Operating profit (EBITDA) for Q3 22/23 amounted to DKK -1.8 million compared to DKK 1.9 million in Q3 21/22. Q3 22/23 is negatively influenced by one-time restructuring costs and changes in exchange rates, amounting to a total of approximately -DKK 3.0 million. For the first nine months of the fiscal year 2022/2023, the EBITDA amounted to DKK 5.8 million, compared to DKK 8.8 million in the corresponding period of 2021/2022.

Profit before tax for Q3 22/23 was DKK -2.4 million compared to DKK 1.4 million in Q3 21/22 and for the first nine months of the financial year the result was DKK 4.4 million compared to DKK 7.6 million in the same period 21/22.

Outlook for the financial year 22/23: A change in the trailer sales strategy is expected to result in an improved long-term operating economy. However, this has resulted in a downward revision of the outlook for 2022/23.

Following a review of the lifetime and durability of our rental products, we have made a strategic decision to extend the operational lifetime of our trailers. This will result in an improved long-term operating economy for Freetrailer, and in addition, contribute to a better use of resources within our sharing economy business model.

For the financial year 2022/23, however, it will mean a negative one-time effect in the level of DKK 2 million, as we, in contrast to previous years, do not conduct a large-scale sale of used trailers in the period 1/1 to 30/6. As a consequence, the outlook for revenue for 2022/23 is adjusted to DKK 74-77 million (previously 76-80 million)

EBITDA is expected to be in the level of DKK 8-10 million (previously 10-13 million).

Great confidence for the future

We remain positive that Freetrailer will be able to continue its growth strategy in the coming years, partly based on growth with our existing strong partners and partly through continued international expansion.
