Deutsche Post AGRaised 2026 EBIT outlook and expanded buyback authorization

Deutsche Post, operating as DHL Group, raised its full-year 2026 EBIT outlook to more than €6.5 billion after second-quarter revenue rose 13% year over year and EBIT increased 30%, driven by higher shipment volumes, yield management and cost savings. DHL Express returned to volume growth with weight per day up 9%, while Global Forwarding recorded 7% volume growth in both ocean and air freight and Supply Chain posted 10% organic revenue growth. Supply Chain also secured €4 billion in new contract value during the first half. The company maintained its €3 billion free-cash-flow target and expanded its share-buyback authorization to €6.5 billion through 2027, with up to €1.5 billion still available for future repurchases.
