President and CEO Yannick Fierling's comment
Growth in focus product categories supported organic sales growth
The market environment for home appliances in the fourth quarter was marked by high promotional activity and competitive pressure across regions. In Europe, the market slightly declined from an already subdued level, whereas Latin America noted a continued positive consumer demand, although with a lower growth rate in Brazil. In North America, market demand was slightly positive, primarily driven by laundry. The price environment in the U.S., was pressured in this highly promotional quarter and the market price levels remained at a similar level as the previous year despite significantly higher U.S, tariffs.
Organic sales growth was positive in the quarter, driven by Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, Africa and Latin America. In Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa, the organic sales increase was driven by volume growth in focus product categories, offsetting a negative price development. Higher volumes in Latin America were partly offset by a negative price development and slightly unfavorable mix. In North America, organic sales declined compared to a significant increase in the previous year. Sales declined due to a challenging pricing environment where we reduced price from previously implemented price increases to remain competitive as the market price levels did not adjust for any tariffrelated cost increases.
Operating income improved significantly, despite challenging U.S. pricing environment
Operating income improved significantly in the quarter, with strong improvements in both business area Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa, and in Latin America. Both regions had a positive contribution from increased sales volumes, whereas the price development had a negative impact. In North America, the pricing pressure resulted in us aligning our price levels to market prices from the previously implemented price increases. Increased tariff costs, together with currency headwinds, resulted in an operating loss in the fourth quarter for the business area. Cost efficiency for the Group contributed with SEK 1.2bn, and we continued to make good progress on delivering cost savings mainly from sourcing and product engineering in all business areas.
Operating cash flow exceeded the previous year's level, primarily due to significant inventory reductions during the quarter and disciplined capital expenditure prioritization. The financial position strengthened and the net debt to EBITDA ratio declined to 3.0x.
Strengthened market position and good execution of our strategic priorities for the full year 2025
We delivered on our strategic priorities in 2025. For the full year, we strengthened our market share in both Europe and North America and the market position in Latin America remained strong.
Operating income improved in 2025, primarily driven by cost reductions in all business areas bringing the total cost efficiency contribution to SEK 4bn. Our focus on prioritized product categories resulted in a
positive contribution from increased volumes and improved mix to earnings. Increased tariff costs in the U.S., and strong currency headwinds had a significant negative impact. Investments in innovation and marketing increased to support our product portfolio and the rollout of new innovations.
Outlook for 2026 - Market outlook
In North America, we expect market demand to be neutral to negative in 2026. Geoeconomic uncertainty is foreseen to continue in North America, and under the current tariff structure, general market pricing should adjust to reflect associated tariff costs. This may adversely impact consumer demand and market growth. In Europe, we expect market demand to be neutral in 2026. There are signs of recovery as a consequence of lower inflation and interest rates in Europe, however market demand is expected to remain subdued, due to continued dampening impact from geopolitical uncertainty. In Brazil, we also expect market demand to be neutral in 2026. We expect the market development and consumer demand to stabilize following growth in 2024 and 2025.
Business outlook
Organic earnings contribution from volume, price and mix is expected to be positive in 2026, driven by volume growth and a favorable mix. Growth in our focus categories is expected to be partly offset by a negative price development. We anticipate that a high degree of demand will continue to be driven by replacement purchases. Similar to 2025, investments in innovation and marketing are projected to increase. External factors are expected to be significantly negative for the year, driven mainly by increased tariff costs. The impact from currencies and raw material is expected to be relatively neutral. Our focus on cost savings and improved efficiency throughout the Group is critical for our competitiveness, and we anticipate SEK 3.5-4bn earnings contributions from cost efficiency in 2026. Capital expenditure is expected to increase compared to 2025.
Organizational changes - another step to get closer to our consumers
As we move into 2026, rapid transformation in the home appliance industry will continue at a high pace, requiring us to effectively execute on our strategic priorities. Agility and speed are key enablers for us to achieve our targets. Today, we announced changes to our leadership team and organization aiming at reducing complexity and improving cost competitiveness. With the announced changes taking effect February 1, we are simplifying our structure, clarifying responsibilities, and increasing consumer centricity - key steps to strengthen our agility and to accelerate innovation.

"In 2025, our continued focus on strategic priorities resulted in a strengthened market position and a significantly improved operating income."

