“I am proud of how we as an organization have navigated this challenging year with a strong focus on health and safety. For me it confirms that we have the right strategy and culture in place, allowing us to quickly act on challenges as well as seize opportunities. As the pandemic continues into 2021, we will continue to create value – safely and sustainably,” said Jonas Samuelson, Electrolux President, and Chief Executive Officer.

While each of the company’s business segments saw increased growths, the firm saw its Income for the period pegged at 1.860 billion Swedish kronor against 366 million Kronor in the year-ago period and earnings per share coming at 6.47 kronor to 1.27 kronor per share.
Electrolux Is Modest about Future Growth Despite Strong Q4 Results
Despite the impressive showing the company recorded in the fourth quarter, the firm has refused to give a definitive projection for this current fiscal year. However, the firm believes the consumer demand in the first half of the year will be healthy.
The CEO noted that “looking into 2021, visibility remains limited due to the ongoing pandemic. However, for the first half of 2021, we anticipate that the strong consumer demand from increased home-improvement spending experienced during the second half of 2020 will remain to some extent.”
As a cap to its performance, the company is proposing a dividend of 8.00 Swedish kronor against the 7 kronor per share in the year-ago period. The proposal involves the payment of the dividends in two equal installments.
