Benoît Coquart, Legrand’s Chief Executive Officer, commented:
“Our first-quarter 2026 sales delivered strong growth of +18% excluding currency effects, driven by datacenters and acquisitions. Our financial results remain very solid, demonstrating our ability to combine growth with financial and operational discipline.

We continue to execute our strategic plan methodically. In the first quarter, we completed four acquisitions in datacenters and energy transition, while continuing to roll out our product innovation and customer service initiatives. The great success of our second international employee share ownership plan demonstrates the full commitment of the Group’s teams to Legrand’s strategic roadmap.

Confident in our execution capabilities and our ability to adapt in an increasingly uncertain economic environment, we confirm our 2026 targets.

Finally, we are pleased to announce that our next Investor Day will be held in Singapore on September 29, 2026.”
