Outlook for 2026  


The 2026 guidance, which had already been revised upwards as announced on 29 July, is confirmed, despite the ongoing macroeconomic and industry difficulties: 

  • Revenues up by about 5% at constant exchange rates;
  • EBITDA margin at around 16.5%;
  • Investments at about €350 million;
  • Net financial debt below €700 million.

The Brembo Group will continue to closely monitor developments in the geopolitical and macroeconomic scenario, whose volatility continues to limit market visibility, and will update its guidance accordingly.
