Report this content

“Ework is reporting its best quarter ever, on a really strong consultant market. The revenue and profitability trend remains positive, and with over 11,250 Ework consultants on assignment, we set a new record once again. EBIT was up by 25% to SEK 23.5 M, our best Q3 earnings to date. The share of transactions executed on our digital consulting platform Verama continued to grow, as did its user base of clients and consultants.”

Extract from CEO Zoran Covic’s commentary to the Interim Report

Third quarter 2021 compared to 2020

  • Net sales increased by 14% to SEK 2,815 M (2,467). The increase is due to a significant increase in customer demand and successful sales to existing and new customers.
  • EBIT increased by 25% to SEK 23.5 M (18.8) following an increase in sales, lower expenses and a larger share of high-margin business.
  • Profit after financial items increased by 32% to SEK 23.3 M (17.7).
  • Order intake increased by 28% to SEK 3,054 M (2,389).
  • The number of consultants on assignment was the highest ever, 11,254.
  • Earnings per share after tax before and after dilution were SEK 1.06 (0.87), an increase by 22%.
  • Previously announced cost savings will to some extent be reduced during 2021 by more recent decisions to focus on growth and future profitability. In other respects, the previously communicated outlook remains unchanged.

First nine months 2021 compared to 2020

  • Net sales increased by 4% to SEK 9,327 M (9,000).
  • EBIT increased by 9% to SEK 84.5 M (77.2).
  • Profit after financial items increased by 17% to SEK 83.0 M (70.7).
