Bulls say / Bears say
JOST delivered its strongest first half on record: H1 2026 revenue rose 13% to EUR 857 million, while adjusted EBIT increased 21% to EUR 88 million, with organic growth of 9% in Q2. (JOST Werke)
Profitability and balance-sheet metrics improved materially: Q2 adjusted EBIT margin reached 10.0%, free cash flow rose to EUR 17.3 million, ROCE increased to 16.3%, and leverage improved to 1.81x—back within management’s 1.0x–2.0x target range. (JOST Werke)
Growth appears increasingly company-specific rather than acquisition-only: management cited new customer wins, cross-selling synergies, and positive organic contributions from all regions and business lines, supporting the AMBITION 2030 strategy. (JOST Werke)
Commercial-vehicle demand remains cyclical: JOST reported continued weakness in the U.S. market during H1 2026 and noted that the American transport market had a slow start to the year, despite growth elsewhere. (JOST Werke)
The February 2026 capital increase issued 1.49 million new shares—about 10% of the pre-issue share capital—creating dilution for existing shareholders, even though it strengthened financial flexibility. (JOST Werke)
Execution risk remains elevated after the Hyva acquisition: JOST is still integrating the business while also divesting Hyva’s Indian tipper-body unit, and management has warned that weaker economic momentum or supply-chain disruptions could hurt results. (JOST Werke)
