Berentzen-Gruppe Aktiengesellschaft: Interim Report 9M 2026 / Preliminary business figures as of September 30, 2026

Berentzen-Gruppe Aktiengesellschaft, which is listed on the Regulated Market (General Standard) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (ISIN: DE0005201602), expects, based on preliminary operating results for the first three quarters of the 2026 financial year available today, a normalised consolidated operating profit (consolidated EBIT) of EUR 1.3 million (9M 2025: EUR 5.6 million) and a normalised consolidated operating profit before depreciation and amortisation (consolidated EBITDA) of EUR 7.9 million (9M 2025: EUR 12.0 million). Consolidated revenues are expected to amount to EUR 107.6 million (9M 2025: EUR 119.4 million; adjustment of the previous year's figure due to changes in accounting standards).

The weaker performance of key earnings figures in the first two quarter of the 2026 financial year, compared to the same period last year, has continued in the third quarter. The main reason for this continues to be, in particular, lower sales volumes in the German market against the backdrop of continued consumer restraint.

The forecast for the 2026 financial year, updated on July 17, 2026 and confirmed with the publication of the Group's half-yearly financial report on August 13, 2026, remains unchanged. Accordingly, the Berentzen Group expects consolidated revenues in the range of EUR 151.0 to 156.0 million, a consolidated operating profit (consolidated EBIT) in the range of EUR 3.5 to 5.0 million and a consolidated operating profit before depreciation and amortisation (consolidated EBITDA) in the range of EUR 12.4 to 13.9 million.

The preliminary business figures for the first three quarters of the 2026 financial year of Berentzen-Gruppe Aktiengesellschaft are subject to review by the Supervisory Board’s Finance and Audit Committee. The final business figures as well as further information on the first three quarters of the 2026 financial year will be published as planned on October 22, 2026 with the Interim Report 9M 2026.
