Bang & Olufsen A/S is a renowned Danish company specializing in high-end audio products and consumer electronics, known for its unique design and craftsmanship in the luxury audio market. In its latest earnings report for the third quarter of the fiscal year 2024/25, Bang & Olufsen reported a modest revenue growth of 2% in local currencies, driven by strong performances in the EMEA and Americas regions, despite a decline in the APAC region. The company achieved a record-high gross margin of 55.4% and reported a positive EBIT margin before special items of 3.8%, alongside a net profit and a positive free cash flow of DKK 18 million. Key financial highlights include a 15% growth in like-for-like sell-out, a 2.8% increase in revenue year-on-year, and a significant improvement in gross margin by 2.2 percentage points. The company also raised DKK 217 million through a capital increase to support its strategic growth plans, including the launch of Bang & Olufsen Atelier for custom-made products and the expansion of its retail presence in key markets. Looking ahead, Bang & Olufsen maintains a cautious outlook for the fiscal year 2024/25, expecting revenue growth at the lower end of its guidance range due to challenges in the APAC region, while anticipating a mid-range EBIT margin before special items and a free cash flow at the higher end of its forecast.
