Valmet Oyj (FI4000074984) stock is tied to a new Helen project in Helsinki and a quoted level of EUR 28.76 on August 31, 2026. The order was included in second-quarter 2026 orders received, and the value will not be disclosed.
The catalyst is a Valmet press release on August 31, 2026, which says the company will deliver a flue gas condensing plant to Helen's Salmisaari K6 pellet heating plant in Helsinki. The same release says the system is scheduled to start during the second half of 2027.
Order book support
The project is more than a simple equipment sale. Valmet says the system will recover heat that was previously lost as waste, raise district heat production with the same fuel, and reduce emissions at the plant.
That matters because the order was booked in second-quarter 2026 orders received, giving the announcement a clean link to reported activity in the most recent interim period. In the same release, Valmet said its 2025 net sales totaled EUR 5.2 billion and that it has experts in 40 countries.
Market read-through
A linked market page shows Valmet at EUR 28.76, up 0.21% in the session, with a five-day change of 1.34% and a year-to-date gain of 1.24%. The same page shows a consensus average target of EUR 31.02, which puts the stock below the visible reference level by EUR 2.26.
For investors, the combination of a booked order, a 2027 start date, and a modest year-to-date share gain keeps the attention on execution rather than size. The order value was not disclosed, so the revenue impact will depend on delivery timing and project scope.
Valmet's heat recovery business
Valmet's flue gas condensation systems sit inside its broader process technologies and services offer for pulp, energy, and circularity customers. The Helen deal is a representative example of how the company sells efficiency gains, district heat output, and lower emissions into the same project.
