VAT Group AG · VACNY · Industrials · Industrial - Machinery
Research dated 2026-09-13: VAT Group designs vacuum-control components for semiconductor, display, photovoltaic, coating, industrial and research systems, then supports installed equipment through parts, repairs and upgrades. The case rests on whether record order flow converts into profitable sales and free cash flow strongly enough to justify a valuation that already assumes substantial earnings power.

Sources — records for every figure on this page (33 figures)
The 33 rows below are exactly the facts the evidence-backed sections of this page printed — the 10-second verdict, the MoonshotScore, price and market value, the five questions with their receipts, and the records behind this page. Known dates and sources are recorded on their own rows; an em dash or UNRECORDED tier preserves a stored observation without inventing either. The quarterly income statement is provider-standardized (FMP) under one row, and scale definitions — a 0-100 rating, the band ladder, the Piotroski 0–9 range — are fixed rather than measured. No number in those sections was generated by a model. The register does not cover quoted third-party headlines, the dated council readings, or the Frequently Asked Questions; each of those says where it came from where it stands.
"As of" is the date the value is true for where the source carries one — a quarter end, a filing date, a price close, the day the score was computed. A cached observation with no source date remains undated; the page publication date is not used as a substitute.

Fabian Chiozza (Jul 22, 2026): As mentioned just prior, the expenses in H1 are investments for our ability to deliver profitability in H2, and I'm confident that we will achieve the target I mentioned in the full year conference call of being in the upper half of the lower half of our guidance band. Urs Gantner (Jul 22, 2026): As a result, we expect 2026 to be another record year for orders, sales, and free cash flow, with higher EBITDA margin, and net income compared to 2025. Fabian Chiozza (Jul 22, 2026): Bottom line, whereas we will end up in the upper half of the lower half for the full year EBITDA, I would expect that EBITDA for the second semester will be in the upper half of the upper half of our margin band. | OFFICIAL | Company earnings call, transcript via Financial Modeling Prep (FMP) — Selected verbatim statements from the latest available call, dated by the transcript provider.
