Bilfinger stock fell 1.93 percent to EUR 55.90 on Xetra on September 24, 2026, after the industrial services group cut its 2026 outlook. The closing price stood EUR 0.55 above the 52-week low of EUR 55.35 and 56.69 percent below the 52-week high of EUR 129.30.
Guidance falls across key metrics
Bilfinger now expects 2026 revenue of EUR 5.3 billion to EUR 5.7 billion, compared with the previous range of EUR 5.4 billion to EUR 5.9 billion. The company also lowered its EBITA margin guidance to 3.2 to 3.6 percent from 5.8 to 6.2 percent, according to Financial Times on September 16, 2026.
The revised free cash flow range is EUR 180 million to EUR 220 million, down from EUR 250 million to EUR 300 million. Bilfinger linked the weaker second-half expectations partly to continuing geopolitical uncertainties and launched the Agile program with one-off costs of EUR 75 million.
Consensus gap widens sharply
The scale of the reset is clearer in the earnings comparison. AlphaValue put adjusted 2026 EBITA at a midpoint of EUR 264 million, 20 percent below post Q2 consensus of EUR 328 million. Including the restructuring charge, reported EBITA was estimated at EUR 187 million, 43 percent below consensus.
Bilfinger confirmed its 2030 targets despite the near-term reset. Those targets call for average annual revenue growth of 8 to 10 percent, including acquisitions, an EBITA margin of 8 to 9 percent and a cash conversion rate of at least 90 percent.
Stock sits near yearly low
Bilfinger had a market capitalization of EUR 2,064,932,081 on September 24, 2026. The combination of a 1.93 percent daily decline and a price only 0.99 percent above the 52-week low shows how sharply the revised margin outlook has changed the stock's trading profile.
