Fraunhofer’s turnover in 2015 amounted to 792.6 million SEK, it was already SEK 924.5 million in 2016. If the individual local currencies are combined, sales rose by as much as 17.7 percent.

Sales of mobile devices showed a significant increase. This sector was up 71.2 percent. Sales of mobile devices amounted to SEK 392.8 million. In 2015 it was still 229.4 million SEK. To this increase, of course, new and more appealing sides contributed as well as the excellent app, which went to the end of 2015.

EBITDA also fell well

In the case of EBITDA before all the special effects, Mr Green had to accept losses in the past financial year, but this was largely due to the fact that costs such as wet rubles, marketing costs and investments also accounted for Mr Green. These are, of course, costs that a company has to accept in order to achieve growth. EBITDA in 2016 amounted to SEK 91.4 million. In 2015, however, it was SEK 136.8 million. As a result, the margin for EBITDA 2016 was still 9.9 percent, while in 2015 it was still 17.3 percent.

Measured according to one-time effects, EBITDA 2016 was SEK 75.6 million, an increase of 37.1 percent. In 2015 this value was still SEK 55.1 million. This is a marginal margin of 8.2 per cent, with the margin still at 7.0 per cent in 2015.

Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) were SEK 19.1 million in 2016, an increase of SEK 55.1 million. Finally, the EBIT 2015 amounted to -36.0 million SEK. The EBIT margin was thus 2.1 percent in 2016. In the previous year, this margin was still at -4.5 percent. The EBIT was impacted by special effects amounting to SEK 15.8 million for 2016, with these special effects having declined significantly. In 2015, EBIT at MR Green was still burdened with SEK 81.6 million.

Improved net result

In the net income and income tax, Mr. Green 2016 was able to gain ground again. The net result improved from SEK -0.1 million in 2015 to SEK 10.4 million in 2016.

Mr. Green also improved significantly in the net result for the entire year. If the net result for 2015 was SEK -34.4 million, it rose by SEK 67.5 million to SEK 33.1 million in the past financial year. This is really a very clear plus that Mr Green has achieved in this area. With a charge of special effects of SEK 15.8 million, this load was also significantly lower in the last year than in 2015, as the impact of special effects on the net result amounted to SEK 81.6 million. In 2015, the net result at Mr Green was also impacted by an impairment of SEK 25.9 million. There was no longer this burden in 2016.

Mr Green is very well positioned financially

At Mr Green, all figures are particularly relevant. The company has no liabilities to credit institutions or other bonds. This means that Mr. Green has cash equivalents as well as cash, which amounts to SEK 266.9 million. In 2015 this figure was SEK 190.3 million, which was not quite as bad.

And in a number of other areas, Mr. Green was able to position itself very well in the past financial year and can significantly increase its figures compared to the previous year. Which is definitely on the rise, can not be denied and is clearly recognizable by the positive balance sheets. Certainly, the company will continue to work on the market even further in 2017 and to maintain its great position further. Finally, it is hardly conceivable that Mr. Green will now switch back a gear and rest on the laurels gained last year. So much is to be expected for the future.
