Letter from the CEO

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

In the final quarter of 2024, Tradedoubler experienced a notable acceleration in business performance compared to previous quarters, delivering strong results.

Q4 and Full-Year 2024 Results

Adjusted for currency fluctuations, revenue in Q4 increased by 5% year-over-year to 619 M SEK, while Gross Profit rose by 15% to 137 M SEK. EBITDA, adjusted for change-related items, reached 41 M SEK, compared to 30 M SEK in the prior year. For the full year 2024, revenue totaled 2 113 M SEK (+5%), with Gross Profit at 458 M SEK (+10%) and EBITDA (adjusted for change-related items) at 96 M SEK, up from 92 M SEK.

This year-end report marks the first time we are presenting revenue and EBITDA figures for Tradedoubler's core business segments: Partner Marketing and Influencer Marketing (Metapic). These figures confirm the trends highlighted in previous reports: Partner Marketing encountered challenges due to macroeconomic conditions, particularly in Q2 and Q3, while Influencer Marketing demonstrated significant growth.

  • Partner Marketing revenue grew by 4% in Q4 and 4% for the year.
  • Influencer Marketing revenue surged by 54% in Q4 and 50% for the full year. This was achieved both by healthy growth rates in already existing countries as well as the successful launch of additional countries in the years 2023 and 2024.
  • Partner Marketing's EBITDA remained steady in Q4 but declined on an annual basis, primarily due to challenges faced by R Advertising, Tradedoubler's Email Marketing subsidiary, which has been impacted by regulatory and technological shifts. The EBITDA margin of Partner Marketing rose to 7% in Q4.
  • Influencer Marketing's EBITDA saw remarkable growth, reaching 14 M SEK in Q4 and 27 M SEK for the full year—nearly five times the 2023 figure. It showed an EBITDA margin of 22% in Q4, which is around three times the EBITDA margin of our Partner Marketing business.

Over the past few years, we have worked extensively to realign Tradedoubler's business, creating a solid foundation for scalable, long-term growth. In addition to strengthening our platform and infrastructure, we have restructured our teams across Europe to drive profitability while expanding into new areas such as Influencer Marketing and Mobile Marketing.

As a result, Tradedoubler has successfully evolved into an international digital marketing technology company, demonstrating consistent growth and increasing profitability. These efforts are now reflected in our financial performance, and we are committed to providing more transparency and regular updates on our progress moving forward.

Vision and Strategy

Building on our achievements, we have redefined Tradedoubler's strategy for the coming years.

Our vision is to establish Tradedoubler as a global leader in digital marketing technology, expanding across key growth channels, including Partner Marketing, Influencer Marketing, and Mobile Marketing. This will involve both international expansion and diversification into additional digital marketing segments.

To achieve this, we will pursue a combination of operational and strategic initiatives:

  • Operationally, we will extend our presence to new global markets and enter complementary digital marketing segments.
  • Strategically, we will pursue acquisitions to accelerate market entry and channel expansion. An active M&A strategy will be in the heart of our activities.

With all our channels operating in markets that are expected to experience strong double-digit market growth in the coming years, we are confident that Tradedoubler will capitalize on this momentum - growing in line with market trends while expanding internationally and vertically, both operationally and through acquisitions. Our long-term ambition is to triple revenue to more than 6 BN SEK while significantly improving profitability.

As a first step, we have decided to establish a presence in the United States during 2025. Today we already have more than 150 clients in North America. This base will be the fundament for setting up a legal entity and opening an office there.

Following the successful expansion of our Influencer Marketing business across Europe and the launch of our Partner Marketing operations in Australia (with an office in Sydney), we believe this is the right time to enter the world's largest digital marketing market—unlocking significant new growth opportunities.

We look forward to the future with confidence and remain committed to delivering longterm value for our shareholders.

Thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely yours,

Matthias Stadelmeyer President and CEO

Adjusted EBITDA during the interim period amounted to SEK 96 M (92), the increase primarily relates to better results from Influencer Marketing, as well as lower costs within the group area.

Adjusted EBITDA during the quarter amounted to SEK 41 M (30), which is an increase of 37% compared to the same period last year. The large increase is two folded. Partner Marketing business is for the first time this year on similar levels as last year, which is a big step forward in the current market environment.

The gross profit margins have also increased due to a more diverse business mix compared to the same period last year. The number of employees in influencer marketing remained stagnant during the fourth quarter, but is expected to increase going forward.

Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital, referring to EBITDA reduced by paid taxes, paid interest and non-cash items amounted to SEK 110 M (72) during the year.
