Position opened. A buy today for the first time in a long time. Currently 2% of the portfolio, to be built up to 5%. In the long term, I don't think this is a bad entry price.

Does anyone have an explanation for Kontron's current share price performance?

$KTN (-1,98%)

$UBER (-6,53%)
$KTN (-1,98%)
$ZAL (-3,35%)
$LNZ (-2,32%) a look at 3 current and one potential new swing trade👓

$UBER (-6,53%) As posted a few days ago, this week the resistance at the deviation2 of the VWAP was once again too strong, BUT a former resistance showed up as support at the end of the week. That would be a good basis for another attempt in the next trading week. It remains exciting😁

$KTN (-1,98%) Similar to Uber, Kontron also failed at a technical resistance zone in the course of the trading week. However, a former resistance zone also proved to be support for Kontron at the end of the week. Here, too, a renewed rise could test the resistance upwards and run through to the divergence2 of the VWAP. This divergence2 has been proving to be resistance all year and could not be broken sustainably.

$ZAL (-3,35%) is also struggling, but a whole "floor" below it😅. The first lower divergence of the VWAP has been a battle zone for Zalando since June. At least a support from June held at the end of the week. Take profit targets remain in place. I currently see the downside risk limited at the divergence2. I.e. my SL is only below this zone.

$LNZ (-2,32%) With Lenzing I am again waiting for an entry. When deviation1 is reached, where there is also a HighVolumeNode, I am back in with a first position💰

$KTN (-1,98%) There have been repeated insider purchases in recent weeks. In terms of the chart, I was able to use the last few weeks around the VWAP (€24) to build up a position in Kontron again.

My position is in the portfolio with an average EK of €24.23. The first "take profit" would then be planned at the 2nd deviation of the VWAP (red line) around €29. The first deviation (yellow line) around €26.40 could provide downward support in the event that the strong rise of the last few days is sold off again in the short term.

Let's see how sustainable the analysts' opinion from yesterday is, this week Kontron can already be seen with +10%📈https://de.tradingview.com/news/dpa_afx:5df63bf3a33fd:0/

$KTN (-1,98%)

Kontron scores points with investors for hardly being affected by US tariffs.

The shares of the Austrian IT company rose by around three percent in the SDax.

Komtron announced that the Group's products continue to be exempt from the trade tariffs imposed by the US government on the European Union.

With its internationally positioned production, Kontron is able to avoid import duties in the USA for around 85 to 90 percent of its products.

"Kontron is one of the companies that should benefit from the tariffs imposed so far and gain new customers through cost advantages over competitors in the USA," commented Daniel Lion, analyst at Erste Group.

$KTN (-1,98%) Leverage 10 long

$KTN (-1,98%) take advantage of the tiny dip and if it goes down in the next few months I'll increase the position a little. I am satisfied with the business model as well as with the figures and the CEO. Hope the company can continue to build trust with the customers.

$GOOGL (-1,9%) and I may also increase my position if there is another small dip after tomorrow's nvidia figures. Because I'm a little envious of the position I've built up with my gatin 😅.

$NOVO B (-0,88%) so I will keep novo at 100 shares for the time being, I am very satisfied with the entry, profits. Nevertheless, if the price goes up again at 250kmh by the end of the year, I will take profits again and keep the profits I have made over the year in the form of shares. ✌️

Kontron is a good example of how future winners can be identified. Of course, this is not the only method of finding potential price rockets, but in my view it is one of the simplest and most reliable.

If a share price moves sideways for years, even though sales, profits and cash flow are rising steadily, pressure builds up over time. But at some point, the facts can no longer be ignored.

In most cases, this results in an impulsive upward movement and a rethink on the stock market. First fundamentally oriented investors get in, then active traders and finally the masses.

All you have to do is position yourself in advance and wait, gravity will do the rest

Kontron share: Chart from 18.08.2025, price: EUR 24.96 - symbol: KTN | source: TWS

The first upward impulse has catapulted Kontron from around EUR 16 to EUR 29. However, this could be just the beginning of a protracted rally phase.

The share price is no higher today than in 2018, although profits are twice as high and the quality of the company has improved as a result of the strategic realignment.

In the last financial year, Kontron achieved a 16% jump in profits to EUR 1.42 per share and has consistently built on this in the current financial year.

In the first quarter, sales increased from EUR 356.1 million to EUR 385.4 million and earnings from EUR 0.26 to EUR 0.33 per share. The order backlog climbed from EUR 2.08 billion to EUR 2.19 billion and the value of the project pipeline even increased from EUR 6.64 billion to EUR 7.45 billion.

