De' Longhi SpA
De' Longhi makes small home appliances, with a strong focus on coffee machines and espresso equipment. It also sells kitchen appliances, portable climate products, cleaning devices, and irons under brands such as De'Longhi, Kenwood, Braun and others in some markets. Its products are designed and assembled for use in homes, and some lines also serve small cafés, offices, and hospitality customers. The company earns money by selling these branded appliances through appliance retailers, online channels, and direct relationships with distributors and commercial customers. Consumers buy De' Longhi products for everyday use, while cafés and other small businesses buy higher-end coffee equipment and related machines. The company’s sales depend on product design, brand recognition, and shelf space at major retailers. What makes De' Longhi different is that it sits at the premium end of the small-appliance market, especially in coffee. Instead of being a broad industrial manufacturer, it focuses on household devices that people use every day, where design, convenience, and brand trust matter a lot. That gives it a clear role as a branded consumer goods company rather than a commodity hardware maker.

Solid start: De'Longhi said Q1 2026 was a solid start to the year, led by exceptional momentum in Professional and positive organic growth in Household, despite a volatile geopolitical backdrop.
Guidance held: Management reaffirmed full-year 2026 guidance for mid-single-digit revenue growth and adjusted EBITDA of EUR 640 million to EUR 660 million, saying the current situation is still consistent with that outlook.
Professional strength: The Professional division grew 40% to EUR 139 million, with broad-based strength across regions and brands, and management said it was the main driver of margin expansion.
Household improving: Household was slightly down reported but up at constant currency, with January held back by inventory destocking; management said February, March and April showed recovery.
Tariff headwind: The group saw about EUR 4 million of tariff impact in Q1, mainly hitting Household margins, but management said the current guidance already reflects the present tariff level if it persists.
Cash and balance sheet: Free cash flow was negative in the quarter because of seasonal inventory restocking, but trailing 12-month free cash flow reached EUR 464 million and net financial position improved to EUR 721 million.
