Soltech Energy Solutions is active in the development, construction and optimization of large-scale and advanced energy systems for property owners, industry and energy companies. The company’s service offering includes total solutions in large-scale energy storage, system integration, smart control, large-scale solar energy solutions and, not least, operation and maintenance.

From design to installation, commissioning and subsequent management of the installations, Soltech Energy Solutions is a partner to corporations, industries and energy companies that need to refine and optimize their energy solutions in line with the changing energy landscape.

In order to broaden the customer base and increase its marketing efforts, the establishment in Finland will be a natural step. The Finnish energy market, just like the Swedish one, is undergoing a rapid transition where increased volumes from solar and wind power make the electricity system more weather independent. To harmonize the balance between electricity production and consumption, solutions are required that can quickly contribute flexibility, frequency regulation and that can balance its variations. Battery parks therefore play a central role to stabilize the frequency of the electricity grid, relieving the burden during power peaks and enabling a more efficient integration of renewable energy sources into the energy mix.

“This deal strengthens our position as a partner in large-scale BESS projects in the Nordic region and represents an important step into a new geographic market. Finland faces the same structural challenges as Sweden, with an electricity system that needs more flexibility and stability through optimized energy resources. This initial project shows that we are a competitive company that can contribute to the important battery development in the country in the future,” says Christoffer Caesar, CEO of Soltech Energy Solutions.

E-Mobility, based in Borlänge, works with charging infrastructure and electrical technology and delivers the design, installation and commissioning of smart charging solutions for both passenger cars and heavy traffic.

The installation has been carried out for Maserfrakt, which is one of Sweden’s largest machine and transport brokerage companies with operations in transport, logistics and construction in several regions of the country. Sustainability in the business, of which electrification is a significant part, is important both for the industry and for Maserfrakt.

“It is great to be entrusted with the design and installation for this projekct that will be Dalarna’s largest charging station for electric trucks. Through the project, we are helping Maserfrakt make a real contribution to the expansion of charging infrastructure for electric trucks in the county,” says Martin Götesson, CEO of E-Mobility.

Important for the transport sector’s transition
Domestic transport accounts for almost a third of Sweden’s total greenhouse gas emissions and is dominated by emissions from road traffic. Large-scale fast charging stations are therefore important to accelerate the transition of the transport sector. They enable the transition to electric transport and at the same time increase the competitiveness of the locations where they are established. For Maserfrakt, this investment is an important part of enabling its 250 partners to invest in electrified transportation.

“In this way, we take responsibility and enable more charging infrastructure in Dalarna. It is an important step in creating the conditions for our partners to invest in more sustainable transport, and now the conditions are in place. The project is also important for TRB, where we are one of ten part-owner companies that jointly run this type of investment,” says Per Bondemark, CEO of Maserfrakt.

The façade company Essa Glas & Aluminium has been part of Soltech since 2022. The company carries out large-scale projects in exterior and interior glass facade solutions, solar facades and roof-mounted solar systems for commercial properties. The business is run from the production facility in Örebro, but the company carries out projects in several of Sweden’s metropolitan regions.

Signalhuset is now undergoing extensive renovation and added extensions. Essa Glas’s assignment is to install several technically advanced façade solutions where prefabricated box facades in wooden frames, cladded with glass, sheet metal and concrete elements, are mounted on the gables and sides of the building. The façade elements are tailored and manufactured in the company’s own workshop in Örebro with very high precision and specially developed technology.

“This is a project with high demands on precision, coordination and material knowledge. We have developed a unique façade solution for Signalhuset where prefabrication and careful production are crucial for both quality and efficient installation. Being part of the development of this property feels very inspiring and we thank Skanska for the confidence shown in us,” says Malin Brunzell, Design Engineer at Essa Glas.

Cassette facades and fiberglass reinforced concrete
The assignment also includes the replacement of existing glass sections on the ground floor and the installation of a high central glass section for light entry into the property’s entrance and atrium. In the upper parts of the building, cassette facades will be installed, and the existing concrete frame will be fitted with new thin GRC elements with textured and relief-embossed surfaces. The company will also build curtain wall sections that will be clad with GRC (fiberglass reinforced concrete), which contributes to the building’s architectural expression and sustainability.

“In the transformation of Signalhuset, the façade is an important part of the building’s new expression. Essa Glas contributes with technically advanced and well-thought-out solutions that meet the project’s high demands on both function and design,” says Stefan Hedenström, Production Manager at Skanska.

