Group revenues impacted by the new warehouse

Kid Group reported revenues of MNOK 902.0 for Q3 2025, representing a year-over-year growth of 1.7%. The quarter was positively impacted by strong seasonal product sales across channels, particularly spring and summer assortments distributed from the Swedish and Norwegian warehouse setups, prior to the logistics transition.

The implementation of the new common warehouse in Sweden introduced temporary logistical constraints, which especially affected the availability of non-seasonal and autumn products in store. This resulted in an estimated revenue shortfall in the range of MNOK 30-40 this quarter. While we are not satisfied with the limited product flow from the warehouse this quarter, this is a consequence of transitioning to a new logistics setup. The Group is currently paying a short-term price for a long-term gain, as the new common warehouse is expected to significantly strengthen operational efficiency and represents a critical foundation for continued ambitious expansion and growth plans.

Despite these logistical constraints, digital channel performance remained strong in the quarter. Customers increasingly turned to online platforms to access products unavailable in our physical stores, confirming that the commercial assortment and the revenue impact was driven by product availability rather than underlying demand. Online revenues from both seasonal and non-seasonal products were solid, and the Group remains confident in its long-term assortment strategy.

Category development continue driving growth

While reported revenue growth this quarter was somewhat softer, mainly due to temporary logistical challenges, we remain confident in the underlying performance and the impact of our targeted initiatives. Underlying growth continues across focused categories, particularly bathroom,

home wear, kitchenware, and lighting, where our ongoing category development efforts have proven and delivered strong commercial results. Looking ahead to 2026, we will continue to develop and expand our assortment within garden and outdoor furniture, as well as lighting, supporting our ambitious long-term growth targets.

Ramping up the new common warehouse in Sweden

Following the 2019 acquisition of Hemtex, Kid Group operated separate logistics setups for Norway and the other Nordic markets. To capitalise upon operational synergies and enhance efficiency, it was in 2023 decided to expand the facilities in Sweden, establishing one central warehouse for the Group. The new warehouse represents a crucial and strategic foundation for future growth plan and ambitions. In addition to revenue impact as described above, the transition to the new common warehouse in Sweden has temporarily impacted cost efficiency, primarily due to number of worked hours in the logistical operation. As communicated in Q2, full operational efficiency and cost savings will take time to materialise as systems, automation and personnel stabilise. Improvements in logistics operations are progressing, although full efficiency had not yet been achieved by the end of Q3.

Non-recurring operating expenses associated with the transition have been expected throughout 2025. These include costs related to the relocation of goods and temporary double rent linked to the subleasing process of the Lier warehouse. The total estimated expense for the full year amounts to approximately MNOK 30, of which MNOK 8 was booked in Q3 as OPEX and rental costs.

In addition to the MNOK 30, ramp-up inefficiencies have further contributed to elevated operating expenses. These inefficiencies encompass increased employee benefit expenses, external workforce hours, and higher freight costs driven by strong Online sales, volumes and suboptimal shipping during the initial implementation phase of the new logistics setup. The cumulative impact of these inefficiencies is estimated at approximately MNOK 10 for the third quarter.

Status of Norwegian warehouse exit

The process of subleasing the warehouse in Lier was initiated in early 2024. Discussions with a potential tenant ultimately stalled in Q2 2025, and an impairment was subsequently recognised. We are now in dialogue with several parties regarding a partial sublease or full termination of the facility through a new potential tenant. In the interim, approximately 15% of the warehouse facility has been subleased under a short-term agreement. We remain confident and focused securing a long-term solution.

Store portfolio development

During the quarter, Kid Group completed three store projects across Kid Interior and Hemtex, continuing the high level of project activity seen in the first half of 2025. In addition, one new store was opened and one was closed. As of quarter-end, Kid Interior had signed contracts for three new stores and two Extended stores in Norway. Hemtex had signed one new store and two Extended stores in Sweden. One of these new stores is scheduled to open during 2025, with the remaining openings planned for the first half of 2026.

Postponement of EU and Germany digital pilot

In Q2 2024, we initiated preparations to pilot selected markets outside the Nordic region and Estonia. While the launch of the low-risk ecommerce pilot was originally scheduled for H2 2025, the initiative has been postponed to 2026. The decision reflects our prioritisation of core operations by stabilising the ongoing transition and rampup of the new logistical setup in Sweden.

