(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Q3 revenue was at the lower end of our expectations, and gross profit margin was below. Initially, we expected the market to recover in late 2025. However, this has not materialised to the extent that we expected. Consequently, we refine our guidance to DKK 12.0bn in revenue (previously DKK and DKK 460m in EBITDA (previously DKK 450m-510m).

CEO Jens Andersen says:
“While our Q3 results were at the low end of expectations, our commitment to long-term value creation remains unchanged. The signing of an agreement to acquire Sonepar Norge, the construction of our new state-of-the-art logistics centre in Sweden, and our continued investment in the digital transformation journey are all strategic milestones. These initiatives make up the foundation for sustainable growth and earnings across our markets.”
