AI Summary
Q3 2024

Organic Growth: AO returned to organic growth in both B2B and B2C segments, with Q3 sales up nearly 8% reported and 1.8% organically, achieving the second highest Q3 sales ever.

Margin Pressure: Gross margins fell from 23% to 21.8% due to intense competition and rebate pressure, particularly in B2B and project sales.

Guidance Unchanged: Full-year 2024 guidance for revenue, EBITDA, and EBT remains unchanged despite tough market conditions.

Acquisition Impact: Recent acquisitions boosted margins by 0.8 percentage points and are delivering as expected, with integration and transition costs partially impacting Q3 and Q4.

Cost & Debt: Rising external and salary costs, partly from acquisitions, increased net interest-bearing debt to DKK 1.3 billion; financial gearing is expected to improve in Q4.

B2C Strength: B2C sales hit a record Q3 high, with organic growth for the fourth consecutive quarter and a notable margin jump driven by favorable sales mix.

Stockholm Expansion: AO is accelerating outlet expansion in Stockholm, planning a third site to open in early 2025 based on strong regional potential.

Dividend Outlook: Despite elevated leverage, management expects the 50% payout dividend ratio to be maintained.
