Wienerberger strengthens its position with the acquisition of Italcer
Wienerberger AG recorded strong growth in 2025, doubling its profit after tax to €168 million. Earnings per share reached €1.52, supported by sales of €4.6 billion. Free cash flow, at €474 million, is one of the highest in the company's history. The acquisition of Italcer, a producer of ceramic solutions, aims to consolidate its position in the European renovation market. Italcer, with sales of €350 million, will be a cornerstone of Wienerberger's diversification strategy.
For 2026, the company anticipates a slight increase in EBITDA to €760 million, despite an uncertain economic environment. The group continues to improve its strategic flexibility and reduce its net debt. The acquisition of Italcer, a decarbonization specialist, will support Wienerberger's environmental initiatives. Ultimately, this transaction should strengthen its value chain in the building materials sector.
