It enables users to compare products from thousands of retailers across multiple countries. On April 6, 2021, PriceRunner announced a SEK 370 million ($42.8 million) capital raise from Swedish investor Creades, which took a 12% stake in the company. For the fiscal year 2020, the company reported sales of SEK 398 million ($46.1 million) with a 35% operating margin. The investment positioned Creades as a significant shareholder alongside others like Karl-Johan Persson (31% via Philian Invest) and former CEO Nicklas Storåkers (23%). PriceRunner focused on enhancing its comparison shopping service and supporting retail partners' businesses during this period. Later in 2021, for the 12 months ending September 30, 2021, PriceRunner achieved revenues of SEK 460 million ($53.7 million) with a 52% adjusted EBITDA margin, employing over 200 staff across Sweden, Denmark, and Norway. This traction preceded its acquisition by Klarna, announced November 2, 2021, and completed April 4, 2022, with varying reported enterprise values from SEK 1.1 billion (Creades stake sale basis) to over SEK 9 billion.
