RWE, a major German energy company, has reported increased profits for the first nine months of 2026, driven by growth in energy trading. The company's adjusted EBITDA rose 35% to 4.6 billion euros, while its adjusted net income improved to 1.8 billion euros from 1.3 billion euros in the same period last year. RWE confirmed its earnings forecast and dividend target for 2026, expecting an adjusted EBITDA of 5.75-6.35 billion euros and an adjusted net income of 1.95-2.45 billion euros. The company anticipates its results will be in the upper range of these projections.
