At the AGM, Tom Erixon, Alfa Laval's President and CEO, talked about 2018, a year which was characterized by strong organic growth following a beneficial ship contracting development, an upswing in demand for marine environmental solutions and a positive trend in the energy markets. Furthermore, he gave examples of activities that were implemented during the year within Alfa Laval's strategic focus areas: customers, products and service.

The income statements and balance sheets were adopted, together with the Board's proposal for the distribution of surplus. The proposed dividend of SEK 5:00 per share was approved. The AGM also approved the discharge from liability for the Board of Directors and the Managing Director.
