Klöckner (ISIN DE000KC01000) signed an agreement on October 8, 2026, to sell Becker Group to Accura Investment Partners and Becker Consult + Beteiligungs-GmbH. The transaction is expected to close before year-end 2026, while an extraordinary shareholder vote on a separate control agreement is scheduled for October 23, 2026.
Three milestones shape the deal
In January 2026, Klöckner announced its intention to divest Becker Group after reviewing strategic options, according to Klöckner.
On June 30, 2026, the second quarter produced revenue of EUR 1.69 billion and a net loss of EUR 269.10 million, figures reported for Klöckner by Investing.com. On October 8, 2026, Klöckner signed the Becker sale agreement, with completion expected before year-end 2026.
What does the sale mean for earnings?
The transaction sharpens Klöckner's portfolio around higher-value products and services, but the purchase price remains confidential. Becker Group supplies steel, stainless steel and aluminum across Europe, so the divestment changes the group's mix rather than removing it from the metals value chain.
The control agreement adds a second corporate milestone. According to Investing.com, the October 23, 2026, vote requires approval from 75 percent of the share capital represented at the meeting. The agreement could become effective from January 1, 2027, subject to approval and registration.
Dates investors can track
The next two dated milestones are the extraordinary shareholder vote on October 23, 2026, and Klöckner's scheduled third-quarter 2026 report on November 4, 2026, listed by onvista.
