Getlink (ISIN FR0010533075) was trading at EUR 18.64 at Lang & Schwarz on October 6, 2026 at 1:00 p.m. CEST, up 0.38 percent from the EUR 18.57 prior close. The company reported mixed August shuttle traffic in a Business Wire release dated October 5, 2026, with freight growth offset by weaker passenger volumes.

Freight gains offset passenger decline

LeShuttle Freight carried 90,033 trucks in August 2026, up 5.00 percent from August 2025, according to Business Wire. Passenger vehicles moved in the opposite direction, with 318,524 vehicles transported, down 5.00 percent year over year.

The split matters because freight demand is improving while leisure-linked passenger traffic remains softer. Since January, more than 780,000 trucks had crossed the Channel on the shuttles, while passenger vehicles totaled close to 1,550,000, the same release said.

ElecLink lifts first-half earnings

Getlink's first-half 2026 revenue rose 13.00 percent to EUR 824.0 million, while EBITDA increased 12.00 percent to EUR 404.0 million and net income grew 7.00 percent to EUR 118.0 million, Lightyear summarized. The figures show how the ElecLink electricity interconnector is changing the earnings mix: first-half ElecLink revenue reached EUR 157.0 million, up 71.00 percent, while EBITDA rose 79.00 percent to EUR 93.0 million.

Management raised its 2026 EBITDA outlook to EUR 835.0 million to EUR 870.0 million in the first-half update. That range places the energy interconnector alongside the tunnel business as a central earnings driver, even as August passenger traffic signals a more uneven operating backdrop.

Stock remains below yearly high
