The DAX-listed group also ended the week with its share buyback running: a total of 334,909 shares were repurchased between September 7 and September 11, 2026.

Buyback and Peru deal

According to ad hoc news on September 21, 2026, Heidelberg Materials confirmed a binding agreement signed on September 8, 2026, to acquire a 70 percent stake in Cementos Inka in Peru. The same report says the company is also closing its cement plant in Ranville, Normandy, a move tied to weaker French construction demand and 87 jobs at the site.

The buyback adds another concrete signal. Between September 7 and September 11, 2026, Heidelberg Materials repurchased 334,909 own shares, while on September 18 alone the average purchase price stood at EUR 144.8444 for 65,000 shares on XETR.
