Quarterly revenues for Q2 2025 were PLN 280 million, a 23% increase over the same quarter in 2024, while EBIT for the half-year rose to PLN 51 million from PLN 14 million, and EBITDA surged 86% to PLN 78 million. In Q2 alone, EBITDA grew 116% to PLN 41 million.
Key drivers of growth included increased external board sales, effective currency hedging strategies, revenue from non-core asset sales, cost write-offs, and controlled debt levels, with a financial debt to EBITDA ratio of 1.0.
The results indicate that FORTE is not only expanding sales, but also improving operational efficiency and cost management. The company's performance offers a model for resilience in a demanding furniture sector, demonstrating how strategic diversification and financial discipline can translate into profitability. Observers will watch closely to see if this growth trend is sustainable and how FORTE continues to optimise operations.
