In 2025, we reached an EBITDA of DKK 501m supported by the Halmstad warehouse sale. In Q4, the EBITDA adjusted for non-recurring items followed the same development as in Q2 and Q3 2025. EBITDA remained pressured by uncertain market conditions and an unfavourable segment mix. We expect these challenges to persist well into 2026, with markets remaining unpredictable and difficult to navigate.

CEO Jens Andersen says:
“Despite a challenging market environment in 2025, we made decisive investments that strengthen our foundation for long-term, sustainable growth. The acquisition of Sonepar Norge is a significant step in reinforcing our position in Norway, expanding our reach, scale, and customer offering. Integration is progressing ahead of plan and will be completed in 2026.

At the same time, we continued to invest in digital transformation, enhancing our platforms to deliver a more seamless, transparent, and efficient customer experience. In parallel, the construction of our fully automated logistics centre in Kumla is progressing ahead of expectations and will be operational in late Q2 2026, improving service levels, efficiency, and sustainability – and marking our return to a normal investment level of below 1% of revenue.

While geopolitical uncertainty and slower market recovery tested our resilience in 2025, we acted decisively by optimising our cost base and improving efficiency. Our strategic direction remains clear: to build a more agile, sustainable business and deliver stronger performance.”

* EBITDA adjusted for non-recurring items amounted to DKK 503m impacted by gain from sale of warehouse of DKK 74m, restructuring cost of DKK 47m, transition costs of DKK 14m and integration and acquisition costs of DKK 15m.

2026 revenue
Revenue is positively impacted by two key drivers: first, a Solar Polaris project, which includes deliveries to a major solar park and is expected to contribute a total of DKK 275m. Second, the acquisition of Sonepar Norge last year adds an additional DKK 700m in revenue.

2026 EBITDA
Following the acquisition of Sonepar Norge last year, 2026 is expected to serve as a transition year for Solar’s Norwegian operations. This, in combination with anticipated restructuring costs of DKK 35m and integration costs of DKK 50m, will temporarily dilute the EBITDA margin for Solar Group by approximately 0.7 percentage points. From 2027 onwards, the acquisition is expected to contribute positively and strengthen the Group’s overall margin.
