Singulus Rocketing Past Records While Top Shareholder Walks Away
Published on 07/04/2026 at 17:47 | Redaktion boerse-global.de
The math looks almost absurd on paper: a stock that has surged more than 637 percent since January, yet its largest investor is dumping every single share. That is the puzzle facing Singulus Technologies after the Chinese state-owned Triumph Science & Technology Group formally launched a sale of its entire 16.75 percent holding on 3 July 2026.
Triumph is offering 1,489,997 shares as a single block to one buyer. The disposal follows a ten-day bidding process mandated under Chinese capital markets rules, meaning a new major shareholder must be found by mid-July. Triumph had been the company's biggest single shareholder, a key lender and a strategic partner since 2018, making its abrupt exit all the more striking.
The timing coincides with an extraordinary run in the stock. Singulus closed Friday at €10.80, just 2.70 percent below its 52-week high of €11.10 touched only a day earlier. The shares have gained 42.48 percent in the past seven trading days alone, and a staggering 71.43 percent over the past 30 sessions. From the 52-week trough of €1.20 on 22 October 2025, the stock has climbed more than 800 percent.
Yet the rally has pushed the relative strength index to 86, deep into overbought territory, while annualised volatility over the past month stands at a vertiginous 94.33 percent. The technical picture suggests the move has become stretched even by the standards of a high-growth small cap.
Should investors sell immediately? Or is it worth buying Singulus?
Triumph is not the only institutional holder reducing exposure. The Luxembourg-based FPM Funds SICAV cut its stake to 4.84 percent as of 30 June 2026, slipping below the 5 percent threshold that triggers a disclosure obligation. The corresponding notifications under Section 40 (1) of the German Securities Trading Act were received on 2 and 3 July – two major investors paring back almost simultaneously at the peak of the share-price surge.
Behind the euphoria lies genuine operational progress. Singulus, which builds thin-film coating and surface-treatment equipment for solar, semiconductor, medical technology, packaging, glass, automotive, battery and hydrogen applications, delivered first-quarter 2026 revenue of €21.8 million. Earnings before interest and tax came in at €2.2 million, swinging into positive territory. Order intake reached €28.8 million, driven primarily by demand in solar and semiconductor segments.
Management has flagged a significant improvement in full-year revenue and expects to keep the bottom line in the black. The company also eased a major overhang earlier this year by repaying legacy bank debt and a bond, materially strengthening its balance sheet and removing a persistent source of financial strain.
Singulus at a turning point? This analysis reveals what investors need to know now.
The bidding process for the Triumph block runs until 13 July. Whoever secures the package will automatically become the new anchor shareholder, though the operational recovery and improved financing remain independent of the ownership shuffle. Until then, the market must digest the contradiction of a stock at a 52-week high whose biggest backer has decided now is the time to leave.
