Under normal circumstances, Nobina’s net leverage ratio is to be within 3 to 4 times EBITDA, including strategic debt financing. Outcome 2020/2021: 2.6x EBITDA.
Adjusted EBT margin of 5.6 percent which was higher than last year and mainly derived from healthy profitability in Samtrans’ additional activities.
Net leverage ratio went from 3.1 to 2.6 where the improvement is mainly due to improved result and no dividend in 2019/2020.
In light of continued uncertainty on the market with regards to Covid-19 and potential growth opportunities, the Board proposes a dividend of SEK 3.77 (SEK 0) per share.
