PostNord reported financial results for the second quarter of 2016, with net sales declining 1% to SEK 9,590 million. Adjusted EBIT was SEK -1 million, down from SEK 33 million in the prior year, due to declining mail volumes and increased costs. Mail volumes fell 8% overall compared to the second quarter of 2015. However, parcel volumes rose 9% due to continued growth in e-commerce. Net debt increased to SEK 1,020 million as a result of pension obligations. Cost-cutting programs were ongoing to adapt to the lower mail volumes.
