ViaCon Group (VIACON) investor relations material

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.
