FINANCIAL TARGETS
DIVIDEND POLICY
The Board of Directors has communicated its overall expectations for 2026, with a continued focus on profitable growth, operational efficiency and commercial performance. These efforts are aimed at ensuring stable financial development and creating long-term value for shareholders.
The year has started with lower volumes and weak order intake. Combined with the broader macroeconomic environment, the Company expects the trend of declining volumes to continue for some time, resulting in an estimated decrease in earnings per share (EPS) of 10–20 percent compared with 2025.
The Company will report regularly on progress in relation to these objectives.
Minimum 75% of net profit to be paid out to shareholders.
Why Ework Group?
Ework combines a leading market position with a scalable and capital-efficient business model. Together with long-standing customer relationships, a broad network of independent professionals and a growing demand for flexible talent solutions, this provides a strong foundation for profitable growth and long-term shareholder value.
✓ Scalable platform with operating leverage
Ework’s digital platform streamlines the entire chain from procurement to delivery. With AI-based services in daily production and a new customer portal, volumes can increase without the cost base growing at the same rate. This provides clear operating leverage on earnings when the market turns.
Gross margin: 4.1%
✓ Leading European talent partner
Ework operates in seven countries and has a network of over 240,000 consultants. The client base is diversified across both the private and public sectors. The size of the network provides matching advantages that strengthen delivery capacity and competitiveness, thereby creating the conditions for profitable growth.

Consultants: 240,000+
✓ Positioned for increased demand in AI and digitalisation
Demand for specialist expertise in AI, data integration, and digital transformation is growing rapidly. During 2025, Ework attracted over 20,000 new consultants to the network, a large proportion of whom were in these specific areas of expertise. This positions Ework at the heart of a structural growth trend that is expected to continue driving the need for flexible cutting-edge expertise.
New consultants in 2025: 20,000
✓ Capital-efficient model with high returns
Ework’s business model requires minimal tied-up capital. This allows a large proportion of profits to be returned to shareholders. The goal is to distribute at least 75 percent of net profit. At the same time, low debt creates room for value-creating investments and continued geographical expansion.
Dividend policy: ≥75% of net profit
✓ Flexible organisation built for scalability
Ework has a limited fixed cost base and a flexible delivery capacity. This allows the operations to be quickly adapted to changes in demand. In weaker markets, the downside is limited, and when volumes increase, the model provides significant operating leverage without requiring major new investments.
