EBIT grows faster than sales

Adjusted EBIT increased 21.00 percent to EUR 88 million in the first half of 2026, according to Yahoo Finance. The adjusted EBIT margin reached 10.30 percent, up from 9.50 percent in the prior-year period, placing profitability inside JOST's strategic corridor of 10.00 percent to 12.00 percent.

The second quarter showed the same pattern on a smaller base. Sales climbed 13.00 percent to EUR 440 million, while adjusted EBIT rose 19.00 percent to EUR 44 million and the adjusted EBIT margin reached 10.00 percent.

2026 guidance stays conservative

JOST confirmed its 2026 outlook for single-digit sales growth and mid-to-high single-digit growth in adjusted EBIT. Management also expects the EBIT margin to improve from the 9.50 percent level reported for the prior year, while capital expenditure is planned at a maximum of 2.80 percent of sales.

BÖRSE ONLINE reported on September 13, 2026, that Deutsche Bank raised its 2026 adjusted EBIT estimate from EUR 164 million to EUR 166 million while keeping a EUR 76.00 price target. The same report cited a move by MP Capital Markets from EUR 74.00 to EUR 83.00.

Stock remains below its yearly high

JOST's market capitalization was EUR 1.0 billion on September 29, 2026. The 52-week range stood at EUR 48.30 to EUR 67.80, leaving the Lang & Schwarz price below the upper end of that interval and above its lower end.

JOST investor relations identifies ticker JST, the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and SDAX membership, while the company operates in mission-critical systems for commercial vehicles. Its current setup combines double-digit adjusted EBIT growth with a guidance framework that still allows operating performance to outpace sales.
