+Added: Bolzoni expects a return to profitability in the fourth quarter of 2022 as component shortages moderate, efficiencies return and benefits are realized from pricing actions.
+Added: Bolzoni expects solid operating profit in the second half of 2022 compared with an operating loss in the second half of 2021.
