STOCKHOLM : Sweden's Ericsson, under fire over its handling of a bribery investigation in Iraq, on Thursday reported a fall in first-quarter core earnings, hurt by a delay in recording a large software contract and a provision related to suspension of business in Russia.
The company's quarterly adjusted operating earnings fell to 4.7 billion Swedish crowns from 5.3 billion a year ago. The mean forecast of 6.63 billion does not reflect 0.9 billion crowns of provision announced earlier this week related to Russia, according to Refinitiv data.
