactor’s Q3 results were below our estimates. Net sales amounted to EUR 13.8m (Evli 14.2m) while EBIT was weak, at EUR -1.2m (Evli -0.3m), partly due to the lower net sales. Innofactor concluded co-operation negotiations and reorganizations, expecting a total positive impact on group EBITDA of EUR 2.4m beginning in 2019.
