Aurubis stock (ISIN DE0006766504) was last at EUR 158.50 on Xetra on October 5, 2026 at 5:35 p.m. CEST, up 1.89 percent for the session. The market move came as the company entered the final stage of fiscal 2025/26 with operating earnings ahead of the prior year and guidance intact.

Nine month EBT rises 31 percent

According to finanzen.net on October 2, 2026, Aurubis generated operating earnings before taxes of EUR 374 million after nine months of fiscal 2025/26. That was 31 percent above the EUR 286 million recorded in the comparable period, giving investors a clear numerical measure of the improvement before the annual report.

The third quarter contributed EUR 149 million of operating EBT, compared with EUR 57 million in the prior-year quarter, according to finanzen.net. The quarterly contribution therefore exceeded the previous-year figure by EUR 92 million, making the nine-month increase more than a one-period effect.

Guidance leaves earnings test ahead

Management retained fiscal 2025/26 operating EBT guidance of EUR 425 million to EUR 525 million, as reported by finanzen.net. With EUR 374 million already achieved after nine months, the lower end of the range requires EUR 51 million in the final quarter, while the upper end requires EUR 151 million.

The arithmetic puts the December results in a narrow analytical frame: the final quarter must add at least EUR 51 million for the company to reach its existing range. The range itself remains management guidance, not a reported result, so the key question is whether the operating strength seen in the EUR 149 million third quarter carries into the year-end period.

Stock remains below technical levels

The October 2 report also described a weaker chart position despite the earnings progress. It placed Aurubis below the EUR 172 200-day moving average and the EUR 173 50-day moving average, while the October 5 Xetra price stood at EUR 158.50, according to finanzen.net. That gap between operating performance and chart position is the central tension for the stock ahead of the annual figures.
