Dresden, March 26, 2026 – Bike24 Holding AG (BIKE24) has consistently continued its strong growth in a market environment that remains challenging. In the fourth quarter, the company recorded a 35.5% increase in revenue compared to the previous year. For the full financial year, revenue grew to EUR 289.1 million, an increase of 27.7% year-over-year. At the same time, the profitability target for 2025 was exceeded: adjusted EBITDA rose to EUR 14.5 million, placing it EUR 1.0 million above the forecast range issued on October 21, 2025. This confirms the preliminary results published by BIKE24 on February 5, 2026.

Significant improvement in earnings metrics and strong operating cash flow development
Despite a challenging market environment, BIKE24 was able to significantly increase its adjusted EBITDA in 2025 by 172.7% to EUR 14.5 million. This corresponds to an adjusted EBITDA margin of 5.0% (previous year: 2.4%). The main drivers were an exceptionally strong revenue performance in the second half of the year, an improved cost structure and measures to enhance efficiency. The significant improvement in profitability is also reflected in the annual result, which rose markedly to EUR -0.6 million (previous year: EUR -13.6 million).

From operating activities, BIKE24 generated an operating cash flow of EUR 17.9 million in the financial year 2025, while free cash flow increased to EUR 16.0 million (previous year: EUR 10.5 million). The growth is primarily attributable to a substantially improved operating result.

The company’s strong business performance was also mirrored in a stronger balance sheet structure. As in the financial year 2024, the targeted improvement of inventory coverage—achieved through reducing excess stock and optimizing purchasing management—resulted in a further improvement in working capital.

Andrés Martin-Birner, co?founder and CEO of BIKE24, commented:
“Two key figures from 2025 make me particularly proud: for the first time, we are surpassing the milestone of one million active customers - a significant achievement that underscores the growing reach and relevance of our platform across Europe. At the same time, despite strong revenue growth, we improved our inventory-to-sales ratio from 27% to 22%. This is the result of disciplined purchasing management and a healthier inventory position.”

Sylvio Eichhorst, CFO of BIKE24, added:
“It is encouraging to see that BIKE24 has made substantial progress toward financial strength and independence across nearly all financial metrics. With the increase in profitability and operating cash flow, we were able to significantly improve our net leverage ratio. In addition, the extension of the existing syndicated loan provides us with the financial flexibility we need. For the finacial year 2026, we continue to pursue a growth trajectory and expect not only revenue increases but also higher operating earnings.”

Outlook for financial year 2026

For 2026, BIKE24 aims to continue its profitable growth and expects revenue in the range of EUR 318 million to EUR 332 million, corresponding to an increase of 10% to 15% compared to the previous year. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between EUR 16 million and EUR 20 million.

To finance its growth trajectory, BIKE24 exercised the extension option included in the existing syndicated loan agreement. As a result, the term of the credit facilities was extended by one additional year until April 30, 2028, with terms and conditions remaining unchanged.

With the successful implementation of strategic initiatives and continued expansion into new markets, BIKE24 considers itself well positioned to sustain profitable growth in the years ahead.
