Industrial Conglomerates Mechanical Engineering

Event Summary

Hoenle AG, a German industrial technology company, cut its FY25/26 guidance on July 22, 2026, due to weaker-than-anticipated demand in its Curing segment, particularly from the printing industry. The new revenue guidance is EUR 92-95 million (down from EUR 95-105 million) and EBITDA guidance is EUR 5-6 million (down from EUR 6-9 million). The Curing segment faces headwinds from a challenging mechanical engineering environment and the insolvency of key client Manroland Sheetfed GmbH in early March 2026. In contrast, the Adhesives and Disinfection segments continue to show growth. NuWays AG, the covering research firm, reduced its target price for Hoenle AG from EUR 15 to EUR 14 but maintained a BUY rating. The company is expected to report Q3 FY25/26 results on August 18, 2026, with continued restructuring efforts.
