BayWa Warns US Policy Shift Could Undercut r.e. Earnings, Prompting Review of 2028 Turnaround

The company says planned US cuts to clean‑energy tax credits may weaken BayWa r.e.’s returns, pressuring its creditor‑backed restructuring.

Overview

  • The Munich group disclosed in an ad‑hoc filing that changed US regulation could lower BayWa r.e.’s US earnings and affect the group plan.
  • President Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” would scale back and phase out Inflation Reduction Act tax credits through 2028, directly hitting US wind and solar projects.
  • BayWa r.e. will reassess its long‑term plans and earnings expectations over several weeks and may reduce forecasts.
  • BayWa said it may deploy countermeasures at the parent level to safeguard the restructuring, which relies on r.e. earnings and distributions.
  • Management still targets completing the turnaround by end‑2028, while a separate Munich prosecutor probe into pre‑crisis accounting remains open.
