Singulus Technologies: Bidding for Stake Nears Decision as Rally Takes a Breather
Published on 07/08/2026 at 18:14 | Redaktion boerse-global.de
The bidding window for a controlling stake in Singulus Technologies is closing this week, injecting fresh uncertainty into a stock that has already weathered one of the most explosive rallies in German small-cap memory. Triumph Science and Technology Group, the Chinese anchor shareholder, is selling its entire holding of 1,489,997 shares — equivalent to roughly 16.75% of the company’s capital — as a single block to either a strategic investor or a purely financial buyer. The ten-day tender process, which opened under Chinese capital markets rules at the start of July, is expected to yield a decision by mid-month.
That timetable has overlapped with a sharp pullback in Singulus’s share price. After touching a 52-week high of €11.10 on 2 July 2026, the stock has retreated more than 17% to close at €9.18 on Wednesday. The decline accelerated this week, with the shares losing 3.77% in a single session and shedding 10% over the past seven days. The retreat comes as several institutional investors have chosen to lock in profits from a run that has seen the stock multiply more than sixfold since the start of the year.
Morgan Stanley became the latest to trim its exposure, reducing its stake to 4.94% and dipping below the 5% disclosure threshold. That move followed earlier disclosures by Universal-Investment-Luxembourg S.A. and FPM Funds SICAV, both of which cut their positions to 4.84% on the same day the stock hit its annual peak. Market observers describe the pattern as textbook profit-taking: after a 526.62% year-to-date gain and a 388.30% advance over the past twelve months, professional money managers are taking risk off the table.
Should investors sell immediately? Or is it worth buying Singulus?
The technical picture reinforces the caution. Singulus currently trades 203.96% above its 200-day moving average of €3.02, and the 14-day relative strength index stands at 61.8 — elevated but below the overbought threshold. The stock’s annualised volatility hovers around 92%, underscoring the wild swings that have characterised this name even by small-cap standards. From the 52-week low of €1.20, the share price has surged 698.33%.
Behind the price action, however, the operational story has fundamentally shifted. Following a difficult 2025 when revenue slumped to €48.3 million and the EBIT loss widened to €11.7 million, the first quarter of 2026 delivered a sharp reversal. Revenue climbed roughly a third to €21.8 million, EBIT swung to a positive €2.2 million, and order intake exploded from €6.4 million to €28.8 million — more than a fourfold increase. Management’s full-year guidance calls for sales of approximately €83 million and a positive EBIT in the low single-digit millions, with the solar and semiconductor segments driving the recovery.
Yet the fate of the Triumph block sale will likely dictate the next directional move. Whoever acquires the package will become the largest single shareholder and gain significant influence over strategy in the hydrogen and photovoltaics markets that Singulus is targeting. Until the outcome is known, the stock is likely to remain hostage to the 92% annualised volatility that has defined its recent history — and to the question of whether operational momentum can justify a valuation still stretched well above its long-term averages.
