EQT Reports Robust Growth as Assets Under Management Hit €291 Billion

CEO Per Franzén highlighted a disciplined approach to realizations, with the firm returning nearly €17 billion to fund and co-investors during the period. EQT’s pivot toward high-growth sectors remains central to this strategy; the newly launched AI Infrastructure fund reached over $9 billion in net asset value in less than three months. Financial performance remained steady, with EBITDA hitting €837 million and a consistent 60% margin, matching the previous year’s performance.

Strategic shifts are reshaping the group’s internal structure. Following the integration of Coller Capital, expected to close in the third quarter of 2026, EQT will reorganize its reporting into four segments: Private Capital, Infrastructure, Real Estate, and Secondaries & Solutions. Fundraising momentum continues, with active efforts for over 20 distinct funds. While the firm maintains an optimistic outlook, leadership noted that the current challenging macroeconomic environment requires continued focus on operational efficiency and selective deal-making.
