Quirin Privatbank stock closed at €3.14 after earnings, leaving the recent 90‑day share price drift down around 9% looking more like fatigue than panic. The core message from the half year numbers is margin resilience. Net profit margin over the past 12 months sat at 12.2% compared with 11.2% a year earlier, even as net income growth over that period was close to flat. That mix of firmer profitability and modest earnings progress, on a P/E of 12.9x versus much richer peers, sets up a clear...

Laiqon stock closed at €4.88 after the H1 2026 release, capping a 7% gain over the past week and 11% over the past month. The short-term read is optimism. The headline in the numbers is different. Revenue for the half year came in at €23.2m, while the company reported a net loss of €6.8m and basic earnings per share of €0.31 loss. For traders, the recent price strength is the main story. For long-term investors, the key question is how this loss-making profile aligns with the multi-year...

DEFAMA Deutsche Fachmarkt closed at €19.85 after a tough few months, with the stock down about 14% over 30 days and about 17% over 90 days. The mood coming into this earnings report was cautious, yet the headline result is not about a collapse in the business. It is about a margin and profit squeeze that jars with the calm image of a grocery anchored property portfolio. Quarterly revenue sits near €8.9m while earnings per share dropped to €0.0545, which sharpens the focus on how much of the...

Fielmann Group shares closed at €39.10 after a choppy stretch that left the stock down about 12.5% over three months. The market has been fixated on the guidance cut and softer recent trading. The headline from these Q2 numbers is different. The company kept its adjusted profitability broadly intact on a record profit base while trailing twelve month earnings reached €2.48 per share. For a retailer that relies on steady optical demand, the story now turns less on this quarter’s wobble and...

SAP stock has delivered a solid 5 year gain while current valuation checks suggest the share price may still be below what its cash flows and market multiples imply. The Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) intrinsic value estimate points to meaningful upside compared with the recent share price near US$191. SAP has returned 65.4% over 5 years, which gives long term holders a reasonable gain to weigh against the current valuation signals. Recent AI product progress and ecosystem activity around SAP...

Verve Group Media stock has been grinding lower for months, with the share price down about 42% over the past quarter. Yet Q2 landed with a different kind of shock. Revenue reached about €160 m while the company swung to a quarterly net loss of roughly €7.5 m and basic earnings per share moved deeper into loss territory. The market has been treating Verve Group Media as a cheap, high growth ad tech play. This set of numbers put the profit squeeze front and centre and forced investors to focus...

IVU Traffic Technologies came into this earnings print with the stock already on a strong run, up double digits over the past month and quarter. The market has been paying a premium P/E of about 29x, well above European software peers, which means every new data point hits sentiment harder. The headline this quarter is not revenue growth; it is whether that premium price still looks justified against earnings power and net profit margin that sit in the single digits. Today’s move in the share...

Deutsche Telekom stock has delivered very strong returns over the past five years, yet the broader valuation checks still suggest the shares screen as undervalued on current market multiples. That mix puts the recent share price level of €28.48 in the spotlight for investors who focus on what they are paying for each euro of earnings and assets. Deutsche Telekom has returned 88.4% over 5 years, which puts longer term holders in a strong position and raises the question of how much value is...

As European markets navigate through global bond sell-offs and inflationary pressures, investors are increasingly turning their attention to dividend stocks as a potential source of steady income amidst the volatility. With the pan-European STOXX Europe 600 Index experiencing slight declines, identifying robust dividend-paying companies can be an effective strategy for those looking to add stability and income potential to their portfolios.

Earlier this week, Lockheed Martin and Rheinmetall announced a joint venture to produce attack arms and missiles in Germany, aimed at strengthening European defense capacity while preserving transatlantic cooperation. This move highlights how Rheinmetall is becoming more embedded in transatlantic supply chains, potentially reinforcing its role in Europe’s evolving defense architecture. We’ll now examine how this new missile-production joint venture with Lockheed Martin could influence...

In August 2026, tonies SE reported half-year sales of €242.93 million, up from €176.62 million a year earlier, but its net loss widened to €27.34 million and basic loss per share from continuing operations increased to €0.24. Despite the larger loss, the company reiterated its 2026 guidance, targeting more than 20% constant-currency revenue growth to above €760 million and emphasizing an expectation of sustainable and profitable expansion. With tonies reaffirming full-year guidance despite...

