Guidance rises to EUR 120 million

The guidance change also sharpened the earnings comparison. Third-quarter 2025 EBIT was EUR 18.3 million, while MLP expected third-quarter 2026 EBIT to be significantly higher, according to the October 2 release.

On October 21, 2026, an investor update put first-half 2026 revenue growth at 10 percent and EBIT growth at more than 40 percent to around EUR 60 million, according to Quartr.
