Vidrala stock (ISIN ES0183746314) was trading at EUR 88.90 on BME at 1:30 p.m. CEST on September 28, 2026, up 0.57 percent from the prior close. The company enters the final quarter with H1 2026 EBITDA of EUR 225.5 million and a margin that expanded by 110 basis points year over year.
H1 margin reaches 29.9 percent
According to Yahoo Finance on July 23, 2026, Vidrala reported EUR 754 million of revenue for the first half of 2026, while EBITDA reached EUR 225.5 million and earnings per share stood at EUR 3.36. Revenue changed by negative 3.8 percent on a constant-currency, comparable-perimeter basis, but EBITDA margin increased to 29.9 percent.
The combination matters because the glass container maker absorbed weaker volumes and pricing while protecting profitability. Yahoo Finance reported that H1 pricing fell 1.8 percent and that the margin improvement reached 110 basis points against the same period of 2025.
Balance sheet supports capital returns
Vidrala's net debt stood at EUR 252 million at the end of June 2026, corresponding to 0.6x pro forma EBITDA, according to Yahoo Finance. The same call detailed a 2026 dividend increase of 15 percent and a buyback authorization of up to 3 percent of share capital, although those capital returns also raise the importance of sustained cash generation.
Valuation remains a second part of the debate. Yahoo Finance published a Simply Wall St analysis on September 26, 2026, citing a fair value of EUR 102.13 against a recent close of EUR 88.40. The analysis also identified weaker like-for-like demand and elevated modernization spending as counterweights to the margin case.
Stock stays below yearly high
At EUR 88.90, Vidrala's BME share price was EUR 3.90 below its 52-week high of EUR 92.80 and above the 52-week low of EUR 70.40 on September 28, 2026. Market capitalization was EUR 3.1 billion and trading volume was 5,500 shares at the same intraday snapshot.
