“On an organic basis, bookings were flat year-over-year, while net revenues decreased by 1 percent. Gross profit, a key earnings metric, increased organically by 2 percent year-over-year and amounted to 1,269 MSEK. This corresponds to a gross margin of 80 percent, which is an increase of 2 percentage points compared to the same period last year. Stillfront’s strategy is to focus on our largest franchises, where we currently have significant organic growth. The remaining portfolio has a negative effect on growth but continues to contribute with healthy margins and a strong cash flow. Stillfront continues to generate a strong cash flow and free cash flow for the third quarter amounted to 298 MSEK. Our solid cash flow generation enabled us to buy back shares for 80 MSEK as well as amortize 223 MSEK of our external debt.”

Alexis Bonte, Interim CEO, Stillfront
