Columbus

Today, Columbus reported its Q2 2024 report. The company’s revenue growth of 9% YoY (8% growth adjusted for acquisitions and currency) was in line with expectations, driven by a strong performance in its Cloud ERP business lines. Despite an improved EBITDA margin of 7.0% in Q2 2024 (4.6% in Q2 2023), Columbus has streamlined its organization to reach its EBITDA margin goal in 2026. Columbus' 2024 expectations are maintained.

Today, Columbus reported its Q2 2024 report. The company&#x2019;s revenue growth of 9% YoY (8% growth adjusted for acquisitions and currency) was in line with expectations, driven by a strong performance in its Cloud ERP business lines. Despite an improved EBITDA margin of 7.0% in Q2 2024 (4.6% in Q2 2023), Columbus has streamlined its organization to reach its goal of an EBITDA margin of 15% by the end of 2026. 
Looking at the first half of 2024 (YTD), Columbus&#x2019; growth is primarily driven by positive momentum in its Cloud ERP business lines, Dynamics and M3, growing 17% and 13%, respectively. On the other hand, the third largest business area, Digital Commerce, declined by -10%. Geographically, the highest growth is in the UK (53% YoY including the newly acquired company Endless Gain) and Denmark (31% YoY), while the weakest markets have been the US (-4% YoY) and Sweden (-4% YoY). &#xa0;
In Q2 2024, EBITDA amounted to DKK 30m (DKK 12m in Q2 2023), corresponding to an EBITDA margin of 7.0% (4.6% in Q2 2023). In Q2 2024, one of the important consulting KPIs, efficiency, was 63% (66% in Q2 2023). Lower-than-expected efficiency in some parts of the business implies that Columbus has reduced its organization by approx. 60 FTEs with a focus on its Digital Commerce and Security business lines. This is expected to have full effect in Q4 2024.&#xa0;
Full-year 2024 expectations are maintained, implying that organic revenue growth is expected in the range of 8-10% and the EBITDA margin is expected to be in the range of 9-10%.&#xa0;Read the full Q2 2024 report here: <a href="https://ir.columbusglobal.com/news-releases/news-release-details/interim-report-q2-2024">https://ir.columbusglobal.com/news-releases/news-release-details/interim-report-q2-2024</a>
