‘Royal BAM Group delivered a strong performance in the first half of 2026. Adjusted EBITDA increased to €240 million, up 36% compared with the first half of 2025, while the adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 6.9%. This performance reflects the strength and quality of BAM’s portfolio, with higher profitability across both divisions. Our results were driven by disciplined growth in attractive, high-demand market segments, such as the energy transition, Dutch residential and defence. We maintained our focus on long-term client relationships and recurring activities, while continuing to apply strict cost discipline. Together, these factors demonstrate our ability to create sustainable, long-term value for clients, employees and shareholders.’
