CEO Carlesund Promises a Busy Pipeline

Martin Carlesund, Evolution’s chief executive officer, expressed his excitement about the good results in his official statement. He praised the company’s outstanding EBITDA margin, underlining that it corresponds to the company’s earlier projections.

However, Carlesund noted that he feels that the company can do more to leverage its execution power to the fullest.

Carlesund praised Evolution’s RNG operations as a major source of revenue for the company, announcing that the company has a busy RNG roadmap for H2. He also praised the launch of the Funky Time game show, saying that everything went smoothly and as planned.

Carlesund teased that 2023’s roadmap is Evolution’s strongest ever. Still, the company plans to have an even more exciting roadmap in 2024. 

While Evolution will have to deal with a tougher macroeconomic climate, Carlesund said that the company is bullish on continuing its international growth in key markets such as the US, LATAM, Europe and Asia. 

We will continue to invest for growth, to try new solutions – sometimes fail – but always strive to be better, every single day. Together with the soon 18,000 people at Evolution, I look forward to the second half of 2023 with great enthusiasm.
