Singulus Technologies Rides Solar Innovation as Growth Story Draws Institutional Profit-Taking
Published on 07/12/2026 at 06:04 | Redaktion boerse-global.de
A dramatic operational turnaround in solar equipment manufacturing is fueling one of the year's most eye-catching runs on the German stock market, even as major funds quietly take chips off the table and a pivotal auction for a controlling stake approaches its conclusion.
Singulus Technologies closed Friday at €8.96, gaining 5.16% on the day, but the weekly picture tells a different story: seven trading days have clipped 17.04% from the stock. Over the past month, however, the shares remain 32.94% higher, and since January 1 the rally extends to a staggering 511.60%. At its 52-week low of €1.20 in October 2025, the stock has multiplied nearly sevenfold.
The rollercoaster ride has been driven by two distinct forces: a genuine recovery in the company's core business and the ongoing bidding process for the 16.75% stake held by Chinese shareholder Triumph Science & Technology Group. The auction rules require a single buyer for the entire block — no splitting — making the outcome binary for the shareholder structure.
Perovskite Potential Fuels Order Book
Behind the stock's ascent lies a sharp reversal in operating performance. In the first quarter of 2026, revenue climbed to €21.8 million from €16.4 million a year earlier. EBIT surged to €2.2 million versus just €0.5 million in Q1 2025. The contrast with the disastrous full-year 2025 — when revenue collapsed to €48.3 million and the operating loss reached €11.7 million — underscores the speed of the pivot.
Should investors sell immediately? Or is it worth buying Singulus?
The catalyst is the company's push into equipment for perovskite tandem solar cells, which promise significantly higher efficiency than traditional silicon panels. Order intake jumped to €28.8 million in the first quarter, and management has guided for full-year revenue of around €83 million.
In March, Singulus announced a strategic partnership with a global solar technology leader, paired with a comprehensive refinancing of existing liabilities. That new financing structure is designed to provide long-term stability and support further growth.
Institutional Investors Pare Positions
During the rally's intensity, several funds have trimmed their exposure. Universal-Investment Luxembourg reduced its stake from 5.19% to 4.84%, dropping below the 5% reporting threshold as of July 9. The move was disclosed via a regulatory correction under §40 Abs. 1 WpHG. Shortly afterward, FPM Funds SICAV also reported changes to its voting rights.
These reductions come amid extreme volatility. The annualized 30-day volatility stands at roughly 101%, placing Singulus among the most turbulent names on the German exchange. The relative strength index on a 14-day basis sits at a neutral 58.2, having pulled back from earlier overbought territory.

Technical Picture Points to Mixed Signals
The current price of €8.96 sits 36.44% above the 50-day moving average of €6.57 and a massive 190.24% above the 200-day moving average of €3.09. Yet the stock remains 19.28% below its 52-week high of €11.10, set on July 2. Market capitalisation stands at €77.58 million.
For the week ahead, all eyes remain on the bidding process for the Triumph package. The selection of a new anchor shareholder will likely define the trading range. The key question for investors: was Friday's rebound the start of a sustained recovery, or will the shares drift back toward their recent lows near the 50-day line? The answer depends on whether the operational story can outweigh the uncertainty of a controlling stake changing hands.
