Nobina is the Nordic leader in scheduled public road transport services, with a market share of 16%. The company is also one of the ten largest public
transport companies in Europe.
We achieved powerful growth in operating profit for the third consecutive
year and won more than every second bus in the procurements we took part
in. This is a clear demonstration of strength in a market where other
major players have been plagued by problems and losses in recent years.
A half billion in three years
Our operating profit of SEK 206 billion is equal to an increase of 28% over the previous year. Above all, this represents an improvement of SEK 550 billion compared to 2005/2006, when three straight years of losses bottomed out in an operating deficit of SEK 344 million. While many major players continue to struggle with problems, we are going against the stream. On one level our success is the result of higher efficiency, an optimized bus fleet and rising volumes. On another more fundamental level, this impressive performance is attributable to a new businessmodel, continuous improvements through process control and closer collaboration with our principals.
