MESSAGE FROM THE CEO
The year has started with growth and margin expansion
Following the first quarter, I can conclude that we are back to delivering improved profit margins for both EBITA and Cash EBIT, in line with our long-term profitability target. This margin expansion reflects a combination of higher revenue, disciplined cost control, and improved efficiency. Excluding acquisitions, we have not increased headcount while revenue continues to grow. From an M&A perspective, the quarter got off to a strong start as we completed two acquisitions: the Dutch company Autonet and the Swedish company Infometric. Both are high-quality vertical software businesses that will contribute positively to our growing Group. We welcomed just over 75 new colleagues.
The start of 2026 feels like a repeat of last year. After a strong finish to 2025 and a solid beginning to this year, we now see a more cautious business environment, lower investment appetite, and reduced willingness among potential sellers, driven by global uncertainty. Despite this, our organic growth is developing as expected, and we are not seeing any material customer churn, instead we continue to experience stability and sustained confidence from our customers. Organic growth in our subscription-based revenue of 6 percent was driven equally by innovation/upsell and price adjustments.
Total revenue for the first quarter amounted to SEK 955 million, an increase of 9 percent. Our recurring revenue totaled SEK 839 million, of which subscription-based revenue accounted for SEK 662 million and transaction-based revenue
for SEK 177 million. Other revenue increased to SEK 21 million compared with SEK 8 million, reflecting the typical revenue mix of one of our most recent acquisitions (Infometric). EBITA amounted to SEK 244 million compared with SEK 220 million, and the margin increased to 26 percent compared with 25 percent last year. Cash EBIT amounted to SEK 197 million compared with SEK 178 million, an increase of 11 percent; here too, the margin improved by 1 percentage point to 21 percent. Currency had a negative impact on both revenue and earnings compared with the prior year by approximately 3 percent.
Cash flow follows the normal seasonal pattern, demonstrating the strength of our stable business model built on recurring revenue. Cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK 784 million compared with SEK 757 million for the corresponding period last year. Net debt in relation to EBITDA amounted to 2.0 and remained at the same level as at year-end, despite completing two acquisitions. During the quarter, we issued a SEK 700 million bond loan under our MTN program. The bond was well received and oversubscribed. Following the two acquisitions, we continue to be well positioned for further acquisitions.
We continue to invest in our mission-critical products. AI is being used both internally in the development process and in a growing number of customer applications. With each passing month, we see more strong examples that are shared

across the Group through our internal forums, accelerating adoption. This is clear evidence of one of the many benefits for a vertical software company of being part of a larger group: the ability to benefit from and contribute to shared experience, thereby creating value for both customers and shareholders.
I hope to see you at the Annual General Meeting on April 28.

Sales broken down by business unit and customer
Vitec is an agile and decentralized organization, in which every business unit is responsible for its own market and customers. This enables decision-making close to the customer, often in collaboration with them, and with the involvement of employees with in-depth industry expertise and long-term customer relationships.
Operating across multiple niche markets and countries, we have good distribution of revenue in terms of both geography and area of operation. Although we operate in various niche markets, we still engage in essentially the same business: we develop and deliver standardized software. Some are complete enterprise systems, while others provide support for specific aspects of our customers' operations.
As we continue to acquire profitable vertical software companies, we expect our risk diversification to improve further.
Vitec worldwide
Vitec has operations in 13 countries and customers in over 50 countries worldwide. We consider Belgium, Denmark, Finland, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland and Sweden to be home markets, as our business units have headquarters there.

Sustainability in the business model
At Vitec, sustainability is a fundamental factor for our success. Our approach is grounded in environmental, social and economic considerations. Vitec's products generate positive societal impacts and mitigate risks, while promoting responsible business practices that enable our employees' expertise and creativity to flourish. Vitec embraces an entrepreneurial approach to sustainability. Our driving force is to meet the needs of today without compromising the opportunities of future generations.
In addition to internal guidelines, efforts are guided by the Paris Agreement, the UN Declaration on Human Rights, the European Green Deal, the UN's Agenda 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals. Our employees contribute to these goals every day.
Sustainability is integral to the business model and part of our entire value chain, from the development and use of our products to the way we run and do business. Alongside the efforts of management and the Board, sustainability initiatives are implemented within the business units.
A sustainability mindset is to be embedded across all employees, present in all matters and in decision-making in the Group.
In its vision, Vitec has expressed this as: "Shaping a wiser and more sustainable future."
Below is a summary of sustainability targets. They are described in greater detail in the 2025 Annual Report.
Climate impact
Vitec takes a long-term, systematic approach to reduce its climate impact throughout the value chain. Our climate efforts are based on the goal of continuously reducing emissions in relation to business growth.
Vitec's total climate impact in 2025 amounts to 1,646 tonnes CO₂e (1,449). Vitec is a decentralized organization that grows through acquisitions. To enable monitoring of climate impact over time, emissions are measured in relation to sales. Climate impact in relation to inflation-adjusted sales has decreased by 42% since 2019 but increased slightly compared with the previous year.
In 2025, Vitec celebrated its 40th anniversary, including inviting all employees to a conference in Stockholm. This resulted in a one-time effect of higher travel-related climate impact for the year. For a software production company like Vitec, the main climate impact comes from business travel, energy consumption from premises and data centers, and the purchase of IT equipment, consumables and food for the offices.
Outcome (tonnes of CO₂e/SEK million)
Climate impact adjusted for sales.

