Executive summary

  • H1 FY2026 revenue reached €555.3 million, up 5.5% like-for-like, with adjusted EBITDA at €227.2 million and a record 40.9% margin, driven by Public Cloud and strategic initiatives including a Defence vertical and AI Lab following the Dragon LLM acquisition.

  • Front-loaded CapEx of €238.5 million (43% of revenue) secured supply and mitigated component cost inflation amid global supply chain disruptions.

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.
