Financial outlook
The results for the first half of 2026 and the positive development in the order intake during the second quarter

of the ongoing geopolitical uncertainty on consumer sentiment and demand. In consideration of this we are main-
taining our present financial guidance for 2026 as a whole. Consequently, TCM Group expects full-year revenue
in the range of DKK 1,400-1,500 million and adjusted EBITA of between DKK 120 million and DKK 140 million.
