BTS Group AB (publ) announces earnings update for the second quarter and lowered outlook for 2025
STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN - BTS Group AB (publ), a leading global consultancy specializing in strategy execution, change, and people development, today announces an earnings update for the second quarter 2025. The company is expected to report net sales of approximately SEK 720 (730) and an EBITA of SEK 85 (110) in the second quarter. As a consequence, the outlook for 2025 has changed from a better EBITA than last year to the company anticipating a worse EBITA than last year.
The deviation in profit stems entirely from BTS North America, which is experiencing negative revenue growth, mainly due to inefficient go-to-market and sales operations. Additionally, the current unfavorable USD exchange rate as well as severance and other one-time costs in the quarter have contributed to the reduced results.
A program to get back to growth of revenue and profit in North America has been implemented, with new leadership of BTS North America, a new strategy and organization for marketing and sales.
BTS Other Markets, BTS Europe, and the previously acquired executive coaching business of Boda in North America are continuing to show healthy growth of revenues and EBITA.

Asian stocks climb, dollar droops on Fed easing bets
By Kevin Buckland TOKYO (Reuters) -Asian equities rose on Thursday, with Japanese shares hitting a record high, as tech-led gains on Wall Street, upbeat earnings and growing expectations for U.S. rate cuts boosted sentiment. The prospect of a meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin over the war in Ukraine also underpinned sentiment, benefitting the euro, while weighing on oil prices as traders gauged the outlook for sanctions on Moscow. Sterling held its ground at a one-week high going into the Bank of England's policy announcement later in the day, with a quarter-point cut widely expected, and the focus falling on a possible three-way split within the board. At the same time, markets largely shook off Trump's latest tariff threats, including an additional 25% tariff on India over purchases of Russian oil and a threatened 100% duty on chips. Japan's broad Topix index rose 0.9% to reach an all-time high, with the more tech-focused Nikkei also gaining by about the same margin. Taiwan's stock benchmark surged 2.3% to a more than one-year peak. South Korea's KOSPI added 0.6%. Hong Kong's Hang Seng rose 0.4%, and mainland Chinese blue chips advanced 0.3%. Australian shares edged slightly lower after hitting a record high on Wednesday. U.S. stock futures were buoyant, with those for the S&P 500 up 0.3% and those for the Nasdaq also rising 0.3%. On Wednesday, the S&P 500 climbed 0.7% and the Nasdaq Composite jumped 1.2%. "Wall Street seems to have gotten its mojo back," analyst Kyle Rodda wrote in a note. "However, there are persistent risks to the downside. Downside surprises in official data are increasing," he said. "Valuations are also stretched, with forward price to earnings hovering around the highest in four years. And trade uncertainty persists." The U.S. dollar remained lower against major peers on Thursday, with expectations of easier policy from the Federal Reserve stoked both by some disappointing macroeconomic indicators - not least Friday's payrolls report - and Trump's move to install new picks on the Fed board that are likely to share the U.S. President's dovish views on monetary policy. Focus is centring on Trump's nomination to fill a coming vacancy on the Fed's Board of Governors and candidates for the next chair of the central bank, with current Chair Jerome Powell's tenure due to end in May. The dollar index, which gauges the currency against the euro, sterling and four other counterparts, gained slightly to 98.245, after dropping 0.6% on Wednesday. The euro was little changed at $1.1657, following the previous session's 0.7% jump. Sterling was steady at $1.3356. The BoE looks poised to cut interest rates for the fifth time in 12 months later on Thursday, but nagging worries about inflation are likely to split its policymakers and cloud the outlook for its next moves. Two Monetary Policy Committee members may push for a half-point rate cut, and two may lobby for no change. The dollar added 0.1% to 147.53 yen. Gold gained 0.4% to around $3,382 per ounce, buoyed by the weaker dollar. Crude oil clawed back some losses from Wednesday, when both Brent and West Texas Intermediate slid about 1%. Brent crude futures were last up 20 cents, or 0.3%, at $67.09 a barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude gained 22 cents, or 0.3%, to $64.57 a barrel. Sign in to access your portfolio

Morgan Stanley Upgrades PT on NVIDIA from $170 to $200, Keeps Overweight Rating
NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) is one of the top stocks that Grok recommended. On July 30, Morgan Stanley upgraded the price target on NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) from $170 to $200, keeping its Overweight rating on the stock. Joseph Moore from Morgan Stanley reiterated his rating on NVDA with a price increase as the analyst sees further gains in the coming months, driven by the AI strength, as the supply and demand continue to soar. Moore mentioned that the planned Blackwell ramp for both processors and connectivity in the second half of 2025 will fuel the next phase of growth for Nvidia. Moore's bullish call arrives ahead of Nvidia's earnings release scheduled on August 27. Wall Street expects NVDA to post earnings per share of $1 and quarterly revenue of around $45.68 billion. The analyst believes that the supply bottlenecks will continue to set the pace for growth and accelerate the momentum for earnings revisions.
