Enric Asunción, CEO of Wallbox, said, "In the first quarter of 2026, we continued to execute our transformation strategy with discipline, focusing on improving operational efficiency, optimizing our cost structure, and strengthening our financial position. While revenue was impacted by a softer market environment and the one-off effect of the refinancing process, we achieved a significant improvement in adjusted EBITDA, demonstrating the strength of the measures implemented."
Mr. Asunción added, "With the signing of the refinancing agreement, which has allowed us to secure additional funding and enhance our long-term financial visibility, we believe we are in a stronger position to return to growth and continue progressing toward profitability, supported by our product portfolio and the strengthening of our commercial and service capabilities."

Any such forward-looking statements represent management's estimates as of the date of this press release. Any forward-looking statement that Wallbox makes in this press release speaks only as of the date of such statement. Except as required by law, Wallbox disclaims any obligation to update or revise, or to publicly announce any update or revision to, any of the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Non-IFRS Financial Measures
Wallbox reports its financial information required in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). This release includes financial measures not based on IFRS, including Adjusted EBITDA and Gross Margin (the "Non-IFRS Measures"). See the definitions set forth below for a further explanation of these terms.
Wallbox defines "Gross Margin" as revenue less changes in inventory, raw materials and other consumables used, divided by revenue.
Wallbox defines EBITDA as loss for the period before income tax credit, financial income, financial expenses, amortization and depreciation, change in fair value of derivative warrants and foreign exchange gains/(losses). Wallbox defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA for the period further adjusted to take into account the impact of certain non-cash and other items that it does not consider in its evaluation of the Company's ongoing operating performance. These non-cash and other items include, but not are limited to: share based payment plan expenses, certain one-time expenses related to a reduction in workforce initiated in January 2023, certain non-cash expenses related to the ESPP plan launched in January 2023, any negative goodwill arising from business combinations, impairment of assets and other items outside the scope of our ordinary activities.
Management uses these Non-IFRS Measures as measurements of operating performance because they assist management in comparing the Company's operating performance on a consistent basis, as they remove the impact of items not directly resulting from the Company's core operations; for planning purposes, including the preparation of management's internal annual operating budget and financial projections; to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of the Company's strategic initiatives; and to evaluate the Company's capacity to fund capital expenditures and expand its business.
The Non-IFRS Measures may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies, because not all companies and analysts calculate these measures in the same manner. Wallbox presents the Non-IFRS Measures because management considers them to be important supplemental measures of the Company's performance, and believes they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies. Management believes that investors' understanding of the Company's performance is enhanced by including the Non-IFRS Measures as a reasonable basis for comparing its ongoing results of operations. By providing the Non-IFRS Measures, together with reconciliations to IFRS, management believes it is enhancing investors' understanding of the Company's business and its results of operations, as well as assisting investors in evaluating how well the Company is executing its strategic initiatives.
Items excluded from the Non-IFRS Measures are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. The Non-IFRS Measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative to, or a substitute for loss for the period, revenue or other financial statement data presented in the Company's consolidated financial statements as indicators of financial performance. Some of the limitations are: such measures do not reflect revenue related to fulfillment, which is necessary to the operation of Wallbox's business; such measures do not reflect the Company's expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; such measures do not reflect changes in the Company's working capital needs; such measures do not reflect the Company's share based payments, income tax benefit/(expense) or the amounts necessary to pay its taxes; although depreciation and amortization are not included in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and such measures do not reflect any costs for such replacements; and other companies may calculate such measures differently than Wallbox does, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
Due to these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to Wallbox to invest in the growth of its business and are in addition to, not a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. In addition, the Non-IFRS Measures Wallbox uses may differ from the non-IFRS financial measures used by other companies and are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with IFRS. Furthermore, not all companies or analysts may calculate similarly titled measures in the same manner. The Company compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on its IFRS results and using the Non-IFRS Measures only as supplemental measures.
Reconciliations of the forward-looking Non-IFRS Measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measures cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts and are not provided herein because of the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations and certain other items reflected in our reconciliation of historical Non-IFRS Measures, the amounts of which could be material.
