Xplora Q2 25 – Record high quarterly revenue of NOK 463m and EBITDA of NOK 51m
Oslo, 15 August 2025 – Xplora Technologies AS ("Xplora") today published its results for Q2 25, delivering record high EBITDA of NOK 51m, following structural margin improvements across the Group. Xplora showed healthy growth in the Kids & Youth segment, and the entry into the Senior segment through the acquisition of Doro AB earlier in the year has added significant scale and enhances profitability. Xplora is expanding its market reach with the launch of new subscription services in both the Kids & Youth and Senior segments in the quarter.
Revenue in Q2 25 was NOK 463m, an increase of 143% from Q2 24. Recurring revenue from high-margin services increased by 25% year-on-year to NOK 82m, translating to an annual recurring revenue (ARR) of NOK 327m. The subscription base increased by 40% to 393k. While the subscription base currently reflects only the Kids & Youth segment, the group has begun introducing subscription services also in the Senior segment.
“Our performance this quarter reflects both strong execution and continued progress on our long-term strategy,” said Sten Kirkbak, CEO of Xplora. “The Kids & Youth segment remains reliable growth engines, and we have now launched new high-margin service models in both the Youth and Senior markets. With a broader product and service offering, a growing subscription base, and strong financial flexibility, we are in a great position to accelerate further on our road to one million subscriptions.”
Gross profit rose by 152% to NOK 231m, driven by favorable product mix, and improved margins on next-generation devices. EBITDA increased to NOK 51m in Q2 25, up from NOK 18m in Q2 24, supported by increased operational leverage and continued cost discipline. Xplora ended the quarter with NOK 530m in cash.
