"Saur delivers a solid start to the year with an acceleration of organic growth versus the previous year. It clearly demonstrates the change of the Group’s growth profile and ability to gain market share. We also continued to build for the future, expanding into North America with the acquisition of Aqua-Chem and signing an exclusive agreement with Veolia to enhance our presence in the European Mobile Water Market. Even though overall  conditions deteriorated in the beginning of the financial year 2022, we are confident and confirm our outlook for the full year. "