Net sales
The positive organic sales growth in the fourth quarter was driven by Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa, and Latin America. In Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa, organic sales increased, with a positive mix and higher volumes offsetting a negative price development. Higher volumes in Latin America were partly offset by a negative price development and slightly unfavorable mix. In North America, competitive pressure negatively affected sales, and organic sales declined mainly due to unfavorable mix, with a slightly negative development in volumes and deteriorating development of price in the quarter. Aftermarket sales for the Group declined year-over-year.

Operating income
Operating income increased with a positive contribution of SEK 1.2bn from increased cost efficiency, primarily through reduced product cost. External factors were significantly negative, mainly due to increased costs related to U.S. tariffs, and currency headwinds. Higher sales volumes and improved mix compensated for most of the negative impact from an adverse price development. Investments in innovation and marketing increased to support the product portfolio and rollout of new products. In the fourth quarter of 2024, operating income included a positive impact of SEK 185m in North America from the divestment of all of the Group's potential legacy asbestos exposure in the U.S. It also included a negative non-recurring item of SEK -198m related to the divestment of the water heater business in South Africa, see page 20.
Financial net
Net financial items amounted to SEK -514m (-390). The change was mainly a result of higher debt in high interest rate countries.
Taxes
Income taxes for the fourth quarter were SEK -537m (-512) with an effective tax rate of 54% (77).
Income for the period
Income for the period amounted to SEK 466m (150), corresponding to SEK 1.72 (0.56) in earnings per share.

Market overview
In the fourth quarter, overall market demand in Europe decreased slightly year-over-year, while in the U.S. market demand increased slightly. In Europe, consumers shifted to lower price points driven by geopolitical and economic uncertainty. In the U.S., inflation concerns related to tariffs, weighed on consumer confidence.

Business areas
Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa
- Slight market decline in Europe
- AEG and Electrolux brands continued to gain market share
- Operating margin strengthened
Slight market decline in Europe
During the quarter, market demand in Europe decreased by 1% year-over-year. Western Europe, representing ~80% of the market, declined by 1%, while in Eastern Europe the market grew by 2%. Consumer demand continued to be mainly replacement driven.
In Asia-Pacific, consumer demand is estimated to have increased slightly year-over-year.
Competitive pressure increased across markets. The negative impact on consumer sentiment in Europe by geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainty contributed to consumers shifting to lower price points. Consumers continued postponing discretionary purchases, and demand for built-in kitchen products in Europe remained subdued.
AEG and Electrolux brands continued to gain market share
The business area reported an organic sales increase, driven by improved mix and higher volumes. The rollout of recently launched AEG and Electrolux built-in kitchen products contributed to higher value market share and improved mix that was also supported by the phaseout of the brand Zanussi in Europe. The price pressure in the market was high, resulting in a negative impact from price development.
Strong earnings performance
Operating income increased. The positive effect from mix improvements and higher volumes largely offset the negative price impact. Increased cost efficiency contributed positively to earnings with product cost reductions driven mainly by purchasing savings and value engineering. Investments in innovation and marketing continued, but had a positive effect on earnings due to the phasing between quarters. The impact from external factors was slightly negative, driven by labor cost inflation. Operating income in the fourth quarter 2024 included a negative non-recurring item of SEK -198m related to the divestment of the water heater business in South Africa.

