Wienerberger stock was trading at EUR 15.75 on the Vienna Stock Exchange on October 7, 2026 at 1:27 p.m. CEST, down 1.93 percent from the prior close. The building materials group cut its fiscal 2026 operating EBITDA guidance to EUR 640-650 million on October 6, 2026, as weaker housing demand and higher input costs weighed on the outlook.

Guidance falls on weak demand

According to Wienerberger in its October 6, 2026 trading update, the company expects third-quarter revenue of EUR 1.2-1.3 billion and operating EBITDA of EUR 170-180 million. The release said residential new-build activity remained under pressure in the United Kingdom, the United States and Canada, while renovation and infrastructure activity developed more steadily.

Investing.com reported on October 6, 2026 that the shares fell as much as 4.8 percent after the guidance reduction. The report linked the pressure to weaker construction activity and higher energy, raw-material and logistics costs, leaving the new EBITDA range as the central near-term test for management.

Stock remains far below yearly high

At EUR 15.75, the stock stood 49.55 percent below its 52-week high of EUR 31.22 and only EUR 0.19 above its 52-week low of EUR 15.56, with both levels dated October 7, 2026. Trading volume stood at 290,739 shares, while Wienerberger's market capitalization was EUR 1.7 billion on the same date.

An interview published by Börse Express on October 6, 2026 stated that more than 60 percent of Wienerberger's revenue came from areas outside residential new construction. The same interview reported second-quarter 2026 operating EBITDA of EUR 230 million, highlighting the importance of renovation and infrastructure demand in offsetting weakness in new builds.

November report sets next checkpoint

Wienerberger will publish its report for the first nine months of 2026 on November 12, 2026. The company also plans to update investors on its strategic review and accelerated cost-optimization initiatives, making the report a concrete checkpoint for the revised EBITDA outlook.

Wienerberger stock trades near yearly low

Wienerberger stock was last at EUR 15.75 on the Vienna Stock Exchange on October 7, 2026 at 1:27 p.m. CEST. The combination of a 1.93 percent daily decline, a EUR 1.7 billion market capitalization and a position 49.55 percent below the yearly high gives the revised guidance immediate importance for the next results update.
