Outlook and guidance
Management said budgeted volumes and margins remain on track and expects further profitability gains from internal efficiency work and a stronger product mix.
Higher inventory availability and new own-brand launches are expected to support Aurdel sales and gross margins in coming quarters, with further launches planned for Q4 in networking, smart-home and gaming products.
The new Aurdel webshop was well received, while customer-service changes improved response and case-resolution times; additional initiatives are planned.
