Revenue for the third quarter decreased by 7 percent to SEK 2,990 M (3,227), while the gross margin strengthened to 4.2 percent (4.0), in line with Ework's strategic focus on more profitable business. Operating profit (EBIT) amounted to SEK 28 M (39). The quarter was characterized by continued weak economic conditions, particularly evident in the Swedish market, as well as increased price pressure within the public sector. At the same time, several measures were implemented to strengthen competitiveness through improved scalability, intensified sales efforts, and the development of digital solutions. Several important framework agreements were extended or expanded, reinforcing the company's position ahead of a market recovery.
