North Media: Foreløbige tal for Q3 2024 med en justering af 2024 forventningerne
North Media har i dag udsendt et foreløbigt resultat for 3. kvartal 2024 forud for, at det endelige regnskab offentliggøres senere i dag. En række forhold gør at North Media må nedjustere forventningerne til 2024.
Således venter North Media nu en omsætning i 2024 på DKK 1.315-1.340 mio. (fra tidligere DKK 1.320-1.365 mio.). EBITDA og EBIT ventes nu at lande på henholdsvis DKK 140-160 mio. (fra tidligere DKK 150-175 mio.) og DKK 65-85 mio. (fra DKK 75-100 mio.).
Årsagerne til justeringen af forventningerne til 2024 er:
- Accelereret implementering af maskinel pakning i Sverige
- Øgede lønomkostninger til omdelere i Danmark
- Lavere omsætning i Ofir og Bekey
De foreløbige tal for 3. kvartal 2024 viser en omsætning i kvartalet på DKK 307 mio. imod DKK 222 i 3. kvartal 2023, hvor væksten kan tilskrives købet af SDR, samt øget omsætning i BoligPortal. EBITDA falder til DKK 15 mio. fra DKK 37 mio. sidste år, som følge af de ovennævnte punkter. EBIT lyder på DKK -2 mio. imod DKK 30 mio. i samme kvartal året før.
North Media afholder i morgen – onsdag d. 6. november kl. 14.00 – et webcast med en gennemgang af regnskabet med CFO Kåre Stausø Wigh. Tilmelding her: https://www.inderes.dk/videos/north-media-3-kvartal-2024
