Stabilus SE Reports Decline in Q1 FY2026 Revenue Due to Market and Currency Challenges

Stabilus SE, a leading provider of motion control solutions, reported a 10.7% decrease in revenue for Q1 FY2026, totaling €291.1 million, compared to €326.0 million in Q1 FY2025. The decline was attributed to challenging market conditions in the automotive sector and currency effects, with a 3.7% impact from adverse exchange rates and a 7.0% organic decrease. Despite the revenue drop, the company confirmed its fiscal 2026 forecast with projected revenues between €1.1 billion and €1.3 billion.

The EMEA region maintained stable revenue, while profitability grew due to efficiency measures. Conversely, revenues in the APAC and Americas regions fell, the latter affected by a weaker US dollar and higher personnel costs. The Aerospace, Marine & Rail segment saw a 16% revenue increase, yet other sectors, like Energy & Construction, faced significant declines. Ultimately, Stabilus achieved an adjusted EBIT margin of 10.1% and increased adjusted FCF to €23.9 million from €8.9 million in Q1 FY2025.
