CEO Giles Palmer comments:
As we conclude the first quarter 2024, I am pleased to report pro forma net sales growth of 1.1 percent to EUR 36.4m compared to EUR 36.0m in the same period last year (1.6 percent in constant currency). Growth was driven by a continued strong development in Media Measurement where we are growing with existing clients as well as bringing on new clients. Cint Exchange sales decreased, mostly driven by lower demand from a few large clients.
The gross margin was 83.3 percent (85.7 percent pro forma 2023) as a result of higher hosting costs in the period. EBITA amounted to EUR 1.5m, up from EUR 0.9m last year due to lower operating expenditures with an EBITA margin of 4.1 percent (2.5 percent pro forma). Net cash flow was negative, caused by negative cash flow from operating activities and amortization payments of loans.
Our strategic implementation plan is on track. Focus for 2024 is to return to growth and drive innovation while retaining profitability and at the same time improve cash flow from operations.
