Comments from the CEO

Strong growth and continued investments

ZetaDisplays net sales amounted to SEK 167.4 (122.4) million, which is an increase of 36.8% compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency effects, sales increased by 27.6% to SEK 166.9 (130.8) million. SaaS revenues amounted to SEK 49.8 (45.1) million and represented 29.7 (36.8) % of net sales. ARR was listed at SEK 197.7 million and EBITDA amounted to SEK 14.7 (15.3) million. Adjusted for items affecting comparability, EBITDA was SEK 21.5 (17.9) million.

Net sales are attributable to increasing activity in the market. Project sales were 52.1 % higher than the corresponding period last year and were quoted at SEK 117.6 (77.3) million. Gross profit amounted to SEK 83.4 (70.0) million, corresponding to a gross margin of 49.8 (57.2) %. The margin was affected by a higher share of project sales compared to the previous year.

Comment

The quarter has meant increased business activity with larger orders, both for our existing customers and in new customer sales. New and renegotiated framework agreements for 2023 accelerate our growth and contribute to our international expansion. The implementation of key group strategic initiatives is progressing according to plan and strengthens the organization's capabilities. We see good opportunities for continued growth in both the short and long term as well as increased activity regarding new business opportunities, especially in the large customer segment.

Outlook

We continue to closely monitor developments in the market and in the rest of the world. Through our strong partnerships with leading suppliers and through increasing efficiency coordination within the Group and a stable international customer portfolio, we are well prepared to handle any challenges. Our assessment is that the market will continue to show growth in the coming quarters.

During the quarter, we continued to invest consciously for the future, which paves the way for scalable growth in a growing market with strengthened organizational and product conditions.

I would especially like to thank our employees for their strong performance and commitment during the quarter and thank our customers for their trust.
