CFO Ferraro to provide margin guidance on Grid Technologies; €1B buyback signals confidence, but CEO warns Germany risks lagging in AI infrastructure race.
Siemens Energy enters a critical week in London with its grid technology division squarely in the spotlight, even as a €1 billion share repurchase program underpins the stock and the company’s chief executive warns that Germany risks being left behind in the global artificial intelligence infrastructure race. Chief Financial Officer Maria Ferraro is scheduled to address the J.P. Morgan European Industrials Conference on Wednesday, followed by the ODDO BHF London Forum on Thursday, with investors keen for fresh margin guidance on the Grid Technologies unit.
The buyback, launched in early June, is the first tranche of a broader €6 billion programme running through 2028. During its opening week, Siemens Energy purchased over 237,000 shares at a weighted average price of roughly €158 — slightly above the current trading level of €156.12. Analysts interpret this as management signalling confidence in the company’s valuation amid a sharp correction from April’s record high. The €1 billion tranche is slated for completion by the end of September 2026.
That confidence contrasts sharply with CEO Christian Bruch’s recent warning that Germany’s slow permitting processes could derail its participation in what is shaping up to be a multitrillion-dollar opportunity. Global investors are expected to pour around $4 trillion into AI data centres over the next two and a half years. Anthropic, for instance, secured €35 billion in chip financing in mid-June. The energy requirements are staggering: each gigawatt of capacity generates annual electricity costs of roughly €1.3 billion. Siemens Energy supplies the transformers, power grids and generation equipment those facilities need, but Bruch fears that Berlin’s bureaucratic inertia will cede both speed and control to overseas markets.
Should investors sell immediately? Or is it worth buying Siemens Energy?
Operational performance, however, remains robust. The company’s order backlog stands at €154 billion, buoyed by a record intake of €17.7 billion in the second quarter of 2026. The Grid Technologies division, which benefits directly from AI-driven electricity demand and the global expansion of transmission networks, is expected to deliver the highlight of this week’s investor meetings. Ferraro is likely to provide concrete progress on the upgraded full-year guidance issued in April, as well as details on the reserved gigawatt-scale production capacity that points to sustained demand.
Technically, the stock is consolidating after a steep pullback. At €156.12, Siemens Energy shares have climbed 1.73% on the day, extending a recovery from the April peak of €195.54. The 200-day moving average at €136.96 offers comfortable support, while the 50-day average at €168.70 sits 9% above the current price — a sign that the short-term consolidation is not yet complete. The 14-day relative strength index of 45 remains neutral, leaving room for either further gains or additional downside. The next resistance level is the 100-day moving average at €161.10, which could be tested if the London conferences provide a catalyst.
Beyond the immediate focus, Siemens Energy is also positioning itself in the green hydrogen space. Partnerships with companies such as EWE have secured offtake agreements for roughly 10,000 tonnes annually starting in 2030 — destined for Salzgitter AG — with Siemens Energy supplying the electrolysis capacity. Whether Ferraro addresses that subject on Wednesday remains to be seen, but investors are likely to press for updates. The full third-quarter results are due on 5 August 2026, which will offer the next comprehensive check on the company’s trajectory.
