The core business in the EMEA segment developed positively in the first nine months of the year. Segment core revenue increased by 13.2 % to € 828.4 million (9 M 2025: € 731.5 million).

In the Americas segment, the core business generated revenue growth of 14.8 % to € 250.9 million (9 M 2024: € 218.6 million).

Underlying core segment EBITDA increased by 57.2 % to € 59.0 million (9 M 2024: € 37.5 million) due to strong organic growth and the associated economies of scale, as well as an advantageous product mix.
  

The core revenue in the APAC segment increased by 13.5 % to € 78.4 million (9 M 2024: € 69.1 million).
