| (in thousands of euros) | YTD Q3 2025 | Q3 2025 | Q2 2025 | Q1 2025 | YTD Q3 2024 | Variance | % |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Order intake | 354,220 | 95,534 | 121,181 | 137,505 | 360,017 | -5,797 | -2% |
| Revenue | 397,990 | 134,856 | 135,601 | 127,533 | 334,818 | 63,172 | 19% |
| Operating Profit (EBIT) | 55,336 | 19,836 | 18,861 | 16,638 | 37,920 | 17,416 | 46% |
| Consolidated result attributable to equity holders |
47,354 | 14,915 | 17,771 | 14,669 | 32,470 | 14,884 | 46% |
| Earnings per share | 5.03 | 1.58 | 1.88 | 1.55 | 3.41 | 1.62 | 48% |
After very solid results in the first nine months, the Group remains on track to deliver a record year with an expected EBIT range between 66 and 71 MEUR. Nonetheless, the recent slowdown in order intake, as well as the geopolitical and economic uncertainty require a cautious stance. The Group's aim is to hold firm to its strategic course and stay relentlessly focused on operational excellence and agility in execution, while investing in sustainable innovation and pursuing growth opportunities in order to solidify its market position and profitability.

Risk factors for the remainder of the year continue to revolve around the unpredictability of the global geopolitical and economic dynamics, and in particular, the potentially negative financial impact of increasing trade tariffs and the possible adverse effect on customer demand and investment behaviour.
Other risk factors to be considered are exchange rate volatility, the evolution of energy and transportation costs, and competitive pressure in general.
On July 23, 2024, JENSEN-GROUP announced the acquisition of a 85% equity stake in MAXI-PRESS, renowned for its leading market share in press cushions as well as its unique range of consumables. The purchase price amounted to 34.4 million euro on a cash-/debt-free basis, corresponding to 85% of the total enterprise value of MAXI-PRESS. Additionally, JENSEN-GROUP committed to acquiring the remaining 15% equity stake currently held by the founding CEO and shareholder, Mr. Zaiser, over the ensuing three years. During 2025, the parties agreed to temporarily postpone the effectiveness of the transfer of the remaining 15% shares.
During Q3, 2025, MAXI-PRESS, expanded its activities through acquisitions in Australia, Germany, New Zealand and the UK. These transactions will impact the consolidated revenue and profitability of the JENSEN-GROUP with less than 5%. These acquisitions will enable the JENSEN-GROUP to further expand its activities within the after-sales business.
In line with our strategy to concentrate on our core strengths and efficient operations through machinery data, we have decided to withdraw from our joint venture, Gotli Labs. The activities will continue under the full ownership of Gotli Labs NL. Data management remains an essential part of our brand promise to create the future in laundry automation, and all JENSEN machines offer simple and efficient integration into existing networks. This open approach allows us to work with additional partners and provide the best digital solutions for our customers.

The Bylaws of the Company allow the purchase of own shares. At its meeting per March 10, 2022, the Board of Directors decided to implement a program to buy back a maximum of 781,900 or 10% of its own shares. During the extraordinary shareholders' meeting of May 16, 2023, the shareholders voted on the cancellation of the 113,873 treasury shares after the Board suspended the program in view of a recent acquisition. Later in the year, the Board decided to re-launch the program and as of September 30, 2025, 313,829 shares have been bought back at an average price of 44.98 euro for a total amount of 14.1 MEUR.
