RENK Group (ISIN DE000RENK730) sold its Slide Bearings business to Miba on October 22, 2026, while the stock trades at EUR 37.26 at Lang & Schwarz on October 29, 2026, 1.94 percent above the Xetra close of October 28, 2026 at EUR 36.55. The transaction shifts RENK's reporting focus toward continuing defense activities and sets adjusted EBIT guidance for fiscal year 2026 at EUR 240 million to EUR 255 million, according to RENK Group.
Sale changes the reporting base
The agreement covers the Slide Bearings unit, which supplies standardized bearings for electric motors, generators and pumps. RENK said the business will be reported as a discontinued operation under IFRS 5 from the fourth quarter of 2026, leaving Vehicle Mobility Solutions and Marine & Industry as the continuing divisions.
The sale supports a sharper defense orientation, but the purchase price remains confidential in the official release. RENK said the transaction is subject to customary regulatory approvals and that its defense business is targeted to represent about 90 percent of total revenue by 2030.
What supports the order outlook?
RENK's October 21 pre-close call cited a EUR 30 million follow-on order from Patria for TRACKX transmissions and a EUR 130 million KNDS contract extension for Leopard 2 vehicles. First deliveries under the KNDS extension are scheduled from 2029 through 2032, according to RENK Group.
