    HLSE:ATRAV Revenue & Expenses Breakdown as at Jul 2026
    HLSE:ATRAV Revenue & Expenses Breakdown as at Jul 2026

    TTM net margin steady at 2.4%

    • Over the trailing twelve months, Atria Oyj converted €1.86b of revenue into €44.1 million of net income, which works out to a 2.4% net profit margin compared with 2.6% in the prior year.
    • Critics highlight margin and cash flow pressure as a bearish angle, and the numbers give that view some support:
      • The 2.4% net margin is slightly below the prior 2.6%, while Q2 2026 net income of €13.2 million sits within a range that has moved between €4.1 million and €17.1 million over recent quarters.
      • The 4.49% dividend yield is reported as not well covered by free cash flows, and the business carries a high level of debt, which bears point to when they worry about how much of these earnings can actually be returned to shareholders.

    TTM EPS of €1.57 with modest growth forecasts

    • On a trailing basis, Atria Oyj earned €1.57 in EPS. Earnings are forecast to grow around 6.6% per year and revenue growth is forecast at about 2.4% per year.
    • Supporters of a more bullish view focus on the shift to profitability and steady earnings profile, and the data gives them some footing:
      • EPS over the trailing twelve months of €1.57 sits above any single quarterly EPS in the recent history, which ranges from €0.14 to €0.61, and the company became profitable over the past five years with compound earnings growth of about 40.6% per year in that period.
      • Forecast earnings growth of roughly 6.6% per year running ahead of the 2.4% revenue growth forecast suggests expectations that profitability remains supported even with only modest top line growth.

    Bulls and bears are clearly looking at the same earnings run rate and coming away with different stories. It helps to see how other investors are connecting these figures to their long term view on Atria Oyj 📊 Read the what the Community is saying about Atria Oyj..

    P/E of 10.7x and DCF fair value gap

    • Atria Oyj trades on a trailing P/E of 10.7x compared with 23.3x for peers and 16.3x for the European Food industry, and the DCF fair value of €61.26 sits well above the current share price of €16.70.
    • What stands out for investors looking at bullish arguments is how these valuation markers stack up against the fundamentals:
      • The discount to the DCF fair value cited in the data is large, while trailing twelve month net income of €44.1 million and EPS of €1.57 anchor that valuation debate in actual profitability rather than just top line size.
      • At the same time, the relatively low 2.4% net margin and the mention of high debt and weak free cash flow coverage of the 4.49% dividend show why some investors might question how quickly any valuation gap could close.
