Südzucker lifts revenue outlook: Südzucker stock sits 8.99 percent below its high

Südzucker (ISIN DE0007297004) was trading at EUR 12.35 at Lang & Schwarz on October 6, 2026 at 9:49 a.m. CEST, plus 0.24 percent versus the EUR 12.32 prior close. In its September 28, 2026 release, Südzucker Group raised the fiscal 2026/27 revenue outlook to EUR 8.3 billion to EUR 8.7 billion from EUR 8.1 billion to EUR 8.5 billion.

Second-quarter EBITDA rebounds

Operating Group EBITDA reached EUR 168 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026/27, compared with EUR 93 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025/26. That represents an increase of 80.65 percent, calculated from the reported figures.

Südzucker Group attributed the improvement mainly to higher ethanol prices in CropEnergies and higher sales volumes in Special Products. The result gives the guidance change a concrete operating basis rather than relying only on a revised forecast range.

Revenue and EBITDA floors rise

The revenue forecast now starts at EUR 8.3 billion instead of EUR 8.1 billion and reaches EUR 8.7 billion instead of EUR 8.5 billion for fiscal 2026/27. Südzucker Group also lifted the lower end of its operating Group EBITDA range from EUR 480 million to EUR 540 million, while keeping the upper end at EUR 680 million.

The next hard test is scheduled for October 8, 2026, when Südzucker plans to publish its first-half fiscal 2026/27 report. The date is listed in the company's investor-relations calendar, while the current guidance still carries the company's warning that geopolitical and global economic developments create uncertainty for future performance.

Stock remains below its yearly high

Südzucker stock sat at EUR 12.35, or 8.99 percent below the EUR 13.57 52-week high, on October 6, 2026. The market capitalization was EUR 2.5 billion, and the price remained inside a 52-week range of EUR 8.92 to EUR 13.57.

For investors, the key distinction is between improving earnings and the timing of the recovery: the second-quarter EBITDA comparison is already visible, while the October 8 report can add detail on sugar volumes, ethanol capacity use and the wider segment contribution.
