Rexel’s first-half sales reached nearly €10 billion, up 2.2% reported with organic same-day sales growth of 5.1% and Q2 acceleration to 6.7%, underpinning its decision to raise 2026 sales guidance to around 5%. (Reuters)
Adjusted EBITDA margin climbed 40 basis points to 6.2% in H1 2026, prompting management to set a full-year adjusted EBITDA margin target of at least 6.2% and free cash flow conversion above 65%, reflecting operational efficiencies and AI-driven productivity gains. (Reuters)
Rexel’s North American data center business grew over 80% in H1 2026 and is now projected to grow above 50% for the full year, while European energy transition solutions such as solar, HVAC, and EV charging achieved double-digit growth, showcasing strong exposure to high-growth structural trends. (Reuters)
Management warned that H2 2026 margins may not follow the usual seasonal improvement due to product-mix pressure, higher operating expenses, and reduced carryover from prior action plans, introducing downside risk to profitability. (Reuters)
H1 2026 free cash flow conversion was only 37%, well below the company’s target of over 65%, highlighting potential challenges in cash generation to fund growth and deleveraging. (Reuters)
The broader European economy remained sluggish and U.S. demand outside of data centers and industrial automation was soft in H1, which could constrain Rexel’s sales momentum in key markets for the remainder of the year. (Reuters)
