Consolidated gross profit shaped at €21.0mn from €15.7mn in 2024, increased by 34.3%, while gross profit margin expanded by approximately 386 basis points to 22.0%, underscoring the quality, profitability, and effective management of EKTER’s project portfolio as well as the use of advanced project management methods to ensure proper scheduling of projects and economies of scale through a continuous workflow and the development of strong partnerships with subcontractors and suppliers.

It is also worth noting the strong increase in operating cash flows, which during FY 2025 reached €9.7mn from negative €0.1mn in FY 2024, with the improvement being attributed to increased profitability.

 

FY 2025 can be characterized as a milestone in EKTER’s long-standing presence, as the Company within the year covered the remaining required criteria, submitted the application for the 7th grade construction license to the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport and currently awaits the relevant decision. Within the first quarter of FY 2026, EKTER refreshed its corporate identity for the first time since its establishment in 1959.

 

It is worth noting that at the end of 2025, EKTER received approval from the competent authorities of the building permit for the construction of its new headquarters in Agia Paraskevi. The new offices will cover a main area of 1.000sq.m., while the project is expected to be completed within the first quarter of 2028.

 

Putting into effect its strategy for the diversification of activity and the enhancement of recurring revenues, FY 2025 marked the beginning of operations of Summer Senses hotel in Paros under the umbrella of EKTER, following the absorption of ENERGIAKOS KOMBOS S.A., which was completed at the end of 2024. The turnover of the business unit for FY 2025 reached €4.2mn, while its contribution to EBITDA was positive by the amount of €0.9mn. The Company also awaits the ruling of the Council of State regarding the development of a 5-star ultra-luxury hotel complex in Kolymbithres, Paros, budget €53.3mn.

 

Regarding PPP projects, the joint venture EKTER – ERETBO – TENA (EKTER 33%) was designated as the successful bidder for the project involving the construction of 5 new police headquarters, budget €57.0mn. Finally,

 

Regarding the outlook for FY 2026, the USA-Israel-Iran conflict has significantly increased geopolitical risk, with a direct impact on energy and raw material prices, as well as general supply chain disruption and, consequently, inflation rates, developments which also negatively affect the prospects of the Greek economy. Overall, however, the outlook of the construction sector in Greece and of EKTER remains positive. The Company’s management is closely monitoring developments, standing ready to take actions to address potential impacts on operations, and remains cautiously optimistic as EKTER demonstrates strong operational momentum, significant increase in backlog, and expansion of its activities into complementary sectors such as hospitality, PPP projects, and real estate. Furthermore, the Company possesses the necessary expertise, organizational structure, and financial adequacy to capitalize on market opportunities and maintain a positive growth trajectory in the coming years.

 

EKTER’s CEO, Mr. Konstantinos Sipsas Bouzas stated: “EKTER is entering into a new era of growth with stability and a systematic approach. Obtaining the 7th grade construction license, the application for which was submitted to the competent authorities within FY 2025, is expected to boost the Company’s growth prospects in the coming years. Apart from that, however, FY 2025 confirmed that EKTER has already developed a strong momentum, being established among the leading construction groups in Greece. The strong financial results recorded for another consecutive year, highlight the consistency and reliability characterizing EKTER and represent a vote of confidence in the Company’s new strategy to extend operations into new sectors such as hospitality, PPP and concessions projects and real estate, so as to create a diversified business model, in line with modern construction groups.”
