The company approved a share buyback of up to EUR 15 million, according to a Wiener Börse report dated October 8, 2026.
Three events set the timeline
PORR's recent sequence combines stronger first-half profitability with capital-market activity. On August 27, 2026, first-half 2026 EBIT reached EUR 56.30 million, up 15.60 percent, while adjusted earnings per share rose 34.00 percent to EUR 0.71, as reported in the Yahoo Finance transcript. On September 23, 2026, PORR successfully placed a EUR 150 million hybrid convertible bond, according to MarketScreener. The latest event came on October 8, 2026, when PORR approved the buyback.
What does the buyback change?
The program covers 392,782 shares, equal to 1.00 percent of share capital, and runs from October 14, 2026 through March 31, 2027. Purchases may take place through the Vienna Stock Exchange and multilateral trading facilities, with the maximum purchase price capped at EUR 15 million, the Wiener Börse report said. The scale is limited relative to PORR's EUR 1.2 billion market capitalization, but the program creates a defined source of potential demand while the company works through seasonal construction cash flows.
Dates for the next decisions
The buyback began on October 14, 2026. The next reporting date is November 18, 2026, when PORR is scheduled to publish third-quarter 2026 results, according to the calendar shown by MarketScreener.
Stock remains below its yearly high
The finance picture is mixed in scale: the stock's 52-week range is EUR 25.30 to EUR 46.55, while the market capitalization is EUR 1.2 billion as of October 15, 2026. For investors, the next test is whether the buyback can support the share while PORR converts its stronger order backlog and first-half margin into second-half cash generation.
