Top Opportunities

Recovery to average hydro, wind, and PV generation levels in H2 2026 is central to VERBUND meeting its full-year EBITDA and group result guidance.

Top Risks

VERBUND's heavy reliance on hydropower generation exposes earnings to significant hydrological variability, as demonstrated by the sharp H1 2026 decline.

Critical Dependencies

Continue to Dependency Graph ↓

Austria's largest electricity generator, predominantly hydropower-based, whose H1 2026 EBITDA fell 24.9% to €1,061.5 million and group result dropped 35.4% to €518.1 million due to exceptionally poor hydrological conditions (a hydro coefficient of 0.68, 32 points below the long-term average) and lower contract prices, partly offset by higher wind, PV, grid, and thermal segment earnings. VERBUND guided full-year 2026 EBITDA of €2,100-€2,400 million and group result of €1,000-€1,150 million assuming average H2 hydro conditions, while net debt rose 35.5% to €3,817.4 million.
