LeadDesk operates in the IT sector. The company is a technical developer of software solutions that are further used for the analysis and processing of customers' sales and support functions. The largest presence is in the Nordic market, where customers consist of small and medium-sized corporate customers. The head office is located in Helsinki.

LeadDesk has taken clear steps to improve its profitability, even though this has had a short-term impact on revenue. The company has exited less profitable customer relationships and shifted its growth focus more strongly toward Continental Europe, where the cloud-based customer service software market is expanding. Despite the slower growth, profitability has strengthened, and we expect this trend to continue. Acquisitions, such as the purchase of the eDialog business, support the company’s strategy and have the potential to generate value with minimal cost. Valuation still appears attractive, although there are some uncertainties around growth. What are your thoughts on the company’s future outlook?

LeadDesk publicerar sin bokslutsrapport på torsdag, och förväntningarna är en måttlig omsättningstillväxt samt förbättrad lönsamhet. Utmaningar på den nordiska marknaden har bromsat tillväxten, men bolaget satsar nu mer på Centraleuropa. Lönsamheten stöds av kostnadskontroll och förvärvet av Zisson, som stärker kassaflödet. Tillväxten förväntas accelerera under 2025, och särskilt AI-driven automation kan påverka marknadsläget. Den kommande rapporten väntas ge mer insikt i framtidsutsikter och strategiska prioriteringar.

Lite funderingar.  Framtiden för contact center-lösningar är i förändring. Kundinteraktion moderniseras ständigt, och AI-lösningar öppnar upp nya möjligheter. Många aktörer uppdaterar gamla system istället för att skapa helt nya arbetssätt, vilket väcker frågan: finns det långsiktig efterfrågan på traditionella contact center-modeller? Stora AI- och teknikföretags omfattande lösningar kan tränga ut mindre aktörer om de inte lyckas utveckla verkligt innovativa och heltäckande tjänster. Branschen förändras snabbt, men på många sätt känns den fortfarande något gammaldags. Konkurrensen hårdnar, och mindre företag måste hitta sitt unika sätt att hålla sig relevanta i utvecklingen.

Mikael Maijala interviewed analyst Antti Luiro about LeadDesk. As the Nordic market has matured, LeadDesk has sought growth in Continental Europe and been active in acquisitions. The company’s transformation into a profit and cash flow machine strengthens with the latest Zisson acquisition.

Here is a very comprehensive, truly easy-to-read overview of a highly attractive company… LeadDesk.  (I own shares in this company! ) In recent years, LeadDesk’s growth has suffered from the maturing of the Nordic market and the economic downturn, as growth investments have geared more toward the growth markets of Continental Europe. The company has also managed to keep up with the AI transformation in its market. With the Zissonacquisition in December, the earnings potential will begin to surface and the earnings-based valuation (EV/EBITA 2025-26: 13-9x) starts to offer stronger share price drivers. We raise our target price to EUR 8.5 (was EUR 8.0) and recommendation to Buy (was Accumulate).

LeadDesk köper Zisson och stärker sin marknadsposition i Norden  LeadDesk har köpt det norska contact center-programvaruföretaget Zisson som en del av sin tillväxtstrategi på den europeiska CCaaS-marknaden.

LeadDesk announced the sale of its minority stake in Profinder to Ilkka Oyj for EUR 2.5 million, significantly exceeding its balance sheet valuation (EUR 0.9 million). The transaction strengthens LeadDesk’s net cash position and increases the share value by approximately EUR 0.4 per share. The price paid for Profinder, EV/Revenue 3x, is notably higher than LeadDesk’s own valuation. The deal does not affect the company’s positive outlook, and LeadDesk is now fully divested from the target group data business.
