E.ON kept its 2026 earnings targets on Wednesday, November 11, after adjusted net income rose in the first nine months. The company said in a release published through Deutsche Boerse that adjusted Group net income increased 4 percent to 2.2 billion euros in the January-to-September period, while adjusted Group EBITDA remained at 7.1 billion euros.
E.ON stock traded at 19.46 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 10:04 CET on Friday, November 13, 1.62 percent above the Xetra close of Thursday, November 12. The comparison uses the prior Xetra session because the German exchange was still open when the quote was recorded.
Networks remain the earnings anchor
Energy Networks generated adjusted EBITDA of more than 5.3 billion euros, matching the prior-year level. Investment-led growth in regulated assets across Germany and other European markets, together with faster smart-meter deployment, supported the division. The contribution was partly offset by the deconsolidation of NEW Group, the sale of the Czech gas-network business and higher spending linked to sustainable growth.
Energy Infrastructure Solutions provided a stronger growth signal. Adjusted EBITDA rose 15 percent to 460 million euros as new projects for industrial and commercial customers came on stream. Energy Retail moved in the opposite direction, with adjusted EBITDA falling to 1.3 billion euros from 1.4 billion euros a year earlier. E.ON attributed the decline mainly to the deconsolidation of NEW Group, the expiry of legacy British industrial and commercial contracts and temporary energy-efficiency costs.
Capital spending backs long-term growth
E.ON invested 5.2 billion euros in the first nine months, 2 percent more than in the same period of 2025. The company directed most of the spending toward the expansion, modernization and digitalization of energy networks. Energy Networks accounted for 4.2 billion euros, compared with 4.1 billion euros a year earlier, while Energy Infrastructure Solutions invested 580 million euros and Energy Retail invested 355 million euros.
Chief Financial Officer Nadia Jakobi said the investment program was on track and linked the spending to higher-performing networks, greater system flexibility and smarter customer solutions. E.ON also stressed the need for a reliable long-term regulatory framework as the scale of infrastructure investment increases. The company expects around 7 billion euros of network investment for the full year.
Guidance remains unchanged
For 2026, E.ON continues to forecast adjusted Group EBITDA of 9.4 billion to 9.6 billion euros and adjusted Group net income of 2.7 billion to 2.9 billion euros. Management also reaffirmed the medium-term outlook through 2030. The unchanged targets leave execution, regulation and the pace of network expansion as the central factors for the investment case.
