What the Analysts think about Wacker Chemie AG

Analyst projections of the future price of Wacker Chemie AG stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Q3 EBITDA nearly doubled year on year to €217 million, and Wacker says its PACE programme is on track to deliver more than €300 million in annual savings from 2028. That gives the company a clear route to better margins even before end-market demand recovers. (Wacker Chemie AG)
Wacker expects 2026 EBITDA to land in the upper half of its €625 million–€750 million range and now forecasts net financial debt of about €200 million, with positive net cash flow well above 2025. This points to stronger earnings and a firmer balance sheet. (Wacker Chemie AG)
Semiconductor-grade polysilicon continues to perform well, while Wacker is directing investment towards growth areas such as electronics, healthcare and mobility. Its new strategy targets growth above the global economy and a sustainable ROCE above 10%. (Wacker Chemie AG, Wacker Chemie AG)
Wacker says there is still no sign of a sustained economic turnaround, with demand from customers in sectors such as automotive and construction remaining cautious. That leaves the recovery exposed if customers continue to hold back orders. (Wacker Chemie AG)
Solar-grade polysilicon remains challenging, and Wacker says unresolved US trade-policy implications are adding significant uncertainty to its outlook. Reuters also reported that the company was disappointed by the US support framework, which it said was not achieving its intended goal. (Wacker Chemie AG, Reuters)
The Q3 profit increase was helped by favourable currency and product-mix effects and a roughly €35 million contract-termination gain, while EBITDA was only slightly higher than in Q2. The unchanged annual forecast remains subject to high uncertainty, making the sharp year-on-year improvement less certain as a run-rate. (Wacker Chemie AG)
