Q1 2026 IFRS financial results

Revenue in Q1 2026 increased by 2.9% to EUR 117.5 million from EUR 114.1 million in Q1 2025. The year‑over‑year growth reflects continued deployments of optical transport solutions, supported by ongoing network upgrades and sustained long‑term demand for higher‑capacity and more flexible fiber infrastructure.

Pro forma gross profit for Q1 2026 was EUR 37.8 million (32.2% of revenues), down from EUR 39.2 million (34.3% of revenues) recorded in Q1 2025. The decline in gross margin was driven by product mix effects and higher fixed costs in the period.

Pro forma EBIT improved to a loss of EUR 1.4 million (-1.2% of revenues) in Q1 2026, compared to a loss of EUR 4.8 million (-4.2% of revenues) in the prior year comparable quarter. The substantial year-over-year improvement was driven by higher revenues and continued focus on cost control and operational efficiencies, partially offset by the lower gross margin.

The company will publish the Q1 2026 statement on May 12, 2026, and the financial results for Q2 2026 on August 4, 2026. The 6M Report 2026 will be published on August 11, 2026.
