Columbus A/S has revised its full-year 2025 guidance downward amid continued macroeconomic headwinds and weaker-than-expected project activity in the first half. The company now expects revenue to remain flat YoY at around DKK 1.7bn, compared to the previous organic growth target of 7–9%, which had implied DKK 1,776–1,809m in 2025 revenue.

Columbus A/S has revised its full-year 2025 guidance downward amid continued macroeconomic headwinds and weaker-than-expected project activity in the first half. The company now expects revenue to remain flat YoY at around DKK 1.7bn, compared to the previous organic growth target of 7&#x2013;9%, which had implied DKK 1,776&#x2013;1,809m in 2025 revenue.
At the same time, Columbus cut its EBITDA margin guidance to 7&#x2013;9%, from the earlier 10&#x2013;12% range. This implies a mid-point EBITDA of ~DKK 136m, approximately 30% below the DKK ~197m midpoint from the previous guidance. The downgrade relates to softer-than-expected sales momentum as customers delay IT investment decisions and extend procurement cycles.
The company&#x2019;s &#x201c;New Heights&#x201d; ambitions for 2026, which aim for 10% CAGR from 2024-26 and an EBITDA margin of 15% by the end of 2026, appear more challenging following the revised outlook. While the press release does not address these long-term targets, they would now imply a 2026E revenue growth of 18% with EBITDA margin improvement of 7 percentage points (120% growth y/y). However, if delayed projects are executed in late 2025 or early 2026, the longer-term impact may be lessened.
Columbus is expected to release its Q2 2025 interim report on 21 August 2025. On 25 August 2025, Columbus management will present the Q2 2025 results and discuss the new outlook.
