The producer price index dropped 2.4 percent year-on-year in April, following a 0.3 percent decrease in March.
A continued strong Swedish krona compared to the US dollar led to lower prices on all markets in April, the agency said.
Prices for trade services of electricity on the domestic market showed a sharp annual decline of 18.8 percent.
