· Issued by Grammer AG via EQS

Summary by 6ix AI

GRAMMER AG's Executive Board cut its full-year 2026 forecast for operating EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes, adjusted for certain items) from approximately EUR 80 million to around EUR 70 million. Preliminary third-quarter 2026 operating EBIT was EUR 11.4 million, compared with EUR 14.3 million a year earlier and below the company's expectations.

Key details

  • Preliminary Group revenue for the third quarter of 2026 was EUR 473.4 million (Q3 2025: EUR 433.2 million).
  • Third-quarter operating EBIT was adjusted for negative currency effects of approximately EUR 0.6 million and exceptional effects totaling EUR 3.1 million: EUR 7.5 million in plant restructuring expenses, partly offset by a EUR 4.4 million reversal of provisions.
  • GRAMMER AG attributes the third-quarter decline mainly to the impact of the Iran conflict and U.S. and Mexican special tariffs. It says AMERICAS profitability was also hit by higher-than-anticipated launch costs for new projects after production started in July. It cites the launch costs and the Iran conflict as the reasons for the forecast cut.
  • For the first nine months of 2026, revenue was EUR 1,434.7 million (01–09 2025: EUR 1,386.9 million) and operating EBIT was EUR 53.2 million (01–09 2025: EUR 49.9 million).
  • The Executive Board continues to expect revenue of approximately EUR 1.9 billion for fiscal year 2026.

What’s still pending

  • The quarterly report for the first nine months of 2026 is scheduled for publication on October 30, 2026.

GRAMMER AG:Difference in earnings performance in the third quarter of 2026 compared to the previous year and update to the earnings forecast for full-year 2026

Ursensollen, October 14, 2026 – Based on preliminary figures, GRAMMER AG reported earnings performance in the third quarter of 2026 that was below the prior-year level and the company’s expectations. With Group revenue of EUR 473.4 million (Q3 2025: EUR 433.2 million), operating EBIT was EUR 11.4 million (Q3 2025: EUR 14.3 million). Operating EBIT was adjusted for negative currency effects of approximately EUR 0.6 million and exceptional effects totaling EUR 3.1 million. The exceptional effects comprised EUR 7.5 million in expenses related to plant restructuring measures, partially offset by the reversal of provisions amounting to EUR 4.4 million.

On a group level, the decline in the third-quarter earnings compared to last year was primarily attributable to the impact of the Iran conflict as well as U.S. and Mexican special tariffs. Additionally, profitability in the AMERICAS region was also affected by higher-than-anticipated launching costs related to new projects following start of production in July.

In the first nine months of financial year 2026, GRAMMER AG’s revenue thus totaled EUR 1,434.7 million (01–09 2025: EUR 1,386.9 million). Operating EBIT amounted to EUR 53.2 million (01–09 2025: EUR 49.9 million).

Based on the higher-than-expected launching costs associated with new projects in the AMERICAS region and the impact of the Iran conflict on the Group's business performance, the Executive Board of GRAMMER AG has revised its full-year forecast for operating EBIT from approximately EUR 80 million to around EUR 70 million. The Executive Board of GRAMMER AG continues to expect revenue of approximately EUR 1.9 billion for fiscal year 2026. 

The quarterly report for the first nine months of 2026 will be published on October 30, 2026.
