The financial guidance (ref. Company Announcement no. 09-2026) is maintained.
FLSmidth CEO, Toni Laaksonen, comments: "The first quarter of 2026 developed largely as anticipated. Stable market conditions supported very strong order intake growth in our Service and PC&V businesses, while Products markets remained subdued during the quarter. We are, however, encouraged by early signs of potential momentum in selected commodities. While revenue was lower year-on-year, performance was broadly in line with expectations, and the strong order intake in Service and PC&V supports our growth ambitions for the full year."
