Knorr-Bremse stock (ISIN DE000KBX1006) was trading at EUR 101.00 on Xetra on October 7, 2026, with a 52-week range of EUR 77.40 to EUR 115.60. The company used the 20th International Investment Forum to present a 2030 growth plan focused on rail signaling, energy technologies, aftermarket services and digital tools, as Investing.com reported on October 7, 2026.

EUR 10 billion target by 2030

Management is targeting organic revenue of EUR 10 billion by 2030, compared with EUR 7.8 billion in 2025, and an operating EBIT margin of 16 percent. The plan also calls for return on capital employed above 25 percent, cash conversion above 90 percent and free cash flow above EUR 1 billion, according to Investing.com.

The strategy shifts emphasis from the BOOST restructuring program toward growth fields. Rail signaling, energy systems, digitalization and autonomous-truck technologies are intended to add content beyond the companys core braking systems, while aftermarket operations support recurring revenue.

Q2 results set the base

Knorr-Bremse reported EUR 2.143 billion in Q2 2026 revenue, EUR 305 million in operating EBIT and EUR 294 million in free cash flow on its investor-relations page. The figures are listed in the companys Q2 2026 financial overview at Knorr-Bremse.

The operating profile gives investors a measurable starting point for the 2030 plan. Revenue must increase by EUR 2.2 billion from the 2025 level, while the margin target requires further improvement from the 13 percent operating EBIT margin cited for 2025 at the IIF.

Analysts see further upside

MarketScreener listed a Buy consensus from 15 analysts on September 22, 2026. The average price target was EUR 119.73, with a high of EUR 133.00 and a low of EUR 95.00; the average target was 18.54 percent above the EUR 101.00 Xetra price.

Berenberg maintained a Buy rating and a EUR 125.00 target in its September 29, 2026 research update, as reported by FinanzNachrichten. The counterweight is operational execution, especially in China and the commercial-vehicle market, where management described demand as weaker than in rail.

Stock stays below yearly high
