Question: Carl Ragnerstam - Nordea Markets, Research Division - Analyst

markets, I mean, Denmark, U.K.? And I think you gave the number for e-Commerce.
Question: Carl Ragnerstam - Nordea Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: Okay. Perfect. And you also mentioned that you had operational disruptions in Sweden and Finland. I mean, was it primarily in the first few months
in the quarter? Or do you still see or experience such effects in your production units in these countries?
Question: Carl Ragnerstam - Nordea Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: Okay. Perfect. And the final one for me, if I may. If you could update us on the competitive landscape, whether you have seen any particular changes

messages for Europe, we saw one communication in the U.K. And can you comment how this will or could potentially impact you and your business?
I mean it's obviously quite difficult for you to say right now, I guess. But do you feel that you have the right product assortment and so on in order
to capitalize on these programs?
