Concluding a strong year of growth
2024 has been a successful year for Yubico. We achieved key milestones that reinforce our commitment to delivering industry-leading phishing-resistant authentication solutions. Through strategic initiatives, market expansion, and valuable partnerships, Yubico has strengthened its position as a trusted global leader in identity security. As we close out 2024, I'm proud to reflect on our Q4 achievements.
Milestone achievement - listing transition A key accomplishment this quarter was our transition from Nasdaq First North Growth Market to Nasdaq Stockholm, fulfilling a commitment we made when going public in 2023. Completing this move before the promised 18 months underscores our ability to meet regulatory milestones while executing our strategic business plan. This achievement proves our credibility, enables a broader investor base, and strengthens our reputation with customers, partners, and stakeholders worldwide.
Despite tough comparative figures order bookings grew by 13 percent in Q4 to SEK 771 million, driven primarily by existing customers expanding their use of YubiKeys. Since Q4 of last year, Yubico has entered a new era of sustained growth, with both perpetual and subscription bookings reaching a higher baseline and consistently maintaining that level throughout the year. Revenue reached SEK 623 million, reflecting growth of 12 percent. We had expected a higher net sales growth in Q4, but we see that some of our customers have chosen to have their orders delivered in the next quarter. This provides us with a strong foundation for a good start to 2025. Our gross margin improved to 84 percent, supported by favourable currency headwinds which affect our inventory value. Strong bookings resulted in higher sales commissions, while increased expenditure on sales and marketing reflects strategic investments in driving broader customer acquisition and building the foundation for future growth, particularly in EMEA and APJ. As a result, of the lower net sales growth in the quarter, our EBIT stood at SEK 111 million, with an EBIT margin of 18 percent.
We have seen growth across our focus industries and regions. In particular we continue to make significant progress in the telecommunications sector. In January this year we shared details of our collaboration with T-Mobile, to deploy over 200,000 YubiKeys to its teams, vendors, and authorized retail partners. T-Mobile has eliminated the need to change passwords or enter codes, which could be compromised. Instead, they securely and seamlessly authenticate with their YubiKeys. This is yet another example of the momentum in the industry as telcos move away from passwords, SMS codes and legacy Multi-Factor Authentication methods.
With this quarterly announcement, we also share an important leadership update. After four years as Yubico's Chief Financial Officer, Camilla Öberg has decided to retire from her operational role and focus on her board assignments going forward. During her tenure, she has been instrumental in strengthening our financial strategy and operations, contributing significantly to Yubico's growth and success. The search for her successor begins immediately, and Camilla will remain in her role to ensure a seamless transition.
As we move into 2025, Yubico remains committed to making the internet safer. With phishing-resistant authentication now the global standard, our next goal is to protect users throughout their digital lifecycle. Our strategy focuses on three key areas:
With cybersecurity gaining increasing attention, Yubico is well-positioned to lead in identity protection. We look forward to working with our teams, partners, and customers to shape the future of secure authentication.

Interim report
Q
Oct-Dec

2024
Yubico is a global cybersecurity company that between 2020 and 2024 has grown net sales by a compounded annual growth rate ("CAGR") of 40 percent. Through its core product and invention, the YubiKey, Yubico solves the number one cybersecurity issue – use of stolen credentials. These cause 8 out of 10 cybersecurity intrusions, often through so called phishing attacks.
The YubiKey is a multi-factor authentication (MFA) hardware key ensuring that only authorized users have access to sensitive accounts and systems. The authentication solution encompasses an extensive portfolio of proprietary technologies.
To date, YubiKeys have been sold and deployed in more than 160 countries worldwide. Yubico's customers include technology companies, financial services, manufacturing, retail, governments, and the wider public sector,
with customers such as Amazon, Google, Microsoft and the State of Washington using YubiKeys to protect staff, end users and sensitive information from cyberattacks.
YubiKeys have historically only been sold against a onetime payment, also known as on perpetual basis, which gives the customer ownership of the product throughout its lifetime. Since 2020, Yubico also offers a subscriptionbased model, Yubikey as a Service, in which Yubico assumes a larger overall responsibility and retains ownership of the hardware.
Yubico is headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden and Santa Clara, California with manufacturing primarily located in Sweden with minor manufacturing in the US. The company is traded on Nasdaq Stockholm since December 5, 2024.

