Complete event summary combining all related documents: earnings call transcript, report, and slide presentation.Executive summary
Q3 2025 net sales were EUR 40.7 million, down 3.4% year-over-year, with sales flat at comparable currencies and a 10.5% EBITDA margin, impacted by market softness and smaller average deal sizes.
Profitability was affected by EUR 1.7 million in one-off IAR Systems acquisition costs, with EBITA at EUR 4.3 million, down 58.5% year-over-year.
Customer churn remained stable, but clients reduced license counts and opted for shorter-term deals, reflecting cost-saving measures and developer layoffs.
The IAR Systems acquisition was completed, expanding the product portfolio and offering cross-sell opportunities, especially in safety-critical and microcontroller segments.
Full-year guidance was revised downward due to weaker Q3 and a softer sales pipeline.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.
One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
This is genuinely one of the cleanest and fastest finance apps out there to track the market.
