Adjusted EBITDA for the first nine months of 2026 increased to EUR 53.3 million (9M 2025: EUR 45.8 million), representing an increase of 16% compared with the prior-year period. Reported EBITDA amounted to EUR 57.5 million (9M 2025: EUR 59.4 million) and group net income reached EUR 44.4 million (9M 2025: EUR 41.7 million). This corresponds to earnings per share of EUR 1.69 (9M 2025: EUR 2.03). Dr. Dominik Benner, CEO of The Platform Group SE & Co. KGaA: “In the third quarter, we met our growth target profitably and almost entirely organically. At the same time, our new group structure has enabled us to start reducing costs, headcount and debt. We will stay on this course in the fourth quarter and continue to capitalise on market opportunities. We confirm our guidance for 2026.” Key figures
