XXL reported weak Q1 results, albeit slightly better than expected, as it continues to underperform in a challenging market. On a positive note, the company continues to make progress on its strategic initiatives and has improved its financial position following the private placement. We have cut our 2024–2025e EBITDA by 21–13% on slightly revised revenue and margin assumptions.
We consider this a slightly positive report for XXL, including weak figures in line with pre-warned levels, but slightly above our forecasts and consensus, and with no change to the outlook. We expect c5–10% positive revisions to consensus 2024e EBITDA and believe a slight positive share price reaction is warranted.

The Q4 results were below expectations and the outlook for Q1 was soft. While management looks to be making good progress in its turnaround plan, the runway might prove too short, increasing the risk that additional funding is needed. We have downgraded to HOLD (BUY) and cut our target price to NOK0.8 (1.2), reflecting negative estimate revisions and increased funding risk.
We expect weak Q4 results, reflecting still-low demand for sporting goods and high campaign activity. However, we believe XXL is well placed for a market recovery, given its leading position and promising transformation plan. We reiterate our BUY and NOK1.2 target price.
We consider this a weak report, with figures below expectations. However, on the positive side XXL has hiked its ambitions for cost cuts by cNOK100m. We expect consensus 2023 EBITDA to come down by cNOK100m. We believe a negative share price reaction is warranted.
We expect weak Q3 results, reflecting lacklustre demand for sporting goods and high campaign activity. While the market outlook remains subdued, in our view, XXL should be in pole position for a recovery, given its leading market position, strategic actions to restore profitability and a strengthened balance sheet. We reinstate a recommendation with a BUY and a NOK1.3 target price.

As pre-warned, XXL reported weak Q2 results, reflecting a challenging market. Although the timing of a market recovery remains unclear, the revised covenant structure and underwritten share issue offer XXL time to execute on its new strategy. Reflecting our role in the announced rights issue, we have withdrawn our recommendation and target price.
XXL has released a major profit warning for Q2, guiding for EBITDA of negative NOK25m–75m (consensus: NOK128m). Despite the significant shortfall, XXL is still in compliance with its covenants due to a temporarily deferral of tax payments. It commented that it is having constructive dialogue with its lending banks. We expect a c30% cut to consensus 2023 EBITDA and a negative share-price reaction.
We expect XXL to report weak Q2 results, as elevated industry inventories and low demand for sporting goods leads to continued campaign pressure. Focus remains on covenants, which XXL is set to breach on our estimates. We reiterate our HOLD and NOK2.2 target price.
The Q1 results were mixed, with soft results broadly in line with expectations but a positive inventory trend, with normalised levels set to be reached in Q2. However, the market outlook remains challenging and XXL looks set to breach its covenants on our forecasts. We reiterate our HOLD, but have cut our target price to NOK2.2 (2.6) despite slight positive estimate revisions, reflecting higher refinancing risk.
We expect XXL to report weak Q1 results, hit by high campaign activity. Given elevated industry inventories and weak consumer demand, we consider 2023 a lost case from an earnings perspective, with a key focus on covenants. Although XXL appears to comply with covenants on our H1 estimates, a recovery in the sales trend will be needed for H2. We reinstate our HOLD and NOK2.6 target price.
