AkzoNobel stock is framed by its latest reported numbers, while the share price and analyst view need a separate market snapshot to anchor the move.

AkzoNobel stock (NL0013267909) is driven today by its latest reported numbers: revenue was EUR 10.67 billion in 2025, adjusted EBITDA reached EUR 1.36 billion, and the adjusted EBITDA margin was 12.8 percent.

2025 sets the baseline

Those figures came from the company's 2025 annual report and establish the level investors are comparing against as the next reporting cycle approaches. The comparison is concrete: adjusted EBITDA margin of 12.8 percent in 2025 versus 11.8 percent in 2024, while revenue slipped from EUR 10.92 billion to EUR 10.67 billion.

Margins matter most

For investors, the key question is whether pricing power and costs can keep the margin above the 12 percent mark after the 2025 improvement. The 2025 numbers show a business that still depends on execution in paints and coatings, where volume, price mix and raw-material costs move the margin more than revenue alone.

Decorative paints and performance coatings

AkzoNobel's portfolio remains centered on decorative paints and performance coatings, the two segments that translate pricing and volumes into the reported 2025 margin. The practical read-through is simple: even modest changes in mix or input costs can move adjusted EBITDA by hundreds of millions of euros.

Stock and filing line

The reference market data, including price, market capitalization and 52-week range, should be read alongside the 2025 report figures and the next disclosed update from the company calendar. That combination is what matters for the stock at this stage.
