[Fluidra](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/0003kw1/fluidra) reported first nine months of 2026 sales of €1,780 million, up 4% at constant FX, with adjusted EBITDA of €428 million and a 24.1% margin. The Spanish pool and wellness equipment maker said resilient aftermarket demand more than offset weakness in new construction, according to [Business Wire](https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20261029707021/en/).

## Fluidra's Regional Sales and Margin Gains

Fluidra, listed on the Madrid exchange, makes equipment and connected solutions for the pool and wellness sector. Sales rose 4.2% in Europe, 3.5% in North America and 1.5% in the Rest of the World on a constant FX and perimeter basis, the company said.

Adjusted EBITDA rose 6% at constant FX, and the 24.1% margin compared with 23.9% in the prior-year period. Fluidra credited cost control, additional pricing actions and €23 million of savings from its efficiency plan with offsetting higher inflation, increased tariffs and mix effects.

Adjusted net profit reached €221 million, up 6% at constant FX, and adjusted EPS rose to €1.15 per share. Net debt stood at €1,145 million, with a leverage ratio of 2.2x net debt to EBITDA, broadly stable year on year after the completion of a €40 million share buyback program, the formalizing of the Tangiers lease and some FX impact.

Eloi Planes, Fluidra's Executive Chairman, said: "We delivered a strong and consistent performance in the first nine months of the year despite a soft and volatile macro environment." He added that the company "continued to gain market share, supported by the resilience of the aftermarket and the strong execution of our teams."

## Fluidra's Footprint and Digital Platform

According to akta.pro [company records](https://akta.pro/company-data), Fluidra operates in more than 47 countries through subsidiaries and a distributor network, with more than 128 sales branches and 36 factories globally as part of its manufacturing footprint optimization plan. The company was founded in 1969 and is headquartered in Sant Cugat del Vallès, Spain.

Fluidra is also advancing its digital strategy with Infinity, an intelligent pool operating system that connects products, data and services for pool professionals and homeowners. The platform will support innovations launching across 2026 and 2027, serving both new-build and aftermarket markets.

## Fluidra's Earlier 2026 Moves

In May 2026, Fluidra acquired the Datapool digital-twin platform from Ecotropy, adding real-time IoT analytics and operational automation for commercial aquatic facilities, according to akta.pro company records. The same records show Fluidra signed a strategic alliance with European Aquatics that month covering a refurbishment program for more than 24,000 obsolete European public pools and a Learn to Swim program deploying mobile pools across more than 50 European regions.

In August 2026, Eleconomista reported that Fluidra was reorganizing its industrial footprint, closing factories in China, France and Oregon while opening a new plant in Morocco to reduce costs and increase supply chain flexibility.

## Fluidra's Narrowed 2026 Guidance

Fluidra narrowed its full-year 2026 guidance, expecting sales growth at constant FX of between 3.5% and 5.5%. The company now expects an adjusted EBITDA margin of between 23.3% and 23.5% and adjusted EPS growth of between 5% and 9%.
