TAKKT has been trading like a deep value story that just will not turn, with the stock down about 16% over the past three months and closing at €2.29 before this latest report. The headline from Q2 is not about growth. It is about another quarter in the red, with a net loss of €5.2 million on €228.3 million of revenue and a continued loss per share. The key issue now is whether the valuation gap that attracted bargain hunters still looks compelling once this ongoing earnings pressure is taken into account.

The bullish story on TAKKT centers on a higher quality revenue mix, better repeat business and margin recovery as private label, service and automation efforts ramp up. The latest quarter does not yet show clear milestones on those points. Group revenue of €228.3 million declined against last year and the net loss widened to €5.2 million, which suggests that higher margin mix and warehouse or freight efficiencies are not yet offsetting weaker demand and ongoing transformation costs.
Foodservice is described as a future growth and repeat revenue engine, yet the group remains loss making on a trailing 12 month basis at €129.04 million. That makes it hard to argue that parts, private label and new chain customers are already lifting earnings quality. The same applies to AI driven process savings and the Competence Center, which so far are not visible in group level profitability.
Compare TAKKT’s push toward higher margin revenue and repeat foodservice customers with how the street is reacting to a share price of €2.29 after this latest loss making quarter. See the consensus price target analysis for TAKKT to gauge whether analysts think this turnaround thesis is gaining traction or losing support.The core bearish claim on TAKKT is that weak end markets, slow customer reactivation and transformation cost drag keep earnings recovery muted even as management talks up higher value services. Q2 numbers largely support that concern. Revenue of €228.3 million declined against last year while the net loss widened to €5.2 million. Trailing 12 month net loss sits at €129.04 million. That is a very large gap to any clean earnings story.
Bears also worry that Foodservices remains fragile and that AI and Competence Center initiatives take time to translate into visible margin gains. With the group still loss making and no clear sign of profit uplift from advisory offerings, private label or automation, those milestones look missed this quarter. The share price, down about 16% over 90 days to €2.29, suggests investors are still treating the turnaround as unproven rather than de-risking the story.
With losses building over multiple years and the share price sitting at €2.29, the real question is whether TAKKT has the balance sheet strength to keep funding this turnaround without pressure to raise capital.
