TCM Group Management’s review
Interim report Q1 2026 (1 January – 31 March)
(All figures in brackets refer to the corresponding period in 2025.)
"A fairly strong start to the year in a volatile market"
CEO Torben Paulin:
"Sales in the first quarter developed as expected, with increasing sales both within B2B and B2C. Revenue in Q1 was DKK 362.4 million, compared to DKK 308.1 million in Q1 2025. Organically, sales in the quarter increased by 8.2% year on year. Sales to Norway contributed positively to the growth in the quarter, growing slightly more than the sales in Denmark.
Overall order intake in the quarter was above last year, driven by the B2C segment. Order intake within the B2B segment was below last year primarily driven by fewer large project orders. Additionally, we observed a continued recovery in the Norwegian market, marked by growth in the order intake.
The gross margin increased to 23.3% in Q1, compared to 21.1% in Q1 2025. The positive trend in gross margin is thus intact and can be traced to a combination of the internal efficiency projects we have launched and a shift in sales mix towards the more profitable B2C segment.
Towards the end of the quarter, we began to see price increases within raw materials as well as an increase in freight costs as a consequence of the rising oil prices.
Operating expenses increased in the quarter, because of the addition of Celebert and two retail stores compared to the same quarter last year. The acquired retail stores will be spun off as soon as we have found suitable new franchisees to run them and we are pleased to announce that one of the acquired stores, the AUBO store in Esbjerg, was sold to a local dealer as of the end of the quarter.
EBIT for the first quarter amounted to DKK 23.0 million, up from DKK 17.1 million in Q1 2025, corresponding to an EBIT margin of 6.3%, compared to 5.6% in the same period last year, with the increase being primarily attributed to the increase in gross margin.
Free cash flow in Q1 was at DKK 48 million, compared to a negative DKK 4 million in Q1 2025. The improvement was primarily due to a significant improvement in the Net Working Capital.
In Q1 the Svane brand introduced new products in our popular Notes series in the form of a new bronze veneer color. Within the same series we now offer fully veneered bodies and 75 cm wide doors, spiced up with a very beautiful, design-protected, new handle from Brandt Copenhagen designed by Norm Arkitekter.
While we are encouraged by the positive performance in Q1 order intake remains volatile and we closely monitor the potential negative impact of the ongoing geopolitical turmoil on consumer confidence and demand. Based on this we maintain our current guidance for 2026 and thus TCM Group expects full year revenue in the range of DKK 1,400-1,500 million and an adjusted EBITA of between DKK 120 and DKK 140 million.

Business and financial review
(All figures in brackets refer to the corresponding period in 2025.)
Commercial and market development
Revenue in Q1 was DKK 362.4 million, compared to DKK 308.1 million in Q1 2025, representing an increase of 17.6%, and with an organic increase of 8.2%.
TCM Group’s primary market, Denmark, contributed with 79.6% of Group revenue in Q1 2026. Revenue in Denmark was up 20.0% on Q1 2025 to DKK 288.7 million, with an organic growth of 7.7%. Celebert and 2 own stores are new compared to last year.
Revenue in Norway increased by 9.3% compared to Q1 2025 to DKK 71.3 million due to slight improvement of the trading conditions following a period of very low activity in the market. Revenue in other countries was unchanged DKK 2.4 million.
Overall order intake in the quarter was above last year, driven by the B2C segment. Order intake in B2B in the quarter was below last year primarily due to fewer large project orders.
In Q1 we introduced new products in our popular Notes series in the new bronze veneer color, where we now also offer fully veneered bodies and 75 cm wide doors, spiced up with a very beautiful design-protected new handle from Brandt Copenhagen designed by Norm Arkitekter.
At the end of Q1 2026, the total number of branded stores was 111 (compared to 110 in the same period last year), with one store closure during the quarter.
Gross margin and production
The gross margin increased to 23.3% in Q1, compared to 21.1% in Q1 2025. The positive trend in gross margin is thus intact and can be traced to a combination of the internal efficiency projects we have launched and a shift in sales mix towards the more profitable B2C segment.
Towards the end of the quarter, we began to see price increases within raw materials as well as an increase in freight costs as a consequence of the rising oil prices.
Operating expenses
Operating expenses in Q1 2026 were up 26% to DKK 63.7 million (DKK 50.5 million) and represented 17.6% of revenue (16.4%). The increase in operating expenses is primarily attributable to the inclusion of Celebert and to the retail stores which we acquired during 2025 and which were not included in the first quarter of 2025.
Other income
Other income in Q1 2026 amounted to DKK 2.4 million (DKK 2.7 million), and included income from salary subsidies and reimbursements, as well as certain types of marketing subsidy.
