LapWall operates in the building products industry with several factories. The company manufactures wooden wall and ceiling elements in factory conditions for construction companies. The product range includes several standard products that are delivered and installed by the customer. The company's market area is Finland. LapWall was founded in 2011 and its headquarters are located in Pyhäntä, Finland.

LapWall’s Strategy 2025–2030: A Clear Direction and the Ability to Execute LapWall updated its strategy in 2024. The slide below summarizes the company’s strategic framework for the years 2025–2030: mission, vision, strategic goals, and key success factors.  This post is based on the strategy published by LapWall in 2024. Mission and vision: why LapWall exists and where the company is headed LapWall’s mission is “sustainable prefabricated construction for the benefit of our customers and the environment.” The mission reflects the company’s role as an industrial operator seeking long-term value for its customers, the environment, and its owners. The vision for 2030 is ambitious yet clear:  LapWall aims to be “a pioneer in prefabricated construction, the most respected player in the industry, and a preferred workplace.” The vision is not limited to market position alone but also covers the employee experience and corporate culture—factors that are central to building a sustainable competitive advantage. Strategic goals: growth on LapWall’s own standards The strategy relies on four key goals:  The most respected operator in the industry, measured by image studies, employee satisfaction, and eNPS, among others. Superior added value for customers through LapWall’s product portfolio and solutions (NPS and customer surveys). Increasing prefabricated construction according to LapWall’s standards, through growth in volume and market share. Long-term financial targets: approximately 100 million euros in revenue and a 15–20% EBITDA margin.  Crucially, growth is not based solely on chasing volume but on the company’s own operating models, productization, and industrial efficiency. Strategic success factors: bringing the strategy to everyday life LapWall’s strategy has been broken down into concrete success factors that guide daily operations:  Communication, marketing, and advocacy Sales and account management Project expertise from design to installation Product portfolio and conceptualized solutions Functional and efficient factories Efficiency in procurement and material usage  These are supported by cross-cutting capabilities: finance, systems, AI, and digitalization, all founded on a skilled, motivated, and healthy workforce. Capacity supports strategic execution The strategy is not based on assumptions but on structures. LapWall is currently implementing the largest investment in its history. Upon completion, the facilities and capacity of the production plants will be at a level that enables the achievement of the revenue targets outlined in the strategy. This is a key part of the strategy’s credibility: the growth targets are supported by capabilities that have already been built or are under construction. Summary  LapWall’s strategy for 2025–2030 is clear and measurable, and it is built to be operationally implemented during the strategy period. It combines growth, profitability, customer value, and personnel into a single entity, which the company has both the will and the prerequisites to execute. Strategy and capacity create the prerequisites; the task of management is to turn them into results.

OP has updated its analysis.  It expects 2026 revenue of €58m (31.4% growth) and EBITA excluding non-recurring items of €8m (13.4%). It expects the company to guide for significant revenue growth and a double-digit EBITA margin for 2026. Strong growth is based on new customer accounts gained through new capacity and winning market share. Recommendation Buy and €5.1, whereas previously €4.4 and Accumulate. Inderes currently forecasts more moderately for 2026: revenue €51.4m (18% growth) and adj. EBIT €5.1m (9.9%).

A friend has been asking for quotes on elements for a wooden house. The first quote he received sounded outrageously expensive. It’s a shame he isn’t getting a quote from Kastelli. As a shareholder, I would be interested to know if it’s a competitive channel.

Thanks for this overview and Merry Christmas, Jarmo Pekkarinen. I really appreciate that the company’s CEO participates in this thread and keeps us updated.

LapWall – A look at 2025 and future prospects The year 2025 has been a year of determined development for LapWall, during which we have strengthened the company’s operational foundation and capabilities for future growth phases. A key step is Factory 3, which is nearing completion in Pyhäntä, strengthening our capacity and expanding our product and solution offering. This investment improves our delivery capability, competitiveness, and our ability to respond to increasingly demanding projects, supporting the company’s prerequisites for profitable growth. Our roof element business is in a strong market position. The conceptualized operating model of the Pälkäne and Veteli factories and an annual capacity of over 400,000 m² enable reliable deliveries even in large and time-sensitive projects. During the year, we also made a breakthrough into a new segment by delivering a roof solution for the Kajaani data center project. This demonstrates the suitability of our solutions for technically and qualitatively very demanding sites. Our operations are based on a clear and controlled whole: standardized product and delivery content, a conceptualized process from quotation to installation, high and verified quality, and a competitive cost structure. Responsibility is an integral part of our operations. The environmental impacts of our products have been verified with third-party verified RTS EPD environmental declarations, and development work towards lower-emission solutions continues. I want to thank our customers, partners, and LapWall personnel for their committed and professional work during 2025. Thanks also to everyone following the company’s development and to the owners for their factual and constructive discussion. The company’s operational foundation has strengthened, and we are moving into 2026 from a strong starting point. If owners or those interested in the company wish to get acquainted with LapWall’s operations and production on site, a factory visit is possible by arrangement. More information: Factories

I wrote an article on LinkedIn about what low-carbon hybrid construction means in practice and how LapWall’s role is defined in these projects. LapWall’s delivery role in hybrid projects is clear:   facade elements   warm roof elements (also available with a vapor-tight polyester-coated steel soffit)   cold roof elements / roof element system Link to the article:                  linkedin.com              Mitä vähähiilinen hybridirakentaminen tarkoittaa LapWallilla? | Jarmo Pekkarinen    Mitä vähähiilinen hybridirakentaminen tarkoittaa käytännössä?  Meille LapWallissa hybridi ei ole iskusana, vaan tapa tehdä hankkeista nopeampia, varmempia ja pienemmällä hiilijalanjäljellä.  Hybridirakentamisen ydin on yksinkertainen: oikea...

In our view, LapWall's Q1 report can be interpreted as a slight defensive win given the challenging overall picture for the construction sector. We have not made any material changes to our near-term outlook for LapWall, but the strong start to the year and the guidance provided have lowered the risk level of the stock.
