Siemens Energy's Steep Slide Defies Strong Quarter and Analyst Support

Siemens Energy shares fall 8% amid strong Q2 results and guidance raise; Deutsche Bank sees 45% upside but market remains bearish as technicals flash oversold.

A curious dynamic is playing out at Siemens Energy. The company is hosting roadshows for institutional investors in Copenhagen and Stockholm this week, armed with record quarterly orders and a raised full-year outlook. Yet the stock keeps tumbling, losing more than 8% on Wednesday alone to close at €137.66. Deutsche Bank reiterated its €200 price target just a day earlier, but that has done little to stem the selling pressure.

The disconnect between fundamentals and market sentiment is stark. Siemens Energy reported a standout second quarter for fiscal 2026, with order intake surging 29.5% to €17.7 billion. Gas Services led the charge at €8.9 billion, followed by Grid Technologies with nearly €7.0 billion. Group revenue rose 8.9% to €10.3 billion, while earnings before special items hit €1.164 billion, translating to an 11.3% margin. Those numbers prompted management to lift full-year guidance on May 12, targeting comparable revenue growth of 14% to 16% and an earnings margin of 10% to 12%, with free cash flow before tax of around €8 billion.

The turnaround at the struggling wind turbine subsidiary Siemens Gamesa is also gaining traction. Its pre-special-item loss narrowed from €249 million to €44 million, shrinking the loss margin from 9.2% to just 1.7%. Grid Technologies posted a 41.5% jump in orders with a 17.1% margin, while Gas Services clocked 32.4% order growth and a 15.9% margin. Analyst Gael de-Bray of Deutsche Bank argues that the market is underestimating both the service business and Gamesa's recovery, noting that traditional gas power plants account for only 15% of group revenue.

None of that has prevented a brutal correction. Wednesday's slide pushed the 30-day loss to nearly 23%, widening from 15.87% just a day earlier. The shares now sit almost 30% below the 52-week high of €195.54 reached on April 24. The relative strength index has dropped to 26.8, deep in oversold territory. On the chart, the stock is within 2% of its 200-day moving average of €136.07, a level that often attracts buyers.

For the investor relations team hitting the road in Copenhagen and Stockholm, the task is clear: explain why a company that just raised its outlook is being sold off so aggressively. CFO Maria Ferraro is also scheduled to appear at the J.P. Morgan European Industrials Conference in London on June 17. The next set of quarterly results will be the real test of whether the recent operational momentum is sustainable — particularly how Gamesa's order intake and margins evolve from here. Until then, the bulls and bears are locked in a standoff, with the technicals suggesting the selling may be nearing exhaustion.
