Ann-Sofi Jönsson Head of Investor Relations & Sustainability Reporting
Welcome to the presentation of Electrolux Group's Second Quarter Results 2026. I'm Ann-Sofi Jönsson, Head of Investor Relations and Sustainability Reporting.
Today, we are running a webcast and a phone conference simultaneously. You will hear us but not see us, as you typically do, as we had to postpone the report date from the original date of the 17th until today as a result of the completion of the rights issue at the end of June.
We will open up for Q&A after the presentation. With me today, I have Yannick Fierling, our CEO, and Therese Friberg, our CFO. So now I hand over to you, Yannick.
Yannick Fierling President, CEO & Director
Thank you, Ann-Sofi. And again, a very warm welcome to all of you for this second quarter presentation 2026.
This quarter marks a very important milestone for the Electrolux Group. At the beginning of December last year, we presented an overarching strategic direction for Electrolux. This included a top priority to improve our business in North America. In this quarter, we announced an important step for the transformation of the region: a strategic partnership with Midea for our Food Preservation and Fabric Care business.
