Market environment
Geopolitical uncertainty, notably the Middle East conflict, weighed on customer investment and temporarily reduced capacity utilisation. European customers delayed decisions amid energy-price volatility. Management reports signs of an upturn toward the second half and growing outsourcing potential in Chemicals & Petrochemicals, Energy, Oil & Gas and Pharma & Biopharma.
Outlook
Bilfinger confirms its 2026 guidance: revenue €5.4–€5.9 billion, EBITA margin 5.8–6.2% and free cash flow €250–€300 million. Based on H1 performance, the company expects the EBITA margin at the lower end of that range. The outlook includes the Teknokon Group, consolidated since April 1.
Acquisition, financing and orders
Bilfinger completed the acquisition of major businesses of Türkiye’s Teknokon Group on April 1, 2026, and placed a Schuldscheindarlehen with demand pushing the volume to €450 million. Selected Q2 wins include preheating systems at a Dutch refinery, engineering and commissioning for a 320 MW hydrogen plant in Germany, and expansion work for Gübretaş in Türkiye.
