Allegro Group GMV rises 14% as international growth accelerates

Polish marketplace operator Allegro has published preliminary results for the second quarter of 2026. In the first six months of the year, the Group’s gross merchandise value increased by 13.7% compared with the same period in 2025. International GMV grew considerably faster, rising by 64.8%.

Allegro’s core Polish business also continued to expand. In 2025, the company recorded revenue growth of 17.4% in Poland, bringing revenue in the market to more than 3.2 billion Polish złoty. Across the Group, the reported figure reached almost 70 billion złoty.

The company has taken several steps this year to simplify its operations and improve profitability. In early 2026, Allegro announced plans to sell its businesses in Slovenia and Croatia. More recently, it expanded its logistics strategy through a partnership with Arvato, which will operate fulfillment services on Allegro’s behalf.

International GMV jumps 82% in the second quarter

Allegro released its preliminary figures ahead of a planned share-buyback programme on the Warsaw Stock Exchange.

During the second quarter, GMV in Poland increased by 12% year over year. The international segment delivered much stronger growth, with GMV rising by 82.4%. As a result, consolidated GMV across the Group increased by 14.4%.

The performance indicates that Allegro is gaining traction outside its home market, particularly in Czechia, Slovakia and Hungary.

Adjusted EBITDA increases by nearly 17%

Several of Allegro’s first-half results are already above the growth ranges included in its existing full-year guidance. These include Group GMV and International GMV.

Profitability also improved. Group adjusted EBITDA rose by 16.9% during the first half of 2026, while adjusted EBITDA in Poland increased by 14.6%. Both figures were stronger than the company had expected.

Allegro said it will revise its full-year outlook and publish updated estimates once they have been confirmed.

CEO Marcin Kuśmierz said the company is maintaining strong growth by improving its core marketplace offering, entering new market segments and increasing operational efficiency. He also highlighted Allegro’s investment in artificial intelligence and its efforts to become more focused on the needs of customers and commercial partners.

According to Kuśmierz, the Polish business benefited from the latest Smart! Week campaign, stable consumer demand and slower traffic growth among some competitors.

He added that the rapid expansion of Allegro’s international operations supports the company’s ambition to become the leading marketplace in Czechia, Slovakia and Hungary.
