Executive summary

  • H1 2026 delivered stable sales at €686.6 million, with EBITDA surging to €88.3 million (H1 2025: €9.1 million) due to operational improvements, US customs duty refunds, and reversal of inventory write-downs.

  • Net income reached €72.8 million, a turnaround from a €42.4 million loss in H1 2025; EPS at €2.10.

  • Order backlog hit a record €1.8 billion as of June 30, 2026, up from €1.2 billion a year earlier, reflecting strong demand, especially in Large Scale & Project Solutions.

  • Strategic transformation and restructuring programs delivered over €150 million in cost savings, with further €100 million targeted by 2027.

  • Record order intake in Q2, especially in Large Scale, and strong demand in Home & Business Solutions.

Financial highlights

  • Free cash flow increased to €71.8 million (H1 2025: €65.5 million); net cash position rose to €244.6 million, supported by working capital optimization and tariff refunds.

  • Equity ratio improved to 31.7% (Dec 2025: 28.0%), with shareholder equity up 21%.

  • Gross margin increased to 30.4% (H1 2025: 18.2%) due to lower cost of sales and positive one-time effects.

  • Investments dropped to €14.6 million (H1 2025: €80.1 million), reflecting lower capital expenditure after major facility commissioning in 2025.

Outlook and guidance

  • Full-year 2026 guidance raised: sales expected between €1,625–1,725 million; EBITDA between €180–230 million; EBIT €130–180 million.

  • Management anticipates a stronger H2, with Q4 planned as the strongest quarter, driven by robust order backlog, new product launches, and cost reductions.

  • Large Scale & Project Solutions to see higher sales but stable EBIT due to increased costs and lower R&D capitalization.

  • Home & Business Solutions to remain loss-making in 2026 but with significant improvement; break-even targeted for 2027 at €350–400 million sales.

  • Investments for 2026 projected at approximately €40 million, significantly below 2025.

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.
