SOLID BELIEF IN THE BUSINESS IDEA AND THE FINANCIAL GOAL
Stockwik’s business idea and the financial goal of achieving an EBITA growth of 15 percent remains solid.
Our Healthcare, Business Services and Industry segment developed better than expected during the quarter. Healthcare continues to stand out with a better development than expected during the reporting period (January 1st – September 30th).
As of September 30th, 2023, the group has generated a proforma EBITDA of SEK 88.1 million over the most recent rolling twelve-month period. We have worked with our businesses and, for instance, implemented localized one-time cost-saving measures. These cost-saving initiatives, totalling to SEK 16.1 million, have been fully integrated and will be gradually realized from the third quarter of 2023. Adjusting for these cost savings, the proforma EBITDA amounts to SEK 104.2 million for the most recent rolling twelve-month period instead of SEK 88.1 million. The adjusted EBITDA proforma, per the bond terms, now stands at SEK 94.6 million, resulting in a net debt/EBITDA ratio, as per the bond terms, of 4.4x.
Together with our companies, we continue to focus on expanded corporate governance and expect to remove additional SEK 10 million in costs savings up to and including 2024.
