[Earnings wrap] Posti jumps, Enento and Alexandria rise as Helsinki OMX sinks
[Earnings wrap] Posti jumps, Enento and Alexandria rise as Helsinki OMX sinks

Feb 13, 2026

The OMX Helsinki 25 index was down 2.8 percent at 5,887 points around midday, digesting nearly 20 earnings reports published today.

Among the largest earnings announcers that gained as of the afternoon, Posti rose 8.9 percent to EUR 8.98, Enento gained 3.2 percent to EUR 14.72, and Alexandria added 2.6 percent to EUR 11.70. Meanwhile, Huhtamäki slipped 0.8 percent to EUR 31.20, and Terveystalo fell 1.8 percent to EUR 9.62. 

Postal service giant Posti’s rally came despite a 4.8 percent decline in full-year net sales to EUR 1.45 billion, based on its 2025 annual report. Investors instead focused on margin progress. Fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA rose to EUR 62.1 million, lifting the margin to 15.9 percent, the highest level in a decade. Adjusted EBIT for the year came in at EUR 69.3 million. The board proposed a dividend of EUR 0.84 per share, split into two installments, underlining its ambition to deliver steadily rising payouts even as letter volumes continue to decline structurally.

Digital service provider Enento also found buyers after reporting that business volumes stabilized. Full-year net sales were broadly flat at EUR 152.7 million at comparable exchange rates, while adjusted EBIT rose 3.5 percent to EUR 41.0 million, per today’s report. Free cash flow improved to EUR 34.1 million, with cash conversion climbing above 75 percent. Management guided for 0 to 5 percent revenue growth in 2026 and higher adjusted EBITDA, signaling cautious optimism despite regulatory uncertainty in Sweden.

Lender Alexandria climbed after posting record revenue of EUR 54.7 million, up 11 percent, and assets under management of EUR 2.3 billion. Reported operating profit edged up to EUR 11.2 million, though a EUR 1.0 million regulatory fine weighed on the result. Net inflows into funds and structured products supported fee income, and the board proposed a dividend of EUR 0.70 per share, paid in two tranches.

Private healthcare provider Terveystalo delivered stronger margins but lower revenue. Full-year sales fell 4.6 percent to EUR 1.28 billion, yet adjusted EBIT rose 11.3 percent to EUR 156.3 million, with earnings per share up 29 percent to EUR 0.73. The board proposed a dividend of EUR 0.64 per share, equivalent to an 88 percent payout ratio. Management expects adjusted EBIT in 2026 to range between EUR 135 million and EUR 165 million, pointing to a gradual recovery in demand.

Huhtamäki’s update centered on capital returns and balance sheet strength despite a 4 percent decrease in net sales in 2025. The board proposed a dividend of EUR 1.14 per share, paid in two equal installments. It also sought authorization to repurchase up to 10 percent of its shares and to issue up to 10 million new shares, preserving flexibility as the global packaging market remains competitive.
