Hanover, May 12, 2026 – Delticom AG (German Securities Code (WKN) 514680, ISIN DE 0005146807, stock market symbol DEX), Europe's leading online retailer for tyres and complete wheels, reports on the business development in the first quarter of 2026 with this interim announcement.

• Gross merchandise volume (GMV) amounted to € 121 million (Q1 2025: € 128 million)
• Revenues totalled € 99 million (Q1 2025: € 105 million)
• Operating EBITDA stands at € 1.1 million (Q1 2025: € 1.6 million)
• Consolidated net income of € -1.2 million, in line with the previous year
• Full-year guidance confirmed

According to the tyre manufacturers’ association Tyres Europe (ETRMA), sales of passenger car, SUV and light commercial vehicle tyres from manufacturers to retailers in the European replacement tyre market increased by 1 % in the first three months of the current financial year. Demand for all-season tyres rose by 5 % during this period, while sales of summer tyres fell by 1 % and those of winter tyres by 14 %.

In the first quarter of 2026, Delticom AG focused its business more strongly on profitability compared with the same quarter of the previous year, not least due to the general economic conditions.

Revenues for the first three months of 2026 amount to € 99 million, compared with € 105 million in the previous year. Gross merchandise volume stands at € 121 million (Q1 2025: € 128 million). Due to weather conditions, the business was unable to benefit from an early start to the summer tyre season.

EBITDA for the first three months stands at € 1.0 million (Q1 2025: € 1.5 million). Operating EBITDA for the first quarter of 2026 amounts to € 1.1 million (Q1 2025: € 1.6 million).

Due to the deconsolidation of DeltiLog GmbH as at September 30, 2025, depreciation on right-of-use assets in accordance with IFRS 16 is lower than in the previous year. In total, depreciation for the first quarter of 2026 amounts to € 2.2 million (Q1 2025: € 2.5 million). At € -1.2 million, EBIT is almost at the previous year’s level (Q1 2025: € -1.0 million). Despite weaker revenues, the company has managed to stabilise its earnings in the first quarter of 2026. Consolidated net income stands at € -1.2 million, in line with the previous year.

The outlook for the full year 2026 forecasted at the end of March is confirmed. A range of € 480 million to € 520 million is targeted for group revenues. Depending on revenues, a range of € 19 million to € 24 million is planned for operating EBITDA.

The half-year report will be made available for download on the website www.delti.com in the “Investor Relations” section on August 13, 2026.
