Peter de Boer
CEO & BoD Member DN AGRAR Group:
"We are a growth-oriented company and, during this first quarter, we continued to grow operationally, adapt to market conditions, and strengthen the resilience of our integrated business model.
|
The Q1 2026 results were in line with our expectations, in a context marked by elevated volatility in the agri-food market. From a financial perspective turnover recorded a slight decline, while profitability was lower compared to the same period last year, primarily due to lower milk prices. It is important to highlight that Q1 2025 represented and exceptionally strong comparison base, characterized by peak milk prices. The decline of milk prices we saw in early 2026 was anticipated and is reflected in our full-year budget. At the same time, we continued to diversify our revenue streams, with the compost production activity generating revenues of approximately RON 3 million during the quarter."