Kid Group reports 1.7% revenue growth in the third quarter, primarily driven by strong performance in the digital channels across both Kid Interior and Hemtex. This growth was partially offset by softer in-store sales, impacted by product availability constraints for both segments. The gross margin declined slightly year-over-year, mainly due to a higher level of campaign activity. Operating expenses ("OPEX") increased, reflecting inefficiencies related to the transition and ramp-up of the new central warehouse in Sweden, as well as general salary adjustments, inflationary pressure, and an expanded floor space in the store portfolio.

Group revenues

Total Group revenues increased by 1.7% (+6.7%), impacted by limited availability of non-seasonal and autumn products in stores. In constant currency, revenues increased by 0.5% (+4.4%). Net new stores openings contributed positively to overall performance.

We are experiencing positive underlying growth across focused categories, with bathroom, home wear, kitchenware, and lighting showing particular strength this quarter. Like-for-like revenue declined -1.7% (+3.0%) in the quarter, calculated on a constant currency basis. Both Kid Interior and Hemtex experienced negative like-for-like revenue development in stores, primarily due to product availability constraints, partly offset by strong digital performance.

Group Online revenues increased by 26.3% (+1.4%) in the quarter, calculated with constant currency. The Online revenues reached MNOK 129.5 (MNOK 102.6), representing 14.4% (11.4%) of total Group revenues. Hemtex and Kid Interior both experienced Online growth, with increases of 30.2% (-15.4%) and 23.5% (+17.6%), respectively. Including click-and-collect, the online share was 19.8% (16.1%).

Categories introduced since 2022 generated revenues of MNOK 30.1 (MNOK 29.3). The development is impacted by number of customers in store and product availability. These new categories, along with ongoing category development initiatives, are expected to be key drivers of future customer traffic and sales growth, supported by the Group's attractive and commercial store concept.

Gross margin

Gross margin decreased by -0.3 percentage points compared to the previous year, due to Hemtex. This decrease is mainly attributed to a higher level of campaign activity during the quarter compared to previous year, partly offset by lower share of freight costs in the cost of goods sold ("COGS") compared to previous year.

Non-recurring items and transition costs

Approximately MNOK 8 was booked as other OPEX and rental costs during the quarter, and these costs are considered non-recurring. Additionally, this quarter was impacted by inefficiencies estimated to approximately MNOK 10 and is related to the transition to the new central warehouse in Sweden. These costs primarily comprise employee benefit expenses and external workforce hours incurred during the transition and rampup phase, as well as freight costs associated with strong digital sales and . Notably, these freight costs are recognised as other OPEX, whereas freight to stores is classified under cost of goods sold ("COGS").

Financial Review for the Kid Group

Employee benefit expenses decreased by MNOK 5.1 to MNOK 183.2:

  • MNOK 4.3 in LFL stores mainly due to general salary increase.
  • MNOK 3.7 increase from net new stores.
  • MNOK 6.0 in HQ costs due to general salary increase and more employees.
  • MNOK -9.0 in Logistics due to the transition to the new Swedish warehouse. During the transition and ramp-up phase, a high proportion of the workforce was external and therefore classified under other operating expenses. Going forward, some of these roles will be transitioned to permanent in-house positions, while most will be phased out when the transition period is finalised and new processes and systems are stabilised. This will result in a shift in cost classification from other operating expenses to employee benefit expenses.
  • MNOK -12.5 mainly due to lower accrued bonus.
  • MNOK 2.4 due to changes in SEKNOK exchange rate.

Other operating expenses increased by MNOK 43.0 to MNOK 170.2:

MNOK 21.4 in LFL stores, mainly related to index adjustment of rental costs, store expansion activity. Additionally, this quarter was impacted by suboptimal shipping methods related to the initial phase of the new logistics setup in Sweden and strong development in Online revenues, contributing to higher distribution costs.

