The project component, including WIP, rose to 3,1 million euros, compared to 2,6 million euros (+19,3%), partly due to the sale of a project with a licensing component.

EBITDA came in at 665 thousand euros, compared to 186 thousand euros as of June 30, 2025 (+257,8%). The EBITDA margin, calculated as a percentage of production value in line with the 2025 press release, rose from 2,1% to 6,6%. EBITDA is calculated as the difference between the value of production and production costs, before depreciation, amortization, and impairment charges.

Operating costs, net of depreciation, amortization, and impairment charges, increased by 10,4%, rising from 8,5 to 9,4 million euros. Personnel expenses rose by 21,2% to 5,1 million euros, following the hiring of staff dedicated to business development, infrastructure, and customer support. Total other operating expenses remained essentially stable at 4,3 million euros; hosting costs and expenses related to company premises increased, while costs for third-party services decreased.

Depreciation, amortization, and impairment losses totaled 1,7 million euros, compared with 1,4 million euros as of June 30, 2025.

Consolidated net income was a loss of 1.282.392 euros, compared with a loss of 1.524.924 euros in the previous fiscal year, representing a decrease of 15,9%.

The net financial position shows net debt of 1.178.108 euros as of June 30, 2026, compared with 1.669.111 euros as of June 30, 2025, and 1.078.328 euros as of December 31, 2025. The year-over-year improvement of 491 thousand euros compared to the previous fiscal year reflects a reduction in short- and long-term financial debt of 546 thousand euros, partially offset by a decrease in cash and cash equivalents and financial assets included in the net financial position statement of 55 thousand euros. Compared to December 31, 2025, debt increased by 100 thousand euros. In addition to investments attributable to the internal costs for product development and innovation capitalized as described above, during the fiscal year the Group incurred additional investments of 869.973 euros in the TAM product aimed at improving and expanding its features and processes. The figures are taken from the NFP statement and must be reconciled with the balance sheet.

In the text, the NFP is presented as positive net debt, calculated by subtracting cash and cash equivalents from financial liabilities. In the attachments, the convention used in the previous press release is maintained, with negative liabilities and positive cash and cash equivalents: a negative NFP balance therefore indicates net debt.

Consolidated shareholders’ equity amounts to 2.399.632 euros, compared with 2.785.025 euros as of December 31, 2025, and 1.170.059 euros as of June 30, 2025.
