hep global Returns to Profitability in Fiscal Year 2025, Sets Sights on Growth in 2026

hep global GmbH, a solar project development specialist, has closed its fiscal year 2025 with a consolidated net profit of EUR 2.9 million, a stark improvement from the previous year’s loss of EUR 9.1 million. The company, headquartered in Güglingen, Germany, announced the results on June 30, 2026, highlighting a successful strategic realignment that has restored profitability.

Revenue for the group reached EUR 45.8 million, within the forecast range of EUR 45 to 55 million, and up from EUR 43.5 million in 2024. Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) improved to EUR 10.8 million, compared to a loss of EUR 4.8 million a year earlier, also within the guided range. Operating cash flow turned positive at EUR 8.1 million, versus a negative EUR 24.8 million in 2024, underscoring the company’s enhanced operational efficiency.

The turnaround was largely driven by a surge in project development revenue, which more than doubled to EUR 41.9 million, primarily from services in Germany and Poland. This growth reflects hep global’s focus on its core business after selling its investment portfolio at the end of 2024. The company’s ‘greenfield-first’ strategy emphasizes early-stage project development, aiming to capture more value throughout the development lifecycle. Additionally, hep global is increasingly integrating battery storage systems to create new revenue streams and make projects more attractive to investors.

CEO Christian Hamann remarked, ‘The fiscal year 2025 marks an important turning point for hep global. Following the challenges of recent years, we have succeeded in impressively demonstrating our company’s operational performance and returning to profitability.’ He added that the result was achieved through consistent strategy implementation and strong operational performance, not one-time effects.

The company’s work in progress, representing development and construction activities for solar parks in the U.S. and Germany, increased to EUR 65.7 million, up from EUR 52.2 million the previous year. This growth indicates a robust project pipeline and high activity levels. Despite the increase, cash flow improved significantly, reflecting better operational management.

For fiscal year 2026, management forecasts revenue between EUR 45 and 55 million, with EBIT ranging from EUR 0 to 10 million. The lower EBIT outlook compared to 2025 is attributed to a strategic partnership in the U.S. agreed in May 2026, which will shift some revenue recognition to the second half of the year. The company plans to continue expanding its project pipeline in core markets including Germany, Italy, Poland, the U.S., Canada, and Japan, while integrating battery storage solutions to capitalize on growth opportunities in international solar markets.
