JOST Werke SE Reports Strong Q3 2026 Growth and Profitability

JOST Werke SE announced robust financial results for Q3 2026, with all regions and business lines contributing to a significant 11.3% increase in sales, totaling €426.3 million, up from €383.2 million in Q3 2025. Despite escalating costs, the company achieved an 11.8% rise in adjusted EBIT, reaching €41.6 million, and improved its EBIT margin slightly to 9.8% from 9.7% last year.

The Transport division saw sales climb by 14.3% to €220.5 million, buoyed by higher truck production in the USA. The Agriculture and Hydraulics business lines also experienced substantial growth. While sales in APAC and AMERICAS surged by double digits, EMEA showed modest growth due to regional inefficiencies and rising input costs.

Looking ahead, JOST raised its fiscal outlook. Customer acquisition and integration synergies of Hyva propelled growth across its portfolio, supported by strategic portfolio adjustments. The company continues to enhance capital efficiency, with ROCE increasing to 16.5% and net debt reduced significantly.
