WOOD Flash – Duna House: 4Q25 in line, guidance implies upside for our forecasts

In 2025, Duna House delivered record results, with Italy, Hungary and Poland all exceeding management’s initial guidance. Management expects the positive momentum to continue across its markets. The 2026E guidance implies upside for our forecasts. A year ago, the company’s long-term strategic plan targeted EBITDA from the core operations (excluding M&A) of EUR 22m by 2029E; while the current guidance suggests that this level could be reached as early as in 2026E. While Duna House continues to assess potential acquisitions, its strong liquidity enabled management to propose a dividend above the formal payout policy. Including the advance dividend paid out in December 2025 from the 2025 profit, the total distributions amount to c.HUF 3.25bn, a 74% payout from the 2025 profit, well above the stated 47% policy.
