EUROCASH: Wstępne wybrane szacunkowe skonsolidowane wyniki finansowe Grupy Eurocash za 3 kwartał 2026 r. oraz za okres 9 miesięcy zakończonych 30 września 2026 r. - pb.pl
Eurocash S.A. has released preliminary estimated consolidated financial results for the third quarter of 2026, showing a decline in sales revenue and EBITDA but an increase in net profit attributable to shareholders.
The management board of Eurocash S.A. has disclosed selected preliminary estimated consolidated financial results for the third quarter of 2026 and the nine-month period ended 30 September 2026.
The group's sales revenue for Q3 2026 amounted to PLN 7,280 million, a decrease of 8% compared to the same period in 2025.
This decline was driven by the restructuring of the company-owned Delikatesy Centrum store network, which involved store closures and transfers to franchisees.
Lower sales were also recorded in Eurocash Dystrybucja and Cash&Carry, partly offset by growth in Eurocash Serwis and Frisco.
Gross profit on sales for Q3 2026 was PLN 881 million, down 15% year-on-year, resulting in a gross margin of 12.1% compared to 13.0% in the previous year.
Cost optimisation and profit improvement
Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) decreased by 14% year-on-year to PLN 822 million, reflecting the ongoing cost optimisation programme and network restructuring.
The group's estimated EBITDA for Q3 2026 was PLN 216 million, down 7% year-on-year, while operating profit (EBIT) increased by 3% to PLN 89 million.
Other operating income rose to PLN 38 million, including one-off items totalling approximately PLN 13 million.
The results for Q3 2026 also include one-off items related to the group's transformation, which reduced EBITDA by PLN 21 million and EBIT by PLN 22 million.
Despite the challenges, the group's net profit from continuing operations increased to PLN 29 million, up 44% year-on-year.
Consolidated net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company rose to PLN 16 million, a significant increase from PLN 7 million in the same period of 2025.
Nine-month performance and outlook
For the first nine months of 2026, the group's sales revenue stood at PLN 21,139 million, a 7% year-on-year decrease.
EBITDA for the period was PLN 539 million, down 8% year-on-year, while EBIT increased by 4% to PLN 145 million.
The group reported a net loss from continuing operations of PLN 44 million, an improvement from the PLN 60 million loss in the same period of 2025.
The consolidated net loss attributable to shareholders of the parent company was PLN 69 million, compared to a loss of PLN 92 million a year earlier.
The company states that the financial data presented are estimates prepared based on the management board's knowledge as of 2 November 2026.
The final results will be published in the consolidated quarterly report for the third quarter of 2026, scheduled for 19 November 2026, followed by a results conference on 20 November 2026.
