Mutares SE & Co. KGaA stock (ISIN DE000A0Z23Y2) traded at EUR 25.60 on Xetra and EUR 25.65 on Tradegate on August 28, 2026, after a 1.96 percent gain. The same coverage put market value at EUR 562 million and left the shares below the January 2026 peak.
Half-year numbers matter
In the first half of 2026, revenue came in at EUR 3.4 billion and adjusted EBITDA rose to EUR 67 million, a swing of more than EUR 150 million from the prior-year period. Adjusted net income was EUR 6 million versus EUR 70 million a year earlier, which shows how uneven the profit bridge remains even after the EBITDA rebound.
The first-half profile also matters for valuation because the current market cap of EUR 562 million sits against EUR 3.4 billion of revenue in the period. That gap keeps the balance between operational improvement and execution risk at the center of the story.
Deals keep shaping the tape
Recent coverage tied the share performance to a EUR 450 million transaction in Mutares's portfolio buildout, while another update said the board reaffirmed full-year guidance after the first-half figures. The same set of figures shows why investors are still watching exits and integrations, not just the headline profit line.
For context, the shares ended August 28, 2026 at EUR 25.95 in one market snapshot, still about 26 percent below the January high of EUR 35.15. That makes the stock's recovery dependent on whether the second-half pipeline translates into cash and earnings follow-through.
Portfolio pieces
One recent portfolio item is the technical thermoplastics business formerly linked to SABIC, a deal valued at USD 450 million in the coverage. Another transaction discussed in recent reporting was the planned divestment of NEM, with expected proceeds above EUR 100 million if the exit closes in the third quarter of 2026.
Those moves fit Mutares's model of buying, restructuring, and selling industrial assets, with Chemicals & Materials and Automotive & Mobility as the main operating lanes visible in the current reporting.
