Revenue stood at RON238.5 million, down 2.1% due to the reduction in the volume of finished product sales and collected waste, while expenses reached RON248.7 million, down 1.3% year-on-year.
At group level, EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) stood at RON30.2 million (compared with RON42.1 million in the budget) in absolute terms, and in relative terms it stood at 14.4% of revenue (compared with 15.6% budget), with all companies in the group having a negative impact on budgeted expectations, mainly due to the downward trend in sales.
