Salzgitter stock (ISIN DE0006202005) was at EUR 44.04 at Lang & Schwarz on October 8, 2026 at 6:02 p.m. CEST, 34.85 percent below its EUR 67.60 52-week high. The company had signed a power purchase agreement on September 16, 2026, giving Salzgitter Flachstahl access to solar and battery capacity for its lower-carbon steel production, according to Finanznachrichten.

Three dated operating signals

On August 11, 2026, Salzgitter reported second-quarter revenue of EUR 2.24 billion, down 3.96 percent from EUR 2.34 billion in the prior-year quarter. The quarter also produced negative earnings per share of EUR 0.73, compared with negative EUR 1.02 a year earlier, according to finanzen.ch.

On September 16, 2026, the agreement with Zelestra covered two hybrid facilities with 147 megawatts of photovoltaic capacity, 79 megawatts of battery capacity and 237 megawatt-hours of storage, Finanznachrichten reported. On October 8, 2026, the stock was quoted at EUR 44.04 at Lang & Schwarz, completing the chronology with a market value of EUR 2.4 billion.

What does the revenue decline mean?

The second-quarter comparison points to weaker sales rather than a simple volume story: revenue declined by EUR 92.8 million from the prior-year quarter, while the loss per share narrowed by EUR 0.29. That combination leaves the next reporting date especially important for judging whether the steel and technology businesses are stabilizing.

Salzgitter operates through steel production, steel processing, trading and technology activities. The power agreement adds a quantified energy component to the SALCOS transformation plan, but the latest quarterly figures still show the financial pressure that the group must absorb while investing in lower-carbon production.

Two dates already set

Salzgitter's investor-relations calendar lists the next nine-month 2026 quarterly communication for November 12, 2026, followed by the publication of the 2026 consolidated financial statements on March 18, 2027, according to Salzgitter AG. The November release will provide the next periodized test of revenue, earnings and the group's transformation spending.

Stock stays below its yearly high

The EUR 44.04 Lang & Schwarz quote on October 8, 2026 stood EUR 23.56 below the EUR 67.60 52-week high, a gap of 34.85 percent. For investors, the central comparison is now between the scheduled November figures and the second-quarter baseline of EUR 2.24 billion revenue.
