About this update from Orbis Se
ORBIS can look back on stable business performance in the first half of 2026. ORBIS SE's consolidated revenue for the first half of 2026 rose by 0.7% year-over-year to T€ 67,991 (previous year: T€ 67,499); revenue generated by the company's own employees increased by 4.3% compared to the previous year to T€ 51,472 (previous year: T€ 49,347). The number of employees remained virtually unchanged from the previous year: 898 employees as of June 30, 2026 (previous year: 892 employees). Operating income (EBIT) increased by 17.5% to T€ 2,709 (previous year: T€ 2,305). For the first half of 2026, consolidated net income amounted to T€ 1,852 (previous year: T€ 1,473). Taking into account the share of earnings attributable to other shareholders (minority interests) in the amount of T€ 385, the consolidated net income attributable to the shareholders of ORBIS SE for the first half of 2026 amounts to T€ 1,467 (previous year: T€ 884). Earnings per share thus improved to €0.16 as of June 30, 2026 (previous year: €0.09). ORBIS SE is an internationally active software and business consulting firm serving the industrial, automotive supply, consumer goods, retail, and construction supply sectors. Digital transformation - with a focus on AI - is at the top of the agenda for all companies. ORBIS has established itself as a competent partner on the path to the digital future. ORBIS expects this to provide further competitive advantages over other market participants in the future. ORBIS also anticipates that ORBIS SE's business activities will continue to develop steadily for the remainder of the year. However, should the challenging macro-economic environment persist, ORBIS cannot rule out a negative impact on ORBIS SE's business activities in the second half of 2026. For the 2026 fiscal year, we anticipate a single-digit percentage increase in revenue and a significant improvement in EBIT in both the Domestic and International segments, provided that the overall economic situation does not deteriorate further.
