ALCONETECONABLE COMPANY
Financial outlook for 2026 is unchanged
| Guidance | |

| Units sold | 8,700-10,700 |
| Revenue | DKK 200 – 240M |

The company is exposed to risks that might affect our ability to reach our goals, such as currency fluctuations, general market uncertainty, and material changes in our large OEMs' needs for Napatech's products.
We have seen increasing market uncertainty, particularly related to potential trade barriers, including tariff increases in the United States. With our products manufactured in the US and most of our customers also located in the US, we do not feel overly exposed. However, the lack of predictability and uncertainty surrounding tariff increases is a concern, and we will be monitoring the development closely. Further, we have seen an elevated risk driven by a supply-constrained, high-volatile environment across several key areas. This leads to extended lead times and increased prices for certain components.
Comments
- Revenue of $32-38M
- Napatech will continue the current momentum and first orders from Al infrastructure will come in H2
- Products for Al infrastructure comes with a lower gross margin
- Staff expenses & Other external costs to increase slightly compared to 2025, whereas staff costs transferred to capitalized development costs are in line with 2025
- With performance in the middle of the guided ranges, EBITDA would be negative around DKK 25M
