Fuchs raises 2026 EBIT outlook to around EUR 500 million

By Public Technologies
  • Fuchs raised its 2026 EBIT forecast to about EUR 500 million from EUR 460 million–480 million.
  • Sales are now expected at about EUR 4.1 billion, versus previous guidance significantly above EUR 3.7 billion, reflecting inflation-driven price increases.
  • Free cash flow before acquisitions remains forecast significantly below EUR 270 million as raw material inflation increases working capital.
  • Nine-month EBIT rose 25% to EUR 409 million; sales increased 16% to EUR 3.13 billion.
  • Raw material prices have yet to peak; supply conditions are likely to remain challenging in 2027 even if the conflict ends soon.
