Key Points

Positve
  • Verisure PLC (FRA:6R9) reported strong Q2 2026 results with annualized recurring revenue (ARR) up 11.9% year-over-year to EUR3.62 billion, driven by portfolio growth and ARPU expansion.
  • Adjusted EBIT grew 13.9% to EUR269 million, with margin expanding 107 basis points to 26.3%, marking the 15th consecutive quarter of double-digit adjusted EBIT growth.
  • Free cash flow turned positive for the third consecutive quarter at EUR56 million, a year-on-year improvement of EUR97 million, highlighting the company's cash inflection point.
  • The company declared its first-ever interim dividend of EUR0.10 per share, signaling a new phase of progressive shareholder returns with a 35% payout ratio on H1 2026 adjusted net income.
  • Attrition remained low and stable at 7.5%, reflecting high customer engagement and portfolio resilience, while EBITDA per customer reached a record high of EUR35.71.
Negative
  • New installations grew only 0.6% year-over-year to 219,000, reflecting a cautious consumer backdrop and disciplined focus on quality intake, with no compromise on credit scoring.
  • Cost per acquisition (CPA) increased 9.8% year-over-year to EUR1,644, driven by media inflation, lower operating leverage from slightly lower install volumes, and EUR10 million in Spain rebrand investment.
  • The uncertain macroeconomic environment, particularly in Latin America and Argentina, created headwinds for new customer acquisition and delayed consumer decisions on big-ticket items.
  • Memory price inflation is expected to have an annualized impact of EUR10-15 million on hardware costs, primarily affecting central units and detectors, with potential spillover into 2027.
  • Working capital remained a cash outflow of EUR8 million in Q2, with inventory levels elevated at around seven months of supply due to deliberate stockpiling ahead of global memory demand pressures.
