- **Segment Growth**: Europe delivered a 234% YoY EBITDA increase, driven by airport, municipal, and agricultural products. North America saw a 5% decline in legacy Shyft businesses, offset by 2% growth in legacy AB North America.
- **Synergies Accelerated**: Procurement and revenue synergies from Shyft acquisition are expected to materialize in H2 2026, exceeding initial EUR 25-30 million target with total synergies now >EUR 40 million.

**【North America CEO (Steffen Schewerda)】**
- **Order Momentum**: Airport and municipal orders surged, with walk-in van recovery driven by market share gains. Backlog increased 25% YoY in Q4, driven by 63% YoY order entry growth.
- **2026 Focus**: Convert backlog into sales via new Chicago outfitting center and expanded production. Expect Q2+ acceleration with cost savings (material, logistics) and OpEx discipline.
- **Challenges**: Softness in truck body and commercial markets, partially offset by fleet demand. Q4 2025 net sales and EBITDA slightly below prior year due to production ramp-up costs.

**【Europe & ROW CEO (Henning Schröder)】**
- **Strong Growth**: Europe delivered 25% YoY net sales growth in Q4, led by airport (tenders), municipal (compact sweepers), and agriculture (new Aebi Combicut mowers). Lärv products exceeded expectations.
- **2026 Strategy**: Expand dealer network for Lärv rollout, optimize pricing, and consolidate back office costs. Factory efficiency programs and price increases will drive margin expansion.

- **2026 Guidance**: Net sales EUR 1.95-2.15 billion, EBITDA EUR 175-195 million. Expect Q1 2026 to be slow (walk-in van orders converting in Q2+), with sequential improvement through Q4.

**【Q&A Highlights】**
- **Walk-in Van Recovery**: Driven by fleet renewal and structural demand, not just cyclical. Backlog duration ~15 months, with mixed segment performance (strong municipal/airport, soft truck body).
- **New Products**: Service body (Royal/Monroe) and Advantic truck body (Isuzu partnership) show promise, but truck body market recovery expected in 2027+. 
- **USPS Impact**: Potential shift to in-house delivery could benefit Aebi Schmidt's broad product portfolio; active discussions with e-commerce companies.
- **Synergy Realization**: EUR 15-20 million synergies realized in 2025, same amount expected in 2026. Procurement and revenue synergies kick in H2 2026, with full realization by mid-2027.
