Stadler Rail Up 0.9% After Berlin Deal

On 29 June 2026, Reuters reported that shares of Stadler Rail (SIX:SRAIL) increased by approximately 0.95% after it became clear that legal barriers to the delayed Berlin S‑Bahn contract had been removed. The German daily Berliner Zeitung indicated that French competitor Alstom (EPA:ALSO) will no longer pursue legal action concerning the Berlin S‑Bahn tender, effectively ending the dispute that had delayed the award.

With Alstom’s withdrawal, the city of Berlin is now able to move forward with its plan to procure 1,400 new trains. The order will be placed with a consortium comprising Siemens, Stadler AG, and the German rail operator Deutsche Bahn. The article also noted that Alstom’s own share price fell by 1.63% on the same day.