Earnings performance
TCM Group A/S, Skautrupvej 16, 7500 Holstebro, Company reg. (CVR) no.: 37291269
TCM Group
Adjusted EBITDA in Q1 2026 was DKK 32.8 million (DKK 25.9 million), corresponding to an adjusted EBITDA margin of 9.1% (8.4%).
Adjusted EBITA rose to DKK 26.1 million, up from DKK 19.6 million in 2025, corresponding to a margin of 7.2% (6.4%) in the first quarter of 2026.
EBIT in Q1 2026 was DKK 23.0 million (DKK 17.1 million), corresponding to an EBIT margin of 6.3% (5.6%). The increase was due to the higher EBITDA. Depreciation and amortisation in Q1 2026 amounted to DKK 9.8 million (DKK 8.8 million).
Net financial items
Net financial items amounted to DKK -3.9 million, compared to DKK -3.4 million in 2025.
Net profit
Net profit in Q1 2025 increased to DKK 15.0 million (DKK 12.1 million).
Cash flow and working capital
Free cash flow
Free cash flow in Q1 2026 was DKK 48.1 million (DKK -3.7 million). Compared to Q1 2025, free cash flow in Q1 2026 was impacted by a positive development in net working capital from Q1 2025 at DKK -3.7 million to DKK -25.7 million in Q1 2026. Investments were DKK 12.6 million in Q1 2026, compared to DKK 15.3 million in Q1 2025. The investments in the quarter were primarily related to the ongoing ERP project.
Net working capital
Net working capital at the end of Q1 2026 was DKK -25.7 million (DKK -3.7 million) and the NWC ratio was -1.9% (-0.3%).
| End of Q1 | ||
|---|---|---|
| DKKm | 2026 | 2025 |
| Inventories | 104.6 | 94.3 |
| Trade and other receivables | 146.4 | 129.6 |
| Operating liabilities | (276.7) | (227.6) |
| Net working capital | (25.7) | (3.7) |
| NWC ratio | (1.9%) | (0.3%) |
The increase in inventories of DKK 10.3 million was due to the acquisition of Celebert and two retail stores, combined with an increase in factory inventories of certain components due to high demand.
Trade and other receivables increased due to higher revenue.
Operating liabilities increased by DKK 49.1 million compared to Q1 2025, primarily due to higher trade payables.
TCM Group A/S, Skautrupvej 16, 7500 Holstebro, Company reg. (CVR) no.: 37291269
TCM Group
The increase in trade payables was in part due to the timing of payments around the quarter-end and Easter and thus not of a permanent nature.
Net interest-bearing debt
Net interest-bearing debt amounted to DKK 371.2 million at the end of Q1 2026 (DKK 332.2 million). The increase was due to the Celebert acquisition at the end of 2025.
The leverage ratio, measured as net interest-bearing debt excluding tax liabilities divided by adjusted EBITDA LTM, was 2.57 at the end of Q1 2025 (2.61).
Equity – solvency ratio
Equity at the end of Q1 2026 amounted to DKK 643.3 million (DKK 592.8 million) and the solvency ratio was 45.7% (47.0%).
People
The total number of employees at the end of the quarter was 546 (compared to 515 in the same period last year), with most of the increase attributable to the acquisition of the retail stores and Celebert ApS.
Events after the reporting period
The annual general meeting was held on 9 April 2026. The annual general meeting approved the proposed dividend distribution of DKK 4,5 per share, in total DKK 46 million with no dividend distributed for TCM Group’s treasury shares.
Rodolfo Zeidler was appointed as new board member at the annual general meeting. The Board of Directors hereafter consists of four independent and two dependent board members, all elected by the annual general meeting. Following the annual general meeting the Board of Directors constituted itself with Anders Skole-Sørensen as chairman and Erika Hummel as vice-chairman.
On 30 April 2026 it was announced that TCM Group’s Chief Executive Officer, Torben Paulin, will step down from his position effective 1 August 2026. Jens-Peter Poulsen will assume the position as CEO of TCM Group on the same date. Jens-Peter Poulsen joins from his role as CEO of Abena Holding. Previously, he served for more than 10 years as CEO of the Danish kitchen manufacturer Kvik.
Besides from the above, no events of importance to the consolidated interim financial statements have occurred after the reporting period.
Financial outlook
While we are encouraged by the positive performance in Q1 order intake remains volatile and we closely monitor the potential negative impact of the ongoing geopolitical turmoil on consumer confidence and demand. Based on this we maintain our current guidance for 2026 and thus TCM Group expects full year revenue in the range of DKK 1,400-1,500 million and an adjusted EBITA of between DKK 120 and DKK 140 million.
