Price and range

The Xetra delayed quote showed a day range of EUR 47.75 to EUR 48.16 and a 52-week range of EUR 42.30 to EUR 57.32 on September 4, 2026. The same quote page put the year-to-date return at 2.56 percent, which leaves the shares well behind the FTSE 100 benchmark's 9.06 percent YTD gain.

Latest reported figures

For the latest reported quarter, MarketBeat said British American Tobacco posted revenue of USD 8.10 billion and EPS of USD 1.11 for the quarter ended July 29, 2026. That EPS missed the consensus estimate of USD 2.21 by USD 1.10, a gap that still matters more than the headline price move for income investors.

MarketBeat also listed full-year sales of USD 33.77 billion, levered free cash flow of USD 3.53 billion and diluted EPS of 3.38 for the trailing twelve months, giving the stock a forward P/E of 11.39 and a dividend yield of 5.85 percent.

Consensus stays constructive

MarketBeat's analyst panel showed a consensus rating of Moderate Buy with an average price target of USD 62.00, about 12.0 percent above the September 4 close of USD 55.37 on the U.S. line. The same page said only four research reports had been tracked in the past 90 days, so the rating base remains narrow.

Vape and oral brands

The group sells Vuse, glo and Velo alongside combustible brands such as Dunhill, Lucky Strike, Pall Mall, Kent, Rothmans and Camel Snus, making reduced-risk products one of the most visible parts of the portfolio. Yahoo Finance also listed tobacco as the industry and consumer defensive as the sector for the Frankfurt line, with 47,797 employees and year-end on December 31.

Closing stock view

British American Tobacco stock finished at EUR 48.03 on September 4, 2026, with volume at 45,537 shares and a market cap of EUR 103.44 billion on the same quote snapshot.