The AI rush around Nvidia, from its new $550 price target to quarterly revenue of $96.2b, is shining a harsh light on a less glamorous piece of the story. None of this computing power works without serious upgrades to power and cooling. That creates both potential winners and risks for investors watching this sudden build out. This article walks through three stocks exposed to that theme through our AI data center power and cooling screener. The three stocks in this article are just a...

EDAG Engineering Group stock closed at €3.11 today after a choppy week that left the share price slightly lower over seven days and over the past quarter. The market focused on another quarterly loss, with basic earnings per share of €0.15 in Q2, and treated the result as more of the same. The more important story sits on the balance between those losses and the valuation gap that has opened up. Trailing 12-month losses of about €40.3m now sit beside an analyst discounted cash flow value that...

Delivery Hero walked into this earnings day with a stock that has barely moved over three months and a price of €37.05 that screens as cheap on sales and discounted against its own cash flow estimate. The headline today is not a clean profit story. It is the tension between strong long term earnings forecasts and a trailing twelve month loss that still runs into the hundreds of millions of euros. For you as an investor, the question is simple: Does the improving path toward profitability...

Wacker Neuson (XTRA:WAC) is back in focus after reporting second quarter 2026 earnings, with higher sales and net income than a year earlier and earnings per share of €0.61 from continuing operations. At a share price of €23.0, Wacker Neuson has seen a 1-day share price return of 1.77% and a 90-day share price return of 20.67%, while the year to date share price return is down 7.82%. The 1-year total shareholder return is down 6.16%, and the 3-year total shareholder return of 28.15% points to...

With trade rules being ripped up, shipping lanes disrupted and war risk premiums back in the headlines, the usually quiet world of marine and cargo insurance is suddenly on every risk manager’s radar. For investors, that shift can create fresh winners as well as new fault lines. This article walks through three stocks linked to this theme that appear well placed according to our screener and current news catalysts. The stocks covered below are only a sample cut from this theme. The full...

VIB Vermögen stock comes into this earnings season looking bruised, with the share price down about 10% over the past month and around 14% over three months, despite trading on a low P/E of 3.9x. The headline from these H1 2026 numbers is not the income statement; it is the pressure on the balance sheet story that already worried income investors. Reported net income for the half year was only €0.987m against a backdrop of weak interest coverage and a large prior one off gain that still...

Aroundtown stock goes into this earnings season under pressure, with the share price down roughly 21% over three months and closing at €2.00 on Thursday. Yet the headline from the results is not about the income statement. The real story is the balance sheet and valuation gap. Management highlights an EPRA Net Tangible Assets figure of €8.0 per share and has been buying back stock at prices far below that level. The market is still trading the fear around debt and cash flow, while the company...

innoscripta walked into this earnings print with a stock that has slipped about 7% over the past week and about 15% over three months, despite trading on a P/E that sits below both peers and the wider European software group. The headline today is not the revenue dip in the quarter. It is the earnings machine behind the quieter top line. Trailing net income of €51.3m on €122.4m in revenue, a margin near 42%, reflects why sentiment is conflicted. The market is reacting to short term noise...

Friedrich Vorwerk Group (XTRA:VH2) is back in focus after reporting its second quarter and half year 2026 earnings, with higher sales, revenue and net income figures compared with the same periods in 2025. Friedrich Vorwerk Group’s latest earnings update has come alongside a 1 day share price return of 3.25% to €71.55 and a 7 day share price return of 6%. However, the share price is still down 15.53% year to date, while the 3 year total shareholder return is about 7x. This hints that recent...

Reports that a former private banker at Deutsche Bank (XTRA:DBK) has been charged with embezzling more than €600,000 from wealthy clients have pushed internal controls and compliance at the group into sharper investor focus. The latest compliance headlines arrive after a strong run in Deutsche Bank’s stock, with a 30 day share price return of 11.78% and a 90 day share price return of 21.94%. The 1 year total shareholder return of 18.27% and the very large 5 year total shareholder return...

It looks like Aumann AG ( ETR:AAG ) is about to go ex-dividend in the next three days. The ex-dividend date generally...

OHB (XTRA:OHB) was added to the Germany SDAX Total Return Index on 19 August 2026, placing the space and technology company on the radar of index trackers and benchmark-focused investors. Despite being added to the SDAX Total Return Index, OHB’s share price is around €194.8 after a sharp 58% decline over the past 90 days and a 19% fall over the past month. However, the year-to-date share price return of 57.73% and the very large 1-year total shareholder return of 196.86% indicate that earlier...
