POLYTEC HOLDING AG lowers earnings forecast for the 2026 financial year

The Management Board of POLYTEC Holding AG today adjusted the earnings forecast for the current financial year on the basis of the current business development and the updated planning for the fourth quarter of 2026.

While an EBIT margin of around 3% was previously expected for the 2026 financial year, management now expects an EBIT margin of 1% to 2%.

The main reason for this adjustment is short-term sales revenue adjustments by key customers for the fourth quarter. In addition, operating burdens from the portfolio adjustments made will continue to have a temporary effect, which is due, among other things, to the closure of the Weierbach plant.

Full-year sales revenues are expected to be at the lower end of the forecast at around EUR 560 million.
