Aumann

Aumann paid a total dividend of €1.11 per share at the end of August and carried out buybacks, but the stock fell back after the annual general meeting. In H1 2026 revenue fell by almost 35% to €70.6m and EBITDA dropped to €7.4m, while the EBITDA margin remained stable at 10.5%. The company is sitting on a high cash buffer of around €158m in liquid funds, but without a near-term increase in revenue and profits the sustainability of the buyback and dividend strategy remains questionable, especially as automotive demand continues to be subdued. » Więcej na finanzen.net

Aumann posted revenue of €70.6m in the first half of 2026 (−35%), with EBITDA of €7.4m and a margin of 10.5%. The e‑mobility segment remained heavily pressured (revenue −47%, incoming orders −59%), while Next Automation saw significant increases in revenue (+23%) and incoming orders (+72%). The company closed the quarter with a net cash position of €154.4m and confirmed its full‑year guidance of around €160m revenue with an EBITDA margin of 6–8%. » Więcej na de.investing.com

The announced buyback of nearly 1.3 million Aumann shares at €17.80 was heavily tendered, with an acceptance rate of only about 6.1 percent. At the annual general meeting on 28 August, management proposes a payout including a special dividend of €1.11 per share, which at current prices corresponds to roughly 8.5%. Despite high liquidity, a low price‑to‑book ratio and a strong balance sheet, there is still a lack of noticeable revenue and earnings growth, so the stock appears more like a potential value trap than a classic value investment. Technical supports lie just below €13 (uptrend line and 200‑day line), which could initially slow the decline. » Więcej na finanzen.net
