Bokusgruppen - Sweden's market-leading book retailer
q1 2026
Stable quarter with stronger gross margins
Bokusgruppen’s Q1 report
Extract from the CEO Patrik Övreby:
"We can now look back on a stable quarter, with stronger
gross margins resulting in a 1.4% increase in EBITA despite slightly weaker sales. Akademibokhandeln’s excellent performance continued, with one fewer store in the network.
Our annual national book sale was a record breaker, and
customers’ willingness to recommend us, measured as our
Net Promoter Score (NPS), continued to increase. After the
end of the quarter, Bokus launched its new e-commerce
platform, allowing us to become more competitive”
