The number of partners is now expected to rise to over 16,500 (previous forecast: 16,000). The debt ratio will remain unchanged at between 1.5 and 2.3.

The Group’s medium-term planning relating to the 2026 financial year will also be adjusted in light of the earnings contributions of the acquisitions to date and the Group’s organic growth. The Board of Directors of The Platform Group AG expects to achieve a gross merchandise volume (GMV) of EUR 1.6 billion (unchanged), sales of at least EUR 860 million (previous forecast: EUR 820 million) and an adjusted EBITDA margin of between 7.5% and 10% (previous forecast: 7% to 10%) in the 2026 financial year.
