Reflections on disciplined ambition, long-horizon investing, and compound execution.

FROM THE DESK OF MARGARET L. SORENSEN
President & Chief Executive Officer, Velantis Group
"Diversification is not dilution. It is resilience. We do not view capital discipline and bold investment as opposites—they are the same discipline, executed well."
To our shareholders, partners, employees, and communities—
2026 was the year Velantis Group demonstrated what disciplined ambition looks like at scale. We expanded revenue by 11.4% to $14.2 billion, grew free cash flow to $2.3 billion, and crossed a historic threshold in our Technology segment. More importantly, we made the long-horizon investments that will define our next decade.
The numbers speak for themselves, but I want to talk about what this performance actually represents:
Our Multi-Segment Playbook is Working
Critics often ask whether a enterprise of our breadth can stay agile. 2026 answered that directly: all four operating divisions grew revenue, expanded EBITDA margins, and sharpened their market positions.
Patience is Our Core Competitive Advantage
Our Renewables division surged 31% this year—not by chance, but because we committed to a multi-year strategy long before the broader market caught up. We did the hard work early; we are harvesting compound returns now.
Operational Execution Drives Every Win
From the landmark FDA approval of Veltivex to the seamless integration of Orbix Systems and the on-time commissioning of the Kestrel Wind project off Denmark—our teams executed with world-class precision.
Capital Allocation & Forward View
We returned $840 million to shareholders through dividends and buybacks in FY2026 while maintaining a fortress balance sheet at 1.7× net debt to EBITDA. Looking ahead to FY2027, we are issuing revenue guidance of $15.6–$16.1 billion as we establish our new Asia-Pacific regional headquarters in Singapore.
The theme of this report—Momentum—is not a boast. It is a commitment. Real momentum requires the courage to invest when others hesitate, to hold the line on quality, and to build for the long term.
We believe in that future. We are building it every day.
Sincerely,
Margaret L. Sorensen
President & Chief Executive Officer, Velantis Group