In the project, Soltech has been engaged as an expert partner in the final phase of the projects to ensure a correct, efficient and safe installation. The assignment includes technical verification, system integration and final commissioning, where Soltech’s specialist expertise in large-scale solar park projects has been crucial for the plant to be put into commercial operation according to plan.

Hultsfred Solar Park covers an area of approximately 140 hectares, which corresponds to about almost 200 full-size football fields*. The solar park, which now is put into operation and consists of 128.912 panels, will constitute a significant addition of renewable electricity production to the electricity grid and also contribute to increased local biodiversity.

“Being asked to carry out this assignment confirms that a high level of mutual trust and being able to support the commission of one of Sweden’s largest solar parks is an acknowledgement of the strength of our way of working. Through our collaboration with Nordic Solar, we create value across the entire life cycle as we revolutionize the energy landscape together,” says Erik Uddman, Head of Asset Management at Soltech Energy Solutions.

The project is carried out for Nordic Solar, which means that Soltech Energy Solutions continue to gain confidence in their major energy projects. Previously, Soltech has been entrusted with the construction of a battery park totaling 18 MWh for the energy company. The commissioning also strengthen Soltech’s position as a leading industry player in advanced and large-scale energy solutions.

“Now we are making a concrete contribution to Sweden’s energy transition, and as a proud resident of Hultsfred, it feels extra great to be a part of the commission and manage this solar park going forward,” concludes Erik Uddman.

Determination of number of board members, election of two new board members, and remuneration to newly elected board members

The meeting resolved, in accordance with the nomination committee’s proposal, for the period until the end of the next annual general meeting, that the board of directors shall consist of six members. Furthermore, the meeting resolved to elect Petteri Saarinen and Joachim Zetterlund as new board of directors and that Ivana Stankovic and Bernt Ingman resign from their duties on the board. It was also resolved that Petteri Saarinen be appointed chair of the board. It is noted that Stefan Ölander, Ove Anebygd, Jacob Langhard-Rosencrantz and Thomas Mejdell will remain as directors of the board.

The meeting also resolved that a yearly remuneration of SEK 300,000 for the directors of the board and SEK 600,000 to the chairman, together with remuneration for any committee work in accordance with the decision of the most recent annual general meeting, shall be paid to each of the newly elected members of the board of directors, and that such remuneration to these members for the period from the time upon which their election takes effect until the end of the next annual general meeting shall be paid in proportion to the length of their respective terms of office.

As stated in the notice, the resolution entails that the 18‑month lock‑up undertaking provided by Stefan Ölander to Nordic Capital in connection with the divestment of Sesol and the completion of the rights issue, as communicated on 4 July 2025, is now terminated.

For detailed information regarding the resolutions, including information on the new board members, please refer to the notice available on the Company’s website, www.soltechenergy.com.

Background
After the acquisition of Sesol was completed in 2025, an action plan was developed with a focus on reversing the negative economic development, taking advantage of synergy effects and identifying long-term sustainable opportunities for the company’s operations in the consumer market. In light of the company’s financial situation and continued challenging market conditions, it was decided in January 2026 to apply for company reconstruction. Attorney Niklas Emthén, Lindskog Malmström Advokatbyrå AB, was appointed as administrator.

Within the framework of the reconstruction, previously communicated measures have been implemented. This includes extensive cost adjustments, organisational changes and renegotiation of collaborations and agreements.

However, at the beginning of 2026, the market situation in the consumer market for solar energy has weakened further as a result of external events that have rapidly affected households’ willingness to invest. The subdued demand has limited the opportunities for Sesol to recover within the framework of the reconstruction. Another influencing factor is suppliers’ commitments that have not been complied with based on the reconstruction procedure, which has negatively affected the possibilities of driving sales forward, ensuring the availability of materials and thus deliveries to meet customer commitments.

Despite implemented efforts, measures and previous financial support from Soltech Energy, Sesol’s Board of Directors makes the overall assessment, in consultation with the administrator, that the reconstruction cannot be carried out to the extent required to bring about a long-term sustainable business.

Bankruptcy trustee now takes over
With a bankruptcy decision, Sesol’s assets are transferred to a bankruptcy estate and a bankruptcy trustee takes over control and responsibility for the operations in accordance with applicable legislation and customary processes, provided that Jönköping District Court approves the proposal for a bankruptcy trustee. The bankruptcy trustee will now handle the continued process. The staff of Sesol will be covered by the state salary guarantee decided by the bankruptcy trustee.

