Electrolux Sees Profits Surge as North American Comeback Powers Q3 Growth

Electrolux has posted a strong third-quarter performance, with operating profits more than doubling year-over-year—thanks largely to a revitalized North American business. The Swedish appliance giant, whose portfolio includes household names like Frigidaire and AEG, reported operating earnings of 890 million kronor ($94.5 million), up from 349 million kronor in the same period last year.

This impressive leap was fueled by a 5% organic sales increase, driven primarily by double-digit growth in North America. After years of grappling with high production costs, plant inefficiencies, and intense competition, Electrolux’s U.S. operations have turned a corner—gaining market share and helping to offset rising customs duties.

“Despite a pressured price environment, we were able to offset most of the cost increases related to US customs duties in the third quarter,” said CEO Yannick Fierling, highlighting the company’s resilience and strategic progress.
