CEO comment
CONTINUED GROWTH AND STRENGTHENED MARKET POSITION
Adjusted net sales for the quarter increased by 26.8% to SEK 159.6 (125.9) million, primarily driven by strategic acquisitions that significantly strengthened our market presence in Europe, and further supported by 7% organic growth, notably from our global accounts. Adjusted recurring revenue grew by 9.9% to SEK 65.4 (59.5) million, representing 41.0% of net sales. Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter rose to SEK 22.0 (11.5) million, reflecting our ability to scale efficiently while maintaining sound cost control.
We are honored to have been named “Outstanding Company of the Year” at the 2025 Digital Signage Awards, with Engage Suite receiving recognition for its industry innovation and impact. These honors underscore our commitment to delivering cutting-edge solutions that drive customer engagement and innovation excellence.
During the quarter, we successfully completed our bond refinancing on favorable terms, reflecting the strong confidence our financial partners have in our strategic direction and financial health. We announced a significant new contract with Ruter, Oslo’s public transport authority. This five-year agreement involves modernizing digital signage across 370 transit locations, enhancing real-time passenger information and overall commuter experience, and increases our market position in the public sector.
In Germany, we are making good progress in transforming our local company to embrace Zetadisplay’s Full-Service-Provider business model and are now offering our comprehensive digital signage solutions both to existing and new customers. In the UK, we have appointed a new Managing Director and are focusing on leveraging our Engage Suite platform, both by migrating key UK customers and by strengthening our value proposition to more proactively attract new customers.
OUTLOOK
We are encouraged by the continued evolution we see in areas such as hardware, analytics, AI, retail media and security, as well as by the positive market receptiveness to our offering. Our Full-Service-Provider business model, including our award-winning Engage Suite platform and a strong local market presence, positions us well to support our organic growth ambitions.
The successful integration of Beyond Digital Solutions in the UK and our transformation into a Full-Service Provider across all markets, including Germany, enhance our capability to deliver comprehensive, international value-driven services.
Looking ahead, we remain focused on driving long-term value through innovation, operational excellence, and deeper customer engagement to accelerate profitable growth. At the same time, we remain diligent in our cost and investment priorities with measures to navigate any unexpected effects from ongoing external market influences.
I extend my sincere gratitude to all our employees for their dedication and to our customers for their continued trust in ZetaDisplay.
