Rusta increased sales, profitability and cash flow in the third quarter of 2025/26, November to January. Net sales amounted to MSEK 3,796 (3,483), an increase of 9.0 percent (7.3). Net sales growth, excluding currency effects, was 10.5 percent (7.6). Growth was driven by an increase in the number of customers and average ticket value, while the share of products in higher price segments continued to rise. Profitability strengthened due to a stronger product mix and well-executed campaigns. The currency effects, which had previously been negative, reversed during the quarter and contributed positively to the margin. A successful Black Week and strong Christmas sales also resulted in a significant improvement in cash flow. During the spring, Rusta is entering an intensive expansion phase, with a total of 13 new stores opening in the first six months of the year.

Göran Westerberg, CEO of Rusta, comments on the third quarter:
“Rusta delivered continued growth and improved profitability in the third quarter, fully in line with our financial targets. The number of customers and average ticket value increased, while customers increasingly chose products in our higher price segments. The shift in the product mix reflects the strength of Rusta’s attractive assortment, a strong price position and increased purchasing power among our customers. This was also evident during Black Week and Christmas sales, when several records were broken. As a result, cash flow was significantly improved, while our inventory is well balanced ahead of the spring sales season.”
