CEO Tom Buehlmann:
It has been another successful quarter for the company with strong growth momentum. Net sales in the third quarter 2021 increased by 44.6 percent to EUR 34.3m compared to EUR 23.7m in the same period last year. Organic growth (excluding currency effects) was 34.0 percent driven mainly by our tech-enabled customers and the EMEA region.

EBITDA, adjusted for items affecting comparability, amounted to EUR 6.6m (3.8) in the quarter corresponding to a margin of 19.4 (16.2) percent. We have increased profitability considerably during the last twelve months, mainly due to positive scale effects on higher volumes. 

We have had a successful first nine-months of 2021 and expect to deliver a strong full year 2021, substantially exceeding our annual target of 20 percent organic growth.  During our IPO roadshow, we talked about the importance of exceeding expectations, and we will most certainly deliver on that in 2021. Looking beyond Q4, I am encouraged by the strong trading momentum that we see continuing into 2022.
