Technip Energies hits $28.3B backlog record despite Middle East conflict costs dragging margins down 350bp

Technip Energies reported €3.7 billion in revenue for the first half of 2026, stable year-over-year, but recurring EBITDA fell approximately one-third to €212 million due to operational challenges in the Middle East. The engineering firm achieved record order intake of €12.7 billion, driving backlog to an all-time high of €25 billion, up more than 50% year to date. Notably, 75% of new orders over the past 24 months came from outside the Middle East, demonstrating commercial diversification. Project delivery margins declined to 4.3%, down 350 basis points, impacted by conflict-related costs and provisions. The company lowered its full-year project delivery margin guidance to 5% plus whilst raising Technology, Products, and Services margin guidance by 50 basis points. Technip Energies maintained a robust balance sheet with gross cash of €4.8 billion and committed €300 million to shareholder returns through dividends and buybacks.
