“Despite macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty, the shopping patterns of our consumers is so far largely unchanged”, Chief Executive Alexander Lacik said in a statement.
Pandora still expects full-year organic growth of between 4% and 6% and reaffirmed an outlook for an operating profit margin at 25.0%-25.5%.
