The consolidated full-year outlook for 2018 previously announced is adjusted as follows:

  • Operating profit before special items is expected to be in the range of DKK 5,100-5,400 million (previously DKK 5,000-5,400 million).
  • Adjusted free cash flow is expected to approximate DKK 4,000 million (unchanged).
  • The effective tax rate is expected to be 23% (unchanged).

A separate company announcement about the launch of a three-month share buyback programme of DKK 1,100 million will be issued today.
