Complete event summary combining all related documents: earnings call transcript, report, and slide presentation.Q1 25/26 earnings summary4 Sep, 2025
Executive summary
Revenues declined 7.8% year-over-year to €266.4 million in Q1 2025/26, reflecting broad-based weakness and economic uncertainty across most regions.
Adjusted EBIT dropped to €6.6 million (2.5% margin), with net profit at minus €4.0 million and EPS at minus €0.09.
Strategic closure of the unprofitable US production site in Highland, NY, will incur restructuring costs, with negative special effects impacting results.
A global efficiency and cost-saving programme is underway, targeting €30–40 million in annual savings by FY28/29, with 70–80% from personnel savings.
Strategic focus remains on operational efficiency, cost reduction, and leveraging opportunities in renovation and nonresidential construction.
Financial highlights
Group revenues fell 7.8% year-over-year, mainly due to declines in the UK, Asia Pacific, and Northern and Western Europe.
Adjusted EBIT decreased by 67.5% to €6.6 million; EBIT margin at 2.5% from 7.0% year-over-year.
Net profit for the period was minus €4.0 million, down from €12.8 million in Q1 2024/25.
Free cash flow was minus €10.6 million; net debt increased to €134.4 million from €118.5 million.
Adjusted gross profit margin declined to 36.7% from 38.5% year-over-year.
Outlook and guidance
Management expects a single-digit percentage revenue decline for FY 2025/26 compared to the previous year.
Adjusted EBIT margin is forecasted between 1% and 4% for the full year.
Planned CapEx for the year remains at €50 million.
Significant cost savings from the efficiency programme are expected to reach €30–40 million annually by 2028/29, with 80% realized by 2027/28.
Early signs of recovery in European nonresidential construction, especially in renovation, but positive momentum will reach the business with a delay.

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.
