Today, we released our interim report for the first quarter of 2024/25. We are pleased to report a first quarter that aligns with our plans and expectations. While we experienced a 12% decline in revenue, this was primarily due to a strong comparable first quarter last year, driven by heightened demand ahead of a planned price increase. We achieved a record-high gross margin of 55.2%, reflecting our ongoing efforts to strengthen the company’s financial foundation and positioning us well for future growth. Our CEO Kristian Tear commented on the results and the road ahead for Bang & Olufsen: “…We continued to execute our strategic priorities with a particular focus on increasing global brand awareness, optimizing the retail network and creating world-class products. We recently launched our new flagship headphones Beoplay H100 and are delighted to see that they are off to a good start. Simultaneously, we have worked to prepare the acceleration of our strategy execution in order to make the value-creating investments to realise our mid-term growth plan. We were therefore pleased to get strong support for our plan at our Annual General Meeting in August, enabling us to increase the share capital and complete a directed share issue, expectedly before the end of November.”   Read more below: https://lnkd.in/g_wvTbuB

The drive to perform is on. Again.     The next roar in the B&O for Ferrari partnership? Three new stunning masterworks. Introducing Beolab 50 Ferrari Edition, Beovision Theatre Ferrari Edition and Beosound Theatre Ferrari Edition. Crafted from aluminium – the hallmark material of both our brands.      We’ve always pushed the envelope on performance, just like Ferrari. This time, we’ve shaped and milled the light-but-sturdy aluminium in matchless ways – but it's not just about aesthetics. It’s about striving for the most powerful experience possible. The pursuit of performance. The thrill. Ready? Read more: https://lnkd.in/dTW8WG_S

This week we participated in #ScienceDay - an initiative that aims sheds light on careers within science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM,) building on our commitment to support future innovators through knowledge sharing. We had the pleasure of welcoming more than 40 students for an introduction to STEM related career paths at Bang & Olufsen, at our factory in Struer, where we explored themes close to our hearts - from product circularity to craftsmanship, acoustics and more. It was a rewarding experience for all and we look back on a day replete with valuable insights from our enthusiastic guests.

Timelessness is about consistency. But occasionally, swirls of change can elevate an iconic form. Beosound Balance Marbled Black does just that. An opulent marble base, with contrasting black-and-white colours, lends any space a dreamy feel. And this noble material is always unique in its cut – so no two examples will ever be the same. It's a look completely unmatched, until you press play. Learn more at https://lnkd.in/d7ySnt6X