North America
- Slight increase in market demand
- Sales decline mainly due to unfavorable mix
- External factors significantly negative
Highly promotional market
During the quarter, market demand for core appliances in terms of units increased by 1%, where the main increase was in laundry, while declines were noted within cooking and refrigeration categories. Consumer demand remained fairly resilient, although economic uncertainty weighed on consumer confidence. Industry market price movements did not reflect the level of implemented U.S. tariffs structure and market price levels was essentially flat year-over-year, representing a highly promotional Black Friday-quarter where consumers continued to prefer lower price points.
Unfavorable mix in challenging market
The business area reported an organic sales decline compared to a significant increase in the fourth quarter 2024. Volumes were slightly lower than last year as a consequence of high price competition, also putting pressure on mix with consumers trading down to lower price categories. In previous quarters, price increases were implemented to cover for increased U.S. tariff related costs. In the fourth quarter, price was reduced to remain competitive in the promotional period, hence the price impact on net sales was slightly negative year-over-year with a deteriorating price development through the quarter. Mix was unfavorable with competitive pressure negatively affecting sales of higher-value categories, mainly in refrigeration, and a negative impact from lower aftermarket sales.
Operating loss due to significantly negative external factors
Operating income was negative, with a deterioration yearover-year when comparing with the fourth quarter 2024, excluding the positive impact of SEK 185m related to the divestment of all of Electrolux Group's potential legacy asbestos exposure in the U.S. The negative operating income was mainly due to significant negative external factors driven primarily by increased costs from U.S. tariffs but also due to currency headwinds from the weakening of the U.S. dollar. In the challenging price environment, previously implemented price increases had to be withdrawn, and hence it was not possible to mitigate the significant headwind from external factors. The organic contribution was unfavorable. Investments increased in innovation and marketing as the business area remained committed to supporting the strong product portfolio and product launches. Increased cost efficiency mitigated the year-over-year decline in earnings, with the positive impact mainly driven by product cost reductions through purchasing savings, value engineering, and finished goods sourcing.

Latin America
- Increased consumer demand
- Organic sales growth driven by higher volumes
- Cost efficiency had a positive impact on earnings
Increased consumer demand
During the fourth quarter, consumer demand for core appliances is estimated to have been strong in the region. In Brazil, the growth rate is estimated to have slowed slightly year-over-year. Consumer demand in Argentina and Chile continued to be strong. Promotional activity and competitive pressure increased across the region, most notably in Argentina where the strong market growth was driven mainly by imported goods.
Organic sales growth driven by higher volumes
The business area reported positive organic sales growth, driven by higher volumes. Volume growth was predominantly driven by Brazil with a strong Black Friday promotional period and a heatwave at the end of the quarter benefiting sales of air care products. Electrolux Group's market position remained strong. In Argentina, the introduction of new products, within refrigeration, contributed positively to growth. Price and mix had a negative impact, particularly in Brazil, driven by increased competition and higher price pressure.
Cost efficiency had a positive impact on earnings
Operating income and margin increased year-over-year, primarily due to a positive impact from cost efficiency and higher volumes, partly offset by a negative price development. The positive impact from cost reductions was primarily driven by value engineering and product cost savings, and further supported by an one-time high level of supplier rebates in the quarter. External factors were essentially flat as the negative currency impact from the Argentinean peso was offset by a stronger Brazilian real. Investments in sales support for brand building activities and direct to consumer sales increased slightly.

Notes
Note 1 Accounting principles
Electrolux Group applies International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union. This report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2 'Accounting for legal entities' issued by the Swedish Corporate Reporting Board.
Electrolux Group's interim reports contain a condensed set of financial statements. For the Group this chiefly means that the disclosures are limited compared to the consolidated financial statements presented in the annual report. For the Parent Company, this means that the financial statements in general are presented in condensed versions and with limited disclosures compared to the annual report.
The accounting policies applied are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the Group's Annual Report 2024, except for the adoption of standard amendments effective as of January 1, 2025. These changes have not had any material impact on the financial statements. See section 'New or amended accounting standards to be applied after 2024' in the Annual Report 2024, for more information on the standard amendments.
Note 2 Disaggregation of revenue
Electrolux Group manufactures and sells appliances mainly in the wholesale market to customers being retailers. Electrolux Group's products include refrigerators, freezers, dishwashers, washing machines, dryers, cookers, microwave ovens, vacuum cleaners, air conditioners and small domestic appliances. Electrolux Group has three regional business areas with focus on the consumer market.
Sales of products are revenue recognized at a point in time when control of the products has transferred. Revenue from services related to installation of products, repairs or maintenance service is recognized when control is transferred being over the time the service is provided. Sales of services are not material in relation to Electrolux Group's total net sales.
Geography and product category are considered important attributes when disaggregating Electrolux Group's revenue. The three business areas, also being the Group's segments, are based on geography: Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa; North America and Latin America. For business area information, see pages 6-8. In addition, the table below presents net sales by product area Taste (cooking, refrigeration and freezer appliances), Care (dish and laundry appliances) and Wellbeing (e.g., air conditioners, cleaning appliances and small domestic appliances). Products within all product areas are sold in each of the reportable segments, i.e., the business areas, as presented in the graph below.