“This is very sad, especially for the employees at Sesol, the company’s customers but also for the Group as a whole. The Board of Directors of Sesol is now handing over the continued process to the bankruptcy trustee, who will manage the business further in accordance with current regulations. We would like to extend our gratefulness to everyone who worked tirelessly in Sesol during the reconstruction,” says Patrik Hahne, CEO, Soltech Energy.

Following today’s decision, the Soltech Group’s operations no longer include any sole consumer-oriented companies, the customer base now primarily consists of corporate customers, within in roofing, façade, electricity, large-scale solar energy, as well as charging infrastructure and energy storage. Within these business areas, Soltech believes that there are good opportunities to create a long-term sustainable and profitable Group.

Annelunds Tak offers complete solutions in roofing contracting, including sedum. Since its entry into the Soltech Group, the company has also developed into a full-range company where solar energy solutions, electric car charging and energy storage are also included in the company’s offering.

The company has extensive experience in roofing for logistics properties and other types of roofing contracts on low-pitched roofs. High quality materials included in the offer and skilled installers are crucial for both reliability and sustainability. Annelunds Tak has signed an agreement with Skeppsviken Bygg i Skövde to contribute to the new production of the extension part of Jula’s distribution center in Skara. The roofing that the company will carry out corresponds to an area of just over six full-size football pitches*.

Jula’s distribution center currently amounts to approximately 180,000 square meters and will grow to just over 220,000 square meters with this expansion.

“It feels fantastic and we are honored to be responsible for the roofing of the new production of Jula’s major logistics expansion. This is a project that really shows the strength of our offering and our capacity and we thank Skeppsviken Bygg i Skövde for the trust. We look forward to contribute in the project with our expertise and to deliver a high-quality project,” says Mikael Markusson, CEO of Annelunds Tak.

The project will start in April and Jula expects the warehouse expansion to be put into operation during 2026.

COMMENTS FROM THE CEO

In 2025, we have taken major strategic steps and implemented extensive measures with the aim to strengthen Soltech’s position in order to continue adapting the business to the current market situation. Our main focus is to build a profitable and long-term resilient group. At the same time, the year has been characterized by a difficult market situation.

A number of non-recurring effects have had a significant impact on the quarter, primarily in the form of write-downs within the framework of the strategic review and restructuring in our business area solar for consumers. At the same time, we see that our business areas roofing, electricity and façade in general are showing a more stable and positive development.

Completed rights issue and a new major shareholder
The completed and fully guaranteed rights issue of approximately SEK 329 million was one of the year’s most important strategic measures to strengthen the Group financially. In connection with the issue, Nordic Capital became our largest shareholder. Their industrial expertise and long-term perspective give Soltech better conditions going forward. The issue also enables an acceleration of our work with profitability measures and the development of existing business areas.

Continued work on profitability-driving measures
During the year, as previously mentioned, we implemented a number of profitability-driving initiatives within the Group, organizational changes as well as cost reductions. These measures will strengthen our resilience and improve our position even in a challenging market environment. We have a clear focus on what we can influence, and this is a work that we will pursue in a structured way at all levels and in all operations in the Group with continued discipline.

Stable core operations create security
During the year, our core roof, façade and electrical technology businesses contributed stability and constituted important building blocks in the Group. With broad and deep expertise and continuous adaptation to the market situation, these businesses have continued to create stability and, not least, value for their customers, which consist of commercial property owners, the public sector and industries.

Strategic review of the consumer market in solar energy
During the autumn and fourth quarter, we have been working on a strategic review of the Group’s solar energy business specifically in the consumer market. Due to a continued weak consumer market, decisions have been made on a number of strategic measures in our companies that have only been aimed at the consumer market. These measures meant that Sesol in Norway and Soldags in Sweden were declared bankrupt as they were not considered viable. Sesol in Sweden went into reconstruction at the same time, and our previous company 365zon in the Netherlands was sold back to the founders.

The reconstruction of Sesol in Sweden is proceeding after intensive preliminary work. So far, the reorganization shows that the business has the potential to continue to operate after restructuring with an adapted organization and cost structure, as well as new processes that create an even more focused and clear platform.

Scale and complete solutions
Despite the challenging market, we are seeing positive signals. We are seeing a recovery in demand in our various business areas for major installations and contracts, which contributes to security in a turbulent time. Improved interest rates also create better conditions for faster investment decisions in the construction sector and industry, which is expected to have positive effects in the long term.

