FirstFarms adjusts downwards the expectations for the year based on drought in Slovakia and decrease in pig prices
As a consequence of drought in large parts of Europe, and especially in Slovakia, crop yields in Slovakia are expected to be 35% lower than expected. At the same time, pig prices have decreased over the summer. As a result, FirstFarms adjusts downwards the previous announced expectations for 2026 by 20 mDKK to an EBITDA in the level of minus 5 – 45 mDKK and an EBIT of minus 75 – minus 25 mDKK.
| Announced expectations 2026 EBITDA EBIT |
| 26 August 2026 minus 5 – 45 mDKK minus 75 – minus 25 mDKK |
| 8 July 2026 15 – 65 mDKK minus 55 – minus 5 mDKK |
| 25 March 2026 60 – 110 mDKK -10 – +40 mDKK |
The crops in Romania are in general good condition, where FirstFarms has more than 2,000 hectares under irrigation. In addition, there have also been good conditions for crops without irrigation, and good yields are therefore expected.
Best regards,
FirstFarms A/S