In the second quarter, turnover increased from EUR 395.7 million to EUR 423.8 million and earnings from EUR 0.35 to EUR 1.12 per share.

Why investors should no longer ignore Kontron

After six months, Kontron has thus earned almost as much as in the previous year. The positive trend is likely to continue in the future, as the order backlog rose from EUR 2.08 billion to EUR 2.28 billion and the value of the project pipeline increased from EUR 6.64 billion to EUR 7.72 billion.

As a result, Kontron has raised its forecast for the EBITDA this year from at least EUR 220 million to at least EUR 270 million, which corresponds to an increase of 40% or more.

According to consensus estimates, earnings should rise by 50% to EUR 2.20 per share this year.

This means that the P/E ratio today is as high or low as it was at the low of around EUR 16 in 2024.

This suggests that the share price potential may not yet be exhausted. Added to this is a solid Dividendenrendite of 3.0%

$KTN (-1,98%)

Kontron AG reported a 7% year-on-year decline in revenue for the second quarter of 2025 on Wednesday.

This is partly due to the exit from the unprofitable EMS business of Katek and the deconsolidation of JUMPtec.

Despite the lower revenue, the company's adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 12.6%. This corresponds to an increase of 166 basis points compared to the same period of the previous year and an improvement of 18 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2025.

The Software & Solutions segment was once again Kontron's strongest division. Revenue reached € 137 million in the second quarter of 2025 (+8% year-on-year) with an EBITDA margin of 33.1%.

This segment's share of the Group's total revenue for the first half of 2025 thus rose to 34.7%, compared to 29.9% in the same period of the previous year.

In the Europe segment, sales fell by 15% to € 203 million with an EBITDA margin of 9.6%, while the Global segment recorded sales of € 56 million (-5%) with a strong margin of 31.9%.

Net profit for the quarter amounted to € 19.5 million, which is 4% below the previous year's figure and 3% below the previous quarter. Operating cash flow developed positively in the first half of 2025, reaching € 16.3 million after € -16.8 million in the previous year.

As a result of the sale of JUMPtec, which generated non-operating proceeds of around € 48 million in the second quarter, Kontron has adjusted its forecast for the 2025 financial year.

The company now expects revenue of € 1.8 billion (previously: € 1.9-2.0 billion), but has raised its EBITDA forecast from over € 220 million to at least € 270 million.

The revised forecast implies a significant acceleration to double-digit growth in the second half of the year. According to the company, this is to be driven by projects in the transportation sector, higher defence spending and the further ramp-up of wallboxes.

I'm almost too interested in the whole stock market topic. Over the last few weeks, I've been completely fixated on shares and finance.

Every day I've been following the posts on the platform, looking through all the portfolios and thinking about what to do next.

Sometimes I ignored the saying "time in the market beats timing the market" and unconsciously started gambling.

I thought about investment strategies every day. Sometimes I simply implemented crazy ideas, which I thought were stupid the next day.

My starting position was 4 ETFs. An All World, a Europe, an Asia and the Gerd Kommer ETF as mentioned in the previous post.

In the end, I decided on the $VWRL (-0,87%) . I sold each ETF to create 2 new positions with the total amount. $SESG (-1,79%) & $VNA (+0,53%) to open. The rest of the total amount was placed entirely in the ETF. I had been watching both individual stocks for a while now and had read up on them. I am convinced of both companies so far. Both make up 6% of the portfolio and will be added to later when the time is right.

In addition, I add $SIE (-1,14%) back into my portfolio via a savings plan. I save this position until it has reached a weighting of 10% in the portfolio.

Once this has been reached, I would like to take the same step with an insurer. However, I have not yet decided whether this will also be a German share like $ALV (-0,24%) or whether I will opt for a Swiss share like $SREN (+0,57%) will be chosen.

Besides, I still have stocks on the screen like $NVDA (-2,95%) | $AMD (-2,24%) | $GOOGL (-1,9%) | $BATS (+0,93%) | $KO (+0,52%) which I am actually convinced of, but am only observing for the time being.

Stocks like $KTN (-1,98%) | $RTLL (-2,1%) | $8001 (+0,82%) | $SOFI (-1,34%) | $6861 (-0,37%) are and will remain quite interesting, but I still have some uncertainties.

$BTC (-4,85%) will find its way into my portfolio sooner or later. Unfortunately, I don't have the money to open another position. So I'll wait and see

Brief battle plan:

• asset accumulation
• Higher savings plan + focus on one ETF
• Add or expand positions through dividends.
• Enforce 10% share limit
• Keep calm and don't become stingy again

Should work.

PS: the vacation pay thing was completely nonsensical.

Let's forget that, please :).
