Austrian parcel demand is growing strongly: domestic parcel volumes rose 9% in the first half of 2026, while E-Commerce & Logistics revenue increased 11.5%. This gives the group a clear growth engine as online shopping expands. (Austrian Post)
The euShipments acquisition extends Austrian Post into fulfilment and cross-border e-commerce services, rather than relying only on parcel delivery. The company says the deal supports growth and adds a broader service offer for online retailers. (Austrian Post)
The completed D Express acquisition gives Austrian Post a larger Serbian parcel network alongside City Express. Combining their facilities and delivery operations could improve its market position and create operating synergies. (Austrian Post)
Letter volumes are falling as customers switch to digital communication. Mail, Branch & Services revenue fell 7.4% in the first half, and the company expects further declines in letter and direct mail. (Austrian Post)
Revenue growth has not translated into stronger profits: first-half EBIT fell 22% to €73.3 million and net profit dropped 66.7% to €22.8 million. The company cites the mail decline, telecom transition, cost pressure and fierce competition in international markets. (ORF)
New customs duties and parcel charges threaten cross-border e-commerce volumes, particularly for low-cost Asian shipments. Management expects these measures to slow parcel growth in the second half, while competition remains intense in Eastern Europe and Türkiye. (Austrian Post)
