MARKET ENVIRONMENT IN Q1 2026
IMPACT ON ENGINEERING SERVICE PROVIDERS
- IMF lowered global economic growth by 0.2pp to 3.1 % and by 0.3pp to 0.8 % for Germany.^(1)^

- Trade tensions, protectionist policies, rising energy costs and geopolitical fragmentation remain headwinds, partly offset by technology-driven investment and sustained public spending, particularly in defence.
- Global car sales show only flat to modest growth, reflecting mixed regional dynamics, affordability pressure and recalibration of electrification trends towards hybrids and combustion engines.
- Ongoing uncertainty drives cost discipline, cautious investment decisions and selective project delays across OEMs and suppliers.
- Mobility recovery remains slow and gradual, while engineering demand benefits from defence-driven growth and industrial digitalization-led efficiency gains.
Notes: (1) IMF World Economic Outlook April 2026.

OUTLOOK FINANCIAL YEAR 2026
The EDAG Group expects ongoing challenges in the mobility sector in the 2026 financial year, which will also be reflected in the first half of 2026 in the development of revenue and earnings.
Operational improvements driven by strategic initiatives and cost savings will result in a positive adjusted EBIT. In addition to the opportunities, the forecast is also associated with risks that arise for our customers and, consequently, for us, primarily from ongoing market dynamics and geopolitical uncertainties.

Revenue is expected in a range of around -5 to around 5 percent

The adjusted EBIT margin is expected to be positive up to around 3 percent

The investment rate is expected in a range of 2 to 3 percent
