Oslo, October 29, 2025 - Smartoptics Group ASA (Smartoptics, OSE: SMOP) today reported revenues of USD 19.0 million in the third quarter of 2025, representing a growth of 46.2 percent. The gross margin for the quarter reached 49.5 percent, up from 47.4 percent in the same period last year. Third quarter EBITDA was USD 2.4 million (Q3 2024: 1.1 million). Excluding non-recurring cost of USD 0.7 million related to the uplisting to Euronext Oslo Børs, EBITDA was USD 3.1 million, equaling an EBITDA margin of 16.5 percent (8.3 percent).
"Smartoptics continues to deliver strong results aligned with our long-term growth strategy. This quarter marks our second consecutive all-time high quarterly revenue. Our scalable business model continues to drive profitability," says Magnus Grenfeldt, CEO of Smartoptics, and continues:
"The momentum we see in Smartoptics reflects continued investment appetite across all our customer segments, particularly related to data centers, where the strong demand is partly related to the rapid adoption of AI technologies. We are proud to have secured orders from leading neo-scalers and large operators across EMEA and the US, validating our strategic focus to deliver competitive solutions for larger accounts."
In the third quarter, Smartoptics saw growth across all product areas. This was mainly driven by the range of high performance new-generation products launched in 2024 and 2025. Additionally, the business area Optical Devices is increasingly showing momentum.
Earlier this year, Smartoptics launched its ambition to increase market share with two to three times in relevant markets, targeting an EBIT margin in the range of 13-16 percent.
"Our confidence is grounded in the strength of our flexible, best-in-class solutions, our attractive modern software suite, growing traction among large accounts, and our agility as a mid-sized industry challenger," said Magnus Grenfeldt.
The report and presentation for the third quarter 2025 are enclosed.
