Q4-25: Further progress and advancement towards long-term goals
Oslo, 12 February 2026: The fourth quarter concludes a year in which Komplett Group delivered consistent profitability improvements, supported by better margins and proactive cost control, as well as a stable financial position with solid liquidity. During the year, measures to optimise operations and accelerate profitability have been reinforced to unlock the group's potential.
Operating revenue increased by 5.1 per cent in the fourth quarter of 2025, from NOK 4 883 million to NOK 5 132 million (+2.4 per cent in constant currency). The overall sales development was supported by continued positive market dynamics and another strong peak season.
The positive gross margin trajectory seen throughout 2025 continued in the quarter with a moderate uplift of 0.1 pp. The year-over-year development reflects tougher comparisons as well as the absence of certain temporary effects present in the comparable quarter last year. The gross margin reached 14.0 per cent in the fourth quarter, resulting in a 5.2 per cent improvement in gross profit (+2.5 per cent in constant currency).
Operating expenses declined by 1.9 per cent in constant currency as the cost and restructuring measures offset the effects from general inflation and growth investments. The implemented measures will be reinforced as required with the aim of maintaining a stable and controlled cost base.
EBIT adj. amounted to NOK 102 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, representing an uplift of NOK 25 million compared with NOK 77 million in the same period of 2024.
In light of the delayed recovery in the Swedish entities, non-cash impairment charges of NOK 536 million have been recognised, which reduces the balance sheet risk associated with these operations. These impairments do not affect the underlying operation or the group's future opportunities in Sweden, where the brands hold a very strong position.
At the end of December, the group's leverage ratio, defined as NIBD / LTM EBITDA (adjusted for certain items), was 1.4x. The net debt level at year-end was positively affected by a temporarily high liquidity position which is expected to seasonally adjust during Q1.
Looking ahead, the group notes a generally favourable market environment, although innovation cycles and the supply of memory components may become more challenging moving forward.
"The fourth quarter represented another solid peak season for the group, showing improvement on a strong corresponding period in the previous year. Operations in Norway continued to perform well, with especially good progress in the highly competitive gaming segment. Our sales development was however impacted by ongoing efforts to prioritise margin quality across the NetOnNet footprint in Sweden and Norway," says Ros-Marie Grusén, President and CEO of Komplett ASA.
"The group has made meaningful progress along its strategic and operational priorities, but continued attention will be required to fully unlock the group's long-term potential, and we will continue to develop our customer offering while strengthening our operational efficiency," Grusén adds.
