Dresden, November 12, 2025 – Bike24 Holding AG (BIKE24) has continued its strong growth path in the third quarter of 2025. The company recorded revenue growth of 31.7 % to EUR 82.8 million in the reporting quarter (Q3 2024: EUR 62.9 million). In the first nine months, revenue rose by 25.5 % to EUR 220.9 million (9M 2024: EUR 176.0 million). Significant growth was achieved in all European markets, driven by the successful localisation strategy and a strong core market in Germany, Switzerland and Austria (GSA).

**Localisation strategy with above-average success**
The consistent implementation of the localisation strategy is contributing significantly to our growth: localised markets recorded an increase of 31.7 % in the third quarter, with Poland and Finland standing out in particular with 62.9 %. The established core market of Germany, Switzerland and Austria also grew significantly in double digits, at 35.6 %. Thanks to an outstanding product range, attractive prices and excellent service, BIKE24 was able to further expand its position as the first address for cycling enthusiasts in Europe.

**Profitability rises significantly – adjusted EBITDA margin at 6.4%**
Adjusted EBITDA improved by 111.5 % to EUR 5.3 million in the third quarter (Q3 2024: EUR 2.5 million). The adjusted EBITDA margin rose to 6.4 % after 4.0 % in the same quarter of the previous year. In the first nine months, adjusted EBITDA reached EUR 11.0 million (9M 2024: EUR 3.7 million) with a margin of 5.0 % (9M 2024: 2.1 %). This positive development is attributable to strong revenue growth and the disproportionately low development of fixed costs.

**Operational efficiency and working capital management**
In addition to the optimised personnel structure, ongoing cost discipline and improved operational processes led to below-average cost increases in the third quarter. At the same time, BIKE24 was able to further increase product availability through optimised ordering strategies, while still improving the cost of goods sold ratio to 26 % in Q3 (Q3 2024: 30 %). Free cash flow rose by 50.1 % to EUR 8.1 million in the third quarter (Q3 2024: EUR 5.4 million).

**Customer growth and increasing order frequency**
The number of active customers grew by 19.8 % to 1,087,430 in the last twelve months. The number of orders in the third quarter rose by 33.2 % to 584,272 (Q3 2024: 438,559).

** Voices from within the company**
Andrés Martin-Birner, founder and CEO of BIKE24, comments:
‘The third quarter impressively confirms our successful growth course. With sales growth of over 30 %, we are performing significantly better than the market. We are particularly proud of the success of our localisation strategy – Poland and Finland, with growth of almost 63 %, demonstrate the enormous potential of our business model.’

Sylvio Eichhorst, CFO of BIKE24, adds:
‘The figures speak for themselves: an adjusted EBITDA margin of 6.4 % in the third quarter with a 50 % increase in free cash flow underscores our operational strength. We have proven that our efficiency measures are effective and that we can grow strongly at the same time.’

**Forecast for full year 2025 raised**
In light of the very positive business development in the third quarter, BIKE24 adjusted its forecast for the full year 2025 on 21 October 2025. The company now expects revenue in the range of EUR 278 million to EUR 288 million (previously EUR 248 million to EUR 261 million) and adjusted EBITDA of EUR 12.5 million to EUR 13.5 million (previously EUR 7.0 million to EUR 12.1 million).

Today at 10 am CEST, the BIKE24 Q3 2025 earnings call will take place. The corresponding presentation will be available on the IR website. Please register via the following link:

If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialise, force majeure events such as pandemics occur or underlying expectations, including future events, do not occur or occur later or assumptions are not fulfilled, the actual results, performance or achievements of BIKE24 may differ materially (either negatively or positively) from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements.
