Indus Holding (ISIN DE0006200108) was trading at EUR 37.55 at Lang & Schwarz on October 20, 2026, at 1:02 p.m. CEST, 1.57 percent below the Xetra close of October 19, 2026 at EUR 38.15. The valuation question follows Boersen-Zeitung coverage of NuWays' October 8, 2026 downgrade to Hold, while the EUR 41.00 target stayed unchanged.

Growth supports the valuation

Indus reported revenue of EUR 965.20 million in the first half of 2026, up 15.40 percent from the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITA increased to EUR 123.50 million from EUR 56.10 million, lifting the adjusted EBITA margin to 12.80 percent from 6.70 percent, according to Boersen-Zeitung.

The same first-half period brought order intake of EUR 1.10 billion, an increase of 22.50 percent. Free cash flow, however, was negative at EUR 36.90 million, creating a useful counterweight to the earnings improvement.

What protects the 2026 margin?

NuWays linked the strong profitability in Materials Solutions to tungsten carbide pricing. The segment's adjusted EBITA reached EUR 84.50 million in the first half of 2026, compared with EUR 23.10 million a year earlier, while its adjusted EBITA margin was 22.40 percent, according to the October 8, 2026 research note published by Boersen-Zeitung. The risk is that lower tungsten prices could normalize margins and leave inventory carrying costs more visible.

Three dates frame the stock

On July 29, 2026, management raised its full-year outlook to revenue of EUR 1.90 billion to EUR 2.10 billion and adjusted EBITA of EUR 220.00 million to EUR 260.00 million. On October 5, 2026, Indus sold 100 percent of MEWESTA to Lange Beteiligungen, as reported by EQS News. On October 20, 2026, the Lang & Schwarz quote stood at EUR 37.55, versus the dated Xetra close of EUR 38.15.

Upcoming reporting date

Indus lists the next interim report for November 12, 2026. The company also lists the German Equity Forum for November 23 to November 24, 2026, on its investor calendar at INDUS Holding AG.

Valuation remains the market test

NuWays' unchanged EUR 41.00 target is 8.41 percent above the Lang & Schwarz price, but the analyst note also says the downgrade was valuation-driven after a rally of 60.00 percent since July. The next report will show whether the strong first-half margin and cash flow profile can support the valuation.
