Byggmax entered this year's high season with wellstocked inventories, improved stores, and more efficient e-commerce logistics. Focused efforts around our core offering have contributed to both stronger profitability and growth in the second quarter.
Byggmax increased sales by 5.6 percent compared to the previous year in the second quarter of 2025. Sales performance across the Group's geographical markets showed a relatively consistent development, although currency exchange rate fluctuations had a negative effect on revenue generated outside Sweden. Quarterly growth was strong overall, though performance varied across the period. The quarter started strong, despite continued market conditions characterised by cautious consumers.
During the quarter, several of our core categories developed positively, with increased demand particularly in timber, building boards, and paint. We also saw continued positive development in our enhanced online offering for customized products. In parallel, we streamlined our e-commerce assortment by removing non-core products, allowing us to focus more on our core customer needs.
Profitability in the second quarter strengthened by SEK 53 M compared to the previous year, to an EBITA margin of 10.8 (8.8) percent. The improvement in profitability is driven by increased sales combined with a strong gross margin. Our financial stability has enabled early ordering and payment of goods, which has had a positive impact on the gross margin. In addition, the changes in e-commerce regarding assortment and logistics have contributed to a higher margin.
Despite well-stocked inventories and accelerated supplier payments, our leverage ratio is down to 0.8 (1.5). This is the lowest level since the beginning of 2022, which clearly shows the results of our successful efforts to secure a strong financial position.
The operational performance has been strong during the quarter, with solid control of store operations, low waste and efficient logistics. Operational execution is one of Byggmax's strengths and a crucial factor in our ability to switch between low and high season.
Ahead of this year's high season, we have worked systematically to establish the right conditions across the entire operations, which has contributed to the increased sales. Our inventories have been more effectively replenished than in previous years, reducing the risk of stockouts by half compared to the previous season. Also, implemented changes to the product assortment have led to a lower total inventory value, despite improved availability of our key products.
To ensure full service capacity from the start of the high season, we ramped up staffing in stores earlier than in previous years. We rearranged the layout in many of our stores to enhance customer flow and improve visibility and accessibility of key product categories. Additionally, our employees have been equipped with upgraded digital tools – including enhanced functionality in handheld devices – enabling them to provide customers with relevant product information and support throughout the customer journey.

During the quarter, we opened a new store in Stockholm. This is part of our ongoing efforts to strengthen our presence in strategically attractive geographic areas. The new store complements our existing network in the Stockholm region and increases accessibility for both new and existing customers.
We have established a solid foundation, now it is about execution. Our seasonal preparations delivered results, and the transition from low to high season was successfully managed. With strong operational control and several commercial improvements, we created the conditions for both growth and profitability during the quarter.
This year, we are focused on three strategic priorities: staying close to our customers, driving sales and strong operational efficiency. We emphasize simplicity and speed in execution, which enables us to stay flexible and responsive in our day-to-day operations.
With a clear operational focus, efficient supply chain and improved in-store experience, we continue the high season. Our dedicated employees across the Nordics do a fantastic job every day to ensure that our customers succeed with their DIY projects!
