KION stock traded at EUR 35.79 on Lang & Schwarz at 07:53 CET on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, 1.45% above the Xetra close of Monday, November 9, at EUR 35.28.

Automation remains the key contrast

Recent KION coverage has highlighted stronger momentum in Intelligent Automation Solutions while demand and orders in Industrial Trucks & Services remain weaker. That split gives investors two opposing signals ahead of the new trading session: growth in warehouse automation supports the business, while the core truck operation continues to weigh on the outlook.

KION has also reduced its 2026 revenue and adjusted EBIT expectations. The company now expects revenue of EUR 11.45 billion to EUR 11.75 billion and adjusted EBIT of EUR 815 million to EUR 875 million. Its medium-term goal of a double-digit adjusted EBIT margin is now expected only after 2027.

From 2027, KION plans to report a separate Financial Services segment alongside Industrial Trucks & Services and Intelligent Automation Solutions. The change, linked to the introduction of IFRS 18, will affect how investors compare segment performance and model the group.

The broader German market remains the relevant backdrop for KION stock, with the DAX providing the main domestic benchmark.
