Delignit AG reports significant increase in revenue and earnings in the first half of 2026 and confirms its guidance

Blomberg, August 12, 2026. Delignit AG (ISIN DE000A0MZ4B0), a leading manufacturer of ecological, hardwood-based products and system solutions, performed well in the first half of 2026 amid a market environment that remained challenging and volatile, and will publish its half-year report on Thursday, August 13, 2026. Based on preliminary, unaudited figures, consolidated revenue rose by 12.0 % to € 37.8 million, compared with € 33.7 million in the same period of the previous year. EBITDA rose disproportionately by 23.1 % to € 2.6 million, compared with € 2.1 million in the prior-year period; the EBITDA margin improved to 6.8 %, up from 6.2 % in the prior-year period.
The key growth driver was the Technological Applications target market, which nearly doubled its revenue to € 7.8 million from € 4.0 million in the same period of the previous year and significantly increased its share of consolidated revenue. In addition to positive developments in the core business, market expansion through Delignit Technologies Italia S.r.l., with a focus on rail and marine, contributed significantly to this growth. Despite volatile market conditions, the Automotive segment remained stable overall and generated revenue of € 30.0 million, slightly above the prior-year level. The financing structure remained very solid: As of June 30, 2026, the equity ratio stood at 71.9 %, and net debt remained clearly positive at € 5.3 million (prior year: € 4.2 million).
The Executive Board stands by the guidance updated in July 2026 and continues to expect consolidated revenue of € 68 million for the 2026 fiscal year, with an EBITDA margin of 7 % to 8 %.
A digital earnings call will take place at 12:00 p.m. CET on August 13, 2026, coinciding with the publication of the 2026 half-year report. Registration is available via the Delignit AG financial calendar: register here.
