CEO Giles Palmer comments:
Net sales decreased by 10.4 percent in the third quarter to EUR 66.6m (-4.9 percent in constant currency) compared to the same period last year. Marketplace sales were weak in both Americas and EMEA. The key factors impacting our performance are decreased demand from certain core customers and overarching economic conditions. This is why we are investing to create a unified platform with the most choice, best quality and cutting-edge user experience in the industry to serve customers of all sizes as efficiently as possible.
Whilst we are experiencing a decline in certain parts of our core business, we are seeing strong growth in Media Measurement. We are increasing investment into this area to help our customers.

The gross margin was 62.2 percent and the EBITDA margin adjusted for items affecting comparability was 18.1 percent (19.0) where we have held operational expenses, mainly personnel costs and other external expenses, steady during the year.
