Comments from President and CEO Sonny Mirborn:
“Stable Results and Strong Growth
XPartners Group delivered a stable third quarter with solid growth and improved earnings. Net sales increased by 147% year-on-year to MSEK 747. EBITA including items affecting comparability rose to MSEK 69, corresponding to a margin of 9.2%, while EBITA excluding items affecting comparability increased to MSEK 105, corresponding to a margin of 14.1%.
Financial development
The market continues to show a mixed picture, with variations between competence areas and geographies. Sweden developed steadily with healthy demand and sound margins. Norway also delivered strong results, and we see good opportunities for continued profitable growth. In Denmark delayed project starts in the life science sector had some slight impact on earnings and margins, while a solid market in other areas kept overall demand stable. Finland continues to grow profitably in a gradually improving market, with increasing collaboration opportunities and network effects as more companies join.
Eight acquisitions closed in the quarter
We remain positive on the acquisitions market and work methodically to build and pursue a pipeline of successful, well-managed companies. Interest in becoming part of XPartners remains strong, with many high-quality entrepreneur-led businesses approaching us. During the quarter, eight acquisitions closed, strengthening our capabilities, broadening the customer base and increasing network effects. In parallel, we are preparing for growth in Germany and the Netherlands by strengthening local leadership, establishing governance and readying processes for further expansion.
Entrepreneurship as a business model
Our goal is to build one of Northern Europe’s leading platforms in the built-environment sector by supporting entrepreneur-led specialist companies. Companies that join our group continue to run their businesses and retain their brand, leadership and culture. At the same time, they gain access to more customer relationships, deeper specialist competence, business-development and leadership support, and the financial stability that enables long-term decisions. XPartners is building a group where collaboration drives profitable organic growth, and well-selected acquisitions strengthen both the customer and employee offering.
In summary, our entrepreneurial model continues to demonstrate its strength through solid results, stronger collaboration between companies, high employee engagement and strong appeal to new entrepreneurs. We will continue to bring together leading specialist companies to accelerate the sustainable development of the built environment and create long-term value for our customers, our companies and society at large.”
