Bernstein sets EUR 111.00 target for Krones stock
Published on 10/13/2026 at 14:48 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWS
Bernstein initiated coverage of Krones with a Market Perform rating and a EUR 111.00 price target, as Investing.com reports. The target lies 4.72 percent above the EUR 106.00 Krones price at Lang & Schwarz on October 13, 2026 at 2:39 p.m. CEST, which gives the analyst view a measurable premium rather than a broad directional signal.
Second-quarter revenue rises
Krones generated EUR 1.35 billion in revenue in the second quarter of 2026, up 1.10 percent from the same period of 2025. Earnings per share reached EUR 2.23, compared with EUR 2.21 in the second quarter of 2025, while net income rose to EUR 70.5 million, according to Simply Wall St.
The operating picture is therefore one of modest year-over-year expansion, with revenue and earnings per share both higher but the reported profit margin unchanged at 5.20 percent in the second quarter. For investors, the EUR 111.00 target sits against a recent earnings profile that improved without a comparable margin expansion.
Price stays above October close
The Lang & Schwarz price of EUR 106.00 was EUR 1.00 above the Xetra close of EUR 105.00 on October 12, 2026, equivalent to a plus 0.95 percent move. The current quote is EUR 2.80 above the 52-week low of EUR 103.20 and EUR 38.20 below the 52-week high of EUR 144.20, a 26.49 percent distance from the high.
Trading activity was 3,233 shares at the primary Xetra listing as of October 13, 2026, compared with an average volume of 31,933 shares. The market capitalization was EUR 3.3 billion on the same date, while the price-to-earnings ratio was 11.46.
November date sets the next marker
Krones is scheduled to report third-quarter 2026 results on November 6, 2026, according to Simply Wall St. That date follows the second-quarter figures and gives the EUR 111.00 analyst target a nearer operating checkpoint.
