Hornbach Holding

Hornbach Austria chief Peter Eberdorfer emphasizes that the chain is opting for permanently low prices instead of discount promotions, yielding positive sales effects. Competition increasingly comes from supermarkets and online retailers, but for larger construction projects Hornbach sees the strength of its bricks-and-mortar stores in personal advice. A shortage of skilled workers forces the company to provide internal training; at the same time Hornbach plans to open a 17th location and to modernize eight stores with a mid single-digit million euro investment. Sales in Austria developed slightly positively in 2024/25 and the group achieved around €6.4 billion in 2025/26. » Więcej na kurier.at

In the first half of 2026/27 Hornbach’s sales rose six percent to €3.8 billion, and adjusted operating profit increased by just under five percent to €285.6 million. The drivers were strong sales of air conditioners as well as shading and irrigation products. Hornbach plans further expansion and is taking over six Hellweg sites; it also opened stores in Slovakia and Austria and plans another store in the Netherlands. The group confirms its full-year forecast with a slight revenue increase and adjusted operating profit at last year’s level. » Więcej na zeit.de

Hornbach Holding jumped, rising 6.49 percent, after the DIY retailer reported strong results and left its full-year forecast unchanged despite high inflation. The confirmation of the outlook was received positively, after earlier doubts due to strained consumer budgets. The rise occurred against the backdrop of an otherwise quiet German stock market, in which the DAX recorded hardly any change in closing prices. » Więcej na finanzen.net
