Aker BP stock (ISIN NO0010345853) was last at NOK 338.40 on Oslo on October 2, 2026, down 0.82 percent from the prior close of NOK 341.20. Analyst targets now span NOK 315 to NOK 380, leaving valuation expectations sharply divided.

Targets point in opposite directions

MarketScreener reported on September 22, 2026 that ABG Sundal Collier cut Aker BP to Sell from Hold and lowered its target to NOK 315 from NOK 325. The new target sits 6.9 percent below the October 2 price.

By contrast, Markets Insider reported on September 25, 2026 that RBC Capital maintained a Buy rating and a NOK 380 target. That target is 12.3 percent above the latest reference price, creating a NOK 65 spread between the two published targets.

Q2 profit gives the debate substance

For Q2 2026, ending June 30, revenue reached NOK 3.6 billion and net profit was NOK 521 million, according to Markets Insider. Revenue was 42.3 percent higher than the NOK 2.53 billion reported for the comparable period, while the prior-year quarter showed a GAAP net loss of NOK 324 million.

The operating backdrop therefore combines stronger reported earnings with a wide range of analyst assumptions. The October 2 price was 9.7 percent below the NOK 374.90 52-week high and 40.6 percent above the NOK 240.60 low, putting the stock closer to the upper end of its annual range than to its floor.

Management change adds a fresh date

Affärsvärlden listed an Aker BP company release dated October 2, 2026 announcing a new executive management team. The announcement gives the market a concrete corporate event alongside the competing target revisions.
