adesso stock (ISIN DE000A0Z23Q5) was trading at EUR 58.10 on Xetra on October 2, 2026 at 9:41 a.m. CEST, while first-half revenue rose 13 percent to EUR 794.3 million, according to Finanztrends. The report also put EBITDA at EUR 45.8 million, an increase of 21 percent for the first six months of 2026.

Revenue growth meets higher profitability

The first-half numbers give adesso a clear operating benchmark: revenue advanced 13 percent, while EBITDA grew 21 percent to EUR 45.8 million. That gap indicates stronger operating leverage, although the company still has to convert the growth into sustained full-year profitability.

Finanztrends reported that management confirmed 2026 goals of 9 to 16 percent revenue growth and EBITDA growth of 31 to 35 percent. The stated EBITDA margin target is at least 8.4 percent, making margin delivery the next measurable test after the first-half increase.

Swiss contract adds long-term visibility

Adesso also secured a Swiss public-sector project for the EasyGov.swiss platform, with a maximum contract volume of CHF 51 million and a term of 12 years, according to Finanztrends. The contract links adesso to the technical renewal and continued development of a government platform, extending the business beyond individual project cycles.

The same coverage said adesso booked EUR 73.7 million in new orders in its Generative AI segment during the first six months of 2026. That figure gives the growth story a second operating marker, but it also places execution pressure on the company as AI-related demand moves from orders into delivery.

Analyst target remains above the stock

On September 25, 2026, Berenberg maintained its Buy rating and EUR 128.00 price target for adesso, as reported by Markets Insider. The target lies 120.31 percent above the EUR 58.10 Xetra price, a comparison that reflects the scale of the analyst view rather than a guaranteed outcome.

The published consensus in the same Markets Insider coverage was Moderate Buy with an average target of EUR 99.67. That target lies 71.62 percent above the October 2 price, so the market is weighing accelerating operating figures against the distance between the share price and analyst valuations.

adesso stock stays below its yearly high
