Operating Profit and Market Challenges: Hexagon's operating profit fell 10% to 360.6 million euros in Q2, but this was better than analyst expectations; the company faces market uncertainty due to U.S. trade policies affecting forecasts for the rest of the year.
Growth Initiatives and Future Plans: The company reported a 3% organic sales growth in Q2 after flat sales in Q1, and is implementing a cost improvement program to boost growth; plans for a spin-off of certain business units are set for the first half of 2026.
