Q3 2026 earnings summary
20 Oct, 2026Executive summary
9M 2026 sales rose 6.9% to EUR 189.34 mln; gross profit fell 0.5% to EUR 134.99 mln and EBIT fell 0.7% to EUR 36.93 mln.
Software growth, leaner costs and stronger operating cash flow offset Autodesk-related pressure; rising new sales eased the drag in Q3, with a strong final quarter expected.
Financial highlights
9M EBITDA rose 3.3% to EUR 46.51 mln; net profit fell 3.7% to EUR 23.38 mln and EPS fell 2.2% to 142 cents.
Operating cash flow rose to EUR 27.72 mln from EUR 16.62 mln; cash flow per share increased to 168 cents from 99 cents.
Outlook and guidance
2026 targets are EPS of 211–226 cents, EBIT of EUR 54.5–58.5 mln and dividend of 220–240 cents; a strong Q4 could deliver the lower half of the ranges.
Through 2030, annual targets are gross profit growth averaging 8% (range 6%–10%) and EBIT, EPS and dividend growth averaging 15% (range 11%–19%).
EPS target is above 380 cents by 2030 versus 191 cents in 2025; the five-year goal is to double earnings, subject to market conditions and planning assumptions.
