Executive summary

  • Q3 revenue reached DKK 2.8–2.815 billion, at the lower end of expectations, with adjusted organic growth at -2.1% and EBITDA at DKK 110 million, impacted by non-recurring costs.

  • Major warehouse consolidation in Sweden completed ahead of schedule, with ongoing construction of a new logistics centre and continued investment in automation and digitalization, including a new digital platform and AI-driven customer tools launching in 2026.

  • Acquisition of Sonepar Norway/Norge announced, aiming to create a leading distributor with DKK 2.5 billion combined revenue; closing expected early December and integration by end of H1 2026.

  • New growth initiatives and early warehouse vacating resulted in greater net working capital reduction.

  • Q3 included DKK 8 million in additional costs related to restructuring, transition, and acquisition activities.

Financial highlights

  • Q3 revenue was DKK 2,815 million, down 1.6% year-over-year; Q1–Q3 revenue totaled DKK 9,056 million, up 0.7% year-over-year.

  • Q3 EBITDA margin was 3.9% (4.2% adjusted), compared to 7.1% (5.7% adjusted) in Q3 2024.

Outlook and guidance

  • Sonepar Norway acquisition expected to have negligible P&L impact in 2025; integration to be completed by H1 2026.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
