KPN (ISIN NL0000009082) traded at EUR 4.06 at Lang & Schwarz on October 21, 2026, at 10:40 a.m. CEST, standing 8.27 percent above its 52-week low of EUR 3.75. The latest company event was a management reshuffle announced on October 1, 2026, with Wouter Stammeijer set to become chief financial officer and Vladimir Cibic chief technology officer from November 1, 2026, according to Yahoo Finance.

Two internal appointments take effect

Stammeijer has served on KPN's management board as chief operating officer since 2023 and previously held investor relations and strategy roles. Cibic, who joined KPN in 2000, has worked across information technology, digitalization, customer experience and cybersecurity, the company release said.

The change keeps both roles inside KPN while placing finance under an executive with operational and strategic experience. Cibic's technology remit also connects the reshuffle with KPN's secure digital-services strategy. The same release said Piero Overmars would be nominated for the supervisory board at the 2027 annual meeting.

What do the latest figures show?

KPN's second-quarter 2026 earnings call showed adjusted revenue down 0.50 percent year over year, but up 2.50 percent excluding one-off effects. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization after leases increased 3.40 percent on a comparable basis, while the reported margin reached 45.60 percent, according to Yahoo Finance.

Free cash flow reached EUR 329.00 million in the first half of 2026, up 7.00 percent year over year. Management also said group service revenue growth was expected to accelerate to 2.00 percent to 2.50 percent in the second half, while full-year EBITDA and free cash flow guidance remained intact.

When are the next results due?

KPN is scheduled to publish third-quarter 2026 results on October 28, 2026, according to Simply Wall St. That report will test whether the weaker business-services trends described in the second-quarter call were temporary and whether the expected second-half acceleration is emerging.
