Mark Jensen — CEO

Thank you so much, and welcome to Ambea's presentation of the second quarter 2026. I am Mark Jensen, CEO, and with me today is Benno Eliasson, CFO. We will start with a brief group overview and our growth drivers, and then Benno will take you through the financials and business areas before we wrap up with concluding remarks and the Q&A. Ambea is the leading care provider in the Nordics, with operations across Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Finland. We operate through strong local brands and business areas covering elderly care, social care, and staffing and competence solutions. To clarify the breadth and scale of the group, we have redesigned this opening slide to provide a better context. On the left side of the slide, we see the care segments our business areas serve and the respective segment share of the Ambea Group net sales. To the right, we see the actual rolling 12 net sales per business area, the corresponding share of group net sales, and rolling 12 EBITDA margins. In the last 12 months, we reached over SEK 16.9 billion in net sales and delivered an adjusted EBITDA margin of 10.0% on group level. We continue to grow through both organic expansion and acquisitions in a resilient and risk-balanced business model with continued strong growth potential.
