Bilfinger stock (ISIN DE0005201602) traded at EUR 58.50 on September 18, 2026, after falling 1.4 percent in XETRA trading. The move followed a sharper 2026 outlook and a weaker share profile across the week.
Guidance now points lower
On September 17, 2026, Bilfinger said revenue for 2026 is now expected at EUR 5.3 billion to EUR 5.7 billion, down from EUR 5.4 billion to EUR 5.9 billion, while the adjusted EBITA margin was cut to 3.2 percent to 3.6 percent from 5.8 percent to 6.2 percent.
The company also lowered free cash flow guidance to EUR 180 million to EUR 220 million from EUR 250 million to EUR 300 million, a cut that underlines how much weaker the second half has become.
Deutsche Bank stays positive
According to MarketScreener on September 18, 2026, Deutsche Bank kept a Buy view on Bilfinger and cut the price target from EUR 125 to EUR 100. That still leaves the new target 69.8 percent above the XETRA price of EUR 58.50.
For investors, the key contrast is clear: the stock has been hit by lower 2026 guidance, but the broker view still assumes the correction is overdone. On the same day, another portal said the shares were down 1.51 percent to EUR 58.70 and roughly 45.3 percent lower year to date.
