H1 2026 results: improvement in margins and continued execution of the disposal strategy

September 22, 2026 at 18h

 

 

In the first half of 2026, Prodways Group continued to implement its strategy, focused on divesting the Systems division's businesses and improving profitability. The Group reached a first major milestone during the period with the sale of the Software business for €35 million. At the same time, the current EBITDA margin improved significantly across the reported scope.

At the date on which the interim financial statements were approved, the process to sell the Materials business, operated by the subsidiary Deltamed, had progressed sufficiently to meet the criteria for classification as a discontinued operation under IFRS 5. The financial statements published for the first half of 2026 therefore present the Materials and Software businesses as discontinued operations, including in the historical comparative data. The Systems division included in continuing operations now consists solely of the Printers business.

On this new scope, Prodways Group generated revenue of €15.9 million in the first half of 2026, up slightly by 1% compared with the restated first half of 2025. Current EBITDA amounted to €0.6 million, representing a margin of 3.6%, an improvement of nearly 7 points.

Revenue: stable activity in the first half of 2026

In the first half of 2026, Prodways Group generated revenue of €15.9 million, up slightly by 1% compared with the restated first half of 2025. This change reflects growth in the Systems division, which now consists solely of the Printers business, while revenue in the Products division remained stable.

Systems division – printers activity

The Printers business generated revenue of €1.7 million in the first half of 2026, up 19% compared with the first half of 2025. This growth was mainly driven by MovingLight printers for ceramic applications.

Following several years of development work with major aerospace companies, certain applications are gradually moving from qualification and development phases into serial production. This momentum has continued since the end of the period, with an order for around ten MovingLight printers signed with a US aerospace industrial player, for a total value of a few million euros. Deliveries will take place throughout 2027.

Products division

The Products division generated revenue of €14.2 million in the first half of 2026, stable compared with the first half of 2025.

The Digital Manufacturing business improved progressively over the period. In France, the increase in order intake observed over several quarters translated into revenue growth of nearly 10% in the second quarter. This momentum was partly offset by lower activity in Germany. In a weakened competitive environment, Prodways is beginning to benefit from market share gains as a result of its commercial efforts and financial discipline.

In Audiology, following a slight decline in the first quarter, revenue stabilized in the second quarter. Commercial initiatives helped broaden the customer base, although performance continued to be affected by internal execution issues. The consolidation of sites into more suitable premises should help resolve some of these difficulties.

 

A marked improvement in the current EBITDA margin

Prodways Group generated current EBITDA of €0.6 million in the first half of 2026, compared with -€0.5 million in the restated first half of 2025. The current EBITDA margin therefore reached 3.6%, an improvement of nearly 7 points. This increase reflects improved profitability in both divisions and lower corporate costs.

The Systems division significantly reduced its losses, with current EBITDA of -€0.1 million, compared with -€0.5 million in the restated first half of 2025. The current EBITDA margin improved by 24 points to -9%. This improvement was driven by higher volumes in the Printers business, resulting in much better absorption of fixed costs.

The Products division generated current EBITDA of €1.4 million, up 21% despite stable revenue. The current EBITDA margin reached 10%, compared with 8% in the first half of 2025, reflecting the impact of the measures implemented to improve the profitability of the division's businesses.

Lastly, corporate costs decreased by nearly €0.5 million to -€0.7 million, compared with -€1.2 million in the restated first half of 2025. This change made a significant contribution to the improvement in Group profitability.

 

Operating income of -€1.0 million

After depreciation, amortization and provisions, income from ordinary activities amounted to -€1.0 million in the first half of 2026, an improvement of nearly €1.0 million compared with the restated first half of 2025. The Products division returned to positive income from ordinary activities of €0.1 million, while the Systems division reduced its loss slightly to -€0.5 million.

As other items of operating income were not material, operating income also amounted to -€1.0 million, compared with -€2.0 million in the restated first half of 2025.

 

Net income of €15.1 million, driven by the sale of the Software business

The financial result represented an expense of €0.2 million, compared with €0.3 million in the restated first half of 2025. After tax, net income from continuing operations amounted to -€1.3 million.

Net income from discontinued operations amounted to €16.3 million, including a €17.4 million capital gain on the sale of the Software business, completed in May 2026. As a result, consolidated net income amounted to €15.1 million.

 

A strengthened financial position

Continuing operations generated cash flow from operations of €0.2 million in the first half of 2026, compared with -€0.6 million in the restated first half of 2025. Working capital requirements represented a cash outflow of €0.5 million, broadly stable year on year. As a result, net cash flow generated by operating activities was -€0.3 million.

Capital expenditure remained under control at €1.0 million over the period. In addition, the sale of the Software business generated net cash proceeds of €31.5 million, bringing cash from continuing operations to €34.4 million at June 30, 2026. Excluding IFRS 16 lease liabilities, Prodways Group therefore had net cash of €25.1 million at June 30, 2026, compared with net debt of €4.4 million at December 31, 2025.

 

€20 million returned to shareholders through the public share buyback offer

Following the sale of the Software business, Prodways Group launched a public share buyback offer for a total amount of €20 million, with the aim of returning a significant portion of the disposal proceeds to shareholders. The offer, which ran from July 7 to July 28, 2026 inclusive, provided for the repurchase of up to 18,181,818 shares at a price of €1.10 per share.

As the number of shares tendered exceeded the maximum number sought, Prodways Group repurchased 18,181,818 shares. These shares were subsequently cancelled as part of a capital reduction completed on August 6, 2026.

 

Prospects for the disposal of the Materials business

Prodways Group is continuing to implement its strategy to divest the Systems division's businesses. The Materials business now generates limited synergies with the Group's other activities, particularly following the refocusing of the Printers business on MovingLight printers for ceramic applications.

At the date on which the interim financial statements were approved, the process to sell the Materials business, operated by the subsidiary Deltamed, had progressed sufficiently to meet the criteria for classification as a discontinued operation under IFRS 5. The assets and liabilities of this business are therefore presented as held for sale in the financial statements at June 30, 2026.

The Group will keep the market informed of the next steps in the disposal process.

 

Outlook and objectives for 2026

Based on the scope of continuing operations presented in the financial statements, Prodways Group confirms its objective of maintaining stable or slightly higher revenue in 2026 and improving the current EBITDA margin. The first-half performance, marked by 1% revenue growth and an improvement of nearly 7 points in the current EBITDA margin, reinforces the Group's confidence in achieving these objectives.

Consolidated financial statements

Classification of Deltamed under IFRS 5

At the date on which the 2026 interim financial statements were approved, the process to sell Deltamed was considered sufficiently advanced to meet the criteria for classification under IFRS 5. DeltaMed is therefore presented as a discontinued operation, with the assets and liabilities being reclassified as "assets and liabilities held for sale". Net income, as well as the cash flows generated by this activity, are presented on separate lines of the income statement and the cash flow statement, with retrospective restatement of comparative data for the 2025 financial year.
