EVS revises its full year 2026 revenue outlook

Summary

Full-year revenue now expected between EUR 190 million and EUR 205 million, reflecting lower-than-expected order intake and extended customer investment decision cycles

Liège, Belgium, October 7, 2026

EVS today announces that, based on its most recent assessment of trading developments, order intake and the expected timing of customer investment decisions, it is revising its revenue outlook for the financial year ending December 31, 2026.

EVS now expects full-year 2026 revenue to be in the range of EUR 190 million to EUR 205 million, compared with the previously communicated guidance of EUR 220 million to EUR 240 million.

Factors underlying the revised outlook

Order intake in September was significantly below the level anticipated by the company.
Investment decisions by a number of customers are taking materially longer than expected; notably due to the continuously degrading global geopolitical situation. As a result, commercial opportunities representing approximately 25% of the pipeline that had previously been expected to mature during the fourth quarter 2026 have been moved to 2027.
A number of commercial opportunities for 2026 have been cancelled due to clients budget constraints.

The developments principally affect the timing of order intake and revenue recognition. The relevant commercial opportunities remain subject to customer decisions, normal competitive processes and the timing of order placement and delivery.

Profitability guidance and next update

The company is currently assessing the impact of the revised revenue outlook on profitability, taking into account the expected business mix, order conversion and operating leverage in the final months of the year. An updated profitability guidance for 2026 will be provided when EVS publishes its third-quarter 2026 trading update on November 17, 2026, after market closing.

EVS continues to closely monitor order conversion, customer decision timelines and global geopolitical developments. Management remains focused on customer engagement, disciplined execution and cost control.

Comments

Serge Van Herck, CEO of EVS, commented:

“The significant slowdown in order intake observed in September, combined with longer customer investment decision cycles, means that we no longer expect to achieve our previously communicated revenue guidance for 2026.

While the timing of a substantial number of customer decisions has moved beyond the current financial year, the vast majority of the underlying commercial opportunities is still being pursued. Our teams remain closely engaged with customers and focused on converting these opportunities into orders.”

Commenting on the outlook, Christophe Piron, CFO, said:

“The revised revenue outlook is expected to have a negative impact on profitability in 2026, the extent of which will depend on order conversion, business mix and operating leverage during the remainder of the year.

We will provide a comprehensive update on our 2026 profitability outlook with our third-quarter trading update on November 17.”
