BASF (ISIN DE000BASF111) has an eight-analyst 12-month consensus target of EUR 59.50, 13.23 percent above the EUR 52.54 Lang & Schwarz price, according to Boerse Express on October 13, 2026. BASF's third-quarter results call is scheduled for October 28, 2026, according to BASF. At 3:11 p.m. CEST on October 20, 2026, BASF stock was trading at EUR 52.54 at Lang & Schwarz, down 0.25 percent versus the Xetra close of October 19, 2026 at EUR 52.67.

Consensus leaves room above the price

The EUR 59.50 consensus target implies 13.23 percent upside from the Lang & Schwarz price. The estimate is a 12-month measure rather than a forecast for the October 28 report, so the next results can test whether the expected improvement is arriving in the current period.

Boerse Express reported on October 13, 2026 that five analysts expected third-quarter earnings per share of EUR 0.40, versus EUR 0.19 in the comparable quarter. Two analysts expected revenue of EUR 15.70 billion, compared with EUR 14.33 billion a year earlier.

Stock remains below its yearly high

BASF's EUR 52.54 price stood EUR 2.51, or 4.56 percent, below the 52-week high of EUR 55.05 and EUR 11.06, or 26.66 percent, above the 52-week low of EUR 41.48 on October 20, 2026. Trading volume was 329,646 shares, while market capitalization stood at EUR 45.2 billion.

The price position is less decisive than the earnings calendar. BASF's second-quarter revenue was EUR 17.21 billion and operating income was EUR 892.0 million for the period ended June 30, 2026. The coming report will show whether that scale translated into a durable improvement in profitability.

Comparison with peers

BASF: down 0.25 percent, price-earnings ratio 7.87, market capitalization EUR 45.2 billion
Evonik (Xetra, EUR): down 1.69 percent, price-earnings ratio 81.05, market capitalization EUR 9.8 billion
Wacker Chemie (Xetra, EUR): down 2.90 percent, market capitalization EUR 4.2 billion
