The global security giant SECURITAS AB-B SHS reported first-quarter earnings that fell short of market expectations, primarily due to significant currency headwinds. Based in Sweden, the company operates in over 40 countries and generates the majority of its revenue internationally, leaving its financial results highly vulnerable to fluctuations in the USD/SEK exchange rate and other currency pairings when translated back into Swedish crowns.
