The inverter manufacturer SMA Solar missed the expectations of experts in the second quarter. Investors separate from paper.
The company said that the result before interest, taxes and depreciation (EBITDA) was 15.5 million euros, the company said late Monday evening. The consensus expected only a loss of 4.0 million euros. The background of the deviation is depreciation on supplies in the area of home & business solutions. Without one -off effects, the EBITDA was 31.3 million euros and thus slightly above the previous year’s level.
In the first half of the year, sales fell from 759.3 million euros to 684.9 million euros in the corresponding period of the previous year.
SMA solar shares sack – support in the chart holds
Disappointing quarterly figures confirmed the recent downward trend of SMA Solar’s shares on Tuesday. However, the papers from the inverter manufacturer were able to make up for a large part of their initial losses of more than six percent.
In the late morning, the SMA Solar share certificates still had a minus from a good two percent to 19.78 euros. They were one of the weakest papers in the small -scale sdax, which fell by almost one percent.
SMA Solar had missed the expectations of experts in the second quarter. The operational loss was significantly higher than feared. The background of the deviation is depreciation on supplies in the area of home & business solutions. Without this effect, the operational result margin would have been at the previous year’s level, emphasized expert Constantin Hesse from the investment house Jefferies.
In general, the order stock supported SMA Solar’s business development, the specialist continued. With a view to the order input, however, it remains careful.
SMA Solar’s shares had only reached the highest level since August 2024 at almost 25 euros. Since then, the course has been down. The daily low at just under 19 euros is at the level of the end of June. From a chart technology point of view, however, it is positive that the price slide ended just above the 100-day average line at the beginning of the trade. This describes the long -term trend.
The balance sheet has also been impressive since the beginning of the year. At SMA Solar there is currently an increase of almost 46 percent. The SDAX has increased by almost 30 percent during this period. Over the age of two years, the SMA shares lost around 80 percent of their value.
