Prevas publishes Interim Report for the second quarter of 2025

Challenging market situation, lower earnings and continued positive trend in Finland.

Prevas increased its turnover during the second quarter by just over 3 percent to SEK 408.8 million and delivered an EBITA of SEK 20.7 million, corresponding to an EBITA margin of 5.1 percent. Cash flow was strong, amounting to SEK 49.6 million. Profit/loss was affected by a lower utilization rate, restructuring costs of approximately SEK 6 million and a negative calendar effect corresponding to approximately SEK 5 million. Adjusted for calendar effect and restructuring costs EBITA amounted to SEK 31.7 million (7.7%). Profit per share after dilution was SEK 0.73.

During the quarter, we have seen a market that has remained cautious, while demand is increasing in the fields of defense, cybersecurity and energy. We are witnessing both growth and good profitability in these sectors, while certain regions, sectors and areas of expertise, such as software, continue to face challenges.
