As outlined earlier this year, 2025 is a transitional year for DFDS, focused on laying the foundation for improved financial performance following the challenges of 2024.
To accelerate this transition, DFDS announced a Cost Reduction Programme targeting DKK 300m of savings in 2026.
The programme will deliver approximately DKK 300m in cost reductions in 2026, primarily through a reduction of around 400 office-based positions and additional efficiency measures across the organisation.
Implementation is expected to be completed by the end of Q1 2026, with a one-off cost of around DKK 100m — mainly related to redundancies — to be recognised in Q4 2025.
