Hochtief stock falls as quarterly profit and sales rise

Hochtief reported stronger third-quarter results on Thursday, November 5, 2026, with net income and sales above the year-earlier figures. The figures were reported by Yahoo Finance, citing DPA.

Profit and sales accelerate

Third-quarter net income rose to 260.051 million euros from 174.615 million euros a year earlier. Earnings per share increased to 3.46 euros from 2.32 euros, while sales reached 11.914 billion euros compared with 9.739 billion euros in the prior-year quarter.

Hochtief retained its 2026 operating-profit outlook at 1.025 billion to 1.1 billion euros. The company recorded operating profit of 789 million euros in fiscal 2025, leaving the current forecast dependent on continued execution through the final quarter.

Share performance adds a second test

Hochtief stock traded at 349.50 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 17:12 CET on Thursday, November 5, 2026, 3.88 percent below the Xetra close of Wednesday, November 4, at 363.60 euros. Compared with the 368.00-euro quote in the earlier Hochtief report published at 11:43 CET the same day, the share was down 5.03 percent.

The comparison since the earlier report gives investors a separate reference point from the day's Xetra movement. The stronger quarterly figures now provide a fresh basis for judging whether earnings momentum can support the company's valuation.
