SIG Group Holds Q1 Sales Steady as Profitability Improves and Outlook Confirmed

The latest update is out from SIG Group AG ( (CH:SIGN) ).

SIG Group reported a solid start to 2026, with first-quarter sales essentially flat at constant currencies and constant polymer prices, but down 4.2% on a reported basis. Aseptic carton pack sales grew modestly, driven by strong demand in APAC and IMEA, while Bag-in-Box and spouted pouch volumes declined amid continued weakness in out-of-home dining.

Profitability improved as the adjusted EBIT margin rose to 13.4% from 12.8%, supported by favorable raw material sourcing, efficiency gains, and lower depreciation and operating costs tied to its ongoing restructuring. Net income jumped sharply, free cash flow deficits narrowed due to lower capex, and leverage ticked up in line with seasonal patterns, while the company confirmed its full-year outlook and underlined its positioning to benefit from long-term packaging demand trends.

The most recent analyst rating on (CH:SIGN) stock is a Hold with a CHF13.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on SIG Group AG stock, see the CH:SIGN Stock Forecast page.
