SKF AB Class B, a leading global provider of bearings, seals, lubrications, and services, is known for its innovative solutions in enhancing industrial performance and sustainability. Despite facing weak market conditions and significant currency headwinds, SKF AB reported a solid operating margin and strong cash flow for the third quarter of 2024. The company saw a decrease in net sales and organic growth, with net sales reaching SEK 23,692 million, a decline from the previous year. Adjusted operating profit also saw a slight decrease to SEK 2,821 million, with the automotive segment particularly affected.

Looking forward, SKF expects a mid-single-digit decline in organic sales for the fourth quarter and the full year of 2024, as it prepares for continued market challenges.
