From a painful loss to a huge profit: the dramatic leap that surprised the market
Despite the rise in raw material costs globally and a military operation, the company Klil presents exceptional reports with a 63% jump in revenues and an operating profit that broke last year's records.
The aluminum and window company Klil concludes the second quarter of 2026 with a sharp jump in revenues and profits. Although the quarter included the Passover holiday and was influenced by Operation "Lion's Roar", the company managed to overcome even the rising costs of aluminum globally.
The revenue line tells a large part of the story, with a dramatic growth of 63% to a sum of 132 million shekels in the second quarter alone, and a jump of 49% in the entire half-year, which brought the company 266 million shekels. But the real turnaround is happening in the operating profit line. From a loss of 3.5 million shekels last year, Klil leaped to an operating profit of 9.2 million shekels, a sum that is actually equal to the operating profit the company recorded throughout the entire year of 2025 combined.
Net profit also soared to 5.4 million shekels for the quarter and 13.2 million shekels for the half-year, data accompanied by an astronomical eight-fold jump in the EBITDA index, which reached 17.8 million shekels.
This impressive achievement is amplified by the fact that Klil dealt during this period with an increase in aluminum prices. Despite this, its gross profit margin grew significantly to 22.7%, compared to 14.7% in the corresponding quarter, mainly thanks to operational efficiency that compensated for the price increases.
Behind the dry numbers stand precise business moves, primarily the acquisition of the activity of the company Golan Tzach and its merger into Klil Golan, a step that opened a significant door for the company to the high-density construction market. In parallel, the launch of the Belgian Plus window series allowed the company to provide a designed and high-quality solution with fast delivery, which hit exactly the taste of the Israeli consumer.
Tsuri Dabus, Chairman and controlling shareholder of Klil, stated:
"We are concluding another quarter of growth. We are working to expand activity and strengthen our position in the market. In parallel, we are investing in direct contact with the consumer and in improving the sales and service experience, while maintaining operational and financial discipline and examining additional opportunities for continued growth."
Looking ahead, Klil stands on an exceptionally stable financial ground. With a solid cash reserve of 71 million shekels net and without any obligations to financial institutions, the company has all the stamina required to continue to take over the market.
This power also allowed it to distribute a dividend of 15 million shekels to its investors last April, and it is now in an ideal starting position to use the money to examine new business opportunities, and to carry out additional acquisitions and mergers that will ensure the continuation of the growth trend.
