[Earnings wrap] Digital Workforce jumps, Robit slides as OMX Helsinki 25 rises

Feb 18, 2026

Shares in automation specialist Digital Workforce Services climbed 5.2% to €2.63 shortly after the open today, following the 2025 earnings release, clearly outperforming the OMX Helsinki 25 index, which was up 1.4%. IT services provider Witted Megacorp gained 0.7% to €1.39, and investment cooperative Arvo Sijoitusosuuskunta rose 1.2%, while drilling consumables maker Robit fell 10.6%.

Digital Workforce, which provides business automation and AI agent solutions to large organizations, reported accelerating momentum in the fourth quarter. Revenue increased 21% year over year to €8.6 million, supported by the e18 Consulting acquisition and strong expert services sales. CEO Jussi Vasama said the fourth quarter resulted in “the strongest financial performance in the company’s history.”

For the full year, Digital Workforce’s revenue grew 5% to €28.7 million, while adjusted EBITDA improved to €1.3 million. The board proposes a dividend of €0.09 per share. For 2026, the company expects revenue to grow at least 15%, with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 6–12%.

Witted, which builds and scales software development teams for large enterprises, said its business stabilized toward year-end. Fourth-quarter revenue rose 6.4% to €14.4 million, and adjusted EBITA improved to €0.3 million from €0.1 million. 

For 2025, Witted’s revenue slipped 1.5% to €52.7 million, and adjusted EBITA declined to €0.8 million from €1.2 million. The board proposes a dividend of €0.02 per share. Witted expects revenue to grow and adjusted EBITA to improve in 2026.

Arvo, which invests in Finnish private companies through equity, loans, and bridge financing, posted a strong full year. Group net profit rose to €5.6 million from €2.9 million, and earnings per share increased to €6.83. The board proposes a cooperative interest payment of €5.77 per share, equal to about 60% of annual earnings.

Robit, which manufactures and sells rock-drilling consumables to mining and construction customers globally, disappointed investors despite solid mining market activity. Full-year revenue declined 12.8% to €78.8 million, and comparable EBIT fell to €1.7 million from €2.5 million. The company expects revenue and comparable EBIT in euros to improve in 2026, but CEO Mikko Kuusilehto said 2025 “did not meet expectations.”
