Plastika Kritis stock gains 10 percent after half year results
Published on 09/23/2026 at 12:44 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSPlastika Kritis stock gained 10 percent over the two sessions ending September 23, 2026, while the company reported first half revenue of EUR 226.6 million and EBITDA of EUR 38.2 million. The figures point to a sharp improvement in profitability across the group.
Revenue reaches EUR 226.6 million
According to Zougla on September 22, 2026, consolidated revenue in the first half of 2026 rose 13.2 percent from EUR 200.2 million in the first half of 2025 to EUR 226.6 million. Sold volumes increased 8.2 percent during the period, while the second quarter recorded volume growth of 10.8 percent.
The comparison is important because the revenue gain was accompanied by higher volumes and higher average selling prices. That combination gives the result more operating substance than a price-led increase alone.
EBITDA margin widens to 16.8 percent
Newmoney reported on September 22, 2026 that first half EBITDA increased 57.1 percent to EUR 38.2 million, lifting the EBITDA margin to 16.8 percent from 12.1 percent. Adjusted EBITDA rose 67.2 percent over the same reporting period.
Net profit after minority interests more than doubled to EUR 18.5 million from about EUR 7.9 million in the first half of 2025, according to Newmoney on September 22, 2026. The margin expansion and earnings comparison are the central operating signals behind the recent share-price reaction.
Shares react to stronger earnings
The stock move and the half year figures now form a clear market comparison: Plastika Kritis stock gained 10 percent over two sessions, while first half EBITDA grew 57.1 percent and net profit rose by more than 100 percent year over year. The stronger improvement in earnings than in revenue indicates that profitability, rather than sales growth alone, drove the result.
Stock trades near EUR 5.40 high
As Naftemporiki reported on September 23, 2026, the shares had returned toward the EUR 5.40 high after the roughly 10 percent two-session rally. The same report put the company valuation at about EUR 230 million, providing a market-value reference for the earnings response.
On September 23, 2026, the most relevant investor checkpoint is whether the improved EBITDA margin can be sustained after the first half reporting period. The published figures show EUR 23.4 million of EBIT and EUR 19.2 million of net profit for the first half of 2026, compared with EUR 8.2 million of net profit in the first half of 2025.
