Petrol urged flexible fuel pricing. Petrol dd stock sits 8.73 percent below its 52-week high
Published on 10/08/2026 at 13:10 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSPetrol dd (SI0031102153) was trading at EUR 60.60 at Lang & Schwarz on October 8, 2026 at 1:04 p.m. CEST, leaving the stock 8.73 percent below its 52-week high of EUR 66.40. Petrol had called for a more flexible fuel-pricing model in a company statement dated September 21, 2026, as regulated margins face pressure from volatile procurement costs.
Fuel pricing remains the key issue
According to Petrol on September 21, 2026, the company was seeking a transition toward market-based fuel prices with consumer safeguards. The company said regulated fuel sales carry a maximum gross retail margin of EUR 0.115 per liter, while European Union retail fuel margins exceed EUR 0.20 per liter.
That gap matters because Petrol buys fuel on international markets before selling it under regulated conditions. The company also said the current model can weigh on the economics of regulated fuel sales when wholesale prices move sharply.
Revenue growth did not protect profit
Petrol's first-half 2026 revenue rose 12.00 percent to EUR 3.30 billion, but net profit fell 24.00 percent to EUR 57.40 million. Na borzi reported that EBITDA declined to EUR 131.80 million in the same period, a drop of EUR 13.60 million from the prior-year period.
The figures show the central tension for the group: higher fuel prices lifted revenue, while regulation absorbed the benefit at the profit level. The same review said regulated fuel sales in Slovenia generated a EUR 27.50 million loss in March during a sudden demand surge.
Stock remains below its yearly high
Petrol stock was trading at EUR 60.60 at Lang & Schwarz on October 8, 2026 at 1:04 p.m. CEST, plus 0.33 percent versus the prior close of EUR 60.40 on October 7, 2026. The 52-week range was EUR 46.20 to EUR 66.40, while market capitalization stood at EUR 2.5 billion.
