Online travel provider lastminute.com reported a loss of €0.5 million in the first half of 2026, down from a profit of €7.8 million a year earlier. Revenue rose 4% to €189.7 million, while adjusted EBITDA fell 2% to €28.4 million. The company attributes the weaker performance mainly to the Iran war, which led to shorter booking lead times and a weaker market environment, particularly in the second quarter. Lastminute.com has lowered its full-year targets to now expect mid-single-digit revenue growth and adjusted EBITDA growth in the mid-single-digit to around 10% range; a reorganisation focused on AI and job cuts is to be completed by the end of 2026. » Altro su finanzen.net
