Quotes from executive management Gitte Aabo, CEO of GN Hearing, comments: "Needless to say our Q2 financial results are not a pretty story. However, amidst the COVID-19 situation our employees have done a great job in ensuring our company gets through COVID-19 stronger than ever focusing on fundamentals and on bringing ReSound ONE to market as an entirely new class of hearing aids. With this exciting launch we deliver on our strategy of bringing individualized customer experience to market - something I am excited and optimistic about." René Svendsen-Tune, CEO of GN Audio, comments: "Albeit partly on the somber background of the COVID-19 pandemic, our global team and leading product portfolio have performed outstandingly in helping both existing and many new customers preserving their employees' productivity when working from home. We see this very strong current demand continue into Q3, and in the mid-term we expect a more normalized - but still strong - demand in line with our mid-term financial targets." Marcus Desimoni, CFO of GN Store Nord, comments: "In an extremely challenging COVID-19 market situation for GN Hearing, we are very pleased to be able to deliver a positive EPS for the quarter. With our continued sound balance sheet and access to ample sources of liquidity this is a testimony to the resilience of the company." Financial overview Q2 2020
