Schneider Electric reported record third-quarter revenue on October 16, 2026, and raised its full-year target for the second time this year. The company cited broad demand across end markets and regions, with data centers remaining the main growth driver.

Schneider Electric's Q3 2026 revenue release shows revenue of 11.46 billion euros, up 16.9 percent organically and 17.9 percent on a reported basis from the year-earlier quarter. Energy Management revenue reached 9.615 billion euros and grew 18.8 percent organically, while Industrial Automation revenue rose 8.1 percent organically to 1.845 billion euros.

Growth Meets A Larger Execution Test

Data Center and Networks demand increased at a triple-digit rate globally, according to the company. Demand was broad across hyperscale, colocation, neo-cloud and edge customers, supporting strong momentum in prefabricated solutions, electrical distribution, protection and cooling.

Schneider Electric now targets organic adjusted EBITA growth of 18 percent to 21 percent in 2026, based on organic revenue growth of 12 percent to 14 percent and adjusted EBITA margin expansion of 100 to 120 basis points. The target implies an adjusted EBITA margin of 19.7 percent to 19.9 percent.

The planned PTC acquisition adds a separate execution issue. Schneider Electric announced the agreement on October 5, 2026, with closing anticipated by the third quarter of 2027, subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals. The company expects the transaction to deliver 250 million euros of cost synergies by the third year and approximately 800 million euros of revenue synergies.

Schneider Electric stock traded at 228.20 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 18:06 CET on Thursday, November 5, 2026, down 1.60 percent against the Xetra close of Wednesday, November 4. That was 3.11 percent below the 235.53-euro quote in the relevant November 5 report at 11:17 CET, marking the latest measurable change for investors.
