Adjusted EBT
Adjusted EBITDA Total for continuing operations came in at € 1,456.5 million in the first half of 2026, 2.4% higher than the value of € 1,422.4 million seen in the first half of 2025.
In the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA Total (continuing operations) to Adjusted EBT (continuing operations), the contributing factors in the first half of 2026 were the adjusted net financial result of € -406.3 million (H1 2025: € -363.3 million), depreciation and amortization of € -63.4 million (H1 2025: € -56.0 million) and interim profits of € -24.5 million (H1 2025: € -15.4 million). The interim profits mainly relate to services provided by the internal craftsmen’s organization, which charges for its services internally at arm’s length. Any margins are eliminated from the Group perspective and represent the value added resulting from the insourcing of services.
The Adjusted EBT (continuing operations) amounted to € 962.3 million in the first half of 2026 compared to € 987.7 million in the first half of 2025.
In the first half of 2026, the non-recurring items eliminated in the Adjusted EBT came to € 17.5 million (H1 2025: € 149.5 million). The marked drop in transactions is due primarily to provisions set up in the previous year for the purchased land to build on and old stock of the QUARTERBACK Immobilien Group amounting to € 85.2 million. In addition, there were positive one-off effects of € 19.0 million in the first half of 2026 due to the reversal of provisions from legal disputes and other operating income from previous years.
