- SP Meditec in Poland has added 1,700 m² of controlled-environment production space for new injection moulding assignments. In the USA, the Atlanta plant is increasing output, and new production machinery is scheduled for delivery.
- The integration of Idé-Pro is proceeding according to plan, and cross-selling has already begun, with new assignments for existing SP Group customers.
- The capital reduction of nominally DKK 780,000 was registered on 4 June 2026, following which the share capital amounts to nominally DKK 24,200,000, divided into 12,100,000 shares.
- At the same time, a share buy-back programme of DKK 40 million was launched, cf. Company Announcement no. 17/2026, running until and including 31 December 2026.

Outlook for 2026
The outlook for 2026 was raised on 10 July 2026, cf. Company Announcement no. 31/2026, to revenue growth of 22-28%, while the outlook for the earnings margins was maintained.
The outlook for 2026 was raised again on 19 August 2026, cf. Company Announcement no. 36/2026, in connection with the acquisition of OGM Moulding Ltd.
Revenue growth of 24-30% is now expected, corresponding to revenue of DKK 3.6-3.8 billion, with acquisitions accounting for 16-17% of the growth. An EBITDA margin of 19-21% and an EBT margin of 11-13% are still expected:
- Revenue growth of 24-30%.
- EBITDA margin of 19-21%.
- EBT margin of 11-13%.
Geopolitical unrest continues, with new political agendas continually emerging from several sides. The war in the Middle East did not affect us significantly in the first half of 2026, but we continue to experience price increases and isolated supply challenges. We expect this to continue in the second half of 2026.
CEO Lars Bering comments:
"Despite geopolitical unrest, SP Group generated higher-than-expected revenue and earnings in the second quarter of 2026, and we are proud to present the strongest half-year results in the Company's history.
The acquisition of OGM Moulding Ltd. on 19 August 2026 gives us a foothold in the UK market and at the same time strengthens our customer portfolio - offering good opportunities for closer collaboration and cross-selling. We also welcome some 190 new colleagues.
Activity levels remain high, and it is encouraging to see that many companies continue to entrust SP Group with new projects, providing a solid foundation for continued growth in the remainder of the year."
