Revenue and profit improved
Drägerwerk reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of EUR 847.30 million, an 8.60 percent increase from EUR 779.99 million in the year-earlier quarter. Net income rose to EUR 29.52 million from EUR 11.26 million, a 162.10 percent increase, according to aktienmagazin.de.
The figures point to a sharper earnings recovery than the sales increase alone suggests. Net margin reached 3.49 percent in the second quarter of 2026, compared with 1.44 percent in the second quarter of 2025, calculated from the reported revenue and net income figures.
What does the margin outlook show?
Dräger's Investor Relations page gives a 2026 EBIT margin outlook of 5.00 to 7.50 percent, alongside currency-adjusted revenue growth of 2.00 to 6.00 percent. The company also expects DVA between EUR 20.00 million and EUR 120.00 million in fiscal year 2026, according to its Investor Relations page.
Three milestones frame the recovery
On March 24, 2026, Dräger reported fiscal 2025 revenue of EUR 3.50 billion after revenue of EUR 3.40 billion in fiscal 2024, as listed in the company's news record at finanzen.ch. On July 30, 2026, the second-quarter revenue reached EUR 847.30 million and net income EUR 29.52 million. The September 10, 2026 MWB target of EUR 130.00 then set a higher valuation reference.
Next reporting date is October 29
Drägerwerk's next scheduled reporting date is October 29, 2026, for third-quarter results, according to MarketScreener. That release will help test whether the second-quarter margin improvement is carrying into the second half.
