"Haypp Group started 2024 solidly, with nicotine pouches (NPs) retaining their momentum, increasing 40 per cent in volume y/y against equally strong 41 per cent growth in 2023, more than doubling since Q1 2022. We expect this growth to continue across our Core and Growth segments. NPs accounted for 58 per cent of our Group sales volume in Q1 2024 and continue to increase as a share of Group volume by around 1 percentage point per month. We expect to continue our progress toward the SEK 5bn Group Net sales in 2025 and 5–7 per cent adjusted EBIT margin target for combined Core and Growth markets, as recently detailed in our Capital Market Day, aided by increasing economies of scale from volume growth", says Haypp Groups CEO Gavin O'Dowd.
