Acenta Group: Strong start to 2025 - the company strengthens working capital to meet increased demand

During the first quarter of 2025, Acenta Group experienced greater demand than expected for the Company's products. With preliminary sales of approximately SEK 6.5 million and positive result, the company is ahead of schedule in terms of the communicated target of sales of approximately SEK 35 million for the full year 2025.

To meet the increased demand for the company's products and to be able to build up inventories, Acenta Group has therefore entered into a loan agreement of SEK 5 million. The loan runs over 9 months and has market-based terms.

"We are very pleased with the strong reception our products have received at the beginning of 2025. The increased demand we have experienced clearly shows that our offering meets a real need in the market. With preliminary sales of approximately SEK 6.5 million in the first quarter, we are well ahead of our growth plan for the year.

To ensure that we can meet the increased demand and continue our growth journey, we have chosen to strengthen our working capital base through a loan of SEK 5 million. This will enable us to build up inventory and meet market needs without losing momentum in development. We are very positive about the rest of the year and are focused on developing the business in line with demand." says Håkan Tollefsen, CEO of Acenta Group.
