German firms boost 2026 earnings outlooks
Entities: Michael Müller · European renewable energy market · Amprion GmbH · Amprion · Offshore Wind Division (RWE)
Overview
In late July 2026 two prominent German companies revised their financial guidance upward. On 22 July, Deutsche Rohstoff AG raised its 2026 EBITDA forecast to €355‑375 million, up from €290‑310 million, after selling a stake in Almonty Industries that contributed roughly €65 million pre‑tax. The firm left its revenue outlook unchanged at €260‑280 million and based the new assumptions on higher oil and gas prices and a stable EUR/USD rate.
Six days later, on 28 July, energy group RWE lifted its full‑year 2026 earnings outlook, expanding adjusted EBITDA to €5.75‑6.35 billion and net income to €1.95‑2.45 billion after reporting adjusted EBITDA of €3.0 billion for the first half of the year. The upgrade was driven by strong performance from renewable assets, energy trading gains, a one‑off benefit from a larger stake in transmission operator Amprion, and higher commodity prices. RWE also raised its 2027 outlook to €6.7‑7.3 billion adjusted EBITDA and €2.2‑2.7 billion net income, reaffirmed a €1.32 per‑share dividend and outlined a plan to increase payouts by roughly 10 % annually through 2031. Its shares rose about 4.5 % after the announcement.
Together, these updates reflect a broader trend of German corporations revising upward their 2026 earnings expectations amid favorable market conditions and strategic transactions.
