30 March 2026, 10:57 Austria: Producer Prices Drop 1.4% in February.
Producer prices in Austria decreased by 1.4% year-on-year in February 2026, the same pace as in January. This marked the eleventh consecutive month of deflation, primarily due to continued declines in energy costs (-6.1% vs -6.0% in January). Price growth slowed slightly for consumer goods (1.0% vs 1.1%) and remained steady for intermediate goods (at 0.4%). Meanwhile, capital goods prices increased by 0.2%, after falling 0.1% in the previous month. On a monthly basis, producer prices edged up by 0.1%, matching January’s rate, amid higher prices for basic metals (0.7%) and motor vehicles, trailers, and semi-trailers (0.7%), which partially offset lower prices for electricity, gas, steam, and air conditioning supply (-1.0%) and food products (-0.3%).
