Aarhus, Denmark – June 26, 2025 – Stibo DX, a global leader in digital transformation solutions for the media industry, today announced its annual results for the financial year 2024/25, alongside a bold new investment initiative that positions the company for long-term growth and innovation.
Despite a challenging and rapidly evolving media landscape, Stibo DX delivered resilient results during a strategic investment year. Total revenue reached DKK 222 million, representing a 5% year-over-year decline driven by the company’s continued transition from traditional perpetual licensing to a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model. However, SaaS revenue increased by 16%, and recurring revenue rose 5%, underscoring the strength and stickiness of the company’s evolving business model. Order intake reached an all-time high of DKK 107 million, contributing to a CAGR since 2023 of 29%.
Stibo DX reported an expected EBITDA loss of DKK 35.2 million, aligned with its proactive strategy to invest heavily in transformation. Key expenditures included the establishment of a new nearshore development center in Spain, expanded customer success and service delivery teams, and an innovation budget exceeding 23% of revenue.
“In a year marked by accelerating industry transformation, we remain focused on building the future of media,” said Lars Bjørn Falkenberg, CEO of Stibo DX. “Our platform and organization are now strategically positioned to support the convergence of newsrooms, the rise of multimedia hybrid publishing, and the demand for scalable, AI-powered storytelling.”
