Outlook and guidance
FY2026 normalised EBIT guidance remains €40m–€70m; free cash flow is now expected around €0, versus prior guidance of €0 to -€30m.
Assumptions include revenue growth of 5%–7%, CapEx of ~€125m, lease payments of ~€100m and organic cost increases of ~€140m; price increases are expected to more than offset costs.
