NewPrinces, first-half revenue above 3 billion. In 2026, EBITDA at 350 million

NewPrinces closes the first half of the year 2026 with consolidated revenue of over 3 billion euros, compared with 1,3 billion in the first half of 2025 (+131%), mainly thanks to the contribution of the acquisitions completed in the last quarter of 2025.

On a like-for-like basis, sales volumes remain substantially stable. Consolidated EBITDA amounts to 170,1 million, up 64,1%: profitability accelerated in the second quarter, with the half-year EBITDA margin reaching 5,6%, a marked improvement compared with the 4,8% recorded in the first quarter of 2026.
The consolidated net result was negative at 5,8 million for the half-year, compared with a profit of 22,2 million in the first half of 2025.

Geopolitical uncertainty

Despite the persistence of an uncertain geopolitical situation, a statement reads, “there are no direct and quantifiable impacts on the Group’s economic, equity and financial position. However, management continues to closely monitor developments in the geopolitical context and macroeconomic environment, in order to promptly assess any indirect effects that may emerge during the financial year, particularly in terms of increased procurement costs, energy price volatility and possible inflationary pressures”.
For the full 2026, EBITDA is estimated to be between 330 and 350 million.

Long integration process

The Group’s net debt at 30 June amounted to 67,3 million, a marked improvement compared with 83,8 million at 31 December 2025. Excluding the application of IFRS 16, the Group reports a positive cash position of 314 million.
In a company statement, chairman Angelo Mastrolia said that “the second-quarter results confirm the strength of the path undertaken by NewPrinces. After a first quarter devoted to integrating a significantly expanded perimeter, in a complex market environment, we recorded a strong acceleration in profitability and returned to generating a strongly positive operating result and net profit”.

Furthermore, “the second-quarter performance shows that the expansion of the perimeter is translating into greater efficiency and profitability. We are approaching the second half of the year with confidence, maintaining our focus on integrating the acquired activities, operational efficiency, cash generation and the creation of sustainable long-term value”.
