Significant events during and after the end of the quarter
- No significant events during or after the end of the quarter.
“Growth in all markets, both online and in stores, and more than doubled adjusted EBITA show that we are on the right track. In fact, you have to go back to 2023 to find a third quarter that was both larger and more profitable than the one we are now leaving behind us. But the road ahead is what matters, and right now we are fully focused on the most important quarter of the year, Q4”, says Sandra Gadd, CEO at Kjell Group.
