Mutares (DE000A2NB650) cited an EUR 880 million order backlog at portfolio company Nord Gas Solutions on October 14, 2026, while its stock traded 3.27 percent below the Xetra close the following afternoon. The announcement also put NGS revenue and profitability targets on the market's radar.
NGS backlog reaches EUR 880 million
According to EQS News, NGS had generated EUR 459 million in revenue and EUR 43 million in adjusted EBITDA during the first nine months of 2026, versus EUR 283 million and EUR 20 million in the prior-year period. The figures show a quantified improvement in both sales and adjusted operating earnings.
NGS expects 2026 revenue to exceed EUR 575 million and adjusted EBITDA to reach EUR 50 million. Its fixed backlog covered 92 percent of planned 2027 revenue as of September 30, 2026, giving Mutares a visible operating metric beyond the current reporting year.
What does the backlog mean for margins?
The answer is the combination of growth and execution. NGS held EUR 880 million of orders and a EUR 1.8 billion project pipeline on September 30, 2026, while management targeted a double-digit adjusted EBITDA margin for 2027, according to EQS News. Mutares is also evaluating strategic exit alternatives for NGS, including a possible Nordic listing, but the announcement said no transaction decision had been made.
Three dated portfolio steps
On September 30, 2026, Mutares completed the Synthomer acquisition, a platform with EUR 110 million of 2025 carve-out revenue, according to EQS News. On October 1, 2026, it accepted EUR 10.4 million of bonds in a partial repurchase, reducing the outstanding nominal amount to EUR 222 million, according to EQS News. On October 14, 2026, the NGS update put EUR 880 million of backlog and more than EUR 575 million of expected 2026 revenue at the center.
November brings two company dates
Mutares is scheduled to publish its third-quarter 2026 report on November 12, 2026, followed by its London Investor Day on November 19, 2026, according to the company's investor-relations calendar at Mutares. These dates provide the next checkpoints for portfolio integration, refinancing and the NGS strategy.
