AUBAY : First-quarter 2026 revenue: EUR 178.2 million - Excellent start to 2026 (Reported growth of 30.9% Organic growth of 10.6%)

* Pre-audit figures

In the first-quarter of 2026, Aubay reported consolidated revenues of €178.2 million, up 30.9% on the first quarter of 2025, including 10.6% on a like-for-like basis, a level ahead of the Group's expectations.

This performance reflects a general improvement in demand, combined with a strong sales momentum, a high level of activity and a favorable price effect in all the main geographical areas.

Aubay has benefited from the expansion of its customer portfolio, notably due to the integration of Solutec and the acquisition of numerous new accounts and projects. In particular, AI for IT is emerging as a strategic component of our offering, contributing to our development and commercial success.

Growth was achieved in the Group's key target sectors: financial services, energy and utilities, industry and transportation.

In France, Aubay reported strong revenue growth to €111.6 million, up 50.5% including 13.3% organic growth. Thanks to Aubay's positioning and the recognition of its expertise, the number of projects won has increased significantly. France remains fundamental to the Group's organic growth.

Internationally, revenue reached €66.6 million, representing a purely organic growth of 7.4%.

This trend is the result of the return to growth in Italy and continued improvement in the Iberian region. Demand is buoyant and price effects are also positive.

As Aubay conducts most of its business in the euro zone, any impact from changes in exchange rates is minimal.
