Expectations for the full year 2025/2026
Management expects the challenging market conditions that have affected the furniture industry will continue throughout the remainder of the 2025/2026 financial year, primarily as a result of continued geopolitical risks.

After 6 months of the 2025/2026 financial year, revenue from continuing activities is expected to remain unchanged at DKK 510–550 million and operating profit (EBIT) of DKK 40–55 million.
