Guidance vs. actual
What Neste told investors to expect in each report, and what it then reported for the year.
| Metric | Latest guidance (report) | Actual | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| Capital expenditure, 2026 | About €1,200M (H1 '26) | — | Year in progress |
| Capital expenditure, 2025 | About €1,000M (9M '25) | €923M | Below guidance |
Guidance and actuals are as the company reported them, on the same basis (for example adjusted, or growth at constant currency). “Within guidance” means the actual is inside the latest range or meets the stated minimum or maximum; an “about” figure allows ±5% (±0.5 percentage points for percentages). For a direction such as “flat”, a change of less than 2% (0.5 points for margins) counts as flat. Guidance changed in a separate release between reports is shown from the next report onwards.

About these figures. All figures come from Neste’s published interim reports and financial statements releases, linked above, and are checked against them before publication. Errors are still possible, so confirm any figure in the original report before relying on it. Amounts are in millions of the reporting currency. Quarters reported only cumulatively (for example the fourth quarter) are derived by subtraction, and when a company restates earlier figures, older quarters on the previous basis are left out of comparisons. Margins and changes are calculated by Finpendium. This page is for information only and is not investment advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any security.
