Südzucker stock gained 3.12 percent to EUR 12.54 on Xetra on September 28, 2026, as second-quarter operating EBITDA rose to EUR 168.0 million from EUR 93.0 million. Südzucker Group reported the result on September 28, 2026, and raised its revenue outlook for fiscal 2026/27.

EBITDA rises above prior year

The EUR 168.0 million operating Group EBITDA for Q2 2026/27 compared with EUR 93.0 million in Q2 2025/26. That represents an 80.65 percent year-over-year increase, giving the earnings update a sharper edge than the revenue outlook alone.

Südzucker Group attributed the improvement mainly to higher ethanol prices in CropEnergies and higher sales volumes in the special products segment. The mix matters for investors because it combines a price effect in ethanol with a volume effect in specialty products.

Guidance moves higher

For fiscal 2026/27, Südzucker now expects revenue of EUR 8.3 billion to EUR 8.7 billion, compared with the previous EUR 8.1 billion to EUR 8.5 billion range. The lower end therefore increased by EUR 200.0 million, or 2.47 percent.

The operating Group EBITDA range narrowed to EUR 540.0 million to EUR 680.0 million from EUR 480.0 million to EUR 680.0 million. Südzucker Group also said geopolitical and global economic developments remain material factors for the forecast.

Stock remains below yearly high

Südzucker was last at EUR 12.54 on Xetra on September 28, 2026 at 5:35 p.m. CEST, with a session range of EUR 12.06 to EUR 13.12. The price stood 7.59 percent below the 52-week high of EUR 13.57 and above the 52-week low of EUR 8.92, while market capitalization was EUR 2.6 billion and volume reached 519,164 shares.

The next quantified checkpoint is the first-half report scheduled for October 8, 2026. Südzucker Group named that date in its September 28, 2026 release, making the report the next formal test of the raised lower end of the EBITDA outlook.
