SCA Yildiz is primarily active in baby care products. In 2018, the company reported net sales of SEK 364 million (TRY 197 million). The divestment gives rise to a currency related loss of approximately SEK 150 million, which will be recognised as an item affecting comparability in the second quarter of 2019. This will not impact cash flow or shareholders’ equity, the Swedish company said in a press release.
