Estonia’s Producer Price Index (PPI) shifted back into positive territory in August 2026, rising 1.4% month-over-month after a 0.6% decline in July. The latest data, updated on 21 September 2026, signal a notable turnaround in upstream pricing pressures across the Estonian economy.

The month-over-month comparison shows that while July’s PPI reading reflected falling producer prices versus June, August brought a clear reversal, with producer prices now increasing relative to the previous month. Such a swing from -0.6% to 1.4% within one month may indicate changing cost conditions for Estonian producers, which could later feed through to consumer prices and corporate margins.

Market participants will be watching upcoming releases to assess whether August’s uptick marks the start of a sustained producer price recovery or a one-off adjustment following July’s drop. For now, the data underline a renewed rise in input and output prices at the factory gate level in Estonia as summer drew to a close.
