Our record financial results reflect the solidity of our business model and our capacity to adjust promptly to unprecedented situations. 2022 looks like it will be another excellent year for ALD, confirming our track record of profitable growth through the cycle. Thanks to our employees’ professionalism and commitment over the past two decades, we are leading the transformation of the mobility industry, taking advantage of its strong megatrends. Our strategy consistently generates outstanding results, bolstered by our sector-leading operating efficiency and prudent risk management practices. As a result, ALD is in an excellent position to embark on the step-up change represented by the highly strategic and synergetic acquisition of LeasePlan, for which the approval processes are on track for a closing in Q1 2023.”
