The company reported a significant improvement in gross margin, increasing from 43.3% to 46% of net sales.

The company successfully launched new products, such as the Chill Out brand in Finland and Sweden, and the Koskenkorva Long Drink, which gained coverage in over 1,000 retail stores.
Anora Group PLC's industrial segment reported a significant increase in comparable EBITDA, driven by efficiency improvements in the supply chain.

Negative

Anora Group PLC experienced a 3.8% decline in net sales due to lower volumes in spirits and industrial segments, partly attributed to the timing of Easter.
The wine segment's comparable EBITDA declined due to increased upfront investments in marketing and changes in channel and product mix.
All Nordic markets for spirits declined in Q1, which was only partially compensated by growth in international markets.
The industrial segment faced lower volumes and side product sales, impacting overall performance.