I would like to extend a big and warm thank you to all employees, customers and shareholders. This has been a year that has required flexibility, hard work and difficult decisions. I am proud of how we have come through an intense and challenging period together to continue to drive the business forward.

Patrik Hahne, CEO

• The Board of Directors decided to sell back the shares in the Dutch company 365zon to the minority shareholders. The business is presented as a business held for sale

Significant events after the quarter

• Soltech has decided on structural changes for the Group’s subsidiaries that operate in the consumer market in the form of reconstruction, bankruptcy and liquidation for the Sol-consumer companies in Sweden and Norway, as well as a sale of the shares in the Dutch company. This has been motivaded by a continued weak and challenging market situation in the consumer market for solar energy. This means that the fourth quarter of 2025 will be affected by non-cash non-recurring effects linked to impairment of assets and excess values in affected units. It also means that the subsidiary in the Netherlands 365zon is treated as a business held for sale

The rest of the Group in electrical engineering, façade, roofing and large-scale solar energy installations, based on current operations and ongoing initiatives, is judged to be at or on its way to profitable and cash flow positive levels, and this is where the Group’s focus is going forward. In these areas, we see a brightening ahead with profitability improvements. Margins are affected by implemented cost-cutting measures and are starting to yield positive results

*Soltech sold the shares in the Dutch company on January 29, 2026. The business is presented as a business held for sale and is not included in Net sales, EBITDA and EBITA. Comparison periods have been adjusted. For further information, see note 11. Net sales, EBITDA and EBITA in the report include businesses in consumer solar that have been declared bankrupt, liquidated and restructured after the turn of the year.

The quarterly report and other financial reports are available at: https://soltechenergy.com/en/investors/financial-reports-calendar/

Soltech acquired 53.3 percent of 365zon in April 2022 with a binding option to acquire the remaining 46.7 percent. The cost for exercising this option was set at approximately SEK 30 million. When the acquisition was completed in 2022, the consumer market in solar energy was very strong and 2023 was a record year. In 2024 and 2025, the consumer market deteriorated sharply in the Netherlands, mainly due to regulatory changes but also to a weaker macroeconomic climate. As a result, 365zon has rapidly declining profitability and Soltech believes that the company will have a long recovery time. Until then, the assessment is also that the company needs additional shareholder support. The sale of Soltech’s share in the subsidiary enables a saving of liquidity (partly the option and partly additional shareholder support) and that the management can focus on the rest of the operations within the Group, which are considered to have higher potential for positive value development for Soltech’s shareholders.

– For a couple of years, the solar energy market has been challenging, and we are now implementing a wide range of measures to turn the Soltech Group back into the black figures. We believe in 365zon in the long term, which is led by a competent local team, but we must act here and now, and then we believe that it is more important to maintain liquidity in the Group and avoid large outflows in the near future, says Patrik Hahne, CEO of Soltech Energy.

Comments on the decision on structural changes announced on 23 January

On January 23, the Board of Directors of Soltech announced that the Group is implementing several structural changes for the subsidiaries in solar energy for private individuals in Sweden and Norway as well as a review of the presence in the Netherlands. The divestment of 365zon in the Netherlands, together with other communicated structural changes in the subsidiaries in solar energy for private individuals, will now have several different effects.

A full report will be published in the year-end report that will be released on February 19, 2026. Some of the effects are described below:

The Soltech Group’s earnings will be positively impacted by the announced structural changes in the consumer market and the sale of Soltech’s share in the subsidiary 365zon. Reported earnings excluding these parts are shown as follows. The businesses addressed are expected to be unprofitable overall in the fourth quarter as well.

The table below shows Q3 figures in MSEK

In addition to this, Soltech continues to implement several activities and initiatives to reduce the cost base, including organizational changes, reduction of fixed costs and efficiency improvements. These activities and initiatives will begin to be realized in the first half of 2026. In addition to this, Soltech also conducts several initiatives to increase sales and marketing.

The sales of Soltech’s share in the subsidiary 365zon is expected to contribute to an impairment need of SEK 143 million, which will affect the result for the fourth quarter, but will at the same time reduce the option debt by approximately SEK 44 million and have a positive impact on earnings in the fourth quarter.

Soltech assesses that the remaining cash in the Group is sufficient to meet the Group’s ongoing operations and commitments to customers, suppliers and employees for the foreseeable future.
