CEO Matthias Stadelmeyer's comments

The start of the year 2022 and the results for the first quarter are in line with our expectations and continue the good performance from last year.

Total revenue grew by 9%, gross profit by 14% and EBITDA increased to SEK 22M, all figures on currency adjusted comparison and without change related items.

Due to the significant macro-economic uncertainties, we experienced some bigger shifts in our business in Q1 that have had an impact on our results. Ecommerce and there especially retail and consumer electronics grew less than in the quarters before while at the same time travel is coming back to relevant levels and fashion clients are growing more than before. We saw as well that clients were more restrictive with additional media spendings which, to some extent, explains the lower growth of revenue compared to the growth of gross profit and with that the higher gross margin.

Our new products Metapic, Grow and Appiness continued to have a positive impact on the overall result. All these products have more than doubled their business compared to the same period last year and have as well a higher gross margin than the core business affiliate marketing.

We see ourselves well-prepared for the coming quarters while we continue our mission to grow the business of our clients and partners in the best possible way to create meaningful results for all stakeholders. We do that with passion and courage, and I look forward to your continued company on this journey.
