Revenue grew in the second quarter

Bilfinger reported revenue of EUR 1.45 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared with EUR 1.35 billion a year earlier. Net income reached EUR 54.1 million versus EUR 47.6 million in the prior-year quarter, increases of 7.41 percent and 13.66 percent respectively, according to Markets Insider. The figures give investors a stronger operating base than the share price alone suggests.

What does the target cut mean?

The new UBS target lies 27.27 percent above the Lang & Schwarz price. That gap is narrower than the 81.82 percent implied by Deutsche Bank's EUR 100.00 target, which the bank maintained on October 16, 2026, according to Markets Insider. The range of targets reflects different views on delayed customer projects and Bilfinger's exposure to chemicals.

Three dates reshape expectations

On October 15, 2026, Bernstein kept its EUR 62.00 target and Market-Perform rating, according to Finanznachrichten. On October 16, 2026, Bilfinger lowered its 2026 revenue guidance to EUR 5.3 billion to EUR 5.7 billion from EUR 5.4 billion to EUR 5.9 billion and cut adjusted EBITA margin guidance to 4.6 percent to 5.0 percent, as TradingView reported.
