Today, Vend Marketplaces ASA ("Vend") released its Q1 2026 results. Executing on our priorities – with strong profitability growth

Vend launches a new business unit to accelerate the development of AI-native marketplace experiences. This initiative supports its strategy to strengthen user journeys and unlock new sources of growth. The independent unit will work across Vend’s platforms, including FINN and Blocket. “AI is changing how users discover and transact, and this initiative allows us to explore and innovate at the frontier of the industry,” said Christian Printzell Halvorsen, CEO of Vend.

In accordance with the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act, an overview of nominee-registered shares is made available to the public, free of charge, ahead of the Annual General Meeting.

Personalisation is about building flexible, scalable systems that enable experimentation and inclusivity.

The future of AI won’t be defined by speed alone, but by who shapes it, how intentionally we build it, and the real-world impact it creates.

This year’s Sustainable Brand Index ranks Vend’s marketplaces, FINN in Norway and Tori in Finland, as the most sustainable brands in the e-commerce category in their respective markets.
