MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY
Dott’s strong momentum continued in Q1 2026. Our like-for-like revenue increased year-over-year despite some of the coldest weather conditions of the last decade in January and February and the negative impact of the Middle East conflict on demand in our markets in the region. During 2025 we streamlined our portfolio by exiting a number of unprofitable non-core markets, which contributed to further improvements in our unit economics in the first quarter of 2026, delivering strong uplifts in revenue and DMC on a per-vehicle basis.
The shared micromobility market continues to mature, with an increasingly stable regulatory environment creating a platform for growth. Shared e-scooters and e-bikes are now an embedded part of the mobility landscape in many cities and seen as essential public services, evidenced by a trend towards longer-duration licences, as we saw in our tender wins in Eindhoven (11 years) and Turin (6 years) within the quarter. We see the market continuing to consolidate around a small number of well-established operators, with Dott well positioned to capitalise on our strong reputation and existing leadership in regulated markets to win further city licences and tenders.
In Q1 we began a major refresh of our vehicle fleet in our key cities, which was substantially completed in May as planned through the deployment of approximately 45,000 new vehicles. Early performance of our new vehicles has been very pleasing, delivering an uplift in usage and vehicle unit economics and receiving strongly positive feedback from our users. Paris, our largest market, has continued to show strong growth year-over-year thanks to the new e-bikes deployed in October 2025. With the new fleet deployed, and cost reductions annualising as expected, we continue to be well positioned to drive margin expansion and stronger cash generation this year. Accordingly, we reaffirm our Adjusted EBITDA expectation for FY 2026 as €30–40 million.
Our mission is to change cities, and lives, for the better, and we thank you for your continued support in moving us closer to that goal.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
NET REVENUE
| Q12026 | Q12025 | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Net Revenue | €M | 28.4 | 30.2 |
| Avg.Fleet Available | K | 124 | 148 |
| RpAV | # | 1.10 | 1.02 |
| Rides | K | 12,302 | 13,592 |
| NRVD | € | 2.55 | 2.27 |
Revenue declined by 6% year-on-year to €28.4 million, but grew by 1% on a like-for-like basis (excluding exited markets, which contributed €2.1 million in Q1 2025) despite the unusually cold weather conditions and the impact of the conflict in the Middle East, which negatively impacted demand in the region.
On a per-vehicle basis metrics improved YoY, with NRVD increasing 12% driven by an 8% increase in RpAV and 4% in Net Revenue per Ride. The 16% reduction in Fleet Available year-over-year was largely due to the impact of the market exits.
In March we started deploying our new fleet, with approximately 10,000 vehicles rolled out in Bristol, Helsinki, Hamburg and Brussels by the end of the quarter. These vehicles are showing positive early improvements in performance, which we expect to see replicated across the remainder of our new fleet. As of May we have deployed over 90% of the total new vehicle order, with the final deployments on track to be completed in June.
DIRECT MARKET CONTRIBUTION
| Q12025 | Q22025 | Q32025 | Q42025 | FY2025 | Q12026 | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Net Revenue | €M | 30.2 | 49.3 | 54.6 | 39.2 | 173.3 | 28.4 |
| Direct Market Contribution | €M | 2.3 | 14.8 | 20.9 | 9.0 | 47.1 | 5.0 |
| DMC Margin% | % | 8% | 30% | 38% | 23% | 27% | 18% |
DMC was €5.0 million in the quarter, more than double compared to Q1 2025 and an increase of +10ppts to 18% DMC margin. The main drivers of the improvement in DMC were lower fixed operational costs and a more flexible cost base after implementing a revenue sharing model in two-thirds of our markets. As a result, we have been able to reduce fixed costs, such as warehouses and internal labour, further during the quarter. The upgrade of the vehicle fleet has also enabled us to generate efficiencies on variable costs such as spare parts.
ADJUSTED EBITDA
| Q12026 | Q12025 | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| EBIT | €M | (19.2) | (27.0) |
| Depreciation, Amortisation & Impairments | €M | 12.7 | 15.1 |
| Share Based Payments | €M | 1.2 | 0.8 |
| EBITDA | €M | (5.3) | (11.1) |
| Exceptional Items | €M | 1.3 | 2.3 |
| Adjusted EBITDA | €M | (4.0) | (8.8) |
| Adjusted EBITDA Margin% | % | -14% | -29% |
| HQ Costs | €M | 9.0 | 11.1 |
| DMC | €M | 5.0 | 2.3 |
| DMC Margin% | % | 18% | 8% |
Adjusted EBITDA improved by €4.8 million YoY as a result of the increase in DMC margin, together with the continued strong delivery of cost savings initiatives. HQ costs in the quarter were €9.0 million, a reduction of 19% from €11.1 million in Q1 2025.
Exceptional items, primarily relating to staff redundancy related costs and legal fees, also decreased to €1.3 million with restructuring having largely been completed in 2025. Taken together, this resulted in an EBITDA improvement of €5.8 million YoY (+18ppts margin).

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1: Preparation of accounts
The financial information in this trading statement is based on unaudited management accounts prepared by Dott management. The independent Group audits of the financial years ended 31 December 2024 and 31 December 2025 are ongoing and have not been completed. As a result, the figures presented herein are unaudited and may be subject to change upon finalisation of the audit processes.
Note 2: Net Revenue
The Group primarily generates revenue from the short term rentals of its e-scooters and e-bikes that customers can access via the Dott app. Pay-as-you-go fees are recognised when the customer completes a ride. Revenue is recognised net of all discounts and refunds provided to customers.
A customer can also purchase packages upfront or add cash in their wallet. The customer has the ability to access vehicles on demand throughout the package terms. As a result, revenue is recognised over the duration of the package terms. These contractual liabilities are recognised as deferred revenue when the Group receives payment from a customer before the Group provides services to customers.
Receivables from customers are recognised when a customer makes use of our service but payment was not immediately collected.
Note 3: Property, plant and equipment
In 2025 the Group entered into agreements with its strategic vehicle suppliers to purchase an additional 45,000 vehicles and batteries (“Hardware”). In Q1 2026, the Group recognised €23.7 million of Hardware additions. The useful life of the new Hardware will be depreciated over eight years due to the enhanced technology and durability of the latest vehicle and battery models.
Note 4: Loans and Borrowings
In October 2025 the Group issued €70 million of senior secured floating rate bonds within a total framework of €150 million (the “Nordic Bond”). The Nordic Bond matures in October of 2029 and carries a floating interest rate of 3-month EURIBOR plus a margin of 8%. The Nordic Bond was initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured using the effective interest method at amortised cost. The Nordic Bond is presented net of directly attributable and incremental transaction costs that will be amortized over the term of the Nordic Bond.
In March 2026 the Group agreed to terminate the Hybrid Junior Instrument with Citibank, resulting in a €1.9 million one off finance income.
