WAG Payment Solutions raises 2026 cash EBITDA guidance
WAG Payment Solutions announced on Wednesday that it has lifted its full-year 2026 adjusted cash EBITDA forecast to a range of €110 million to €115 million, up from its previous guidance of €105 million to €115 million.
For the first half, the company posted net revenue of €1.38 billion, a 10.7% increase compared with the same period last year. Adjusted EBITDA climbed 10.5% to €70.60 million, with the adjusted EBITDA margin reaching 39.3%.
Basic earnings per share fell during the first half, largely reflecting increased financing costs and adverse currency movements. Pretax profit for the period came in at €8.40 million.
Following the close of the period, WAG Payment Solutions distributed a special dividend of 1.5 pence per share, amounting to approximately €12.1 million.
Looking ahead to the full year 2026, the company anticipates low double-digit net revenue growth and projects an adjusted EBITDA margin of roughly 40%, with net leverage expected to remain below 2.0 times.
The company attributed its revenue growth to the expansion of toll services and payment solutions. The number of total active trucks rose 7% year-over-year, broadening the customer base during the integration phase.
WAG Payment Solutions noted that the growing migration and integration of customers onto its Eurowag Office platform led to increased customer engagement and service utilization.
