BusinessDay reported on October 2, 2026, that the trains will be built at Alstom's Ubunye plant in Gauteng and that the concession runs from 2026 to 2041.

Revenue growth meets margin target

These figures were reported with the July 22, 2026 results by Ideal Investisseur.

Next results arrive November 17

Alstom's investor calendar lists November 17, 2026, as the next financial event. The combination of a new long-duration contract, 5.0 percent organic growth guidance and a share price near its yearly low leaves execution and margin delivery as the central market test.
