mobilezone mobilezone holding ltd , Suurstoffi 22 , 6343 Rotkreuz PRESS RELEASE Ad hoc announcement pursuant to Art . 53 LR Rotkreuz , 14 August 2026 mobilezone posts encouraging first half above the prior - year level – MVNO position expanded , Apfelkiste strengthens e - commerce • Net revenue : CHF 127.2 million ( prior year : CHF 122.0 million ) • Gross profit : CHF 61.2 million ( prior year : CHF 56.2 million ) • EBITDA : CHF 19.6 million ( prior year : CHF 19.1 million ) • • Acquisition of AK Group ( " Apfelkiste " ) completed effective 1 June 2026 2026 financial guidance confirmed ( EBITDA of CHF 50-57 million ) Following the successful sale of the German business at the end of 2025 , the acquisition of AK Group Ltd ( comprising the e - commerce platform Apfelkiste.ch and the retail branding specialist MAREIN ) enabled mobilezone to position the company even more firmly as a specialist in telecommunications and mobile lifestyle products in the first half of 2026 . The acquisition is a consistent continuation of mobilezone's strategy of specifically expanding its recurring revenue , as well as its profitable e - commerce business , thereby more than offsetting the modest structural shift in the point - of - sale ( POS ) business . Since the acquisition was completed on 1 June 2026 , initial joint initiatives ( for example , Apfelkiste products sold in mobilezone shops ) have already been successfully implemented . The progress made in the integration to date confirms mobilezone's expectation of realising the announced synergies at EBITDA level in the mid - single - digit million range from 2027 onwards . The Mobile Virtual Network Operator ( MVNO ) business developed very positively : the number of active postpaid subscriptions rose from 219,900 at the end of 2025 to 243,100 as of 30 June 2026 , an increase of 10.6 % . The B2B business and the strategically important second life business also developed positively . Contract brokerage in the POS channel was noticeably below the prior - year level . Overall , mobilezone generated an adjusted EBITDA of CHF 19.6 million in the reporting period , CHF 0.5 million above the previous year's half - year record of CHF 19.1 million . The contribution of AK Group remains modest , as it was consolidated for one month only . Markus Bernhard , Executive Delegate of the Board of Directors , said : " Alongside the development of our MVNO business , the highlight of the first half of the year was the acquisition of Apfelkiste and MAREIN . The companies are an excellent complement to our existing business and enable us to offer customers the best products in telecommunications and mobile lifestyle across all channels . The successful implementation of our first joint sales initiatives gives us confidence that we will achieve the expected EBITDA synergies in the mid- single - digit millions range by 2027. " ¹Adjusted for two special effects in the first half of 2026 : the final purchase price adjustment from the sale of the German business ( CHF 1.3million ) and a one - off tax matter relating to prior periods ( CHF 0.9 million ) - see page 8 of mobilezone half - year report 2026 .
