Priorities for 2026 include 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 continue to revolve around the unpredictability of the global geopolitical and economic dynamics, and in particular, the potential impact of the conflict in the Middle East and the potentially negative financial effect of trade tariffs, as well as the possible adverse impact on customer demand and investment behaviour. Other risk factors to be considered are exchange rate volatility, changes in energy and transportation costs, and competitive pressure in general.
