Executive summary

  • Q4 2025 saw stabilization and a strong sequential rebound after Q3's operational challenges, with net sales of EUR 41.5 million, down 8.5% year-over-year but up 23.1% from Q3, and nearly flat in constant currency.

  • Achieved a net cash position for the first time since 2021, supported by a successful rights issue and improved working capital, with net debt/EBITDA at -0.2x.

  • Platform consolidation and migration efforts are largely complete, with the unified Cint Exchange platform launched and migration challenges mostly resolved by Q4.

  • Major non-cash impairment of EUR 193.2 million related to the Lucid acquisition drove a significant operating loss.

  • Innovation accelerated with new measurement products, including deterministic social measurement and Forced Exposure, and the launch of a new Data business unit.

  • Working capital improved, with accounts receivable reduced and net working capital at EUR 36.8 million at year-end.

Outlook and guidance

  • 2026 priorities include driving commercial momentum, scaling growth in measurement and data, and focusing on innovation and R&D.

  • Medium-term targets: annual organic sales growth above 10%, EBITA margin of 25%, and net debt/EBITDA below 2.5x.

  • No annual dividend planned in the short term; cash to be reinvested in growth, with no share buybacks.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
