ABB Ltd. (ABBN.EB) said Thursday that its first-quarter net profit dropped, despite slightly higher revenue.

Net profit at the Swiss industrial conglomerate was $572 million in the first quarter, compared with $724 million a year earlier, the company said.

ABB said the lower profit was due in part to a tough comparison effect with the first quarter of 2017, when the company booked the gains from the divestment of its cables business.

Revenue rose 10% to $8.63 billion from $7.85 billion, ABB said,

The company said it booked total orders of $9.8 billion, compared with $8.4 billion a year earlier. Large orders accounted for around 10% of the total order book, the same level as a year earlier.

"Work to secure regulatory approvals to acquire GE Industrial Solutions continues and the transaction is on track to close by the end of the second quarter," ABB said.
