Outlook for 2026 31 Announced on 29 October 2026 Alma Media expects its full-year revenue and the adjusted operating profit of 2026 to grow. The full-year revenue for 2025 was MEUR 327.1 and the adjusted operating profit was MEUR 82.1. The positive business development in the first nine months of the year is expected to continue and support revenue growth for the full year. The outlook does not assume a material improvement in market conditions, and market uncertainty continues. The outlook for adjusted operating profit remains unchanged. The outlook is based on an assessment that economic conditions in the Company’s main market areas are expected to remain broadly unchanged, although positive signals have been observed. Fluctuations in the global economy may affect market development. The operating environment in Finland remained mixed, although economic indicators continued to show signs of a gradual recovery. Consumer confidence remained subdued but is expected to strengthen gradually, supporting a broader recovery in demand. The Group’s business diversification across multiple geographical markets and different business areas, together with systematic cost management, stabilises the Company’s operations even in challenging market conditions. Background for the outlook
