Drägerwerk AG & Co. KGaA: Preliminary figures Q1 2026: Earnings significantly above prior year

Lübeck, April 16, 2026 – Following a decline in the same period of the prior year, Dräger’s net sales rose by 6.9 percent (net of currency effects; nominal: 3.5 percent) in the first quarter of 2026, based on preliminary calculations. At around EUR 766 million, they were around EUR 26 million above the prior-year figure (3 months 2025: EUR 730.3 million). Both divisions were able to grow again: the medical division posted an increase of 5.4 percent (net of currency effects; nominal: 1.1 percent) to around EUR 418 million (3 months 2025: EUR 413.1 million), while the safety division recorded an increase of 8.8 percent (net of currency effects; nominal: 6.6 percent) to around EUR 338 million (3 months 2025: EUR 317.2 million).

Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) increased significantly to around EUR 18 million (3 months 2025: EUR 0.4 million). The EBIT margin rose to around 2.4 percent (3 months 2025: 0.1 percent). The main reason for this was the positive net sales development as well as the improvement in the gross margin to around 46.3 percent (3 months 2025: 45.8 percent). In addition, functional expenses fell by around EUR 2.7 million to around EUR 331 million (3 months 2025: EUR 333.7 million), partly as a result of a one-off payment for employees in Germany due to collective wage agreements in the prior year.

Order intake increased by 3.4 percent (net of currency effects; nominal: 0.5 percent) to around EUR 865 million (3 months 2025: EUR 860.8 million). Both divisions were able to contribute to growth: In the medical division, order intake rose by 5.2 percent (net of currency effects; nominal: 1.3 percent) to around EUR 480 million (3 months 2025: EUR 473.7 million), while in the safety division it increased by 1.2 percent (net of currency effects; nominal: -0.6 percent) to around EUR 385 million (3 months 2025: EUR 387.1 million).

Forecast for 2026
For the current fiscal year, Dräger continues to expect an increase in net sales of 1.0 to 5.0 percent (2.0 to 6.0 percent net of currency effects) and an EBIT margin of 5.0 to 7.5 percent.

The full results for the first three months of the fiscal year will be published on April 30, 2026.
