Executive summary

• Achieved all 2025 financial targets at budgeted FX rates, marking the fourth consecutive year of guidance achievement, with strong broadband demand early in the year but a Q4 slowdown due to tough comparables and supply constraints.

• Significant EBITDA improvement driven by cost optimization, synergies from the Home Networks integration, and transformation program nearing completion.

• Video equipment demand remained soft globally, reflecting ongoing secular market trends, with some exceptions in India and Western Europe.

• Sustainability initiatives advanced, including ISO 37001 anti-bribery certification, Gold EcoVadis certification, and a raised ambition to reach net zero by 2040.

• Patent-related dispute settlements and IFRS 16 lease accounting impacted non-recurring items and adjusted EBITDA.

Financial highlights

• FY 2025 revenues were €1,736 million, down 7.0% YoY at current rates and 3.1% at constant rates, mainly due to USD weakness and Video segment decline.

• Adjusted EBITDA rose 33.4% YoY to €145 million (8.3% margin), up from €109 million (5.8% margin) in 2024.

• Free cash flow from continuing operations turned positive at €62 million, an €87 million YoY improvement from -€25 million in 2024.

• Cash and cash equivalents at year-end were €13 million, with €22 million available on credit facilities and total liquidity of €35 million.

• Net nominal debt at year-end was €513 million (IFRS net debt: €508 million), up from €478 million (IFRS: €468 million) in 2024.

Outlook and guidance

• All FY 2025 guidance was achieved; for 2026, targeting positive free cash flow, but no EBITDA guidance due to memory market and geopolitical uncertainties.

• Profitability expected to improve quarter by quarter in a normal scenario, but material cost volatility and refinancing negotiations add uncertainty.
