Belysse Soft Europe and strong US in 1Q, adjusted EBITDA up

1Q26 revenue declined by 3% organically and came in 5.6% below our expectations, with the US remarkably strong and Europe still very weak. 1Q adjusted EBITDA was up y/y which is positive. Belysse does not give a precise FY26 guidance and we have left our FY26 adjusted EBITDA forecasts unchanged for now, while incorporating a slightly lower top line forecast. Valuation continues to look attractive and prompts us to reiterate our Accumulate rating and € 1.5 target price.
