CEO Simo Leisti:
“The second quarter of 2026 continued to reflect the challenging construction market in Finland. While activity improved in selected segments such as infrastructure, commercial construction and large data center projects, the broader market recovery has been slower than expected. Residential construction remains at a very low level, and continued bankruptcies and insolvencies have affected both our customers and our growth.
Our profitability remained strong during the quarter, and adjusted EBITDA margin was 31%. At the same time, ARR and revenue developed below our expectations. One major reason for slow growth this quarter was the decline in annual adjustment fees which was expected. We are currently transferring our Ultima and accounting services customers from annual adjustment fees to rolling monthly adjustment fees, which caused a decline of over EUR 0.5 million in the annual adjustment fees compared to Q2 in 2025. The negative impact on revenue growth was approximately -5.5%-points. Similarly, the development of the monthly revenue-based fees has been slow as the market continues to be tough.
During the first half of the year, we have experienced high churn related to insolvencies and market consolidation. To our disappointment, in June we received information of multiple bankruptcies which will result in churn in the coming quarters. The market consolidation is also an opportunity for us, although in the short term can result in declining monthly billing.
In addition to high churn, slow start to sales in the beginning of the year delayed our growth, which led to us lowering our ARR and revenue guidance for 2026 with a profit warning in early June. The profitability guidance was kept unchanged. Although disappointing, the revised guidance reflects the current market environment rather than any change in our long-term ambitions.
Despite the market, sales in the second quarter increased significantly compared to both the first quarter (+20%) and the second quarter of last year (+17%). Jesse Pärnänen joined Admicom as Chief Growth Officer in May, and we have already strengthened our commercial execution, particularly in existing customer sales. Cross-selling continued to improve, more customers adopted multiple Admicom solutions, and we also saw increasing demand from larger construction groups looking for broader technology partnerships.
During the quarter, we completed the change negotiations announced in April. Their purpose was not primarily to reduce costs, but to accelerate our strategy execution. During the change negotiations, 38 employment relationships ended. At the end of June, we were able to launch our first recruitment processes aimed at bringing new capabilities and expertise to Admicom. Artificial intelligence is bringing new opportunities for the construction industry rapidly, and we want to move faster. We are redirecting investments towards platform development, AI, customer success, and commercial product management while simplifying our organization and management structure. These changes strengthen our ability to deliver more value for customers over the coming years.
Our vision remains clear. We are building a unified software platform where products work seamlessly together, and AI becomes a natural part of our customers' daily workflows. We believe the greatest value will come from automating end-to-end processes and embedding intelligent assistance directly into the systems our customers already rely on every day.
We also continued to develop our operations during the quarter by integrating delivery and support more closely with customer success, announcing expansion of our Business Services offering, starting investments in Estonia growth operations and further developing our business acquisition pipeline, especially for potential new market entry. At the same time, we continued to build partnerships that broaden the value we can create for our customers.
One observation has become increasingly clear during this prolonged market downturn: while the market is difficult, not all companies struggle equally. Together with KIRAHub, we studied what differentiates the best-performing construction companies. The early findings highlight active and strong commercial operations, investments in project planning and digital capabilities, but also investments in great people — exactly the areas where Admicom's solutions help our customers succeed. We will share more about the study in August when we launch our findings together with Rakennusteollisuus, KIRAhub and some customers.
Although market uncertainty is likely to continue, I am increasingly confident that we are making the right long-term decisions. We have strengthened our organization, accelerated our AI strategy, and continued to invest in future growth while maintaining strong profitability. While we cannot control the timing of the market recovery, we can ensure that Admicom is ready to grow faster when it starts.”

Themes affecting growth and profitability (updated Q2)
At the beginning of 2026, Admicom saw encouraging signals of a favorable development of the market outlook for construction. However, the market recovery has been slower than expected in the first half of the year, and uncertainties about the timing of the market recovery have increased. The improvement in the market is not evenly distributed across all construction sectors, and there are still uncertainties in particular to the growth of residential construction at after the second quarter of the year.
At the end of 2025, Admicom's sales performance was mixed, and even though the highest sales result of the whole year was recorded in December, the sales in H2/2025 as a whole affected the company's growth prospects in the first half of 2026. In January and February 2026, sales also fell short of targets, and although sales for the entire first half of the year came close to planned, the low sales result at the beginning of the year is reflected especially in the development of revenue in 2026. The number of customer terminations, especially due to bankruptcies, insolvencies and market consolidation, has also remained high both at the end of 2025 and in the first half of 2026. The company is continuously taking measures to enable continuous higher performance in sales, and there are also ongoing projects to prevent voluntary redundancies.
With the new strategy, Admicom's focus on the construction industry customers is even stronger. A stronger focus may lead to an increase in customer terminations from those industries that are not at the core of Admicom's strategy. Projects are also being carried out in the product offering to eliminate possible overlaps and to enable the functional and commercial packaging of products. These can have both negative and positive growth effects. In addition, there are many opportunities to improve work productivity in the Business Services unit (formerly Accounting Services).
In 2025, Admicom started the transition to a new billing model for the Ultima ERP system and accounting services. In the new model, the previous annual adjustment fee invoicing will be introduced on a rolling basis into customers' monthly payments based on historical revenue. In 2025, almost half of Ultima's customers were transitioned into the new model, and the transition has continued during 2026.
Due to the change in the billing model, the amount of annual adjustment fees is expected to decrease significantly from the 2025 level, by an estimated EUR 0.5-0.9 million. In 2025, the amount of annual adjustment fees in Admicom's revenue and ARR was EUR 1.0 million. With the new billing model, annual adjustment fee invoicing will gradually become part of customers' monthly invoicing, but the change is expected to have a temporary negative impact on growth in 2026 due to the transition phase.
During 2025, Admicom completed a strategic investment phase, during which the organization was strengthened in many different functions. Profitability began to improve towards the end of 2025. During 2026, Admicom's goal is primarily to allocate current resources to projects and roles that are important for strategy and growth. Depending on Admicom's speed in advancing strategic projects, the need for various investments to strengthen processes and systems may arise as early as 2026. In addition, the decrease in annual adjustment fees will have a negative impact on profitability. For these reasons, Admicom does not aim for a rapid improvement in profitability during 2026.
Adjustments for adjusted EBITDA are material items outside the normal course of business related to e.g. acquisitions, restructurings or other one-off transactions.
