The Platform Group AG (TPG.F), a German provider of platforms for online shopping, said on Thursday that it has revised up its revenue guidance for fiscal 2026 to reflect three acquisitions in its pharmaceutical sector and proposed acquisitions in the Optics & Hearing segment.
Bjoern Minnier, CFO of The Platform Group AG, said: "The acquisitions in pharma as well as in optics and hearing demonstrate that we are successfully expanding our niche strategy. These transactions will further strengthen our group's profitability. We also expect to remain active in both segments with further acquisitions and to scale them significantly."
The three newly acquired companies are projected to contribute over EUR 130 million in revenue for fiscal 2026, achieving an EBITDA margin within the company's target corridor.
In addition to the pharma acquisitions, the Group intends to acquire two more companies in the Optics & Hearing segment in October. The two optics companies generate single-digit million-euro revenues with an EBITDA margin of 24%.
For fiscal 2026, the company now anticipates adjusted EBITDA of EUR 70 million to EUR 80 million, compared with the earlier outlook for over EUR 64 million. Gross merchandise volume is now expected to be EUR 1.7 billion, higher than the previous guidance of EUR 1.6 billion.
The Group now projects annual revenue of at least EUR 1 billion against the prior outlook of over EUR 860 million.
