Mobility
Rolling stock, rail automation, signalling and long-dated maintenance contracts. Revenue is milestone-recognised off a very long backlog: the quarter took EUR 7.6bn of orders against EUR 3.2bn of revenue, including EUR 2.2bn of Swiss double-deck trains and EUR 2.0bn of U.K. maintenance. It is the group's lowest-margin industrial business by a wide margin - 8.6% profit margin against Smart Infrastructure's 20.0% - and margin moves with project mix and provisioning, not with volume, which is why the guide is a wide 8-10%.

Assumptions & reasoning
- The lowest-margin industrial line by a wide margin: an 8.6% profit margin in the basis quarter against Smart Infrastructure's 20.0%, and it has not exceeded 9.3% in any of the eleven quarters shown. EBITDA margin of 10.0% is the midpoint of the guided 8-10% profit margin plus the 1.3 points of D&A net of PPA the basis quarter showed.
- Revenue is milestone-recognised off a very long backlog. The quarter booked EUR 7.6bn of orders against EUR 3.2bn of revenue, including EUR 2.2bn of Swiss double-deck trains and EUR 2.0bn of U.K. maintenance, so the near-term revenue path is contracted rather than forecast.
- No seasonal factors, and that costs the model something. The centred four-quarter test gives a signal of 0.124 against a worst window spread of 0.086 - the two observed fiscal fourth quarters stepped up 26% and 4.7% in euros, which is a direction without a magnitude - so the model prints a flatter fiscal 2026 Q4 than the guided year implies. The group total absorbs it; see the notes below.
