The strong Q1 performance and raised FY26 guidance by INDUS Holding are expected to have a positive impact on its stock price. The strategic moves by Betek to increase market share in tungsten products, despite raw material cost increases, signal resilience and growth potential, which could attract investor interest in the industrial and materials sectors.

INDUS Holding reported robust Q1 2026 results, with revenue increasing by 9.4% year-over-year to 442 million EUR and adjusted EBITA nearly doubling to 42.5 million EUR. This strong performance was primarily driven by its Material Solutions segment, particularly its subsidiary Betek, which successfully managed price increases in tungsten carbide and is actively gaining market share as smaller competitors withdraw. INDUS Holding also raised its full-year 2026 guidance, anticipating revenue between 1.85 billion EUR and 2.05 billion EUR and adjusted EBITA margins of 8-10%. The company's increased Working Capital, largely due to investments in tungsten inventory, is viewed as a strategic move to support future organic growth. NuWays AG maintained its 'BUY' recommendation for INDUS Holding and increased its target price to 37.0 EUR.
