Anora Group: Comparable EBITDA Rose in Q4 Driven by Improved Execution

Anora Group Plc reported a 7.7% increase in its comparable EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2025, reaching EUR 31.1 million compared to the same period in the previous year.

The company stated that improved operational execution and stringent cost management drove the profit increase. However, net sales decreased by 5.4% to EUR 194.3 million during the quarter. For the full year 2025, net sales stood at EUR 657.9 million, a 4.9% decrease from the prior year.

Full-year 2025 comparable EBITDA amounted to EUR 71.1 million, a 3.2% increase from 2024. The Board of Directors has proposed a dividend of EUR 0.24 per share for the 2025 financial year. Anora also issued guidance for 2026, expecting comparable EBITDA to be between EUR 74-79 million.

CEO Kirsi Puntila highlighted that the final quarter was the company's strongest since the merger of Altia and Arcus, noting improvements in gross margins and cost efficiencies. While market declines have presented challenges to net sales, the company is reinforcing its new strategy focused on improving profitability and returning to growth by 2028.

The company cited successful product launches in Sweden and strong performance from its Blossa, Jaloviina, and Koskenkorva brands. Anora maintained its market leadership in the Nordic wine markets, although market shares in the spirits segment declined in monopoly countries.
