hep global Reports Profit for Fiscal Year 2025, Sets Course for Growth in 2026

hep global GmbH, a specialist in solar project development, has concluded fiscal year 2025 with a positive consolidated result of EUR 2.9 million, a significant improvement from the previous year's loss of EUR -9.1 million. The company reported revenue of EUR 45.8 million, within its forecast range of EUR 45 to 55 million, and EBIT of EUR 10.8 million, also within the forecast range of EUR 5 to 15 million. Operating cash flow improved to EUR 8.1 million from EUR -24.8 million in 2024, underscoring stronger operational performance.

The positive results were driven by a consistent focus on the service business and a doubling of revenue from solar park project development, which reached EUR 41.9 million, up from EUR 18.8 million. Key contributions came from project development services in Germany and Poland. The company also reduced its cost base and increased operational efficiency. The change in inventories of work in progress amounted to EUR 13.5 million, reflecting development and construction services for projects in the U.S. and Germany. The balance sheet value of work in progress increased to EUR 65.7 million, indicating high value added and progress in ongoing project developments.

Since selling its investment business at the end of 2024, hep global has focused entirely on developing and operating photovoltaic projects. The company's "greenfield-first" approach emphasizes early-stage project development to unlock additional value, and it increasingly integrates battery storage systems to create new revenue streams. CEO Christian Hamann stated, "The fiscal year 2025 marks an important turning point for hep global. We have succeeded in demonstrating our operational performance and returning to profitability through consistent strategy implementation."

For fiscal year 2026, management forecasts revenue between EUR 45 and 55 million and EBIT in the range of EUR 0 to 10 million. The forecast accounts for a changed strategy in the U.S. following a strategic partnership with an external investor in May 2026. The lower EBIT expectation is attributed to the anticipated implementation of a comprehensive financing solution in the second half of the year. The company plans to expand its project pipeline in core markets—Germany, Italy, Poland, the U.S., Canada, and Japan—and gradually monetize it. With a strong project pipeline and integration of battery storage, hep global aims to capitalize on growth opportunities in international solar markets.
