Single Stock ReportEquitiesMaterialsIndustrials

ZKB reaffirms its Outperform rating and CHF 46.71 fair value on Gurit following strong 1H26 results and raised FY26 guidance. Management clarified that the CEO departure was voluntary and unlinked to operational performance, while wind sector demand in 2H26 remains robust.

Key Takeaways

  • 1.Management turnover is not operational: Former CEO Tobias Lührig left Gurit of his own accord, and internal successor Viktor Bernhardt is positioned to take over seamlessly.
  • 2.Guidance for 2026 was raised following the completed restructuring and strong visibility driven by high expected wind sector demand in 2H26.
  • 3.Potential tariff impact on Canadian production is limited to mid-single-digit CHF mn topline in the worst-case scenario, and subsea end-market materials are likely exempt.
