"I am looking forward to joining SameSystem as CEO", says Carsten Fensholt. "Despite a period of too high costs, we have an EBITDA of -4.7m DKK for Q4 FY2021/22 and expect an EBITDA for the entire FY2022/23 of -5.0m DKK. Overall, we are very positive about the market, both medium and long term, as retail and foodservice digitalise and optimise resources more than ever. Our key focus will be on delivering strong operational performance, profitability, and positive cash flow."

Carsten will join SameSystem as CEO when a new chairman of the board has been found and elected to replace Carsten at an extraordinary general assembly to be announced at a later date. We expect the extraordinary general assembly to take place no later than the 1st of April.
