doValue shares rose 14% after strong results and upgraded 2026 guidance, with significant profit growth and improved revenue expectations.
(Reuters) -Shares in Italian debt collector doValue rose as much as 14% on Thursday to their highest level since September 2024 after the company upgraded its 2026 guidance and reported strong first-half results late on Wednesday.
The company's shares were up 11.4% to 2.72 euros ($3.18) at 08:33 GMT.
DoValue's first-half core profit excluding non-recurring items rose to 99.1 million euros, up 47.2% year-on-year, driven by a strong performance in Italy and continued growth in higher-margin non-NPL (non-performing loans) products.
The company now expects 2026 revenue of 800 million euros, up from a previous forecast of 480-490 million euros, and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) excluding non-recurring items of 300 million euros, above its earlier guidance of 185-195 million euros.
Analysts at Banca Akros said they expect the results to increase visibility on the company's 2025 dividend payment.

A dividend is a portion of a company's earnings distributed to shareholders, typically paid in cash or additional shares. It represents a return on investment for shareholders.
EBITDA stands for Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization. It is a measure of a company's overall financial performance and profitability.
Non-performing loans are loans on which the borrower is not making interest payments or repaying any principal. They are considered a risk for lenders.
