A1 Group earnings growth
Entities: Erste Bank Polska · Hungarian state · European Union · Berlin · Erste Group Bank AG
Overview
A1 Group, the Austria‑based telecom operator, posted a strong first‑half 2026 performance. Revenue rose 4.1% to €2.795 billion, EBITDA (ex‑restructuring) increased 4.2% to €1.098 billion, and net profit climbed 15.4% to €319 million. The company highlighted solid results across its Central‑and‑Eastern‑European subsidiaries, now serving over 32 million mobile subscribers and 6.5 million fixed‑line RGUs.
Analyst Bernstein Research added CTS Eventim and TAG Immobilien to its European Mid‑Cap Top Picks, noting Eventim’s share price around €57.45 after a Q1 rebound and TAG Immobilien near €13.09, as investors watch live‑entertainment monetisation and Poland’s rental‑market growth. Meanwhile, chemicals distributor Brenntag saw a 15% six‑month share‑price rise despite a 2025 revenue decline to €16.24 billion and pressure on operating margins.
