The company is now also revising its goals and profitability will be prioritized over growth. XMReality's financial goal to start generating positive cash flow by the end of 2024 at the latest therefore remains. However, the company sees that the previously communicated goal of reaching an ARR of SEK 75,000 thousand with an associated EBITDA of 15 percent in 2025 needs to be revised. With the prevailing macroeconomic uncertainty, the company has chosen to prioritize the goal of reaching a positive cash flow in 2024 and an EBITDA of 15 percent in 2025. In order to reach the goal of positive cash flow, the company will significantly reduce cost, which most likely will affect the ARR-growth and shift the timing to reach SEK 75,000 thousand into 2026.
