Price stays below yearly high
The intraday quote was EUR 169.70, while the bid stood at EUR 169.68 and the ask at EUR 169.72 at the same Lang & Schwarz snapshot. The primary listing is on Euronext Paris, where Air Liquide is identified with the same ISIN and included in the CAC 40, according to Euronext.
The 52-week range from the primary-market quote was EUR 140.78 to EUR 182.26 as of October 9, 2026. The Lang & Schwarz price therefore sat EUR 12.56 below the high, while remaining EUR 28.92 above the low, a position that leaves the share closer to its upper boundary than its lower one.
Valuation and analyst target
Air Liquide had a market capitalization of EUR 107.7 billion and a P/E ratio of 29.01 as of October 9, 2026. The valuation is higher than the P/E ratios reported for Linde and Air Products and Chemicals, but the comparison reflects different currencies, reporting structures and earnings bases.
Jefferies maintained a Buy rating and a EUR 204.00 price target in a study dated October 5, 2026, according to onvista. That target was EUR 34.30 above the Lang & Schwarz price, equivalent to 20.21 percent above it, so the target comparison is materially wider than the 6.89 percent gap to the 52-week high.
