cash flow from current operations Explanation: Kassaflöde is definitely cash flow. "Den löpande verksamhet" should be current operations - without the definite article. This is supported by the following example: Cash flow from current operations, that is before strategic capital investments and dividends, amounted to SEK 6,740 M (3,876), equal to SEK 31.45 (18.46) per share. Accordingly, SCA clearly exceeded the established cash flow targets. Reference: http://www.sca.se/pdf/bokslut99gb.pdf. |
