"In Q3, we grew revenue by 10.4%, once again supported by ongoing recovery in the Danish part of the Group combined with strong growth in Netcompany-Intrasoft, Norway and in the Netherlands.
Margins continued to improve during Q3 - both compared to the same quarter last year and from the levels realised in Q2 this year - as anticipated.
The average number of FTEs increased by 4.2% compared to the same time last year, and at the end of Q3 we employed more than 8,200 highly talented professionals throughout the Group.
It truly pleases me to see that so many talented IT professionals choose to work with Netcompany, and together with our customers, to develop, implement and operate critical IT infrastructure throughout Europe.
We maintain our financial guidance for the year and initiate a new share buyback programme of DKK 250m running to the end of January 2025 bringing the total share buyback programme initiated for the year to DKK 800m. We also remain committed to our midterm targets for 2026."
André Rogaczewski, Netcompany CEO and Co-founder