Electrolux Group strives for arranging master netting agreements (ISDA) with the counterparts for derivative transactions and has established such agreements with the majority of the counterparties, i.e., if a counterparty will default, assets and liabilities will be netted. Derivatives are presented gross in the balance sheet.

Fair value estimation
Valuation of financial instruments at fair value is done at the most accurate market prices available. Instruments which are quoted on the market, e.g., the major bond and interest-rate future markets, are all marked-to-market with the current price. The foreign exchange spot rate is used to convert the value into SEK. For instruments where no reliable price is available on the market, cash flows are discounted using the deposit/swap curve of the cash flow currency. If no proper cash flow schedule is available, e.g., as in the case with forward-rate agreements, the underlying schedule is used for valuation purposes.
To the extent option instruments are used, the valuation is based on the Black & Scholes' formula. The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values. The fair value of financial liabilities is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate for similar financial instruments. The Group's financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value according to the following hierarchy:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. On December 31, 2025, the fair value for Level 1 financial assets was SEK 162m (167) and for financial liabilities SEK 0m (0).
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for assets or liabilities either directly or indirectly. On December 31, 2025, the fair value of Level 2 financial assets was SEK 101m (408) and financial liabilities SEK 359m (186).
Level 3: Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not entirely based on observable market data. On December 31, 2025, the fair value of Level 3 financial assets was SEK 68m (69) and financial liabilities SEK 0m (0).

Update on legal proceedings
Note 25 in the Annual Report 2024 includes information about a ruling issued in the fourth quarter 2023 by the Brazilian Supreme Federal Court regarding a specific state value added tax for the fiscal year 2022. No provision relating to this matter has been set. In Q4 2025, it has been concluded that the consequences of this ruling will not have a material impact on Electrolux Group's financial result.
For more information on contingent liabilities see Note 25 in the Annual Report 2024.
Note 5 Acquisitions and divestments
There were no acquisitions or divestments completed during 2025.
The divestment of the water heater business in South Africa was completed in December 2024, with a final adjustment in June 2025. The divestment of the asbestos exposure in the U.S. occurred in December 2024.
Divestment of the South African water heater business in 2024
Electrolux Group announced on July 18, 2024, that an agreement had been signed to divest the water heater business (Kwikot brand) in South Africa. The divestment was completed on December 2, 2024, following regulatory approvals.
Net sales in 2023 related to the water heater business amounted to approximately ZAR 1.9bn (approx. SEK 1.1bn). Divested total assets amount to SEK 1.9bn, divested net assets amount to SEK 1.1bn. Proceeds received amounted to SEK 1.1bn and the net cash flow effect from the divestment amounts to approximately SEK 1.0bn. The divestment had a total impact on the fullyear 2024 result of SEK -566m, including an impairment of goodwill of SEK -368m which was affecting the result in the third quarter 2024. The negative earnings effect of SEK -198m in the fourth quarter 2024 included SEK -132m from the reclassification of accumulated negative currency effect in equity. The reclassification did not affect total equity.
The divestment effect in 2024 was treated as a non-recurring item for business area Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa. A final adjustment was made in June 2025 with a cash flow impact of SEK -6m.

Definitions and reconciliations of alternative performance measures
_____________________________________________________________________
This report includes financial measures as required by the financial reporting framework applicable to Electrolux Group, which is based on IFRS. In addition, Electrolux Group presents certain measures that are not defined under IFRS (alternative performance measures – "APMs"). These are used by management to assess the financial and operational performance of the Group. Management believes that these APMs provide useful information regarding the Group's financial and operating performance. Such measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Consequently, APMs have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for related financial measures prepared in accordance to IFRS. The APMs have been derived from the Group's internal reporting and are not audited. The APM reconciliations can be found on the Group's website electroluxgroup.com/ir/definitions
Computation of average amounts and annualized income statement measures
In computation of key ratios where averages of capital balances are related to income statement measures, the average capital balances are based on the opening balance and all quarter-end closing balances included in the reporting period, and the income statement measures are annualized, translated at average rates for the period. In computation of key ratios where end-of-period capital balances are related to income statement measures, the latter are annualized, translated at end-of-period exchange rates. Adjustments are made for acquired and divested operations.
