Acast today announces a new financial target framework, reflecting confidence in the company's strategic position and profitable growth trajectory.
Updated financial targets
- Organic net sales growth (CAGR) exceeding 15% in the period 2025 to 2028.
- Operating profit (EBIT) margin of 10% by 2028.
The company's conviction is rooted in its unique position within a large, growing, and significantly undermonetized market. The trajectory is supported by:
- Global scale: Strong foundation in the UK and Nordics, with significant potential in the US and Continental Europe.
- Operational discipline: Continued broad-based local market profitability improvements and effectively scaling against group-wide global costs.
- Efficient growth strategy: Increasing campaign sizes and elevated use of low-touch channels to enhance scalability and margin expansion.
The new framework supersedes all previous financial targets. It should be clear that the company still remains committed to achieving the previous financial goals of 3-5% adjusted EBITDA margin and positive operating cash flow for the full-year 2025.
"Our new targets reflect the power of our strategy and our operational confidence. By leveraging our global scale and efficient growth strategy, we are setting a clear course to deliver strong profitable growth over the coming years, and reach a 10% EBIT margin by 2028. The margin target is a milestone, not the ultimate goal, in creating long-term value for all stakeholders." says Acast CEO Greg Glenday.
The financial targets will be presented at the Q3 2025 report presentation being held today at 10:00 AM CET.
