Savaria 2026 Investor Day Unveils 5-Year Targets Alongside Preliminary Q1-2026 Results
LAVAL, Québec, April 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Savaria Corporation (“Savaria”) (TSX: SIS), one of the global leaders in the accessibility industry, is pleased to host its second Investor Day in Brampton, Ontario. Its senior leadership team will share the recent successes across its organization as well as outline general plans for the coming years. As a complement to its Investor Day, Savaria is pleased to provide insight into its 5-year financial targets.
In 2023, Savaria embarked on a formal transformation plan called Savaria One with the help of outside consultants supported by team efforts from its dedicated employees. It took a disciplined approach to unlock value across the corporation primarily within operations, procurement and sales. Savaria One helped the corporation deliver $913.5 million in revenue in 2025 with an Adjusted EBITDA margin in excess of 20%.
Continuing its momentum, Savaria will target a top-line increase of 12% per year for the next five years, derived from organic and acquisition growth. This would bring Savaria to approximately $1.6 billion in revenue at the end of 2030, while maintaining Adjusted EBITDA margins of approximately 20%. Ultimately this should increase Adjusted EBITDA per share to approximately $4.25 by 2030.
Today, Savaria is also pleased to provide preliminary financial results for Q1-2026. Savaria expects to deliver revenues of approximately $235 million compared to $220 million, representing growth of approximately 7% versus Q1-2025. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be approximately $48 million, which is approximately $7.4 million and 18% above last year, representing an Adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 20%.
After today’s Investor Day all presentations will be posted on Savaria’s website here: .
Words from the Executive Chairman and from the President & CEO
“At today’s investor event, I can say that the last three years mark a historic time for Savaria. We invested significantly in ways we had not in the past – with our people and processes. Taking the time and effort to evaluate so much of what we do and improve it is like a major home renovation. We didn’t cut corners, we really did our best work and the end result is a very solid, well-built house that will last us years. Thank you to all our employees for their participation to implement these changes,” said Marcel Bourassa, Executive Chairman, Savaria Corporation.
“Savaria One has reshaped us. We have always made high-quality products, but there were many small initiatives across virtually every department that improved our efficiencies, addressed pricing inconsistencies, improved our supply chain, fueled our R&D process and created more synergies across our 14 factories. Entering 2026, it is our 2,550 employees that continue to seek improvements and collaborate for positive change. It is this teamwork and talent that gives me the confidence to present guidance today,” said Sébastien Bourassa, President and CEO, Savaria Corporation.

Compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”)
The information appearing in this press release has been prepared in accordance with IFRS.

These measures have no standardized definitions in accordance with IFRS and are therefore regarded as non-IFRS measures.
