PVA TePla stock traded at 27.51 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 11:33 CET on Monday, November 9, 0.84% above the Xetra close of Friday, November 6 at 27.28 euros. The move follows the company's quarterly update, which showed record order intake but continued pressure on nine-month profitability.
In a release published on Thursday, November 5, EQS News reported that PVA TePla lifted order intake in the first nine months of 2026 by 55% year over year to 273.4 million euros. The book-to-bill ratio reached 1.50, compared with 1.01 a year earlier, while third-quarter orders rose to 86.7 million euros from 72.8 million euros.
Metrology drives order momentum
Metrology was the main growth engine. Segment order intake increased 76% to 148.4 million euros in the first nine months and accounted for 54% of the group total. Material Solutions order intake rose 36% to 125.0 million euros, giving the group a broader order base despite uneven quarterly revenue trends.
Revenue increased 4% year over year to 181.8 million euros in the first nine months. Third-quarter revenue grew 12% to 62.7 million euros. Metrology revenue rose 29% in the nine-month period and reached 35.6 million euros in the third quarter, while Material Solutions revenue fell to 27.1 million euros from 31.4 million euros a year earlier.
Margins recover, but annual profit lags
Profitability showed a clearer quarterly recovery than the nine-month figures. Third-quarter EBITDA improved to 6.0 million euros from 3.0 million euros in the second quarter, and the EBITDA margin reached 9.6%. Gross margin rose to 30.8%, above both the previous quarter and the prior-year quarter.
For the first nine months, however, EBITDA declined to 10.4 million euros from 18.7 million euros. The company cited lower capacity utilization in Material Solutions, strategic development costs, upfront expenses and one-off effects of approximately 5 million euros in the first half. The figures leave a significant execution task for the fourth quarter.
Guidance keeps fourth-quarter focus
Management expects significantly higher fourth-quarter revenue and an improved gross margin, supported by continued demand in Metrology and higher-margin projects in Material Solutions. PVA TePla confirmed its 2026 revenue guidance of 255 million to 275 million euros and expects EBITDA at the lower end of the original 26 million to 31 million euro range. The company also anticipates a noticeable acceleration in revenue growth and profitability from 2027.
