Bulls say / Bears say
Demand is holding up: first-half revenue reached a record €247.8m, up 6.6%, while second-quarter revenue rose 10.4%. Equipment orders increased, led by double-digit growth in North America, giving WashTec support for further sales growth. (EQS News)
North America is showing signs of a turnaround. First-half regional revenue rose 18.1% and EBIT moved to a profit of €0.8m from a €1.5m loss, although the business still has room to reach its medium-term margin target. (Yahoo Finance)
The strategic upside remains material if execution improves. WashTec still targets a 12–14% EBIT margin in 2028/29, supported by efficiency programmes, a growing recurring-revenue share and its North American strategy. (MarketScreener)
Management has cut its 2026 earnings outlook. It now expects an EBIT margin of only 8–9% and ROCE below the prior year, after delays to efficiency projects and restructuring costs; organisational changes are also expected to reduce revenue by a single-digit million-euro amount. (EQS News)
Profit conversion is weak so far. First-half EBIT was almost flat at €17.7m despite 6.6% revenue growth, the margin fell to 7.1% from 7.6%, and free cash flow dropped to €13.7m from €20.0m. (EQS News)
The recurring consumables stream is under pressure. First-half consumables revenue fell 5%, and the company now describes the business as stable but below expectations, weakening the quality and resilience of the growth mix. (Investing.com, EQS News)
