Heidelberger Druck

Management has cut the profit forecast due to a lack of recovery and expects an adjusted EBITDA margin of 5.6–6.6 percent for 2026/27 with stable revenue. The traditional printing business still dominates and suffers from investment restraint and margin pressure; new business areas such as drone or storage technology have so far been unable to make up the shortfall.

After a disappointing first half, Heidelberger Druck has reduced its profit forecast for 2026/27: the adjusted EBITDA margin is now expected to be only 5.6–6.6 percent, whereas management had previously signaled a marked improvement over the prior year. The reasons cited are a weaker global economy, persistent cost pressure, a negative product mix in the Middle East and project delays in the technology division. Revenue is expected to remain stable at around €2.3 billion; the stock plunged by almost a quarter after the profit warning and is significantly down for the year. » Mere på finanzen.net
