Alstom SA Receives Significant Order for High‑Speed Trains
Alstom SA, a leading European manufacturer of transportation equipment, confirmed that it has secured an additional order for 15 Avelia Horizon high‑speed trains from SNCF Voyageurs. The contract, part of a broader framework agreement established in 2016 between the French rail operator and the company, is valued at approximately €600 million. The order represents the fourth tranche of the partnership and will be delivered by 2029.
The new order follows the announcement on 26 December that Alstom had signed a contract with the Mexican Transport Regulatory Agency for the supply of 47 diesel‑powered train sets to be used on northern lines in Mexico.
Alstom’s share price on 18 January 2026 closed at €26.86, with a 52‑week high of €27.09 and a low of €15.85. The company’s market capitalization is €12.05 billion, and its price‑to‑earnings ratio stands at 39.33.
These developments underscore Alstom’s ongoing commitment to expanding its high‑speed rail portfolio in Europe while simultaneously diversifying its global customer base.
