HORNBACH Group: Full year figures in line with guidance – reduced earnings in Q4 2025/26 Bornheim (Palatinate), Germany, March 20, 2026 Based on preliminary figures, HORNBACH Holding AG & Co. KGaA (ISIN DE0006083405) has achieved its full year guidance provided on May 21, 2025. In the 2025/26 financial year, HORNBACH Group increased net sales by 3.8% to EUR 6,433.9 million (Guidance: at or slightly above* the previous year’s figure of EUR 6,200 million) and, as expected, recorded an adjusted EBIT at EUR 264.7 million, which is at** the level reported for the 2024/25 financial year (EUR 269.5 million). However, in Q4 2025/26 (December 1, 2025 to February 28, 2026) earnings declined relative to previous year’s quarter. While net sales in Q4 2025/26 grew by 3.8% to EUR 1,296.1 million (Q4 2024/25: EUR 1,249.1 million), higher costs could not be fully offset. As a result, adjusted EBIT decreased by EUR 4.3 million or 14.0% to EUR -34.8 million (Q4 2024/25: EUR -30.5 million). Due to seasonal factors, the winter quarter (Q4) is usually the weakest quarter of the financial year with negative contribution to adjusted EBIT. Guidance nomenclature: * Sales: “At previous year's level” = -2% to +2% | “Slight” = +/-2% to +/-6% | “Significant” = changes of = >+/-6%.  ** Adj. EBIT: “At previous year's level” = -5% to +5% | “Slight” = +/-5% to +/-12% | “Significant" = > +/-12%.   The preliminary figures for Q4/FY 2025/26 are shown in the table: EUR million Q4 2025/26 Q4 2024/25 Change in % FY 2025/26 FY 2024/25 Change in % Net sales 1,296.1 1,249.1 3.8 6,433.9 6,200.0 3.8 Adjusted EBIT -34.8  -30.5 -14.0 264.7 269.5 -1.8   The Trading Statement for the 2025/26 financial year will be published on March 25, 2026.
