Eezy operates in staffing and recruitment. The company offers solutions in several sectors, mainly in construction and civil engineering, electrical engineering and the manufacturing industry. In addition, HR support is offered as well as support and training in the work areas. The largest operations are found in the Nordic and Baltic markets. The company was previously known as VMP Group and is headquartered in Helsinki.

Tässä on Petrin kommentit henkilöstöpalvelualan laskumenosta lokakuussa. *According to the staffing industry’s revenue survey, the revenue of the 20 largest companies in the sector was approximately EUR 120 million in October, which represents an 8% decrease year-on-year. The development of the overall market is essentially linked to temporary staffing

It would be significant for Eezy if a September-like boost continued.

Yes, something has been pumped, and because of that, Q4 might not have as good cash flow as in previous years, but if you scroll through 5 years of Q4 reports, Q4 has always been by far the strongest quarter in terms of cash flow. So, relatively, it might not be as strong as in recent years, but I would be surprised if net debt isn’t also pushed down in the last quarter. And the strong operating profit margin already in Q3 doesn’t hurt in this regard for Q4.  While pondering this, I have now concluded that when negotiating during Q1, the assumption was that Q1 and Q2 would already perform better in terms of operating profit/revenue, and the trend would improve towards the end of the year. Then the market didn’t ease at all, and the expected improvements for 2026 now look challenging from the current level. Could they have expected a return to closer to the €15 million operating profit level in 2026? In any case, I’ve arrived at pretty much the same conclusion as you.

Free cash flow this year – if calculated as Operating cash flow - investments - lease liability repayments – has indeed been only 0.9 M€. However, that is clearly more than the -1.2 M€ of the corresponding periods in 2023 / 2024. 4Q2023 was 2.3 M€, and 4Q2024 was as much as 4.7 M€. I interpreted that some cash flow pumping has been practiced during 2025, so I would be surprised if a setback like last year’s occurred. This is because quite many companies perform their pumping at the end of the year, perhaps Eezy also did it earlier. On the other hand, “one-offs” have already accumulated this year to the extent of 2024, it remains to be seen whether operating cash flow needs to be burdened with them in 4Q2025… Well, perhaps, let’s see, the decline in turnover has continued and the first quarter is the year’s low point. My own interpretation, as can be inferred from the interview, is that the covenants are tightening more than the situation is improving. Probably in the 1Q2025 covenant negotiations, the focus has been more on 2025 covenants than 2026, as well as the perception that the business environment would improve in 2H2025 or similar. This has been hoped for and expected for the entire national economy for a long time… EDIT: an addition to that, both Saksi and Westermark mention that historically, the staffing industry was among the first to rise when an upturn begins.  k€  M€

@Petri_Gostowski’s latest report:                   Inderes              Eezy Q3'25: Markkinan myötätuulta odotellessa - Inderes    Keskeinen kysymysmerkki Eezyn lähivuosien tulosparannuksen suhteen on henkilöstövuokrausmarkkinan kehitys                             “Eezy generated a free cash flow of 0.9 MEUR in Q1-Q3’25, which reflects the criticality of strengthening cash flow to bring down indebtedness.” This cash flow was the best for the first 3 quarters since 2022 (even then, only lower investments made it better), and Eezy’s cash flow is generally weighted towards the last quarter. With the current cost structure, it seems that the cash flow will be strong this year as well, although the cash flow optimization measures have yielded some good results in these earlier quarters, which might take a little away from the last one. Since efficiency measures with their one-off costs have been heavily implemented quarter after quarter, and now if these are not done in Q4, then the cash flow should be stronger in this respect as well, without those costs. Next year, the investment level can be expected to drop just a little, based on what I heard from the CEO in the webcast. It seems that Eezy would have good prospects for future quarters, but those challenges regarding financing covenants

I find it somewhat strange that financing negotiations were just held in the spring, and since then, the operating margin/cash flow development has been quite good. So how is it that we’re in a situation where next year will be tight with covenants again? What level of performance was expected, then?

Well, indeed, it says there that adjusted EBITDA is used. I calculated it using the EBITDA presented in the interim report, and indeed the result of the net debt/EBITDA calculation was the same as what is stated in the interim report. When EBITDA is a rolling 12 months and net debt includes IFRS at the end of the reporting period. We probably don’t know what the adjusted EBITDA is, or what the covenant levels are now and in the future… perhaps the adjustment could then be those specifically mentioned, such as for Q3 2025:    The result included personnel costs related to the termination of employment relationships of EUR 0.4 (0.4) million and other non-recurring costs of EUR 0.6 (0.6) million.
