"We reported net revenue of SEK 1,436 million in Q2 2025, representing an organic decline of 11 percent YoY. Gross margin improved by 2 percentage points YoY, driven by the growing contribution of our direct-to-consumer (DTC) business. DTC now accounts for 39 percent of total net revenue - up from 34 percent in Q2 2024.
Due to topline pressure, adjusted EBITDAC declined YoY to SEK 374 million in the quarter as our cost savings program could not fully offset the impact. At the same time, we saw a headwind stemming from FX of approximately SEK 30 million impacting adjusted EBITDAC compared to Q2 2024. Despite this we were able to maintain an adjusted EBITDAC margin of 26 percent. Free cash flow remained strong at SEK 254 million in the quarter, totaling SEK 1,089 million over the past 12 months.
Our strategic review is advancing as planned. The game transfers and communicated closures in the quarter are the first steps in a broader plan to focus on fewer franchises in our portfolio and invest in long-term winners. Our focus on selective divestment or discontinuation of certain assets within the group remains. We will continue to communicate transparently as additional steps are taken."
Alexis Bonte, Group President and CEO, Stillfront
