- Axfood's second-quarter sales reached SEK 23,197 million, accompanied by a net income of SEK 634 million. Both the quarterly and six-month periods demonstrated higher EPS compared to the previous year.
- These consistent year-on-year increases in sales and earnings indicate that Axfood's core operations experienced continued growth throughout the first half of 2026.
