Fincantieri (IT0005599938) disclosed a EUR 3.7 billion contract for two DDX destroyers for the Italian Navy on September 24, 2026, according to Fincantieri. Fincantieri stock was trading at EUR 12.08 at Lang & Schwarz on October 7, 2026 at 2:16 p.m. CEST, minus 0.90 percent versus the prior close of EUR 12.19.

Destroyer contract strengthens backlog

The DDX award adds to a defense pipeline that management linked to long-term order visibility. Fincantieri's investor-relations page also lists the September 8, 2026 agreement involving Italy and Greece for two FREMM frigates, giving the recent naval activity a second concrete reference point.

The contract arrives as the group prepares for its next interim update, scheduled for November 12, 2026, when the board is due to approve information for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. That date is listed in the company's investor calendar.

Profit growth supports guidance

In the first half of 2026, Fincantieri reported revenue of EUR 4.58 billion and net profit of EUR 102 million, according to Yahoo Finance. Adjusted net result reached EUR 113 million versus EUR 48 million in the first half of 2025, a quantified comparison that shows the improvement was not limited to reported net profit.

Management kept its 2026 outlook at revenue of EUR 9.3 billion to EUR 9.4 billion, EBITDA of EUR 700 million to EUR 710 million and net profit of EUR 140 million to EUR 180 million. The first-half EBITDA margin was 7.6 percent, compared with 6.8 percent in the first half of 2025, while the full-year margin target remains 7.5 percent.

Stock remains below yearly high

For investors, the contrast is clear: operating profitability improved while the euro quote remains close to the lower part of its wider market range. The primary listing is on Borsa Italiana under FCT.MI, and the finance quote showed a USD 4.9 billion market capitalization and a USD 11.20 to USD 31.46 52-week range as of October 6, 2026.

At Lang & Schwarz, Fincantieri stock was trading at EUR 12.08 on October 7, 2026 at 2:16 p.m. CEST, minus 0.90 percent versus the Lang & Schwarz prior close of EUR 12.19. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of Fincantieri stock.
