Summary
Nordex SE is a pure-play onshore wind turbine manufacturer generating ~90% of revenue from turbine projects and ~10% from a growing long-term service segment, with an EUR 18B+ combined order book.
Rationale
The 67% trailing momentum is directly supported by fundamental delivery — Q2 2026 EBITDA more than doubled YoY, margins expanded to 10.3%, free cash flow turned strongly positive, and a record 2025 order intake of 10.2 GW is now converting into visible revenue, giving the quality-momentum signal genuine earnings-acceleration backing rather than pure sentiment.
Material risks
- 1Policy/auction-pricing reversal in Europe or the US — Nordex's backlog is geographically concentrated and margin expansion is predicated on current auction pricing holding; a US tariff escalation or German permitting slowdown could simultaneously compress ASPs and delay project recognition, breaking both the quality and momentum legs.
- 2Capital-intensive blade facility ramp-up and working capital swings tied to large lumpy orders (e.g., 525 MW Türkiye) could erode the EUR 1.7B net cash cushion and reverse the free cash flow inflection that underpins the ROE signal.
