Andritz AG Experiences Record Order Intake in Q1 2026

Andritz AG, an international technology group, announced a record order intake of 3.6 billion euros in the first quarter of 2026. This represents a 54.3% increase from the previous year. The surge was predominantly due to mid-sized orders in the Hydropower sector. However, the company advises caution, as the quarter's performance may not predict future trends.

Revenue saw a modest rise of 1.7%, amounting to 1,790.6 million euros, while net income grew by 2.9% to 91.8 million euros. Despite challenges, profitability remained steady at an 8.2% EBITA margin. The company's strong performance was fueled by significant orders from Asia, South America, and Africa.

Order backlog climbed to a record high of 12.4 billion euros. The Pulp & Paper segment also grew, with orders reaching 1,005.8 million euros. The Metals and Environment & Energy sectors faced declines in order intake.
