Since the spring, Albert Group has undergone a rapid transformation. We focused firmly on efficiency and financial discipline, restructuring the organisation and cutting costs to align around our core strengths. These actions have delivered results. In the third quarter, Albert achieved its first underlying EBITDA profitability, marking a clear structural turnaround and proving that our new, leaner organisation can grow profitably.

Financial progress and strengthened fundamentals
Net revenue reached SEK 40.8 million, with stable performance in both B2B and B2C segments despite the Strawbees divestment. Recurring subscription revenues remained strong, driven by high retention and improved pricing. Group EBITDA totalled SEK 18.7 million, or SEK 3.0 million adjusted for one-off items, our first ever underlying EBITDA profit and clear evidence that the transformation is working. The Strawbees sale added SEK 27 million in cash and removed SEK 1 million in monthly losses, further strengthening liquidity.

A decentralised market driven organisation
Albert now operates through three focused business units Albert, Sumdog and Swedish Film, each led by a VP with full P&L responsibility and clear operational mandate. Our decentralised model combines local ownership with group-wide strategic direction and capital discipline. It enables faster decisions, stronger customer proximity and sharper market focus, creating better conditions for innovation and profitable growth.

Albert is a learning organisation. We constantly evaluate, adapt and refine how we operate to stay agile and performance-driven. Embracing change is part of our DNA, and we will keep evolving to capture new opportunities.

Focus on core and long-term growth
The next phase is about execution. Our focus remains mathematics and adaptive learning, where Albert has its roots and where demand is accelerating. Falling PISA results and a growing emphasis on measurable learning outcomes create strong tailwinds. With a solid balance sheet, a leaner organisation and clear strategic direction, we are well positioned for sustainable growth and long-term shareholder value.

Fredrik Bengtsson
CEO of Albert