  • MNOK 6.8 increase in net new stores.
  • MNOK -2.6 from decreased marketing costs.
  • MNOK 1.0 in HQ costs mainly related to transportation of goods from Norway to the new warehouse, partly offset by lower IT-costs.
  • MNOK 29.4 in Logistics costs related to increased use of external working hours in KIL AB due to increased activity and use of external workforce hours in the transition and ramp-up of the warehouse setup for Kid Group.
  • MNOK -14.9 related to change in IFRS 16 effects, reflecting the increase in rental cost in Logistics, HQ and stores due to index regulations, re-negotiated contracts and net new stores.
  • MNOK 1.9 due to changes in SEKNOK exchange rate.

EBITDA decreased by MNOK 31.7 to MNOK 204.7.

Depreciation and impairment increased compared to last year mainly due to investments in the warehouse in Sweden, IFRS 16 effect related to the rental portfolio and store projects.

Net financial expenses of MNOK 23.7 (MNOK 25.0) relates to net interest expenses of MNOK 11.9 (MNOK 8.1), net other financial expenses of MNOK 1.6 (MNOK 0.7), net FX income of MNOK +6.9 (MNOK 2.0) and IFRS 16 interest expenses of MNOK 17.1 (MNOK 14.2).

Liquidity and borrowings

Excluding IFRS 16 effects, net interest-bearing debt was MNOK 1.047.9 (MNOK 784.3) at the end of the quarter, corresponding to a gearing ratio of 1.96x (1.30x) of LTM EBITDA. The Group had cash and available credit facilities of MNOK 182.3 (MNOK 329.4) as of 30 September 2025 and has a satisfactorily liquidity situation. The facilities include an unused term-loan facility of MNOK 148.3.

Cash flow from operations in the period is negatively affected by inventory build up. This quarter's investments are related to new stores, store projects, IT initiatives and the new warehouse in Sweden. Cash flow from financing includes use of overdraft facilities, lease payments and net interests.

Capital expenditures (CAPEX) amounted to MNOK 43.2 (MNOK 28.6) during Q3, mainly relating to store openings and store projects. Investments related to the warehouse project in Sweden accounted for MNOK 4.4 (MNOK 9.8) in the guarter.

¹ Calculated in local currency

The principle for allocating logistics costs and balance sheet items between Kid Interior and Hemtex was changed in February 2025 following the *Fully-owned stores. Hemtex has an additional 11 franchise stores implementation of the new common warehouse. Consequently, the figures are not fully comparable on segment level.

Revenues increased 1.9% (+8.7%) compared to the same period last year. Growth was primarily driven by a higher number of Online customers, partly offset by physical stores primarily due to product availability constraints. Average basket size contributed negatively, reflecting the product mix across sales channels. The number of shopping days was 79 (79) in total for the quarter.

Online revenues increased by +23.5% (+17.6%) to MNOK 73.9 (MNOK 59.8).

Gross margin was unchanged from the previous year, with 61.6%. This quarter's margin is negatively impacted by level of campaign activity during the quarter compared to previous year, partly offset by lower share of freight costs in the cost of goods sold ("COGS").

Employee benefit expenses decreased by MNOK 9.5:

  • MNOK 2.6 in LFL stores mainly due to general salary increase slightly offset by less working hours.
  • MNOK 0.7 due to net new stores.
  • MNOK -10.0 due to lower accrued bonus.
  • MNOK 3.5 in HQ costs related to

  • number of employees and general salary increase, partly offset by allocated central costs to Hemtex

  • MNOK -6.3 in Logistics due to the transition to the new Swedish warehouse. During the ramp-up phase, a high proportion of the workforce was external and therefore classified under other operating expenses. Going forward, some of these roles will be transitioned to permanent in-house positions, while most will be phased out when the transition period is finalised and new processes and systems are stabilised. This will result in a shift in cost classification from other operating expenses to employee benefit expenses.

Other operating expenses increased by MNOK 30.7:

• MNOK 16.5 in LFL stores mainly related to index adjustment of rental costs and store expansion activity. Additionally, this quarter was impacted by suboptimal shipping methods related to the initial phase of the new logistics setup in Sweden and strong development in Online revenues, contributing to higher distribution costs.