On February 10, 2025, Vitec entered into a new loan agreement regarding a revolving credit facility provided by Nordea and SEB amounting to SEK 3 billion. The facility has a three-year term with the option for a one plus one-year extension. The new revolving credit facility replaced the existing revolving credit facility and acquisition loan credit.
To further diversify Vitec's sources of financing and maturity profile, in 2025 Vitec established an MTN program with a framework amount of SEK 5 billion to enable financing via the bond market. In 2025, Vitec issued senior unsecured bonds of SEK 1 billion with a maturity of four years, and on February 11 this year, additional senior unsecured bonds of SEK 700 million with a maturity of four years were issued under the existing MTN program.
During the year, apart from the bond loan, SEK 679.1 million was drawn under the credit facility, while SEK 893.3 million was repaid. Amortization related to right-of-use assets totaled SEK 20.2 million during the year.
Cash flow from operating activities was SEK 783.7 million (757.5). Investments totaled SEK 116.1 million in capitalized work, SEK 0.5 million in other intangible assets and SEK 4.1 million in property, plant and equipment. Investments in right-of-use assets not affecting cash flow totaled SEK 67.5 million. As a result of acquisitions, SEK 1,072.8 million was invested in product rights, brands, customer agreements and goodwill.
The fourth and final payment of the dividend for financial year 2024 was made on March 30, 2026, when SEK 35.6 million was paid.

The dividend will be divided up and paid on four payment dates: June 30, September 30, December 30 and March 31, 2027.
There are three long-term share savings plans offered to all employees. Provided that the employee has made a personal investment in shares in the company (savings shares), the employee is allocated matching share rights. If the employee remains with the company for two additional years after the investment period, the employee will receive matching shares. The cost of the matching share rights during the first quarter amounted to SEK 9.3 million and is included in personnel expenses. SEK 9.7 million is booked directly to equity, giving a net effect of SEK 0.4 million. During the first quarter of 2026, 100,000 class B shares were repurchased from the market. These shares will be used as matching shares. The purchase amount of SEK 26.0 million has been recognized in equity. At March 31, the total number of repurchased shares amounted to 311,032.
Taxes
Current tax for the period amounted to SEK -32.5 million (-67.4). Deferred tax totaled SEK -1.1 million (36.6). Adjustment of tax relating to previous years amounts to SEK -0.6 million (0.0).

Growth by acquisition
Acquisitions during the period
Two acquisitions were completed during the quarter: Autonet B.V. and Infometric AB. From the acquisition date through March 31, the acquired companies have contributed SEK 32.8 million in sales and SEK 8.6 million in EBITA. If consolidation had occurred at the beginning of the year, the companies would have provided the Group with an additional SEK 17.7 million in sales and SEK 1.5 million in EBITA. The acquisition-related expenses attributable to the acquisitions are recognized in operating profit and amount to SEK 7.8 million.
Goodwill items are deemed to be attributable to anticipated profitability, and complementary expertise requirements, as well as expected synergies, in the form of the joint development of our products.
The acquisitions added SEK 42.0 million in product rights, SEK 19.7 million in brands, SEK 240.9 million in customer agreements and SEK 770.4 million in goodwill. Expensed portions of contingent considerations as well as the commitment to acquire shares amount in total to a discounted value of SEK 303.5 million and are subject to gross margin improvements and EBIT improvements over the next several years. Contingent considerations are valued at discounted value of maximum outcome.

Acquired assets and liabilities 2026
Two acquisitions were completed during the period: Autonet B.V. and Infometric AB.
Some items in the acquisition plans may be remeasured, due to our brief ownership of the companies. This applies to all assets and liabilities in the acquisition balances, but mainly brands, product rights, customer agreements and goodwill. For this reason, the acquisition plans remain preliminary until remeasurement has been carried out, no later than 12 months after the acquisition date.
