Complete event summary combining all related documents: earnings call transcript, report, and slide presentation.Q2 2026 earnings summary27 Aug, 2026
Executive summary
Achieved double-digit organic revenue growth in both Bridges & Culverts and Water & Ground Solutions in Q2 2026, driven by strong demand and recovery from a harsh Q1 winter that delayed projects into Q2.
Margins declined due to unfavorable product and project mix and high material costs, especially from elevated oil prices.
Order intake remained stable with a record-high order backlog, especially in Poland and Turkey, supporting a positive outlook.
Sale-and-leaseback initiative in Poland is progressing, expected to generate EUR 7 million positive cash flow in Q4 2026.
Financial highlights
Group organic sales growth reached 12.8% year-over-year in Q2 2026, with net sales at EUR 52.3 million (up from EUR 46.4 million in Q2 2025).
EBITA margin declined to 5.6% from 5.9% in Q2 2025, mainly due to mix effects.
Underlying EBITDA margin was 10.7% (down from 12.7% year-over-year).
Cash flow from operating activities improved to EUR -0.3 million from EUR -1.2 million year-over-year; cash and equivalents at EUR 19.5 million.
Net debt at quarter-end was EUR 100 million, down from EUR 114 million a year earlier.
Outlook and guidance
Strong order backlog and continued positive market trends, supported by increased infrastructure investments across Europe.
Raw material prices, especially plastics, normalized in late Q2, reducing cost pressures for the second half of 2026.
Delayed projects from Q1 are expected to be executed in H2 2026, further supporting growth.
Market activity is improving, though not yet at normal levels.
