Stabilus stock gains as 2030 targets reset lower
Published on 11/09/2026 at 17:27 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSWhat changed for Stabilus investors
- Stabilus lowered its 2030 revenue ambition to EUR 1.5 billion from EUR 2.0 billion.
- Around EUR 67 million in non-cash Americas impairments will reduce reported fiscal 2026 EBIT.
- Final fiscal 2026 results and the annual report are scheduled for December 7, 2026.
Stabilus is entering a lower-growth phase after preliminary fiscal 2026 figures met the company's revised forecast. In its November 5 corporate release, listed on the Stabilus investor-relations page, management cited weaker automotive demand in China and North America and lower investment appetite for automotive production equipment.
Lower targets reset the outlook
Stabilus now targets 2030 revenue of EUR 1.5 billion, down from its previous ambition of EUR 2.0 billion. The adjusted EBIT-margin target is 12% to 15%, compared with 15% previously.
Preliminary fiscal 2026 revenue reached EUR 1,197.6 million, while the adjusted EBIT margin was 10.4% and adjusted free cash flow EUR 96.1 million. Each measure came below the fiscal 2025 comparison, but all three met the revised forecast.
Impairment weighs on reported earnings
Around EUR 67 million in non-cash goodwill impairments tied to the Americas region are expected to reduce reported fiscal 2026 EBIT to EUR 63.7 million, from EUR 84.3 million a year earlier. The charge is excluded from adjusted EBIT and does not affect liquidity or adjusted free cash flow.
The management board plans to propose a fiscal 2026 dividend of EUR 0.22 per share, down from EUR 0.35 for fiscal 2025. The supervisory board and the annual general meeting scheduled for February 3, 2027, must still approve the distribution.
