This business model allows the Company to generate high and repeatable margins. In the financial year, the gross margin on sales was 85.0%, the EBITDA margin was 62.9%, and the net profit margin was 53.9%.

LiveChat also confirms its dividend policy, which provides for the allocation of the highest possible part of the profit to the shareholders.

This translates into dividends in the amount of PLN 4.4 per share (taking into account the advance payments for dividends) compared to PLN 3.69 per share a year ago.
