Background and rationale
During the recent period, Goodbye Kansas Group has taken important steps to strengthen its sales focus, optimize project execution, and realize value from historical technology investments. This reflects the Company’s strong performance, with the highest level of newly signed agreements in Q3 2025, amounting to approximately SEK 128 million.
To meet the increased demand from these new agreements, accelerate the ongoing transformation process, and further strengthen the Company’s competitiveness, the Board of Directors considers it strategically justified to bring in new owners, including industrially experienced investors with expertise relevant to the Company’s focus areas.
CEO Thomas Lindgren comments:
“I am pleased to announce that the issue, despite short notice, attracted great interest from both existing and new investors, which together with the credit facility provides the company with close to SEK 14 million. The share issue confirms the market's confidence in our strategy and investors see the value in being part of the transition and acceleration we have initiated. In Q3 2025, we achieved both the highest order intake in the company's history, SEK 128 million, and our order book has grown by over 150 percent to SEK 103 million. This gives us a solid foundation for continued growth in 2026 and the years to come.
We strengthen the balance sheet through this issue, but above all, we now have the opportunity to fully focus on the business and start productizing parts of our technology, which makes us even more confident that we will achieve a positive result and operating cash flow in 2026.
In addition to the fact that a number of our major shareholders have continued to invest in the issue, it is also a sign of strength that we have new investors from our industry, such as Johan Pilestedt. Johan is the founder and now also chairman of the board of Arrowhead Game Studios. Arrowhead is behind the fantastic game successes Helldivers & Helldivers 2, where Goodbye Kansas has been involved in delivering content.”