GROUP DEVELOPMENT OTHER INFORMATION FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This interim report comprise of the Swedish Parent Company Yubico AB ("Yubico"), with corporate registration number 559278-6668, and its subsidiaries. The Group is a global cybersecurity company whose mission is to make the internet safer for everyone. The operation is to conduct cyber security and to provide security products and services linked to authentication and other business activities associated therewith. The address of the head office is Gävlegatan 22, 113 30 Stockholm.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" with some additional disclosures as required by the Swedish Annual Accounts Act.
As of January 1, 2022, Yubico prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards. The Group's transition date to IFRS Accounting Standards is January 1, 2022. The transition to IFRS Accounting Standards has been recognized in accordance with IFRS 1 "First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards". The previously published financial information for 2023 and 2022 prepared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and BFNAR 2012:1 (K3), has been restated to IFRS Accounting Standards. For further information of the transition to IFRS, see Yubico's interim report for the first quarter 2024, note 1, note 4, note 5 and "Appendix Transition to IFRS and function based statement of P/L".
The Parent Company's interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act (1995:1554) chapter 9 "Interim Report" and the standard RFR 2 "Accounting for legal entities". The transition from previous application of the standard BFNAR 2012:1 (K3) to RFR 2 for 2024 had no impact on the Parent Company's income statement and balance sheet neither for the current reporting period nor for comparative figures presented. The Parent Company applies the same accounting policies as the Group with the exceptions specified in note 7 of Yubico's interim report for the first quarter 2024.
In addition to transition to IFRS Accounting Standards and RFR 2, the format for the consolidated Statement of profit or loss and the Parent Company's Income statement has been changed, from operating cost by nature to operating cost by function, i.e. Cost of sales, Research and development, Selling expenses and Administrative expenses. The change has been implemented retrospectively for 2022 and 2023. Detailed information on the restatement of comparative periods is presented in Yubico's interim report for the first quarter 2024 in Note 4 "First time adoption of IFRS and transition to function based statement of profit or loss" and in "Appendix Transition to IFRS and function based statement of P/L" for the Group and in "Appendix Transition to income statement by function – Parent Company" for the Parent Company.
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates for accounting purposes. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be reasonable under current circumstances. Actual outcome may differ from the estimates if the estimates or circumstances change.
All financial assets and liabilities are measured at amortized cost, which is considered to be a reasonable approximation of fair value due to short durations.
These condensed financial statements are presented in Swedish kronor (SEK) which is the Parent Company's functional currency. All amounts are presented in million Swedish kronor ("SEK m"), unless otherwise indicated. Rounding differences may occur. Disclosures in accordance with IAS 34.16A are provided in the financial statements, notes and other parts of the interim report.
A correction of previously reported subscription revenue was made in Q2 2024. The correction has been made retrospectively for comparability, see note 4 in the Q2 interim report for further information.

GROUP DEVELOPMENT OTHER INFORMATION FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For perpetual, the performance obligation is satisfied at the time of delivery and revenue is recognized at that point in time. For subscription, the security solution is consumed by the customer through continuous access to the security service including the access to Yubico's intellectual property through the license and use of the hardware key over the contract term period. Accordingly, revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract period.

This section includes certain alternative performance measures (APM) which are not defined under IFRS. These are used by Yubico as Yubico believes that these APMs provide valuable information for investors and other stakeholders to evaluate the financial performance of Yubico. As not all companies calculate financial measures in the same way, they are not always comparable with similar measures used by other companies. These measures should therefore not be regarded as a substitute for measures defined under IFRS.
