Michiel Jaski, CEO of Grontmij N.V. until 1 October 2015: 'In the third quarter we have made important progress on the public offer and the preparations for the integration agenda which were both crucial to enable Grontmij and Sweco to join forces. Our clients, employees and shareholders have responded in a positive way to our announcement to become the leading engineering consultancy in Europe, allowing us to swiftly move forward. Today we publish our results for Q3 showing margin improvement and stable revenues, backed by solid performances in the UK, Denmark and Germany, while the Netherlands continued to feel pressure. The public offer has now provided Sweco with more than 97% of the Grontmij shares and we expect delisting of Grontmij from Euronext Amsterdam on 19 November 2015.'
