The news check keeps the assessment current.

General analysis — not personal advice.

HOLD Clear

Existing position may be maintained at current valuation.

Strong €78 bn order book and margin improvement are offset by repeated guidance cuts and negative cash flow.

Market sentiment Positive ↓
Trend: Declining

The market weighs strong order intake and margin expansion against repeated delivery delays and weak cash-flow generation.

Risk assessment Medium
Dilution: Low Strong cash position and positive cash flow
Jurisdiction: Low Operations in Germany and NATO countries
Execution: Medium Large order book but capacity challenges

HOLD is the call. Positive is the market mood. Medium risk means some things can go wrong.
