Schindler stock (ISIN CH0024638196) closed at CHF 259.60 on SIX on October 7, 2026, down 0.69 percent from the CHF 261.40 prior close. The next major checkpoint is Schindler's third-quarter report on October 22, 2026.

First-half revenue reached CHF 5.329 billion

According to Schindler in its June 30, 2026 interim report, first-half order intake reached CHF 5.794 billion and revenue reached CHF 5.329 billion.

Revenue grew 1.4 percent in local currencies from the first half of 2025, while order intake increased 2.9 percent on the same basis, according to Schindler. The comparison points to a modest top-line expansion, making the margin trend especially important for the next report.

Margin expansion raises the bar

Schindler's operating margin reached 13.2 percent in the first half of 2026, an increase of 90 basis points from the year-earlier period, according to Yahoo Finance. Management maintained its full-year 2026 guidance for low to mid-single-digit revenue growth in local currencies and a 13 percent operating margin.

The company also expects modernization to deliver strong double-digit growth, while service is projected to post mid-single-digit growth. New installations declined by a high single-digit percentage in the first half, leaving the business mix as a key issue for the October report.

Stock remains below its yearly high

The participation certificate's October 7 close of CHF 259.60 stood CHF 54.60 below its 52-week high of CHF 314.20 and CHF 13.00 above its 52-week low of CHF 246.60. The gap to the high was 17.38 percent, while the stock's one-year performance was down 12.71 percent.

Global Banking & Finance identifies the security as SCHP.SW on SIX under ISIN CH0024638196. For investors, the October 22 results will show whether margin strength can offset the slower revenue growth visible in the first half.