  • MNOK 2.0 in net new stores.
  • MNOK 0.1 from increased marketing costs due to change in the campaign activity plan.
  • MNOK -0.9 in HQ mainly related to IT and allocated central costs to Hemtex, partly offset by transportation costs of goods from the warehouse in Norway to the new warehouse in Sweden.
  • MNOK 22.6 in Logistics due the transition and ramp-up of the new Swedish warehouse and use of external workforce hours.
  • MNOK -9.6 related to change in IFRS 16 effects, reflecting the increase in rental cost included in Logistics, HQ and stores due to index regulations, re-negotiated contracts and net new stores.

Store projects continue to support profitable growth across Kid Group, including refurbishments, enlargements, and relocations. During the first nine months of 2025, Kid Interior completed 11 store projects and 4 Extended stores, alongside 2 new openings and 1 closure. For the last quarter of 2025, six additional store projects are scheduled for Kid Interior.

Revenues decreased -1.8% (-2.3%)

compared to the same quarter last year, calculated on a constant currency basis. The development was driven by a reduction in number of customers in physical stores primarily due to product availability constraints, partly offset by Online customers. Average basket size had a negative impact, reflecting the product mix across sales channels. The number of shopping days was 92 (92) in total for the quarter.

Online revenues increased by 30.2% (-15.4%) to MNOK 55.7 (MNOK 42.8), based on a constant currency calculation.

Measured on a constant currency basis, Hemtex 24h revenues slightly increased to MNOK 4.8 (MNOK 4.7).

Gross margin decreased by -1.0 percentage points to 62.0%. This quarter's margin is negatively impacted by level of campaign activity during the quarter compared to previous year, offset by lower share of freight costs in the cost of goods sold ("COGS").

Employee benefit expenses increased by MNOK 4.4:

  • MNOK 1.6 in LFL stores mainly due to general salary increase.
  • MNOK 3.0 due to net new stores.
  • MNOK -2.4 due to lower accrued bonus.
  • MNOK 2.5 in HQ due to allocated central costs from Kid Interior to Hemtex.
  • MNOK -2.7 in Logistics due to Kid Interior receiving a proportion of the employee expenses in Kid International Logistic AB ("KIL AB") from February 2025.
  • MNOK 2.4 due to changes in SEKNOK exchange rate.

Other operating expenses increased by MNOK 12.2:

  • MNOK 4.8 in LFL stores, mainly related to index adjustment of rental costs and store expansions, as well as higher operating costs.
  • MNOK 4.9 in net new stores.
  • MNOK -2.7 from decrease of marketing cost due to change in the campaign activity plan.

  • MNOK 1.9 in HQ mainly due to allocated central costs from Kid Interior to Hemtex.

  • MNOK 6.8 in Logistics mainly due to increased use of external workforce hours in KIL AB driven up by the transition and ramp-up of the new Swedish warehouse.
  • MNOK -5.4 related to change in IFRS 16 effects, reflecting the increase in rental cost in Logistics, HQ and stores due to index regulations, renegotiated contracts and net new stores.
  • MNOK 1.9 due to changes in SEKNOK exchange rate.

Store projects continue to contribute to profitable growth across Kid Group, including refurbishments, enlargements, and relocations. In the first nine months of 2025, Hemtex completed nine store projects and opened four new stores. For the final quarter of 2025, three additional store projects are planned, including the first Extended store in Sweden.

There have been no significant events after the end of the reporting period.

²Fixed interest rate is secured through an interest rate swap of MNOK 395 maturing August 2029 and subject to hedge accounting

³The agreement with Nordea includes two optional one-year extension periods. If both options are exercised, the latest possible maturity date will be 30 March 2030.

During the quarter, additions to Right of Use (RoU) Assets were primarily driven by new and renegotiated rental agreements for stores as well as index adjustments. Additions to Property, Plant, and Equipment (PPE) were mainly associated with new store openings, refurbishments, and the establishment of the new common warehouse.

Due to the commencement of the new common warehouse and the termination of the warehouse in Norway, a subleasing process for the warehouse in Lier was initiated early 2024 and remains ongoing. During Q1 2025, Kid Group reached a preliminary agreement with a prospective tenant and the landlord regarding the terms for transferring the lease. However, in Q2 this agreement fell through due to external factors. Management work actively on identifying a solution. As a result, the warehouse will be empty for a period and an impairment assessment was performed on the right-of-use ("RoU") asset, resulting in an impairment expense of MNOK 25.0 in Q2 2025.
