Analyst

Juha Kinnunen

Talenom is an accounting firm that offers a wide range of services within accounting, invoice management and payroll. In addition to the main business, financial analysis and the possibility of real-time control via the company's web services are offered. The largest proportion of customers are found among small and medium-sized corporate customers in the Nordic market. The company was founded in 1972 and has its headquarters in Oulu.

It’s easy to agree with this.. To go to the worst country one could possibly choose.

I also wondered about the justifications - it’s like a chronic drunk explaining their (temporary) hangover by a lack of alcohol. Factually correct, but alcohol is still the problem, not the solution. Well, it’s positive that they didn’t acquire just any foreign company just to buy revenue targets. Whether the reason was tight cash or a lack of suitable targets.

And in Sweden, the problem is the different competitive situation there and customers’ attitude towards foreign software companies. Indeed, if they had researched Fortnox’s market share and operations more thoroughly, and with a slightly humbler mindset, they would have skipped the conquest of Sweden.

Same here, shouldn’t have watched the interviews. Should have looked at the numbers and their development. What’s particularly frustrating is that bad numbers came in many quarterly reports, and I couldn’t draw the right conclusions from them. Somehow, I ended up thinking that the concept proven in Finland could be replicated at least moderately well. But the difference in performance between Finland and Sweden is absolutely shockingly large.

And probably fewer acquisitions have been made because the balance sheet is tight. Still, the second installment of the dividend had to be distributed. I currently have no confidence that smart decisions will continue to be made under the leadership of the main owners.

In principle, the result can still be in line with the old guidance, but due to distribution costs, the guidance had to be lowered.

“Talenom has completed fewer acquisitions than planned during 2025, which has reduced the generation of revenue and EBITDA.” Quite an interesting (partial) explanation for the profit warning. Acquisitions have been a complete mess anyway, considering that losses are being made abroad. They don’t generate that EBITDA. Who in their right mind would want more of them? The company’s net gearing is something like +160%, and the company includes acquisitions in its guidance. Shouldn’t they try to pay off old debts before leveraging the company to the hilt? The company’s indebtedness has almost doubled in 4-5 years. Messing around with debt is the root cause of the company’s poor performance. The profit warning is merely a consequence of poorly managed core business operations.

Talenom

After an acquisition-driven growth leap, the company has moved to a new size class and become a significant player in Sweden as well. Profitability has been hurting due to growth investments, but we expect the situation to improve in the coming years and earnings growth rate to return to over 20% annually.

<p>After an acquisition-driven growth leap, the company has moved to a new size class and become a significant player in Sweden as well. Profitability has been hurting due to growth investments, but we expect the situation to improve in the coming years and earnings growth rate to return to over 20% annually. The technological competitive advantage of the core business has strengthened with the scale growing and new growth drivers may emerge from new ventures in the next few years. The valuation has fallen to a reasonable level (2023e P/E 29x and EV/EBIT 24x), but in the short term the increase in interest rates may still weigh on the share. However, for a long-term investor, we consider the risk/return ratio of the share to be attractive now.</p>
