Gofore Plc’s Business Review for October 2026: Net sales 21.6 million euros
Gofore's net sales were 21.6 (21.5) million euros in October 2026. The 12-month pro forma net sales were 223.1 million euros. At the end of October, the Group employed a total of 1,768 (1,797) people.
CEO Mikael Nylund:
“October net sales grew to 21.6 (21.5) million euros. In October, there was one less working day in Finland than in the comparison period, which weakened net sales growth. Organic growth was -1.9 percent, working day adjusted +2.0 percent. The utilisation rate, which rose to the best level of the year, supported the development of net sales.
The net sales and employee figures for September and October also reflect the impact of the Product Design & Technical Documentation business sold at the beginning of September, which has been discussed in more detail in our Interim Report on 27 October 2026.
The best news in October was that we ranked first in all three areas of the KEHA Centre’s major development service framework agreement tender, and we were also selected for three of the four solution development and maintenance areas. We estimate the total value of the new agreements to be at least 43 million euros over the six-year contract period. The framework agreement wins are a significant step in continuing our more than ten-year collaboration with KEHA in advancing the digitalisation of Finnish employment services.
This entity was the second of the expiring contracts we mentioned in the Half-year Report 2026 and partly reduces the risk related to major customer relationships.
Our strategy cycle has traditionally been two years, and since the previous strategy update was carried out at the end of 2024, we are once again in the process of finalising our new growth strategy.”
Key Figures
The numbers are unaudited. Key figures from the Esentri AG acquisition are included in the Group figures as of the closing date, 2 January 2026. The reported last 12 months (LTM) net sales for September 2026 is 223.5 million euros, not 228.7 million euros as shown in the monthly figures table of the January–September 2026 Interim Report. The figure has been corrected in the table below.
